Growing up in Florida, every season was flip-flop season. Well, except for our one "cold" month (February in case you're curious), then we wore shoes. Ever since we moved out of the land of endless summer, though I've had to make more of an effort to get my feet summer ready.
Here are a few tips that will help you get ready to rock those sandals and enjoy your summer with beautiful feet!
Silky Foot Soak
Technically the first step in pre-flip-flop foot prep is exfoliating your feet, but I wanted to share this silky foot soak recipe first because I find that exfoliation seems to work better for me if I soften my skin a little first.
This recipe is courtesy the Young Living Blog.
Ingredients:
* 1/2 cup epsom salts
* 2 TBSP rolled oats (if you can grind fine in a coffee grinder this makes a better texture)
* 10-15 drops your favorite essential oil (Tea Tree is what I'd recommend for freshness and the appearance of healthy skin and nails)
Instructions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a glass jar and use 2 TBSP of the mixture for each foot bath.
2. Combine 2 TBSP of the mixture with a basin of warm water and soak your feet until the water has cooled.
3. Gently dry and then move on to the exfoliation recipe below.
