Smooth *Summer* Feet

It's that time of year!!  Summer!!


Fun in the sun - sand, water, BBQ's, swimsuits and sandals! 

Wait....Sandals??
What about our WINTER feet that have been stuck inside closed toe shoes and boots??
Dry, rough feet are NOT cute in sandals -
no matter what pretty color nail polish you pick out!!


Well, you can pay for a pedicure of course, and what lady doesn't love a good pedi?!  But for those of us who spend most of our time at home with children - you know, wake up and do everything revolving around your precious babies then at the end of the day realize you barely ate or had a bathroom break...well, you more than likely don't have time for a pedicure!

And you of course can try products that "shave" your rough skin down...like those egg-shaped deals that literally shave your skin off.  (It doesn't hurt, but think about it....ewww!)

Well here's what I do:

All you need are 2 products that will last you a long time!


That's right!  This is all you need for Smooth Summer Feet!

I use Stridex Naturally Clear on my FEET after a nice shower or bath. 2 pads are needed (one per foot).  Then slather on some nice skin care lotion.  This is just Equate brand from Wal-Mart - doesn't have to be expensive!  And I prefer non-scented on my feet!  (Even though, yes - I am a Scentsy consultant and Scentsy has AMAZING smelling body lotions that I use on my body.  I simply prefer non-scented on my feet!)


The acne pads slough off dead skin and adds a little medication which kills bacteria.
The lotion, of course, adds moisture!

Please note: ANY acne pad will work.  HOWEVER, Stridex Naturally Clear does not have alcohol - which I assume would DRY your feet even further.  That is the reason I choose the Naturally Clear.  :)  If all you have are acne pads with alcohol, give it a try still and be sure to moisturize those feet afterwards!

I at first did this for a week, and now that my feet look and feel better, I keep it up every few days as I feel necessary!


Now that your feet are SMOOTH -
what are your favorite nail polish colors for summer?? 
Mine this year are bright purples, blues and of course PINK!
