You can find the necessary product in your kitchen cabinet.
Homemade method for rough heels
Are your heels as rough as a grater? During the fall and winter, they are "doomed" to prolonged confinement in shoes under damp conditions. How can you remedy this? You don't have to rush to the pharmacy or store to find the perfect product. It's worth rummaging through the products you have on hand. Our choice is baking powder, which you surely have in your kitchen.
It turns out that it's useful not only for baking holiday cakes but also for preparing a foot soak.
How to prepare a baking powder soak?
Simply dissolve one tablespoon of baking powder in one quart (about 4 cups) of water, then soak your feet for 10 to 15 minutes. Afterward, thoroughly clean your feet and apply moisturizing cream. The soak can be used two to three times a week.
Soaking your feet in water and baking powder smooths the skin, eliminates unpleasant odors, and soothes irritations. The skin becomes delicate and soft, ready for further care, such as removing dead skin cells.
