With summer almost over, my bare feet have been working overtime. Part of it’s laziness because slipping on a pair of shoes to hit the garden, hang the laundry, or grab the mail is just waaaay too much effort, but the other part is the soothing feeling of soft grass {or better sand} between my toes.
Of course, all of this earthing does not come without a price, in the form of dry, cracked, and sometimes callused feet. Sure, you can hit up the salon and drop $50 for a weekly pedi, but I prefer to keep my hard earned $ and buy this. Instead, I opt for an easy, inexpensive, and indulgent way to treat my tootsies to some TLC.
In my summer of 2013 blog hopping journey, I recently traveled over to Empowered Sustenance, where I offer readers a foot rub. No, not a real one – that would be gross, but rather a super easy D-I-Y minty sea salt foot scrub that uses ingredients you probably already have in your bathroom cabinet. Check it out here.
This foot scrub will last you months and work tirelessly to remove dead skin, smooth calluses, soothe tired muscles, and soften your skin. It’s best done at the end of a long day right before bed – you know, during your “you” time when you get all zen. That happens, right?
Tell me, how do you unwind after a long day (besides a glass of pinot)? Do you have any self-care routines that you can’t live without?

Hi there – you need to click the hyperlink on the page that takes you to the guest post over at Empowered Sustenance. Here it is: http://empoweredsustenance.com/mint-and-sea-salt-foot-scrub/. :)
I love homemade scrub with essential oil– Once I used it on the rough skin areas like elbows and knees as well and the sea salt gives it such a pretty pink color. :)
Awesome, Evie! So much better than the chemical-laden store bought stuff, huh!? Thanks for the comment and your readership! :)
