Pilates Pedi Ready!
As you know, Ballet Sculpters, Pilates, Yoga and dancers, you spend a lot of time looking at your tootsies during practice! So it might not make your downward dog or your forward fold any deeper, but it will be a helluva lot prettier if you paint your nails a beautiful colour.
Pilates Double Leg Lift:
Stack hips, knees, ankles
Rest cheek on extended lower arm
Upper hand on the floor for balance
Brace abdominals and raise both legs
Hold for a count of 5 then lower
Also, let's be honest. A dancer and gym bunny's feet are taking a lot of sneaker action so any quick, affordable, do-it-at-home pedicure is top priority. I have been scrubbing my tired little feet with Sally Hansen Pumice Polish. It smells like lavender and works like an exfoliator. So my feet smell like a lavender garden and they're all soft and smooth.
Finish off with either a deep, dark colour like my new pick, Essie "Carry On" (deep purple) or pick from one of the many beautiful pastel shades (Loving "Fiji" and "Sugar Daddy")
