Most people use a foot bath with warm water, soap or oil. But would you ever think of putting your feet into plastic bags filled with a simple liquid mixture? It may sound strange at first, but this unusual foot treatment is used by many people to reduce foot odor, soften calluses and improve overall foot health. And the best part? You only need two basic ingredients.

Foot care is often overlooked until problems start to appear. Dry skin, thick calluses and unpleasant odors can develop slowly, especially if your feet are enclosed in shoes all day. Regular foot baths can help, but they often require large basins, a lot of water and expensive products. This method works differently. Instead of soaking your feet in a tub, you use simple freezer bags which turns out to have a surprising advantage.

Don’t do this

Many people try to fix foot problems by scrubbing aggressively, using harsh foot files or covering up odors with sprays. Don’t do this anymore.
Scrubbing too hard can irritate the skin, and sprays only mask odors instead of treating the cause. Thick calluses often return quickly because the skin never gets a chance to soften properly. There is a much gentler and more effective way to care for your feet and it involves a simple mixture that works deep into the skin.
