Titania - German Products At Its Best

Your feet cover a lot of ground – literally.  And after a long, tiring day with the heat and sun exposure combined, you have definitely put a strain to your pretty feet.  This of course, is aside from the fact that they are among the hardest working, and visible parts of our bodies to begin with.

German brand TITANIA®, the leading European manufacturer of foot care articles, is a brand that will help restore its moisture, texture and will keep them strong, healthy, and attractive.

TITANIA FOOT CREAMS

Currently, Titania has five foot creams. Each one of them is specially formulated to suit one’s particular needs.

Peeling Cream: Made of grounded walnut shells that are effectively and gently remove rough skin particles. Useafter scrubbing your feet with a foot file or pumice sponge.

 Cracked Heel Balm: Specially formulated to heal dry, rough feet. Contains moisturizing lanolin and chestnut.

Deodorant Cream: Anti-bacterial cream that kills odor-causing bacteria. It also reduces the sweat glands to help keep your feet fresh all day.

         

Callus Reduction Cream: Contains salicylic acid that helps reduce thick calluses. Regular use can also prevent calluses. It also has corn starch to keep your feet smooth and soft.

           

Softening Lotion:  Enriched with moisturizers, this provides intensive care for your feet. Highly absorbent and non greasy.

    •      PUMICE SPONGE

Pumice sponges are also effective instruments for taking out dead skin cells and calluses. Titania pumice sponges are made of special polyurethane which makes it easier to clean and reuse than natural pumice stones. Unlike natural pumice stones whose holes close up when you’ve used them once, Titania pumice sponges disintegrate as you use them so they open up new holes every time. Mini pumice sponges are also available. Ideal for small callus areas on your feet or callused hands.

    •      CORN CUTTER

Corn cutters are for those calluses that are too thick and difficult to scrub off with a foot file or a pumice sponge. Use a corn cutter to gently slice off the layers of calluses. Pull the cutter across the callus in one direction and in a gentle shaving motion. When the callus area is relatively thinner, alternate to a foot file or pumice sponge to scrub it off. Do not use a corn cutter if the callus isn’t too thick as you might cut your skin.

Always make sure that your cutters are sharp to prevent unwanted accidents. Refill blades are available. To replace the blade, push the middle of the cutter to disengage the blade tray from it. Available in Soft Touch version.

    •      CUTICLE CUTTERS

            To easily remove your unwanted cuticles, you can use Titania cuticle cutters. Use the soft         rubber tip at the other end to push back and shape the cuticles. Then, gently slide the         cuticle cutter around your cuticles to easily remove them with its flexible blade.        Remember to soak your fingers in warm water first for 5-10 minutes to soften your   cuticles before using the cuticle cutter. Available in Soft Touch line version.

    •      NAIL CUTTERS

Titania chromium-plated quality nail cutters guarantee perfect manicures with its precision-ground cutting edges. When you’re using a nail cutter, you want to start from one side to another, just clip your way across until you get your desired length. Apply pressure on the lever, being careful that the head of the clippers remains in place. With Titania’s special plastic covering, you don’t have to worry about leaving messy nail clippings when you’re cutting your nails. Just remove the covering after to throw away the clippings. Available in Soft Touch version.

    •      NAIL FILES

Nail files are used to smoothen any rough edges left by the nail cutter. Filing your nails can prevent them from cracking and breaking. File the nails straight up from the side and move it from one side to another. Make sure that you file your nails in a square shape to prevent ingrowns. As you file your nails, the surface of the nail file may form a layer of build-up, causing it to be less effective. Wipe it off periodically to ensure that the surface of the nail file is as effective as possible.

***Wooden files, emery files and sapphire files are available. Titania sapphire files are made of flexible feathered steel. They stay straight throughout.

    •      NAIL BUFFER

Now, to give your dull nails a glossy look without chemical treatments or expensive manicure &/or pedicures, a nail buffer can do the trick. A nail buffer helps remove the uneven ridges of the nail, giving it a smooth appearance. Aside from that, buffing is also believed to promote blood circulation & stimulate the growth of healthy nails.

So when you buff your nails, buff only in one direction, either forward or backward. Do not buff vigorously, as aggressive buffing will make your nail thin.
