When it comes to beauty care one aspect of our body that we tend to neglect often is our feet. Your feet carry the weight of your entire body and if often one of the most abused and least cared for parts of your body. Foot care is very important in order to keep your feet healthy and beautiful. The skin on your feet is very delicate and foot skin care on a regular basis is a must if your feet are to look beautiful. Given below is a foot care routine, that is simple and is not time consuming and that you can follow a few times a week.
- The first step to good foot care is to remove the hard skin from your feet. You may have to use a pumice stone or apply cream generously on the area in order to remove the dead foot skin. Soak your feet in a bowl of slightly hot water. This will soften the dirt and the dead skin, which will allow you to remove it easily. You could use a foot file as well, rub your skin gently and rinse off the flaky residue.
- After this soak your feet for about 10 min in a bowl of warm water. Add some mineral salts or palm sea salts, along with a few drops of lavender essential oils that will relieve the aches and reduce the swelling.
- Dry your feet, especially between your toes. Trim the nails of your toes by cutting straight across the tip. Shape the corners with an emery board.
- Massage your feet with rich foot skin cream. Cup your hands on either side of your foot and with your thumbs firmly press the upper part of your foot while pushing your thumbs outwards.
- Gently massage the anklebone in a circular motion to remove any stiffness in the ankle.
- Remove the extra cream from your nails. Then place cotton wool tufts in-between your toes to keep them apart.
- First apply a base coat of nail polish and then apply a second coat if required. When you apply nail polish, begin from the middle of the nail with one quick stroke and then work outwards.
- Wait for ½ an hour before wearing your shoes.
Follow this foot skin care routine a few times a week and you will have lovely looking feet.

The sharp cat eye look made the runaway this Fall. Cat eyes are sexy and seductive and suits almost everyone. Creating the perfect cat eye look is all about using and properly applying eyeliner or eye pencil to create a hard line around the eye.
How to apply your makeup to create cat eye look:
Step One. Apply an eyeshadow base
The best way to make your eye shadows stay put on for longer is applying an eyeshadow base. Eyeshadow bases are nude eye base that glides on over the eyelid and create a perfect base for the eye shadow application. The bases stop your shadows from smudging, streaking and creasing by increasing the lasting-power of your shadows. A good eyeshadow base will not only prevent your shadows from creasing but it will also aid in blending the eyeshadows to perfection.They intensify your shadow and make it stay put on for longer. To apply an eyeshadow base dab on lightly and blend evenly over the entire lid using a brush or your fingertips. The application of eyeshdow is as usual.
Step Two. Use eye liner You can create the cat eye look simply by using liquid eyeliner or eye pencil to line your lash line. The professional makeup artists usually use liquid eyeliner as it creates a thicker line but most of the women find applying liquid eyeliner very difficult that’s why you can use eye pencil which is much easier to apply. Remember: if you want to create a cat eye look you should use black or brown colors as they look best. So the first thing you should decide is whether to use liquid eyeliner, gel eye liner or eye pencil.
Line your eyes
Tip your head back and look down into a mirror. Use sharp eyeliner and start with the inner corners of your eyes. Dot along the root of your lashes moving from the inner corners of the eyes outwards. Make sure you follow the natural curve of the eye. This time the line should be thicker and “harder“ - gradually make the line thicker in order to create the cat eye look. Use a flat eyeshadow brush and smudge the line slightly to soften the effect. It’s essential to line your upper lid, carefully extending the liner up a bit past the eye (quarter of an inch should be enough). Remember: you should make the line as close to the lashes as possible. Line your lower lash line with a black or brown eye liner creating a very small line.
Step Three. * Apply eyeshadows
It’s your decision whether to apply eyeshadows or not. The traditional cat eye look doesn’t involve any eyeshadows at all but today the smoky cat eye look is very popular amongst the younger women as it looks very sexy, seductive and classy. If you are going to use powder eye shadows apply them with the help of a damp makeup brush. Apply colored eye shadows along the socket and outer corner of the lid in order to create definition and contour. Look for darker shades as it will add more definition to your eyes. Use two or three eyeshadow colors and apply them very carefully. Blend the colors very carefully using a soft, tapered eyeshadow brush. Again go a bit wider when going to the outward part of the eye.
