Milk
Soaking your feet in water can get boring, so instead, blend four cups of whole milk and a couple of handfuls of baking soda, blending with your favorite essential oil. This at-home spa treatment gives major Cleopatra vibes. Be sure to warm up the milk beforehand. After soaking in the milk for about 10 minutes, massage your feet with a handful of baking soda before dipping them back in the milk for a few more minutes.
Banana
It might sound weird to mash your feet into some mushy bananas, but the vitamins and amino acids in them can help in multiple ways. You can either mash them up and apply this “mask” to your feet for 20 minutes before rinsing off or rub the peels all over the dry bottoms of your feet.
Toothpaste
Although this shouldn’t be used on deep cracks (menthol won’t be comfortable), toothpaste is a surprisingly cooling scrub with abrasive particles that can do the same things a pumice stone or foot file does. It can exfoliate dead skin cells and has a surprising perk of brightening your toenails and removing blisters. For blisters, apply a paste to the area and leave it on for a couple of hours. For whiter toenails, apply the paste to the nails and scrub them with an old toothbrush.
