Most calluses will be caused by ill-fitting footwear, but if you spend a lot of time barefoot, then you'll naturally build up tougher skin on the soles of your feet. It's not harmful and getting rid of it with a pumice stone or file is purely a question of aesthetics. MOISTUREThis is one of the key elements of foot care and it simply involves staying hydrated. If you're dry, your feet are one of the first parts of the body to suffer, with cracked soles, dry skin and brittle nails. So keep the water bottle close and buy some urea-based moisturiser to regularly rub on your feet (if you're really lucky, you may find someone to rub it in for you!). SUNBe careful. If your feet don't see daylight too often, there's a good chance they could get burned in Lanzarote's scorching sunshine, and sunburn on your feet is no laughing matter. Just get the sunblock on and try not to forget to re-apply often.
