How to Perform a Mouthwash Foot Soak at Home
Here’s how to use a basic mouthwash soak to get noticeably cleaner, fresher, and smoother feet:
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 cup of original (blue or green) mouthwash
- 1 cup of white vinegar
- 2 cups of warm water
- A basin large enough to comfortably fit both feet
- Towel for drying
- Moisturizer or foot cream (optional but recommended)
Step-by-Step Process:
- Mix the Solution: In a basin, combine 1 cup of mouthwash with 1 cup of white vinegar. Add 2 cups of warm water to dilute the mixture somewhat.
- Soak Your Feet: Submerge both feet fully in the solution and let them soak for 30 minutes.
- Gently Scrub: After the soak, use a pumice stone or foot scrubber to remove softened dead skin, especially around the heels and balls of the feet.
- Rinse and Dry: Rinse your feet with clean water and pat dry with a soft towel.
- Moisturize: To seal in moisture and preserve smoothness, use a high-quality foot lotion or moisturizer.
Repeat this soak 2-3 times per week for best results. Many users notice visible improvements after just one treatment, including reduced odor, smoother skin, and healthier nails.
