Soothing DIY foot soak recipe
What you’ll need:
1 cup of lemon juice
1 tablespoon of honey
3 tablespoons of olive oil
¼ cup of full cream milk
Your bathtub or a large, deep container wide enough to fit your feet
1. In a glass bowl, combine all ingredients and blend well.
2. Fill your bathtub (or container) up to halfway with warm water.
3. Pour your soothing foot treatment mixture into the water slowly and give a light swirl with your hand.
4. Lower your feet in and leave to soak for 20 minutes
5. Rinse off and pat feet dry.
The lemon juice in this recipe breaks down any dirt on your feet so it’s perfect as an everyday feet washing treatment, particularly if you suffer from sweaty feet or foot odour. The honey and olive oil are fantastic foot treatment ingredients as they both work to penetrate the skin deeply and nourish, aiding repair – whilst the addition of soothing milk makes this recipe ideal as a softening foot bath. This recipe is perfect for everyday use.
I would like to commit to a monthly treatment too – might have to mark it on my calendar and commit to it or something.
I like the sounds of the Billie Goat foot scrub suggestion!
