Soak your feet in warm water, to which you should add some shampoo and any vegetable oil. You can also add coarse salt. Let the feet soak for 15 minutes.  Then clean the nails with the brush. It should not be too hard. Use the pumice stone on the heels and side of the soles. You can also scrub the entire feet with a rough towel or loofah.When this is done, wash the feet in clean water. Dry with a towel. 

If your nails need cutting, better to use a nail clipper. Nails should be cut squarely across. Use the emery board to smoothen them. In-growing toenails, especially, should not be rounded, as they would tend to grow into the flesh even more. Do not cut the cuticles of the toenails. They should be creamed and pushed back gently with a cotton bud. 

Apply cream on the feet and nails and massage it into the skin, working it into the cuticles. Do not use sharp instruments to clean the nails. Pay special attention to the heels, applying more cream if needed. Use upward strokes for the massage, from the toes towards the ankles. Wipe the feet with a moist towel.

Foot Soak:  In one-fourth bucket of warm water, add half cup of coarse salt and a half cup of lemon juice. If your feet tend to sweat a lot, use a few drops of tea tree oil, as it has germicidal properties. Soak the feet for 10 to 15 minutes. Wash and apply the Foot Lotion (given below).

Foot Lotion: Mix together 3 tablespoons of rose water, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and one teaspoon pure glycerin. Apply on your feet and leave on for half an hour.

2 tablespoons honey, one tablespoon herbal shampoo, one tablespoon almond oil. Soak feet in it for 20 minutes.
