I have tried every foot file in the universe (well maybe not but it feels like it!)
I suffer from awful hard skin it will never go away ever I keep it at bay best I can but once a week I have to attack my feet with various devices I own.
What not to waste your money on tried tested and failed!
Ped egg- Im not keen on this its harsh and doesn't get right the way down to the smoothness that us women desire.
scholl foot file- Just useless infact I think its about £7 of uselessness!!! doesnt do anything for bad dry skin.
pumice stone- what does this actually do ( It didn't even remove the fine top layer!)
Scholl Cracked Heel Repair Cream - You still have to file the skin down first but once you've done that its ok but nothing special.
Scholl- hard skin pen - do not waste you money this is a gimmick and a crap one at that!
Boots gorgeous foot file - nope nothing gorgeous about it a bit like a ped egg
Soap and glory foot buffer - Nah wasn't very good like a grater and it hurt.
Any cream will not work well unless you get rid of some of the build up of dry skin always file feet first. Metal files are not very good.
What to get or at least try
Bodyshop File- expensive £5 for what it is but it works it will file away your hard skin nicely.
Boots smoothing foot file - Not as good as bodyshop one but will do the job.
none of these files are metal they are like a big nail file but big enough for a foot.
Ok so you have filed away the hard/dry skin now to moisturise
Argan oil mixed in with E45 keeps your feet soft for a bit longer than normal
Soap & glory body butter has rave reviews
Good old Vaseline works for me and is cheap as chips.
Most creams will work but the oily ones are better, rub in feet pop a pair of cotton socks on and sleep in them over night. Not a solution but a help
The latest thing out is Udder cream yes you read this properly the stuff they use on cows udders don't fear they have made a human version called udderly smooth you can buy this via Amazon or eBay Im going to try this when I get back from my holiday its anything from £10 onwards so try research the best deal.
NEWTONS FOOT THERAPY
THE ORIGINAL CHIROPODY SPONGE
have a bar of soap handy and a towel
Soak your feet in warm water for a bout 5 mins
Dip sponge into water and rub on soap make sure you get a good covering with soap
release one of your feet from the water and start scrubbing with the hard sponge
do this for a few minutes traveling around the hard skin areas.
soak feet to wash residue off and dry foot
repeat on other foot.
It works a treat I love this as makes your feet like new.
