Abstract
A foot dryer for drying toes on a foot of an individual has a blower which directs air through apertures in a top panel of a housing. A switch is positioned on the top panel adjacent to the apertures such that when the switch is activated by the individual using the ball of their foot, the toes of the individual are located directly above the apertures. Both a heating device and/or a powder dispenser may be incorporated between the blower and the apertures to either warm the air and/or dispense powder to the toes respectively. An optional timing mechanism may be incorporated to allow the powder to be dispensed automatically after the toes of the foot have had a sufficient time to dry. The air time for drying and/or powder could be set by the user or it could be set to a normal setting.
