They were created with makeup in mind, and have been dubbed “cosmetics for your feet.” All colors and styles mimic different kinds of cosmetics, such as “foundations,” “liners,” “polishes,” “glosses” and more. The foundation flip-flops are probably the most popular and they come in different skin tones; if you get one to match your complexion, not only will it elongate your legs but it will make your pedicure look amazing!
