DIY: Treating Sore, Cracked and Stinky Feet



 

DIY: Treating Sore, Cracked and Stinky Feet

If you wear flip flops or sandals often, you know that it is easy for your feet to become cracked and sore. They can even start a dirty, dark layer of skin.

Here is an easy solution using items you most likely have at home already.

Please note, if you have diabetes, you need to take special care of your feet and should always seek doctors advice.

An easy six-step solution:

  1. Put shaving cream on your feet.
  2. In a bucket or sink, combine equal parts warm water and Listerine.
  3. Soak a small hand towel in the solution of water and Listerine.
  4. While the shaving cream is still on your feet wrap the wet hand towel around your feet and let it sit for 30 minutes.
  5. After 30 minutes, use the towel to rub your feet. Some of the calloused and discolored skin will rub off.
  6. Apply a healthy amount of lotion to your feet.

This process literally takes a layer of skin off of your feet so only do this once a week.

DIY: 45 Cleaning Uses for Vinegar



Vinegar is something we all have on hand or can easily obtain at the store. But, did you realize how versatile of a cleaning agent it is?

45 Uses for Vinegar

Here are some of my favorites…

Save a Garment:  To remove light scorch marks on fabrics, rub gently with vinegar. Wipe with a clean cloth. This technique also works on antiperspirant stains.

Banish weeds. Pour white distilled vinegar on the weeds growing in the cracks of your walkway and driveway. Saturate the plant so the vinegar reaches the roots.

Put an end to itching. Dab a cotton ball soaked in white vinegar on mosquito bites and insect stings. It will stop them from itching and help disinfect the area so they heal faster.

Prevent cracked eggs. Prevent eggs from cracking as they hard-boil by adding two tablespoons of white vinegar to the water. The eggs will stay intact, and the shells will peel off more easily when you’re ready to eat them.

Loosen a rusted screw. Pour vinegar onto the screw, and it will easily unstick.

Restore showerhead pressure. If your showerhead gets clogged with mineral deposits, soak it for 15 minutes in a mixture of ½ cup vinegar and 1 quart water.

Prep for summer grilling. To remove charcoal buildup from your grill, spray white distilled vinegar on balled up aluminum foil and scrub the grate thoroughly.
