Coconut Foot Treatment & Foot Cooling Cream

Article Abstract by: MysteryMoon     

Original Authors: Rachael Ray; Unknown
Coconut Foot Treatment

12 mins (2 mins prep)
For 1 Serving
1
teaspoon honey

2
tablespoons sliced almonds
1/2
cup coconut milk
1
lemon, cut in half
coarse salt or coarse sugar
In a small bowl, combine the honey, almonds and milk.
Pour the mixture into a bowl large enough to soak both feet and add hot water.
Soak your feet for a few minutes to get them soft, then dip the lemon halves in the salt or sugar and rub them on your feet to exfoliate.
Soak your feet for 10 minutes more, and then pat them dry with a towel.
Foot Cooling Cream

1/2   cup of any type non greasy body lotion
1/4
cup vodka
1/4
cornstarch
30
drops peppermint essential oils (or more) 10 min prep
For 1 small jar
Instead of vodka you can use rubbing alcohol which is available from chemists. Tea Tree or Eucalyptus oil also have refreshing effects. Lemon oil, does not have the tingly effect like the peppermint but smelled very nice, make your own combinations. The cream is also nice when you not just massage it into your feet but on your legs as well.
In a bowl, mix the alcohol with the corn starch, until lump free.
Add the body lotion and whisk until it gets thicker and more the consistency of a cream.
To this add the peppermint oil, mix.
Transfer to a wide neck jar.
