  • ¼ cup kosher salt
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ banana

Instructions

  • Rinse yourself and the tub well.

Notes

Hard Calluses? Scrub with Salted Citrus
  • ¼ cup sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
  • 1 tablespoon grapefruit zest
  • 2 teaspoon fresh grapefruit juice
Mix salt with the oil and stir in grapefruit zest and juice. You could also use lime or lemon juice.
While seated (try the edge of the tub), vigorously massage a bit of scrub into the soles while using a softer touch on the tops of your feet. Rinse well.
Cracked Heels? Soothe + Repair with Oatmeal
  • 2 tablespoons ground oatmeal
  • ¼ cup mango
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey
Cut up an entire mango into chunks, and puree it in a blender or food processor. Mix in the oats, turmeric, and honey, and stir well with a spoon.
While in the shower, you can use this as a scrub first and then a mask by leaving it on the skin for 5 to 10 minutes. Or sit by the tub and cover feet with plastic wrap and relax for 10–15 minutes.
Then rinse with warm water and follow up with your usual moisturizer. Repeat twice a week for baby soft feet in two weeks.
Stinky Feet? KO odor with a Margarita Lime Scrub
  • ½ cup sea salt
  • Juice from 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoon tequila
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 drops tea tree essential oil
Mix all ingredients together in small bowl until you have a paste. Add more olive oil if needed. Then scrub away in the shower.
Tired Feet? Revive with a Peppermint Scrub
Combine coconut oil and the essential oils in a small bowl, then add the sea salt and cornmeal. Add more coconut oil if needed for a spreadable texture. Massage into damp feet, and then rinse and pat dry.
Yellow Nails? Whiten with Strawberry
  • 2 mashed strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
Combine strawberries and baking soda in a small bowl. Buff onto nails with a clean toothbrush for 1 minute, let sit for 15 minutes then rinse. Use twice a month.
