Our recent blog posts on winter foot care discussed tips for proper maintenance and finding supportive winter footwear. The former touched on one of the most important parts of keeping your feet healthy when it’s cold outside: skin care.
Think about how you change your skincare routine for the dry heat and harsher winter conditions. Maybe you keep a hand lotion at the kitchen sink after washing dishes – it could be there year-round, but you likely use it more, or more of it, in the winter. Perhaps you use cuticle oil on your fingernails and deep conditioner or oils in your hair. You likely use lip balm more often in the winter and integrate more hydrating face masks, oils, or creams into your day or week.
Now think about what you do for your feet in the winter. Kudos to you if you’re doing anything at all! Feet are often the unsung heroes of our bodies, carrying us around all day but forgotten during our self-care regimens.
Skin care for your feet doesn’t have to be lavish or time-consuming – though we highly recommend indulging if you are inclined. The foot skincare tips we’ve provided below range from basic to more spa-like. Add any of these home care treatments, even one of them, to your daily or weekly winter skincare routine, and you will reap the benefits. Your feet will carry you through the winter with ease.
