Can the Foot Scrubber be sanitized?

Yes, our terracotta Foot Scrubber lasts practically forever because it is solid and fired in a kiln. The texture is only on the surface, so it can be easily cleaned.

Cleaning your Foot Scrubber


For daily use, liquid soap, shower gel or shampoo work best versus bar soap, since that can get stuck in the texture. To clean directly after using it, just rinse with water, place it flat with the scrubbing side down so water can drain out, and let dry it thoroughly.

Once in a while, use a nail brush, scrub brush or old toothbrush to remove any buildup. Rinse and lay the stone flat with the scrubbing side down to dry out. 

For Foot Scrubbers that need a deeper cleaning, fill a glass or bowl with warm water and add a teaspoon of bleach. Soak it for a couple of hours, then brush and rinse out.

Letting your Foot Scrubber dry in the sunlight is also a great way to harness the sun's disinfecting power.

Foot Scrubbers are also dishwasher-safe. Or, if you have access to a professional autoclave, it is safe to disinfect that way, too. The terracotta color may change, but the tool itself will be just fine.
