Hello! I just need some tips or directions on how to have less smelling feet or better yet, no smell at all.
Cause, my parents are like " crazy.gif what is that smell??!" then they found out it was my feet. sweatingbullets.gif

ehehe, actually i have no prob with my feet, I even like the smell of my smelly feet. ( blink.gif you might think im fweaky!XD)

Anyway, since Im a GIRL, I guess i have to be more careful with my appearance and even smell.
So, any suggestions?? Do you guys have the same problem?? any products your using to improve the smelly scent??

For the sake of my parents and my teenage life...! XD

Thanks for helping out if you replied wink.gif

Maybe you need to restock your socks or wash your shoes. Or maybe all you need is a good foot scrub. x]

I use to get smelly feets from not wearing socks. I heard that you could use powder to absorb the moisture and control the smell.

Do you wear slippers around the house? That could be the issue for causing the smell. That usually happens to me when I wear slippers in other people's houses.

go to the drugstore and pick up some footspray that kills bacteria that causes the odor.

Flats make my feet smelly, too. mellow.gif
Use a foot spray/powder. It'll help lessen the sweating. And make sure that your feet is completely dry before you wear socks.

On Oprah, Dr. Oz said something about soaking your feet in green tea. It seems easy, and the girl that they showed on TV that tried it said it worked.

Well first we need to address the issue of WHY they are stinking.

Foot odor is caused by bacteria consuming the sweat given off when your feet perspire. Okay, so we have two thing we can focus on, sweat and bacteria. Let's start off with the most urgent, the bacteria. To fight the bacteria, do as one previous poster suggested and soak your feet in salt water. Salt is pretty much a kill-all solution. Plus people won't question you like if you had some sort of specialized medicated cream. ;D To stop the sweat, you should wear socks if you aren't. They will absorb the sweat off of your feet and away from the bacteria. Try to get sort of thin socks, as if they're too thick they will just become a breeding ground for the bacteria. I personally use a special pair of Addidas socks, even though I don't have foot odor problems. The next thing is to always keep your feet ventilated. Don't go walking around in big military boots (lol) but something loose and thin, like Converse or some Vans, etc.

Hope this helped!

Do you wear socks in the house? mellow.gif That's usually a big one

The green tea remedy - it really depends on how long you soak for. It does work, but with stronger odors, you need more time/constant refills.
