		<description><![CDATA[Want silky soft heels and feet? Here are some tips on how to get rid of and prevent dry and cracked feet. But these are the remedies. If the cracked feet is a painful problem for you it's time to turn to professional to seek out the cause and eliminate it. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Silky soft</strong> heels and <strong>feet</strong> look attractive. The open shoes show off our pedicure but they can also show off the cracked skin on the heels, which is not so attractive. Exfoliating and moisturizing dry <strong>feet</strong> can be enough to make feet <strong>silky soft</strong>. But there are also some ways to avoid dryness and prevent cracking. It&#8217;s also important to know the cause for cracking <strong>feet</strong>.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ourvanity.com/photos/5-tips-to-silky-soft-feet.jpg" alt="5 Tips To Silky Soft Feet" /></p>
<h3>Tip#1 Soak &amp; Exfoliate</h3>
<p>Soaking your <strong>feet </strong>in warm water for 10 minutes will soften the crackled and dry <strong>feet</strong> making it easier to get rid of dead cells. While the skin is soft take a pumice stone and scrub the heels, toes, and soles removing dead cells. You will feel as the skin is becoming even<strong> softer and silkier</strong>. Spend two minutes on each foot focusing on the areas where the skin is rough and dry. Avoid scrubbing too harshly, though to prevent skin tear and irritation.</p>
<h3>Tip#2 Moisturize</h3>
<p>Use feet moisturizer to after the above procedure and put on clean cotton socks. It&#8217;s best to do this before sleep then the moisturizing effect will be greater. You can also use vegetable oil instead of cream.</p>
<h3>Tip# 3 Opt for Comfortable Footwear</h3>
<p>Opting for comfy footwear can prevent the cracked <strong>feet</strong> or at least lessen the chance of having them. Comfortable footwear can feature heels but they should be wearable. The footwear has to sit comfortably on the foot without causing pain during walking.</p>
<h3>Tip# 4 Give Your Feet Rest</h3>
<p>Cracked<strong> feet </strong>can be caused by long hours of standing or walking, obesity, and anything that can put weight on feet for prolonged periods of time. It is important to give your feet rest to prevent cracked heels and soreness.</p>
<h3>Tip # 5 Foot Massage</h3>
<p>Foot massage makes blood circulation going. It also relieves strain after a long day.</p>
<p>Do the exfoliation treatment when you feel the skin is getting drier and rougher. It&#8217;s not only important to care for cracked <strong>feet </strong>but it is even more important to find out the cause and eliminate it especially if the cracking is severe and feet are bleeding.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have already talked about plantar callosity problems but how to help your feet if there are already some of these.</p>
<p>Let’s see the folk recipes of corn and plantar callosities treatment.</p>
<ul>
<li>The most effective and widely spread recipe: regular soap-soda baths. 2-3 teaspoons household soda, 1 tbsp cut laundry soap and 2 pints of hot water. The bath time is 30-40 minutes. Then scrape off the softened skin, wipe dry and apply a nourishing cream.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/feet-care1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3806" title="Feet Care1" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/feet-care1.jpg" alt="Feet Care1" width="450" height="293" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li> If the corns are painful then add a bit of manganese crystals into the bath: dilute the manganese crystals with warm water (the water should be barely pink) and add some table salt into it. Put your feet into the bath water for 15-20 min. Don’t wipe them after it. The pain fades away surprisingly quickly.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>This one can help to resorb the horny skin spots. Cold salt baths! Take 1 tbsp common salt and dissolve it with 2 pints of water. Hold the feet in there for 20-30 min. It’ll take away the pain and burning, and will soften the skin. The number of baths depends on the resorption process. It means that you should take baths until the compete healing.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-3804"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Boil soft prunes in milk and take out the stones. Put them onto the corns until they are warm. Then change them for the hot ones when they get cool. Undergo the procedure for 20-30 min. The corns will come off soon.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Steam out your problematic feet before you go to bed, and tie to the corn a piece of lemon peel with a thin layer of pulp. Repeat the procedure 2-5 days.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Scrub off the corn neatly.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Take potato, peel it off and grate it. Then apply the gruel onto the corn or plantar callosities covering them with some cloths. Wash your feet thoroughly in the morning and do the procedure again if you feel necessary.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/feet-care.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3807" title="Feet Care" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/feet-care.jpg" alt="Feet Care" width="450" height="626" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li> Apply a split aloe leaf for the whole night. Scrape the corn off in the morning.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Besides the abovementioned recipes the horny skin spot can be treated with onion. Layers of onion (or its gruel) can be put onto the corns, covered with polyethylene and elastic bandage. Leave it there for the night time and take away in the morning. Wash the feet, scrape away the softened skin and dry.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>The same principle works with garlic, but probably, it’s less popular due to its poignant smell.</li>
