Toe Cleavage

What have the Spice Girls, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Katie Price, Demi Moore, Celine Dion and Nicole Kidman all got in common? The answer is that, unlike their faces, their feet reflect the ageing process and a little too much time spent crammed into killer shoes!! A quick flick through Hello, Heat or OK magazine will show feet that are desperate for attention, particularly around the toe cleavage area.

Toe cleavage (the crack between the big toes and the second) shown, to great effect, in sky scraper, designer shoes is a sexy hint of what lies above. However the dry crepey skin on show from some stars hints more at neglect, extreme dieting and chemical tanning agents than glamour.

Rehydrating and conditioning the feet is a great pre-holiday pampering treat that you can do at home and is a great girls night in treat with a friend.

Arrange tissues, a bowl and two soft polythene sandwich bags on a table next to your chair and place a towel on the floor. Warm two tablespoonful of premium almond or oil to a comfortable temperature (putting it in a dish over a bowl of hot water from the tap is usually enough). Add two drops of spearmint essential oil, one drop of tea tree and two drops of lime. Mix it with your hands and apply liberally to the feet from the ankles down concentrating on the toe cleavage area. Slip the polythene bags onto your feet, over the wet oil. Then wrap the towel round until you have a warm parcel and rest for 30 minutes (which just happens to be the perfect duration to watch the news or a favourite soap opera!!).

For maximum effect rest your feet on a warm wheat bag for additional heat. Afterwards remove the bags, tissue off the residue and gently massage the area. You will find that the oil has penetrated quite deeply and your skin, particularly around the toe cleavage area, will be soft, supple and extremely sexy. What’s more those killer heels will feel infinitely more comfortable.

This treatment also helps avoid unsightly heel cracks and will keep athletes foot at bay!! Click on any of the links to order some of my premium essential oils and I hope your feet are more gorgeous than the celebrities soon!!
