Why men need pedicures too

Foot care isn’t just for women. Men are on their feet all day too, and looking after your feet is a simple, healthy part of any good grooming routine.

A pedicure isn’t about how your feet look on the beach — it’s about keeping the skin on your feet healthy and comfortable and free of hard, cracked skin and calluses.

Stay comfortable on your feet

With thousands of steps a day, hard skin and calluses build up on the parts of the feet that take the most pressure. Left alone they can become uncomfortable and unsightly. Keeping them in check makes everyday walking, work and sport more comfortable.

Look after the skin, not just the nails

Good foot care means keeping toenails trimmed and clean, and keeping the hard skin on the soles and heels under control. Softening and gently removing thickened hard skin on the feet leaves them smoother and healthier.

Improve circulation

If you are prone to foot problems, particularly in the bones and joints, a foot massage as part of a pedicure can help improve circulation. It is also useful for anyone doing high-impact sport such as running, helping increase blood flow to reduce aches and speed up recovery.

Better hygiene

Dry, cracked skin on the feet is more prone to problems because bacteria can become trapped in rough skin. Regularly softening hard skin and moisturising helps keep feet healthy.

How Pedikur helps

Pedikur Callus & Hard Skin Softening Lotion softens thickened hard skin and calluses on the feet so they can be gently removed with the enclosed blunt-edged spatula — no blades, rasps or pumice. It is for use on the feet only; please read the directions and warnings before use.
