Step 7: Hydrate
Take one foot out of the foot bath and pat dry with a hand towel. To cool and relax your feet as you soothe them, massage a foot lotion or rich cream with peppermint oil, like Kora Rejuvenating Foot Balm, $24.95, into legs and feet.
For more intense moisturization, do a foot mask (yes, that's a thing). After removing your first foot from the foot bath, spread an even coat of a product like Lush Volcano Foot Mask, $13.95, on your foot and ankle. The mask contains deodorizing essential oils and ground pumice to keep feet fresh and smooth. Cover with plastic wrap, then a terry cloth towel. Repeat on your other foot. Wait three to five minutes before rinsing. Then massage feet with lotion as suggested above.
