    Would love some advice on making my feet pretty! I think feet are disgusting, and the skin on the soles of my feet has become hard. Wondering what others use to have soft, pleasant feet?

    hi, i use a ped-egg thingy on me feet to get rid of dead skin, keep nails trimmed, and put on inexpensive moisturiser all over & pop on a pair of clean cotton socks to allow mouisturiser to absorb.

    I just got given a gift of a Micro-Pedi. Best thing ever! It's like a sander for your feet. Makes them very soft and it's battery operated so no work involved!

    I believe it came from McCabes pharmacy but you can get them online too.

    I have tried many creams on my very dry feet over the years. The best by far has to be Eucerin Foot cream. I use this every night and I can honestly say that my dry skin has disappeared. I do a full pedicure every two weeks which includes soaking my feet in warm soapy water which helps to soften any build up of skin, which I then pumice off. The important thing with these creams is to use them daily, that is the only thing which gets results. Hope this is of some help to you. Good luck.:)

    Clip/trim/file your nails. Soak your feet in a basin of warm water, bath salts are nice in it. Then use a a foot file buffer thing to get rid of dead skin, or give them a good scrub with a big nail brush. Pat dry then massage in some moisturiser. Then paint your favourite colour!

    Soap and Glory do a foot cream that you put on at night with cotton socks. Your feet will be so soft the next morning! I think it's called Heal Genius. Lovely product, think I'll use it tonight!

    Soak your feet in a basin of warm water and Epsom salts. After 15 mins you can scrape off the dead skin. Very invigorating and free!
