Foot scrub should be an integral part of daily care, especially for people who struggle with skin prone to callousness. Unpleasant to the touch thickened epidermis most often appears on the heels and looks very unsightly. In addition, they are unpleasant to the touch and also introduce a certain discomfort when functioning. We reach for foot scrubs most often in spring and summer, when we expose our legs in summer shoes. However, to take care of the health of your feet and their beautiful appearance, it is worth using this type of cosmetic all year round. Importantly, performing an effective peeling treatment does not require you to visit a beautician. You can perform it yourself, at home. All you need is to stock up on a leg scrub. Therefore, do not delay and check our offer, where you will find the highest quality products for effective foot care.
Types of foot scrubs
Depending on the level of keratinized skin on your feet, you have several types of foot scrubs to choose from.
- Coarse-grained or granular foot scrub - has a characteristic texture that contains large or smaller particles. Their purpose is to soften the skin of the feet and rid it of any lesions indicating local thickening. The way to use this type of scrub is extremely simple - just put a small amount of it on the palm of your hand, and then in a circular motion massage the place where keratoses are visible. Foot scrubbing should be performed for several minutes.
- Enzymatic foot scrub - this product differs from the above in that it does not require intensive rubbing into the skin. It removes any thickening and keratinized layer of skin extremely efficiently, and, most importantly, it does it in a virtually imperceptible way. All you have to do is apply the enzyme scrub to thoroughly clean and dry skin. You leave the cosmetic on your feet for about 15 minutes, after which you wash it off thoroughly with water.
- Acid foot scrub - as the name suggests, it bases its action on effective exfoliation of the skin, thanks to the acids contained in it. As with an enzyme scrub, you apply the cosmetic to your feet, leave it on for about 15 minutes, and then rinse with warm water.
All the above-mentioned types of foot scrubs show high effectiveness, provided you use them regularly. They will make the skin of your feet soft, delicate, and extremely smooth. If, on the other hand, you are faced with very extensive and advanced thickening, then it is worth reaching for products that support daily care. These can be foot accessories available in our offer in the form of a heel file or foot creams, which will further moisturize and nourish stressed skin.
What active ingredients should a good foot scrub contain?
For a foot scrub to bring the desired results, it is worth paying attention to the active ingredients it contains in its composition. Depending on the degree of keratinization of the epidermis, you can easily choose the ideal cosmetic, tailored to the individual needs of your skin. Coarse-grained or granular foot scrubs are usually created from salt grains, sugar, and in some cases even rice. The hard particles of these natural products sensationally remove all keratoses. Right next to them, foot scrubs also use acids, such as glycolic and salicylic acids. It is especially these two types of acids that do an excellent job of exfoliating dead skin. Grape seeds and Shea butter also often appear in foot scrubs. They have a strong moisturizing effect, as well as a smoothing effect. On the other hand, peppermint oil appearing in some products of this type will provide you with a feeling of refreshment and pleasant cooling. All these active substances are most often used in the production of leg scrubs.
Remember that conscious care is based primarily on knowledge of the composition of cosmetics. With knowledge of the properties of specific ingredients, you are sure to choose the perfect scrub for you, which will meet your expectations.
