Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup baking soda
- Warm water (enough to fill a foot bath)
- Optional: Epsom salts (for relaxation), a few drops of essential oil (for scent), oatmeal (for exfoliation)
Method:
- Fill a foot bath with warm water. You want it comfortably warm, not hot.
- Add the baking soda and stir until it dissolves.
- Add any optional ingredients you’d like, such as Epsom salts for relaxation, a few drops of your favorite essential oil for a pleasant scent, or oatmeal for gentle exfoliation.
- Soak your feet for 10-15 minutes. Let the warm water and baking soda work their magic!
- After soaking, dry your feet thoroughly, especially between the toes.
- Apply a moisturizer to keep your feet soft and healthy.
For best results:
- Repeat this foot soak 2-3 times a week, especially if you suffer from chronic foot odor.
- Maintain good foot hygiene by washing your feet daily and drying them completely.
- Wear breathable shoes and socks made from natural materials like cotton.
What happens?
Baking soda is a natural deodorizer that helps neutralize foot odor caused by bacteria. Soaking your feet in a baking soda solution helps eliminate odor-causing bacteria and leaves your feet feeling refreshed and clean.
Bonus tip: Sprinkle baking soda directly into your shoes at night to absorb moisture and further combat odor. Just remember to shake it out in the morning before wearing!
