The benefits of baking soda
Baking soda is an alkaline ingredient that can change the pH of your skin and protect it from many outdoor conditions. Clean feet with baking soda helps fight fungus, accelerate the healing of small cuts and wounds, while eliminating callosities of the feet. A bath of baking soda after returning from work helps to relax and eliminate odors.

However, baking soda should be used with care. Indeed, a bath of baking soda should not last more than 15 to 20 minutes. The good thing is that you can include in your bath other ingredients such as essential oils to amplify its impact and solve more problems. Here are a variety of soda-based baths that can treat different problems of the skin of the feet.

A classic bath
Heat water to a temperature of about 38 to 39 ° C and pour it into a basin (fill a container deep enough to submerge your feet). Then add 2 tablespoons of baking soda. Soak your feet for 10 to 15 minutes to relax and eliminate odors.

A bath with baking soda and salt
This bath is ideal if you need to soften your skin. Add 2 tablespoons of baking soda in about 2 liters of warm water and add a handful of salt. Dip your feet in the mixture for 7 to 8 minutes to soften their skin. Remove your feet and rub them with a pumice stone to remove the calluses.

A bath with baking soda and soap
To enjoy this bath, add 2 tablespoons of baking soda and a little liquid soap in 3 liters of water, then soak your feet for 10 minutes. The bath will cleanse your skin and make it softer.

A bath with baking soda and essential oils
A foot bath with baking soda and essential oils moisturizes and softens the skin. You can use an essential oil of lavender or lemongrass, but remember to dilute it first with a base oil such as sweet almond oil, especially if you have sensitive skin. You can avoid irritation or itching.

A bath with milk and baking soda
Heat a half-liter of milk over low heat without boiling. Spill it in a bowl and add 2 to 4 tablespoons of baking soda. Soak your feet for 5 minutes to soften calluses and hard skin and to prevent fungal infections. Then rub your feet with a pumice, especially where the skin is thicker. Finally rinse and wipe your feet. The milk will deep clean the skin while moisturizing and giving it more radiance.
