Peppermint Cool Feet

Hot days and sandaled feet it must be summer

Hot days and sandaled feet it must be summer. As summer days heat up, only the lucky few will be strolling along the beach, cooling off their toes in the gentle surf. Meanwhile the rest of us will walk to work on hot, dusty sidewalks, trudge around the grocery stores, and drive the kids to every summer activity.

Hectic lifestyles leave little time to look after your uncomplaining feet. On days when you're not hiking the hills or riding down trails, your poor feet still get a pounding. What do they have to do to get your attention?

Don't wait for the blisters and pain before treating them to a cool peppermint refresher. Plan for a weekly Peppermint Pampering Pedicure:

  • Run a bowl of comfortably warm water, deep enough to soak up to the ankles.
  • Sit back and relax, letting the warm water ease tension right down to the toes.
  • Dry each foot thoroughly, taking special care to dry between the toes.
  • Gently massage a soothing peppermint lotion over the feet and ankles.

Your Peppermint Pampering Pedicure will feel so good. That's because peppermint lotion is like dipping your feet into a mountain stream: cool, soothing, and refreshing.

It's time for your tootsies to see the sunshine and get a little peppermint pampering. Look for peppermint lotion in the beauty section of your natural health store.
