hard skin on feeties

If you soak your feet in a mixture of white vinegar and hot water for 10 minutes or so before you ped egg the hard skin comes off REALLY easily.
...and the vinegar also softens the skin and kills off any nasties on your feet as well
Use about 3 cups of vinegar to a half bucket of water. Also almond oil is a great moisturiser for afterward, very cheap and a little goes a long way...olive oil works just as well if that is all you have.0 -

Soluble aspirin in your foot bath/soak is the way to go. Read it in a magazine years ago and have used it ever since. Dry/hard skin rubs off with a towel afterwards. Followed by whatever cream you prefer and socks.Freebies Received: Supersavvyme bag, Olay moisturiser, Barbara Daly/Tesco Mascara, Seeds of Change Choccie, Yorkshire Tea Kenyan teabags, Tesco mobile sim cards x 2.
Won: Yorkshire Tea goodie box0 -

You can pick it up in most health food/beauty product stores and some chemists. Also on amazon/ebay etc.0 -
I know its not cheap and therefore totally un-MSE! But Burts Bees foot creams, both the peppermint and the coconut ones are brilliant for moisturising your feet. If you know anyone who's off to the US, get them to buy you a couple of tubes. A little goes a very, very long way and they're less than $10.“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.”
