Preparing Feet for Fall
I noticed a definite nip in the air this morning, letting me know that fall is here. Of course the falling oak leaves in the front yard should have been an indication a couple of weeks ago, but I decided to blame it on the California draught. Yes, I was in denial, but who would blame me? I am not a big fan of winter AT ALL and Fall is the segway to winter.
With Fall comes another change in the environment that effects how we care for our skin. Our tootsies are about to leave those sandals and flip flops behind and be hidden away in boots and closed toe shoes for the next 5 or 6 months (depending on where you live). Out of site is out of mind and for most of us that means neglecting our feet for the season. One benefit of hiding those tootsies away is that unlike Spring and Summer, cracked heals are usually not a problem. However, you will begin to see an increase in dryness, fungus, ingrown nails, callouses and blisters/bunions.
Over the next week, I’ll cover natural ways to battle these winter toe blues. For now, take time to enjoy the beautiful scenery changing around you.
