a Crash Course in Natural Foot Care

Are your feet showing the effects of a long, dreary winter, shoved into thick socks and shoes and largely forgotten?
Chastise yourself for just one second, resolve to do better next year, then move on and get down to business!
First, gather your supplies.
You'll need something to soak in, something to scrub with, something to
moisturize with and something to seal moisture in. Many products we use
to peel, scrub and moisturize use ingredients with dubious, synthetic
origins.
By using good quality, natural products, you can get the same results without the chemical exposure.
Crash Course Plan (follow every day for at least five days)
1. Soak feet for 15 minutes in a foot bath or basin filled with warm
water and 2 Tbsp Epsom or Sea salts and 1 Tbsp olive oil. Gilden Tree
offers excellent Revitalizing Foot Soak Crystals with Shea Butter for
moisturizing.
2. Use a wet washcloth with a few drops of liquid soap or shower gel to
gently cleanse all over feet. If you have Exfoliating Foot Scrub, add 1
tsp to the cloth.
3. Add a few drops of liquid soap to the Footscrubber and gently scrub
the bottoms of feet. A tsp of Exfoliating Foot Scrub also works very
well with the Footscrubber.
4. Place foot back in foot bath and repeat for other foot.
5. Remove first foot, dry gently and massage in about 1 tsp of
Nourishing Foot Cream. If you have Shea Butter, massage a tiny,
pea-sized amount into very dry places like heels and nails. If you have Hand, Nail & Cuticle Salve, it can be used the same way.
You will be amazed at the difference in your feet after just five days.
From then on, just repeat the process once or twice a week and continue
to use your Footscrubber and Foot Cream daily.
Now you're ready to pull out your sexiest sandals and get busy!