</ul>
<p>Take care of your feet!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is considered that one cannot have slender legs if she is petite and shorter no taller than 70 inches.</p>
<p>The smallest from the <em>Desperate Housewives</em>, Eva Longoria, has “the most beautiful legs in Hollywood” according to the US magazine proving the statement is wrong.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2912" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker1.jpg" alt="Eva Longoria Parker1" width="450" height="630" /></a></p>
<p>It isn&#8217;t important what height you are (Eva is of 5.2 ft herself), what Is important is what measures you take to make your legs look stunning.</p>
<p>Let’s discover the secret of awesome-looking legs of one of the hottest women in the world.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-2910"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>First of all, Eva practices daily walks. Taking care of her feet, she wears heel no more than 3 in.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2913" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker2.jpg" alt="Eva Longoria Parker2" width="450" height="717" /></a></p>
<p>Let yourself to fool about a little! Imagine that you are a ballet dancer and stroll your way home on tiptoes so that the body weight fall not on the heel but the on the toes. Your blood circulation system will be thankful to you!</p>
<p>To consolidate the achieved success, pamper your feet regularly with lymph drainage massage and get used to sleep with a-bit-lifted legs or practice some dancing far more frequently.</p>
<p><strong>Attention!</strong> If you have an inclination to the varicosity or any other vein disease, stay away from the sport activities that presuppose long standing on one spot or abrupt jumps – tennis, fencing, basketball and etc.</p>
<ul>
<li>Eva prefers leg swings.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2917" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker3.jpg" alt="eva-longoria-parker3" width="450" height="676" /></a></p>
<p>Stand still and base your weight onto the one bent-knee leg. Hold your back upright, and move the pelvis a bit forward. Don’t stoop! Swing the other leg ahead, to the sides and backward.</p>
<p>Then switch the leg. Start with the cycle of 30 times for each leg a week. Then you can increase the number of repetitions.</p>
<p>Swings from the lying position are very efficient as well. Lie down onto the left side and your lean will be the elbow of the left hand. Imagine that you are squeezed between the walls and your leg can move only up and down, no left-right.</p>
<p>Lift the leg as slowly as you can with toe “looking” at you. Then try this exercise for the other leg. Start from two sets per week with 50 times for every leg.</p>
<ul>
<li>Meals</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2918" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker4.jpg" alt="Eva Longoria Parker4" width="450" height="303" /></a></p>
<p>Hollywood starlet watches her leg skin condition either. She has taken final leave of the cellulite and excessive water after correcting the meals. If you want the same non cellulite slims that she has, then your aim is to stimulate the blood circulation.</p>
<p>For this purpose you’d better minimize the salt intake: salt the ready food in the plates, don’t eat the meals that were salted already (not by yourself). The top food of this list is chips, sausages and cheese.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2921" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/eva-longoria-parker.jpg" alt="Eva Longoria Parker" width="450" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>Pick out the products responsible for the chemical waste body cleaning: green tea, parsley, asparagus, fennel, red grape and the ones that help strengthen the vessels walls: citrus, fish, sea products and green vegetables.</p>
<p>Eva adores high heel but her legs always look healthy and awesome! So now it’s your turn to have the same! Stop waiting now and get practicing!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>No matter where you are – at work, on the beach or on your comfortable sofa – make sure you take proper care of your legs. In summer, even when you have a rest your veins work under big pressure.</p>
<p>When the temperature goes up to 73 F and higher not only the direct sun rays affect the condition of your veins but the air temperature as well.</p>
<p><strong>If you are on the beach…</strong></p>
<p>Don’t neglect the idea of sunbathing. Sun is great, but be clever using its rays. Sunbathe in the morning until 11 a.m. and in the evening after 4 p.m. – when the sun isn’t so active. Sea water can help your legs feel relieved. Regular swimming sessions and walks along the coast will be very helpful for your veins.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2871" title="legs" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/legs.jpg" alt="legs" width="450" height="225" /></p>
<p>Use a natural stimulator for your feet – walk on the beach, no matter what it is covered with – sand or pebbles. Apply cream or gel to your legs every day. And every evening after you have cleaned your teeth pour your legs with cool water.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2872" title="walking on the beach" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/walking-on-th-beach.jpg" alt="walking on the beach" width="450" height="292" /></p>
