I thought people may be interested in uses for Borax powder, such as an anti fungal treatment and an additive to epsom salts or magnesium chloride in the bath or a foot bath.
Borax has multiple uses and you should use it very carefully. Just because it is natural doesn’t mean that it cannot be harmful. So please do read up on the do's and don'ts of using Borax.
I am an insomniac and live in a house that adds up to the number 5, which is a notorious number for insomniacs. Anyway, I started using a tablespoon of Borax in a foot bath with magnesium chloride last week and boy oh boy what a great sleep as well as my feet feeling great. I still use my magnesium cream with chamomile and lavender at bedtime too.
Borax is good for keeping one’s skin acid neutral and is useful for deep cleaning to remove excess oil from your skin, so a must have for those who have oily skin. It is used in commercial shampoos, exfoliants, creams and cleansers. Borax is also known as a preservative in preventing bacterial growth in shampoos, creams and lotions. However some people have allergies to Borax and long term use can cause skin rashes.
Please make sure that you keep it away from children and pets. Large amounts can be harmful, so use with caution and follow the instructions on a reputable website.
Borax has multiple household uses too so if you can’t tolerate it on your skin it may be good for cleaning your house and as a laundry booster to keep your clothes mould free.
