The change in weather brings with it many changes in skin and body, and extra care is thus required, which I will discuss once the change sets in. for this issue I would like to share something
else with you. I was recently invited to speak at a seminar on personal
grooming and hygiene at a boys college. First of all I was surprised to
see the number of students who had enrolled to attend the seminar. Then
another surprise came by when many of them acknowledged that they read
my column regularly and follow some easy tips. Needless to say, it was
a pleasant surprise.
I also noticed that boys today want to be groomed and look nice. Most of the boys present sported chic hairdos with fancy sideburns, while most of them had also
colored or highlighted their tresses. Following my speech when I met
them in person,
I was bombarded with questions on personal grooming. Most of the boys
face dandruff problems, acne and are unaware of how to deal with the
hyginene of their hands and feet. The latter being the most neglected
part of their body and some admitted that they neglect their foot
hygiene as if feet are not their own. Since students have to wear shoes
and socks all the time, they faced the problem of foot odour, sweaty
feet, corns and discoloration of foot skin. They confessed that when
they take their shoes off at home, their families run here and there to
save themselves.
I was glad that finally boys realize that this is an issue that needs to be tackled rather than lived with. Foot care is as important as hair care and facial skincare. Neglected feet eventually become a
nuisance for you. They not only smell bad but look ugly when bare or in
an open shoe. If you ignore them for a long time then they reach a
point where you can do nothing about them. Especially when the foot
skin becomes hard with permanent dryness or when dark patches appear on
it due to perpetual neglect.
Understandably this issue needs to be addressed properly. You have to spend some time and money if you want to have good feet. You must try obtaining at least a few of the following items for
healthy and soft feet; refreshing foot spray, anti-per spirant foot
spray, foot cream, odour control foot spray, intensive moisturizing
cream, hell guard cream and Vaseline. This may cost a bit but believe
me the regular use of these products will make you the happiest person
in this world, with clean and healthy feet. Refreshing foot spray is a
fast relief for hot and tired feet. It instantly soothes and cools
tired aching feet and leaves them refreshed and deodorized. It can be
applied on bare feet or through socks, just let it dry before putting
on footwear.