<p><strong>Warning</strong>: UV rays reduce the elasticity of the vein walls. So, ensure you are not exposed to the sun all day long.</p>
<p><strong>If you are in the office…</strong></p>
<p>Run on the spot if you have no opportunity to run somewhere else. Do gymnastics – take a tennis ball and roll it over with your feet.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-2869"></span></p>
<p>Take off your shoes and walk on your toes. Your veins need various exercises, so, wear different shoes varying the height of the heel.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2873" title="heel height" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/heel-height.jpg" alt="heel height" width="450" height="371" /></p>
<p><strong>Warning</strong>: Stay away from too tight clothes and lingerie, otherwise in addition to the vein spots on legs you will have vein spots in the groin.</p>
<p>Drink about 2 liters of water every day (or 1 glass each hour) especially if you work in a room with an air conditioning. This will prevent the development of dehydration and as a result blood viscosity and additional problems with your veins will be less possible.</p>
<p><strong>If you travel by an airplane…</strong></p>
<p>While flying a person experiences heightened hydrodynamic pressure on veins of lower limbs during a takeoff and landing. Then continuous sitting leads to static pressure. This results in congestion of blood and formation of clots.</p>
<p>If you have to fly long distances feel free to stretch your legs, walk along the aisle, or draw something with your toes in the air &#8211; repeat these at least once within an hour.</p>
<p><strong>Warning</strong>: Don’t drink strong drinks as they tend to block liquid flow in the organism.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Open summer shoes require our feet to have a perfect look.</p>
<p>If everything about the regular cosmetic foot care is clear, the plantar callosity removal takes some special skills. Today, I’m going to tell you about the most popular and effective ways against this small trouble.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/foot-care1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2722" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/foot-care1.jpg" alt="Foot Care1" width="450" height="275" /></a></p>
<p>Plantar callosity is the most spread foot skin “ailment”.</p>
<p>They usually represent coarse skin areas of blurred shapes. They are painful very often and can bother you for years.</p>
<p>Plantar callosity appears as a result of the tight and uncomfortable footwear.</p>
<p>They can also be caused by the uneven body weight distribution along the shoe soles.</p>
<p>For example, when you wear high heels constantly, the plantar callosities are formed at the toes beginning.</p>
<p>You should know that chronic plantar callosity indicates such thing as flat-footedness, that’s why it makes sense to visit an orthopaedist and after his recommendation purchase the corrective insoles. Fortunately, plantar callosities don’t affect the deeper skin layers and don’t have, the so called, “roots”, thus you can erase these defects at home.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/foot-care-set.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2723" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/foot-care-set.jpg" alt="Foot Care Set" width="450" height="451" /></a></p>
<p>Choosing the remedy in a drugstore.</p>
<p>Modern drugstores offer us a huge range of plantar callosity removals. It’s even hard to name all of them. But there is no need in this, I suppose, as the curative elements of lots of the medicines are similar.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-2721"></span></p>
<p>The most favorite component of anti-measures is salicylic acid. You can buy 10% salicylic ointment or the creams containing it in combination with some other active components – benzoic acid.</p>
<p>These acids have a softening effect. But take into consideration the fact that you should use these creams with caution avoiding the contact with healthy, tender skin.</p>
<p>That’s why you’d better steam out the plantar callosity taking an antibacterial foot bath.</p>
<p>Apply the plaster around the plantar callosity then put onto this place the ointment and cover it with one more layer of plaster. Leave it this way for 6-8 hours.</p>
<p>Then scrape off the softened horny tissues carefully using pumice or scrub. The fresher the cornification is, the fewer procedures you need to undergo through.</p>

<p>Preventive measures. Vegetable oils (linseed oil, corn or olive) are able to soften the skin preventing it from cornification. By the way, these oils are often in the formula of plantar callosity removal medicines.</p>
<p>But if your foot cream contains them, it means that your feet acquire soothing and protective care.</p>
<p>Saturate the cotton sock with such oil, put it on for the whole night, cover it with polyethylene and put one more sock on top. All you need to do in the morning is to wash the foot with soft soap and scrape if off a bit.</p>
<p>Repeat the procedure if necessary.</p>
<p>Castor oil does well as well. It stimulates the blood circulation, bears the vital functions of tissues and quickly softens the horny places.</p>
