PINTEREST FAIL

There is a foot soak circulating Pinterest that I thought I'd give a try this afternoon.

"Ideal to help with those crusty feet!  Get it right ladies!! …the BEST way to get your feet ready for summer.  Sounds crazy but it works!  Mix 1/4c Listerine (any kind but I like the blue), 1/4c vinegar and 1/2c of warm water. Soak feet for 10 minutes–the dead skin will practically wipe off!"  

 I had all the ingredients on hand and 10 minutes, so why not?

Friends, I'm using my serious face, remove this pin from your boards.  It doesn't work.

I made two separate batches because I didn't have a container that would fit both of my feet and sat back and relaxed.

Besides making my feet tingly fresh feeling, the only thing it did was make my feet pruney and blue.  No skin was sloughed off.  My skin remained and was turned a shade of watery blue color that makes my toes look bruised.

Unfortunately, the photos don't do it justice, which is a bummer because it was quite hilarious.

I feel ready for seeing Smurf 2 tomorrow with the wee ones!

AND, now I can say that I have turned my eyebrows black, my hair purple and my toes blue!
