Overnight Oatmeal Foot Masque


Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup almonds
  • 1/4 dry oatmeal
  • 3 tablespoons food grade cocoa butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
Preparation
  • Process almonds in a blender or coffee grinder until finely ground
  • Set aside
  • In the same blender, pulse your oatmeal until the same consistency
  • In a bowl, combine ground oatmeal, cocoa butter, honey, and ground almonds
  • Rub into your clean feet, step into cotton socks, and leave on overnight
  • The next morning, remove the socks and rinse feet in cool water
  • Pat dry
  • We recommend you not remove the socks until you're standing in the tub

Note
Let me tell you why this masque is so good. Almonds and oatmeal act as exfoliators, gentle on the skin, yet powerful to remove the dead skin. Oatmeal is hypoallergenic at the same time. Cocoa butter moisturizes and nourishes the skin, while honey adds an antibacterial touch to the whole mix. Great recipe!
