Ek lees so bietjie by Dellie en Boendoe vandag oor waaroor blogging gaan vir elke persoon, ek lag so in my mou vir Bottertjie … Whahahaha.  Ek staan toe maar op en gaan vat gou ‘n smokebreak buitekant.  

Buite staan ek en bekyk my voete so (wat in die pragtigste sandale is wat ek vir myself laat maak het toe ons in Vietnam was) en dink bymyself.  Jinne tog, hoekom is jou regtervoet se toonnaels so perfek en die linkerkant sin nie.  My linker kant se groot toonnael is sommer krom en LELIK en dit lyk of die toon ‘n ballon is.  Partykeer kry ek nog sommer ‘n ingroei toonnael ook en dit is SOOOOOOOOO seer.

Dit het my laat dink of ek die enigste een is wat sulke uiterstes het van een voet na die ander.  Hier is ‘n paar fotos wat ek gekry het.. Nee kyk, ek het eintlik niks om oor te kla oor my linkerste voetjie nie… 

Pedicure

A pedicure is a way to improve the appearance of the feet and their nails. It provides a similar service as a manicure. The word pedicure comes from the Latin words pedis, which means of the foot, and cura, which means care. It also means the care of the feet and toenails. A pedicure can help prevent nail diseases and nail disorders. Pedicures are not just limited to nails; usually dead skin cells on the bottom of feet are rubbed off using a rough stone called a pumice stone.

Sole-pampering regimen recommended by the American Podiatric Medical Association:Net vannaand gaan ek myself weer bietjie pamperlang en daardie lelike skewe toon naeltjie bietjie mooi maak!!   So ‘n lekker soak en dan bietjie naellak…  Ai, nou kan ek nie wag nie!! 

Step one: Use warm water to fill a bucket large enough for both of your feet to soak. Find a comfortable chair where you can relax and place the bucket in front of the chair.

Step two: Remove nail polish with a nonacetone polish remover.

Step three: Stimulate foot circulation and warm your feet by propping one foot at a time on your lap, then grasp the foot and begin slowly moving your thumbs from the top of your toes to the bottom of your heel and back.

Step four: Use a nail clipper to cut toenails straight across. Then use an emery board to smooth the nail edges by filing in one direction without drastically rounding the edges of the nail.

Step five: Soak feet in the warm water for at least five minutes. Raise feet out of the bucket and dip either a foot file or a pumice stone into the water. Next, use the file or pumice stone to gently smooth the skin around the heel and the balls and sides of your feet.

Step six: For extra soothing and softening, use a scrub and massage your entire foot and lower leg. The scrub exfoliates the skin by removing dead skin buildup that is often caused by wearing certain types of shoes. Remove scrub with a damp towel.

Step seven: Use a fresh towel to pat feet dry and be sure to dry between each toe. While you are drying, loosen your foot joints by cupping your heel with one hand at the ankle and grabbing the top of your foot with the other. Then rotate the foot slowly at the ankle a few times in each direction. 

So, ek weet presies wat ek myself mee gaan pamperlang vanaand om weer daardie skewe krom ballon toontjie mooi te maak!
