Plastic sandals . Most of this type of footwear can be washed in the washing machine and does not need special care. If the stains do not come off, apply a few drops of tea tree oil: it is very effective against fungi and bacteria that cause bad odors.

Cork sandals . Cleaning this type of sandal and making it last a long time is very simple. You need warm water, a bristle brush and a soap specifically designed for cork. Apply soap to your sandals, then wet the brush and rub lightly, without applying too much pressure. Once finished, rinse with cold water and let dry. Remember that cork is waterproof.