<p>Make a castor oil and glycerin compress (equal parts). Undergo a sock “operation”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Science is in the close collaboration with our every day life now. Constant researches give us information about the things we use or do every day without knowing if it’s good for us or vise versa. Recently, there was a study concerning Flip-Flops. In fact it’s very interesting and timely, as far as it’s summer outside.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2193" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels.jpg" alt="Flip-Flops Injure Us More Than High Heels" width="450" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>So, we all adore wearing flip-flops as they perfectly fit our shorts, jeans, skirts. Moreover, there are plenty of various-colored summer comfortable shoes. We feel easy and even relaxed having them on.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-2191"></span></p>
<p>But the research showed that they are not as good as it may seem. The podiatrists explain the point as the following: this footwear can cause aches and pains all over the body and cause more damage, than the accused high heels.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2194" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels1.jpg" alt="Flip-Flops Injure Us More Than High Heels1" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>One of the researchers from the American College of Sport Medicine says that the problem is that the summer footwear makes our feet feel defenceless.</p>
<p>It means that we alter our gait unconsciously thus putting more strain to the legs and spine just because we need to keep them on and avoid stubbing out toes while walking. The posture changes from straight to the question-mark one sometimes. That’s a huge load to the spine and neck.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2195" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/flip-flops-injure-us-more-than-high-heels2.jpg" alt="Flip-Flops Injure Us More Than High Heels2" width="450" height="457" /></a></p>
<p>Dr. Rock Positano from the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York says:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The major shock absorption occurs back on the heel, and if the surface between the heel and the ground is not supported it does not allow the heel to absorb shock as well as it should. Which means the foot works harder than it should and people tend to develop overuse injuries such as tendinitis, or in this case, lower leg, knee, hip and back problems.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>However, no one calls you for giving up flip-flops. Just opt for wearing them around the swimming pool or on the beach. The researchers offer.</p>
<p>I think that the most wholesome way to live is to go barefooted, sleep under the open sky and eat what you can find in the forest. I’m kidding!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every woman has her own Never-do list of the procedures in a beauty salon – exotic pack, creative hairdo, nail build-up, tooth whitening, piercing and so on. Some of you don’t have the courage to make an eyebrow permanent makeup and others don&#8217;t dare for bikini area epilation.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/salon-procedures-that-we-never-agree-to.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2162" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/salon-procedures-that-we-never-agree-to.jpg" alt="Salon Procedures That We Never Agree To" width="450" height="279" /></a></p>
<p>In spite of all sensible arguments and reasoning you are still afraid. But cosmetologists assure us that the vast majority of our fears arise because we don’t have reliable information and trust widespread myths. But if to sort out thoroughly, there is absolutely nothing to be scared of.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Bikini Area Epilation</strong></p>
<p><em>What are we afraid of:</em> first of all it’s somehow uncomfortable and shameful. Then, they say, that the skin at this zone is extremely sensitive and there are a lot of nerve endings that leads to the painful procedure.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/bikini-area-epilation.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2159" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/bikini-area-epilation.jpg" alt="Bikini Area Epilation" width="450" height="132" /></a></p>
<p><em>Why you shouldn’t be afraid of it:</em> everything depends on the method of epilation. No doubts that the most painful one (but the most effective) is electro epilation (destruction of the hair with the help of electrode that affects hair bulb). Laser therapy is less painful but uncomfortable anyway. However, the up-to-date techniques include cooling that helps to reduce pain.</p>
<p>Photoepilation do causes almost no discomfort.</p>
<p>Wax epilation goes well with the most desperate cowards. The speech is about aromawaxes and aromatars.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-2157"></span></p>
<p><em>Recommendation:</em> to minimize pain, watch your biological rhythms. It’s been noticed, that 3 days before and after the period woman’s painful sensitiveness increases significantly. Some cosmetologists advise to take a pain killer 30 minutes before the procedure.</p>
<p>As for the moral concerns, no one and nothing can help you to overcome the obstacle to bare in front of the unknown person! Just remember that you need it and the person is a cosmetologist. You are not the first one!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Exotic Packs</strong></p>
<p><em>What are we afraid of: </em>it’s pretty obvious that we are afraid of everything new and untried. First of all it’s hard to believe that giant slick and sticky algae can bring some pleasure when put around the body. Allergy risk is also frightening.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/exotic-packs.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2160" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/exotic-packs.jpg" alt="Exotic Packs" width="450" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><em>Why you shouldn’t be afraid of it:</em> in every professional cosmetology salon you’ll be tested on the tolerance of the new exotic procedure. If you are an allergic person, don’t forget to give advance notice about it.</p>
