June Is Hand and Foot Care Month at GBS

During June GBS will be having events and specials that center around caring for our hands and feet. Be on the lookout for these events at your local GBS and let’s get our hands and feet in shape for the summer. –


The skin of our hands is very fragile. Hands dry out easily, especially because we expose them to detergents, sun exposure and other cleaning products without adequate protection. These factors plus harmful sun rays accelerate the dehydration of our hands. Here at GBS we carry many products to help protect and rehydrate your hands. Try Healing Balms and lotions from Qtica Or one of the cream from Ahava, Burt's Bees, Crabtree & Evelyn or Archipelago.


Of course, taking care of your feet is just as important. We all want to stay active and comfortable throughout lives. A good foot care regimen can go a long way toward this goal. The good news is that foot care can be simple, easy and even relaxing.

Care for your feet regularly to keep calluses under control. Use a pumice stone or an abrasive foot scrub to remove the dead and rough skin. Look for Mehaz or Tweezerman to help. Give your feet a foot bath. Use OPI’s Pedicure soak in the water to soften and put a few of marbles in the bath water and roll your feet around on top of them to stimulate the nerve endings. Get a foot massage once in a while. Try one of OPI’s Manicure/Pedicure creams available in a selection of flavors for a sensational treat for your feet. Finally, use a good moisturizer every day, like Avoplex. And for nighttime foot care, put a generous amount of cream, like Ahava’s Dermud Foot Cream, or OPI’s Pedicure creams on your feet before you go to bed then pull on a pair of cotton socks. The socks will lock in the moisture while you sleep!

Now that you have you hands and feet in good physical condition top them off with a pretty manicure with products and polishes from OPI, Zoya, Mavala and Trind .
