Hacks For Dealing With Smelly Feet by Opinionated: 2:29pm On Aug 14, 2018
Smelly feet are a common problem and can be really embarrassing for those suffering from this problem. Regardless of the temperature and the weather, anyone can get sweaty feet. Fortunately, there are quite a number of cures that are worth trying to get rid of annoying foot odour. Jumia, the online store you can trust, discusses easy things you can do to check bacteria so you can walk odour-free.

Soak in tea


The acid in the tea closes your pores, reducing the amount you will sweat. Place two tea bags in boiling water. Once boiled, add cold water and place your feet in the bowl for 30 minutes. Do this once a day for a week.

Use Vinegar

Vinegar is quite beneficial in getting rid of smelly feet as it creates an acidic environment in which bacteria cannot survive. You can use any type of vinegar, especially apple cider vinegar.

Rub powder for absorption

It does not matter if you use baby powder or baking soda, powders are a simple and non-expensive way to absorb wetness. There’s no need to buy fancy deodorizing powders or spray. Just sprinkle them into your legs to absorb the moisture. For maximum freshness, either sprinkle the powder in your shoe or rub on your feet.

Wear good shoes and socks

When it comes to socks, what works for one person wouldn’t necessarily work for you. You need to pick a fabric that will keep your feet driest. Cotton socks are likely to allow the foot to breathe. Also, wearing shoes without socks can lead to sweat accumulation, enabling bacteria to grow over time. Avoid wearing the same pair of socks two days in a row. Wear leather or canvas shoes, as they let your feet breathe, unlike plastic ones.

Eat right

Garlic, peppers, onions or any strong-flavoured foods should be avoided. The powerful aroma and flavour can pass through your bloodstream and into your sweat.

Soak feet in salt

Salt is a powerful mineral that pulls moisture from the skin and reduces the number of bacteria on the feet. Add half a cup of the salt to about a litre of water and soak your feet in the solution. When you’re done, do not rinse your feet. Instead, allow them to dry.

Chai why didn't I see this earlier? I had a very bitter experience

Late last year I noticed my feet started smelling like sour shit... I put it into prayers waiting for a miracle...

Then, whenever I visit people I insist on wearing my shoe inside their parlor... Even bathroom

My doomsday came when I visited my new crush and my mumu button was still very sharp... She ordered me remove my shoes before entering her father's parlor (shrine) and I obliged but I kept it a bit far from the door close to one soak away....

5 minutes later the parlor was smelling like fermented manure, the entire compound was oozing and the inhabitants thought the soak away have full... When I knew my lid would soon be blown I formed emergency call and took my leave... The girl papa was looking at me wan kain... Me I no even mind cos I knew that was my last day in that community
Since then I've Stopped wearing cover shoes... Pam no dey smell

Don’t repeat your stockings. Wash after each use.
Also, don’t be tempted to put your stockingsin your shoe.. Air your shoes too.
