Put Your Best Foot Forward
from TOPS May 2024
As we welcome warmer temps with open arms, we must also embrace the reality of sandal season. Instead of feeling funny about our feet, let’s treat ourselves to some local and at-home foot care to help you step confidently into the season.
At-home care
A good foot detox has been found to relieve aches, support blood circulation, and even improve stress levels. Detoxes can look like an Epsom salt bath, foot mask, or in-shower scrub.
We love all of the Epsom Salt Soaking Solutions from Dr. Teal's, but the Relax and Relief formula ($15) takes the cake for soothing achy feet!
If you fear odor is your issue, try a natural foot powder, like the T for Toes formula from Lush Cosmetics ($12).
From the experts
Who doesn’t love a relaxing pedi? Lavish Nails Organic Spa believes if your feet are uncomfortable, your whole body will be too. Treat yourself to their signature Milk & Honey Pedicure and a bright springy polish to keep your whole self happy. If your feet need a little extra lovin, Lexington Podiatry offers a wide range of surgical and non-surgical remedy options for heels, arches, toes, and toenails.
Keep your feet happy and healthy with the Intensive Dry Skin and Calluses Treatment (Mod Pod, $132). Toenails need some repair? Try their Total Nail Renewal Oil to get back on track (Mod Pod, $36).
Preventative care
When you’re not strutting those new slides, go for a stable sneaker to keep those feet supported. While these styles are made for running, we like to keep a pair of these around for when we'll be on our feet all day or have more errands to run than hours in the day!
Eyes on the prize
By investing in your feet now, you can stride confidently in style later! These are a few of our favorite summer slip-ons to keep you on the move. Sayonara sandal season jitters!
