To remove a splinter painlessly, dissolve Epsom salt in warm water, then soak the affected splintered-area in the warm salt mixture. It will draw the splinter right out. This works great on kids and adults alike who cringe at the sight of tweezers near their splinter.
If you have access to sand, kick off your shoes and go walking in it. Walking in sand is a great way to exfoliate the skin on your feet, making them baby soft (use a great moisturizer afterwards). Walking in sand also helps strengthen your ankles and calves, making you super-sexy from the knees down. What’s not to love about that?
Do you have crusty, dry, cracked heels? You’re not alone. Cold weather is more than likely the culprit, but luckily, there’s a fix for it. Slather your feet with an ultra-hydrating lotion or petrolium jelly, then put socks on. This is especially beneficial before a hard workout. You’ll notice a difference after the first use. If you need additional heel healing, continue this process (generously apply lotion or petrolium, then socks), and your feet will be baby soft by weeks’ end.

Nike is helping people get in touch with their inner shoe designer. After all, we want to look stylish at all times, including our workouts. One of my favorite forms of cardio is step aerobics, and for that reason, I adore Nike Shox. They have built in shocks in the heel, making them perfect for stepping, jumping, dance, running, etc. They provide maximum cushioning to the heel. My favorite part about my Shox is that I can design them myself, choosing from color, design, material, embellishments…right down to the color of the shoosh. Not only is Nike my favorite workout shoe for performance, but they also step up the fun by letting you design them yourself. Go To NikeID now to design your own kicks!

Gladiator shoes…..let’s discuss. Everywhere you look, you see gladiator-inspired shoes. Why? Why would you take a part of your body that you want to be small and dainty, and decorate it with buckles and brass half way up your calf? Why would you want to elongate your foot to make it look longer? Before you jump on the gladiator trend bus, keep in mind that this is (A) just a fad and (B) makes your foot look equivalent to Shaq’s! Who wants that? Check out some serious offenders below. This style shoe is heavy and chunky, making a beautiful dress look off balance. It’s just a highly unattractive look and I hope it goes away soon. Avoid straps and attention to the center of the top of your foot. When you have too much going on there, it makes your foot seem enormous. Unless, enormous feet are what you’re striving for.
