Why Listerine Works
Listerine contains key ingredients like:
Thymol
Menthol
Eucalyptol
These natural oils have antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties that help:
Kill the fungus
Clean the nail and surrounding skin
Prevent the infection from coming back
The Simple Listerine Nail Soak
You’ll Need:
1 cup of original Listerine (amber-colored)
1 cup of white vinegar (optional, for stronger effect)
A small basin or bowl
How to Use It:
Mix equal parts Listerine and vinegar in a basin large enough to fit your fingers or toes. (You can also use only Listerine if you prefer.)
Soak the affected nails for 20–30 minutes daily.
After soaking, rinse and dry the nails thoroughly.
Repeat every day for at least 2 weeks—or until the fungus clears completely.
Extra Tips for Lasting Results
Keep nails trimmed and clean.
Dry feet and hands completely after showers.
Avoid walking barefoot in public showers or pools.
Use clean socks daily (preferably cotton or moisture-wicking).
Gentle, Natural, Effective
In only a few short weeks, several people have reported experiencing tremendous improvement. It is simple, inexpensive, and, in comparison to chemical treatments, it is much more mild. Give this treatment a shot, and you will finally be able to say goodbye to nail fungus.
