Neat Feet

For an instant callus remover, fill a bowl or a foot tub with enough warm water to cover your feet and ankles. Add 1 teaspoon each of baking soda and salt. Soak feet for about 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the callous. Then gently scrub away the callous with a pumice stone.

BYOP (Bring Your Own Polish)

Next time you go to your favorite salon, I highly suggest bringing your own eco-friendly nail polish. Not only are you sure to get the color you desire, but you will be using a chemical-and toxin-free product. Not all nail salons carry such eco-friendly formulas. I’ve listed below some great companies that offer trendy shades made from ingredients that are friendly to you and to the planet.

Peacekeeper Nail Paint (iamapeace-keeper.com). Peacekeeper gets their line of fabulous shades by using natural minerals like mica, titanium oxide and ultramarines. Peacekeeper Nail Paint was ranked by the Environmental Working Group as the safest plant-based natural nail polish.

Polished Mama Nail Polish (polishedmama.com). This odorless nail polish was specifically designed to be safe for pregnant women. Removal is simple and safe as well with Polished Mama Moisturizing Remover, which uses ingredients like soybean, corn oil, and aloe vera extract.

Priti Nail Polish (pritiorganicspa.com): Priti’s long-lasting nail polishes are cruelty-free and made without toluene, formaldehyde and DPB’s. Their varnish remover is made from soy. If you are in New York City, you can stop by the spa for a mani-pedi!

Sula Nail Polish (sulabeauty.com). Sula is a scentless, water-based line of nail polishes that actually peel off in easy-to-remove strips when you’re ready to try another shade. So there’s no need for harsh polish removers with this fun, eco-friendly polish line.

Zoya Nail Polish (zoya.com). This toxin-free nail polish line, founded by Zoya and Michael Reyzis, is chockfull of trendy and vibrant colors. Many of the polishes offer a little extra sparkle for a night out on the town!
