If you're experiencing dry, flaky feet...try a homemade foot scrub. Many times dry skin is due to an accumulation of dead skin cells. Using a scrub will help exfoliate the skin and remove the skin cells sitting on the surface.
The ingredients for this all natural foot scrub can be found in your kitchen:
2 tbsp plain yogurt
1 bag dried peppermint tea leaves
Mix the plain yogurt with one bag of dried peppermint tea leaves. Apply to feet and gently rub. The dried tea leaves will act as a natural, physical exfoliator, while the peppermint provides a cooling sensation. The yogurt is great for moisturizing thanks to its lactic acid. Leave the mixture on for a few minutes and then rinse off with lukewarm water.
If you experience chronic, dry soles and scrubs, moisturizers, etc...don't seem to help, then you may have athletes foot (fungal infection). In that case you would need to use an antifungal treatment.
