Easily Soften and Sooth Dry, Cracked Feet

Many of us look forward to the arrival of warmer weather, but we may not look forward to what happens with our feet. After all, they spent months stuffed inside socks, boots and galoshes and they are dying to breathe. In fact, most of us are rather embarrassed by the appearance of our feet when spring is in the air, as they can look rather rough.

Before you slip on those sandals and flip-flops, it’s time to give your feet the TLC they need. I’m not talking about going to an expensive spa for a pedicure, there is a way to do it on a budget and the answer is hiding right in your medicine cabinet.

The secret ingredient is… wait for it… Listerine! According to Yahoo, the combination of ethanol and benzoic acid make it the perfect foot wash. Not only can it help to remove dead skin, it works as an anti-fungal and anti-bacterial treatment to cure athlete’s foot and other nasty issues as well. When you also consider the tingling sensation feels great, you have a win-win situation.

Don’t go running for a bucket and submerge your foot in straight Listerine. Do this instead:

Gather the Necessary Supplies:
– 1 cup Listerine (or your favorite antiseptic mouthwash)
– 1 cup white or apple cider vinegar
– 2 cups warm water

And then do this:
1. Mix the ingredients together in a foot tub.
2. Soak your feet for an hour, then admire your soft skin!

If that seems overly simple, IT IS! Just follow those simple instructions and then sit back to admire your new, fresh and beautiful feet.
