Sometimes we cannot avoid that smell unpleasant especially when we undergo a hard days work, workout or when the weather is too hot that sweat us much or we can still smell bad because of the food that we eat, after taking off our heels and shoes. Of course it’s a normal thing after all, but we need to fix it before others will notice it. Surprisingly we can have a quick fix for the not so sweet smells in our life that can be found in the kitchen. Yes, so easy to reach bad odor remedies that will help us to achieve a full body freshness.

1.Tea

Aside from being a healthy drink, it’s also good at keeping stinky feet.

As we all know that perspiration has a fowl odor especially when the naturally occurring bacteria on your skin interact with your feet’s perspiration, the result is the equivalent of an odorous perfect storm in your shoe. But if you can limit the moisture in your feet you can hamper the horrible smell. This is what you are going to do, make a pot of tea and pour it into a tub big enough to fit booth tootsies. Once it has cooled, soak your feet for 10 minutes. You can do this remedy once a day. Just a reminder, tea may stain your skin so wash it quickly with soap and water to remove discoloration.

2. Cornstarch

Other way to stop bad odor on your feet is by using cornstarch. Have you noticed at the end of the day after slipping off your shoes you can smell something- like yucky?

That is why cornstarch is a good fix for the problem because the powder absorbs excess moisture and neutralizes odor and aside from that its soft granules are more comfortable on feet than traditional baking soda. Just sprinkle some           cornstarch into your shoes as soon as you get home.
