The Secrets To Softer And Smoother Teet

Give your feet a makeover with these product picks

Just to make this cold winter’s day a little more exciting, I have some news that will perk you up: spring is just four weeks away. Hooray!

I don’t know about you, but I’m so ready for the warmer months to arrive. - although I’m not sure how ready my feet are! They’ve been so busy hibernating underneath layers of socks and stockings for the past three months that the idea of open-toed sandals is scaring the life out of them.

This means it’s the perfect time to inject some life back into neglected feet – and there are so many tools available that can help you do just that. Simply consult our foot 101 guide below and you’ll be on your way to softer soles in no time.

1.) Emjoi PediSmooth Original – This all-in-one device buffs, cleans and massages the base of the foot. It rotates 360 degrees for about 30 times per second without damaging the skin. Such a champion tool. Sounds like a machine Batman would use, no?

2.) Revlon Heavy Duty Toenail Clipper – Toenails can sometimes be rather nasty to clip with a regular nail trimmer. This clipper does a great job at digging into the really coarse, tough corners of the nail with its sharp blades.

3.) Manicare Corn Plane – This corn remover is a winner for your feet. Made from sterile steel, this tool scrapes off dirty bits from the hardest part of your feet within minutes. Make sure you use it on dry skin only.

4.) The Body Shop Footsie Roller – Store this foot roller under the coffee table or work desk and roll your feet over it ever so often. It stimulates the blood circulation and really eases the foot cramps and aches.

5.) Ecotools Bamboo Moisture Socks – There’s nothing better than pampering your feet and these socks help seal moisture in. Put these on after moisturising your feet before bed and they’ll prevent your sheets from getting greasy cream on them.

6.) Crabtree & Evelyn Wooden Nail Brush – Use a this brush to ensure your nail beds are clean, dirt free and a perfect canvas for your fave polish.

7.) The Body Shop Foot-Shape Pumice Stone – How adorable would this look in the shower? Use a pumice stone on a weekly basis on hard skin to scrub off calluses and dry skin, especially around the heels and between the toes. Don’t be too aggressive with the scrubbing and move in circular motion.

8.) Manicare Ceramic Stone Foot File – Use this double-sided foot file to buff and smooth really rough surfaces of your feet. These are very gentle on the skin, so feel free to use them daily in the shower.

Which of these foot tools do you use regularly? And which ones you can’t wait to try?

I use a foot roller once in a while. Great article with lots of helpful tips, and the toes are so cute!

Stone foot fiels are so great for feet

I use a roller under my desk and it feels AMAZING on my feet, especially in summer! :)

Nice and helpful article. I dont use a pumice stone because I tend to keep using it until I scrape my skin off. I am interested in the Emjoi because it seems like it would be easy to use and no more razor cuts!!

I have a new love. Soap & Glory products. Their foot cream (heel genius) is unreal. In fact, ALL their stuff is amazing. The heel genius smells absolutely divine, and it just feels gorgeous. Ladies, you gotta try it.

It's not on the list but I love the body shop pumice stone peppermint foot scrub. And Palmers peppermint lot magics, there's something about peppermint and feet that does it for me.

The socks sound like a great idea cause I hate moisturising my feet after a bath only to find most of it has rubbed off.

Rose_P 3 Sep 2012 11:25 AM

There is nothing worse than the look of rough looking feet. I put moisturiser on mine when I get into bed, and then put my bed socks on. I do like the look of the footsie roller. Might have to investigate that one.

Footsie roller from the body shop is great. I need to try out the buffer-massager recommended!

Makeup Maven 21 Aug 2012 8:02 AM

I use a pumice and a foot file regularly, along with my heal balm. I love the sound of the emjoi, I might just have to invest in one.

Emjoi sounds good, i will have to seek out where to buy it

stackcats 16 Aug 2012 8:59 AM

I've been using Scholl Party Feet Smoothing Foot File - works ver well!

Tinaaa 15 Aug 2012 6:54 PM

i think the best thing for softer feet is the pumice stone and lots of olive oil and sock, before bed :)

Chickybabe1 12 Aug 2012 8:22 AM

During winter I give my toe nails a break from the nail polish & just use a hydrating foot cream and put on socks before bed.

Jade21 10 Aug 2012 9:45 AM

Summer is coming and I will have to pay attention to your great tips.

Divine Diva 9 Aug 2012 3:39 AM

I always exfoliate my feet to keep them looking there best and recently tried out the Baby Foot which I loved. :P

Platinum Ms 8 Aug 2012 11:54 PM

Love No 4 as I love a good foot massage and I can see myself using the roller on a regular basis.

Taylah211 8 Aug 2012 9:36 PM

I could definitely give my feet some more love this winter. These tips sound amazing.

brianna993 8 Aug 2012 8:28 AM

i cant wait until winter is over because then i wont have dry itchy skin and cracked lips and heels

Belle88 8 Aug 2012 6:58 AM

Mu poor feet don't get much attention compared to the rest of my body :( I have used a pumice stone and foot brush before and they have helped to smooth out the dry skin under my feet. Moisturising is key! I've also tried moisture socks which were great!
