Summer is synonymous with sandals, open-toed shoes and walks on the beach, but they expose our feet to high heat and hot surfaces. This can lead to dryness, rough patches, and various issues that will affect how your feet look and feel.

However, if you're dealing with dry skin or calluses, a pumice stone or a foot file may be a better option - just remember to apply less pressure when working over soft skin and more when dealing with calluses, so you don't damage your skin. That's why moisturising your feet, especially your heels, should be a regular part of your routine and not something you do only when they feel dry or calluses form.

Sun protection is not only about the skin. Your nails are made of protein compounds that need some extra protection, as they're just as vulnerable to the damage from UV rays as your skin is. On top of that, your feet will most likely also be exposed to dozens of tiny hazardous particles your eye can't catch, which can cause micro-tears or wounds that, even when not deep, will wreck the health of your feet.
