Step 1:

Pour Epsom salts into a deep basin large enough to fit your feet. Add sea salt and lavender essential oil. Pour about
2 quarts warm water into basin and add dried lavender (if using). Soak feet for 20 minutes.

Step 2:

After soaking, you can use some of the sea salt to exfoliate your feet and the lower part of your legs or use a pumice stone to remove any rough spots on your heels and toes. Towel-dry your feet and smooth on an all-natural moisturizer such as shea butter or coconut oil.
