Foot Cream Natural Ingredients:

  • 4 oz jar
  • Coconut Oil
  • Vitamin E Oil
  • Young Living Peppermint Essential Oil
  • Young Living Wintergreen Essential Oil
Foot Cream Ingredients

The coconut oil and vitamin E oils help moisturize and soothe your feet, especially if you have dry, cracked heels. According to LiveStrong, “Vitamin E is the primary antioxidant nutrient in the skin and is linked to improved healing and diminishing scars on the skin.”

The peppermint oil has anti-inflammatory properties and provides a long-lasting effect of cooling your feet. It also makes it one of the best foot creams to increase blood circulation.

How To Make Foot Cream:

Start with your coconut oil and vitamin E oil.

Take 1/4 Cup of coconut oil and 1/2 tsp of vitamin E oil and add them to a bowl. Whip together with a fork for 6-8 minutes. There is no need to melt the coconut oil and it can be used at room temperature. You want to get both of these oils mixed up and make them fluffy. Once mixed together, it’s time to add your essential oils.

Add 8 drops of your YL Peppermint essential oils and 8 drops of your Wintergreen essential oil.

Mix everything together and them transfer to your jar. Your homemade foot cream is now ready to use!

How To Use Natural Food Cream

If you want to go all out for a relaxing foot treatment, first use a homemade foot scrub to get off all the dead skin. Then apply the cooling foot cream for really refreshed feet.

Take a small scoop out and massage onto tops and bottoms of feet. Kick your feet up and let the cooling properties of the essential oils refresh and cool your tired feet.

To make feet feel extra good, get a hand towel and soak it in water. Ring the water out and place in microwave till warm (30-50 seconds). Wrap the warm towel around oily feet and stick in a bag or bowl to contain the mess while you relax.

If you tend to get athletes foot, add 8 drops of tea tree essential oil to your foot cream recipe. Because athlete’s foot is caused by fungus, using an essential oil with antifungal properties like Tea Tree is a great addition to your food cream.

Conclusion

This cooling foot cream is perfect for relieving minor aches and pains in your feet. However, you should seek medical help if you feel you might have medical conditions that are causing discomfort.

This homemade foot cream sure feels nice after a long day! If you have tired, painful feet, you will love this peppermint foot cream recipe. Wave goodbye to achy, dry feet. Another nice thing about DIY foot cream, is you know all the ingredients- no mysterious chemicals! Do you think you would enjoy this at home foot treatment?

    Thanks for this recipe so I can make my own diy foot cream. I recently switched to using eco-friendly products, clothes, food and everything that does not harm nature! This is very important, because we pollute the planet very much, and if we continue, by 2038 there will be a global water shortage and not only this!
