1. It Makes Your Hair Shiny And Restores Volume

2. It Makes Your Feet Baby Soft
Ladies, you don’t need to go to a salon to get a foot spa done, you can do one at home! You see, beer contains yeast. Yeast helps in making the skin on your feet soft. Also, the alcohol in the beer serves as an antiseptic. This helps protect your feet from harmful bacteria.

Step 2 – Pour half a can of beer into the tub of warm water.
Step 3 – Soak your feet in and relax. Don’t forget to scrub after!

If you’ve always wanted to wake up to clean and soft skin, then you have to give beer a shot!
