Corn Natural Remedies


Women tend to have a love/hate relationship with their toes. Mine began the first time that I realized that shoe sizes were not negotiable and seriously tried to figure out a way to get rid of my pinky toes in an attempt to fit into some sexy peep-toed Aldo shoes on Sale that were made to fit munchkins. For some reason I convinced myself to buy them because they "looked long." Our obsession with sexy, tight, pointed strappy shoes has often led to calluses and corns, and caused many of us to dodge foot massages from boyfriends and limp our way through parties. Below is a natural remedy to try to get rid of those bothersome corns.

Corn  Natural Remedies

If you want to create your own corn-softening recipe, all you need is 5 aspirin, a little lemon juice (natural or the bottled version), water and saran wrap. Plain aspirin contains salicylic acid, the same active ingredient that is in many medicated corn pads. In order to make the corn softening paste follow these steps:

1. You must first crush the 5 aspirin. Place the aspirin between paper and use either a hammer or spoon to crush them.

2.  Place the crushed aspirin in a bowl

3. Place one teaspoon of lemon juice into the bowl

4. Place half a teaspoon of water into the bowl and mix it until a thick past is formed

5. Place the thick paste on your corn and wrap saran wrap around it. Then place a heated towel around the saran wrap for 10 minutes.

6. After you remove the towel and saran wrap, use a pumice stone and scrub off the soft skin

  1. There is this thing called a pumice stone and all you do wet it, and rub it on there. You do have to make sure that you don't take off too much of the skin, though. You can buy one of these at Target, CVS, Walgreen's, Wal-Mart. Just about anywhere! Hope I helped!
