Before having kids, I used to love going to get a pedicure. They are so relaxing and they always used a nice mint foot soak and scrub that left me feeling so relaxed. Not to mention my feet super soft! If you haven’t had one, I highly recommend getting one!
If you’re like me and love pedicures, but are short on time, you can make this refreshing mint foot soak and use in the convenience of your own home. Did I also mention it’s super easy to make and cost just pennies to put together? I like to add a little fresh mint since we have so much of it at our house this time of year, but you can also buy it at the store or omit it altogether. It does add a little more of a minty scent, and makes it prettier for gift giving.
This would make a great gift for the kids teacher, the neighbors, family, or really anyone who could use a nice relaxing foot soak. And who doesn’t, right? I also included free printable labels to go along with it and directions on how to use. In the next few days, I will also be sharing a mint foot scrub, which when paired together, would make an excellent gift!
* If you plan on giving this as a gift, you can easily double or triple the recipe and break it up into smaller containers.
