How to get pretty feet with a pumice stone
First things first: what is a pumice stone? A pumice or foot stone is a stone made up of thousands of sharp, microscopic crystals of volcanic rock. The abrasive nature of the particles makes them ideal for breaking down really tough, callused areas of skin. Soak feet in a warm bath for 15 minutes to soften then starting from the heel, use the pumice stone to gently buff away dead areas of skin, working in circular motions. Repeat several times over callused areas and don’t attempt to remove all your tough skin in one hit. Repeat once a fortnight over a few months to reveal fresher, softer skin.

I haven't used a pumice stone for ages. Back when I did though I didn't moisturise my feet but now I do and so my feet are smooth and I don't need this.

I used to use them as a kid when young on the beach because my mum told me they were good for the feet! I don't bring them home off the beach anymore but maybe I should

Thongs are terrible for feet. But with a little help yours will be smooth again.

I've used pumice stones for years, such a simple way to get smooth feet. Another tip is to put a moisturizer like Nivea Soft on your feet over night, it makes them so soft!

Def need to get on to this! I had one and didn't know what to do with it. But it makes sense that i would have to soak my feet for 15mins before using it. Thanks BH for the tip :)

Sometimes the only tool I want near my feet is my trusty pumice stone - it's especially effective at hardened skin around my heel areas

My pumice stone doesn't really work! I still have very dry and cracked heels despite exfoliating with it every day :(

I have always used a pumic stone on my feet and my feet are always soft and have no cracks as i think it looks terrible with cracked hard heels

Probably chemists but definitely the beach! The beach near me is guaranteed to have them scattered about.