<p>Majority of body packs are accompanied with the aroma massage oils, music for relaxation, special lightening and drinks – all this provide comfort during the procedure and gives perfect results. If you are still afraid just question your cosmetologist about the pack in detail.</p>
<p><em>Recommendation:</em> if don’t venture to undergo the whole body exotic pack, start it by parts: first hands, then legs and etc. If you don’t like it then you can stop trying avoiding  uncomfortable sensations.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Teeth Whitening</strong></p>
<p><em>What are we afraid of:</em> there is an opinion that it’s a very unhealthy procedure and it causes lots of tooth and gum problems.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/teeth-whitening.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2161" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/teeth-whitening.jpg" alt="Teeth Whitening" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p><em>Why you shouldn’t be afraid of it:</em> that’s true that some whitening pigments destroy enamel. But the stomatologist explains: “there is only 1% of people with clean and not problematic teeth. Others have small or big defects.” The whitening is the “dessert”, as the stomatologist exemines the biological culture of the mouth, cures gums, cleans teeth from the caries.</p>
<p>Don’t rush to the stomatologist with the demand to whiten your teeth. Ask him first if your teeth can stand this procedure.</p>
<p><em>Recommendation: </em>if you have agreed for whitening, take into consideration the fact that you should steer clear of the coloring products: Coca-Cola, red wine, soy sauce, coffee, tea, mustard, red barriers, red sauces, beet and tobacco as well!</p>
<p>So, coming to the end, let me remind you one more time: be ready for experiments and know more about the salon procedures you want to undergo!</p>

<p>Una comments:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We all like to look after ourselves and we are often wearing little dresses and shorts for shoots, videos and live performances so we have to make sure our legs look their best!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Shot by illustrious beauty and fashion photographer Tim Bret-Day, Una, Frankie, Mollie, Rochelle and Vanessa look alluring and hot modeling for a range of micro mini-skirts and body con dresses and showing off their sparkling fuzz-free legs.</p>

<p>Frankie added:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we have already talked about the heels in the <em><a href="http://www.ourvanity.com/beauty/your-body/alluring-and-dangerous-heels/">Alluring and Dangerous Heels </a>article</em> and watched the shortcomings, let&#8217;s see what we can do to remain on stilettos without the health risk.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1417" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/high-heels-forever1.jpg" alt="High Heels - Forever1" width="449" height="366" /></p>
<p>Well, how to choose the high heeled shoes and to hold yourself wearing them?</p>
<p>To fulfill your every day tasks put on the low-heel-footwear – no higher than 2.4 inches. Middle and high heels are practicable only in case if you don’t need to stand on the feet several hours in succession and you have a possibility to take them off periodically to let the feet rest.</p>
<p>Physicians recommend being on the middle and high heels just up to 3-4 hours. Or at least try to take them off every 2 hours and massage your feet or perform some mini-gymnastics. For the sort of the limbering-up it would be enough to pull the feet and then to stretch them. Thus you activate the toe blood circulation erasing the effects of heels. It is also recommended to walk barefooted for several minutes to train the Achilles tendon.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1418" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/high-heels-forever5.jpg" alt="High Heels - Forever5" width="450" height="442" /></p>
<p>Weigh the pros and cons when choosing the footwear. Some trendy silhouette can simply misfit you. For instance, rough-flat-soled shoes don’t go well to the short girls as they make you look heavier. At the same time, too refined stilettos are a bad choice for excessive-weight-women as they cannot provide the proper balance.</p>
<p>But if you’re still long to purchase a pair of fashionable footwear, give yourself a real rating. Put on both shoes, stand still and try to lift yourself on tiptoes so that there could be more than 0.7 in between the floor and heels desirably. If this trick is too complicated, it means that these heels are too high for you.</p>
<p>Take into consideration the fact that your feet stretch and widen a bit as years pass by.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1419" src="http://www.ourvanity.com/images/high-heels-forever3.jpg" alt="High Heels - Forever3" width="400" height="407" /></p>
<p>Try to buy the shoes you feel comfortable in from the very first minute. The hope that the footwear will wear in is too fake and the process is too painful as it causes corn as a minimum. Choose the post-job hours for shopping because your feet swell a little by this time and you’re to have the fitting-you-best-pair likely.</p>
<p>Stilettos are stilettos! We can’t stand against the alluring heels but we have to learn how to wear them keeping healthy legs. So, girls, let’s clatter!</p>
