Re: how to whiten feet??

u can try any of these three for feet whitening they all are best and free of steriods and side effects.

Alpha Arbutin: It is a bio-synthetic ingredient, which is pure, and water-soluble. This constituent is one of the most effective bleaching agents, which can show positive results in all type of skin.

Kojic Acid: Most Asians include this ingredient in their diet. Kojic Acid can easily diminish age spots and pigmentations. It is the natural alternative of Hydroquinone. It acts as a perfect lightening agent. It can easily inhibit the production of Melanin.

Vitamin C: It can act as a natural anti-oxidant, which can flush out toxins from your body with ease

Diluted dettol - u'll need to soak ur feet in this for about 30-45 mins.

Let me know if anyone else has success with this or if i'm just imagining it please.

Re: how to whiten feet??

To soften rough feet, try this regimen every night before going to bed, for two weeks. Dip the feet in warm water containing a teaspoon of (preferably herbal) shampoo and one teaspoon of baking powder. Let them soak for 10- 15 minutes, before drying them. Apply a foot cream and then go to sleep.
Treat dry skin on the feet and cracked heels with this herbal remedy. Prepare a mixture with equal quantity of glycerin, fresh cream and honey. Apply this mixture to the feet, especially to the cracked heels and let it stay on for 15 minutes. Wash off with warm water. Try this every three days ( before sleeping) to find smooth feet and heels.
A easy pedicure which is fast and effective can be done easily at home. It is herbal and natural and fast acting. Add a few (four to five) drops of vinegar to four or five table spoons (40-50 grams) of curd and mix well in a dish. Rub this mixture well on the feet, ankles, heels and the soles of the feet especially between the toes. Let it stay on for ten minutes and then wash off with warm water. This process will rejuvenate the skin on the feet, removing dead cells and stimulating blood circulation.
If you have a tendency to develop cracks on your heels and are suffering from this painful condition, your feet require regular care. Try this natural remedy every three days before bed time. Immerse feet in warm water to which 10 ml lemon juice and 20 ml coconut oil has been added. Scrub the heel area after twenty minutes with a pumice stone. Dry thoroughly and apply a foot cream. The improvement can be seen after the second treatment and this can become a weekly feature after the first month.
Incase, you are looking for a home made moisturizer for the skin specially the feet, you can prepare one easily. Simply mix rose water and glycerin ( glycerin) in equal proportion and store, to be used when ever required, especially after foot care treatment. Replace this mixture every one month.

I have shared many useful foot care tips and natural remedies in the above article. It is now up to you to take the initiative and start caring for your feet. Keep 15 to 20 minutes of your time before you go to sleep for your feet and the feet will thank you forever.

Lots of people have vouched for the dettol remedy so give it a try.. wear sunblock before u step out.. and a mixture of almond peels, lemon juice, and tomato pulp is effective too. Leave it on till it dries and then scrub it off..
