The Good Ol’ Trusty Foot File

by Sophia on September 24th, 2007

Sometimes, when I feel my soles, and they feel rough and dry, it makes me feel so darn old. No amount of foot butter would remedy to that unless you scrub off some skin!

For your everyday feet maintenance, the foot file is definitely must have inside the shower. As you indulge in your daily luxurious shower, do not forget to give some lovin` to your feet as they are most exposed to dirt and the elements, and they surely take you wherever you want to be taken!

In the middle of your shower experience, get your trusty foot file, and start buffing your soles to get rid of the dirt accumulated on the feet ( especially when you wear open toed shoes or flip flops ), and buff around it not only to get rid of dirt, but also give your feet a softer and smoother appearance. That way, your shower experience would be complete as you are literally squeaky clean from head to toe!

Shoewawa recommends the Diamancel Foot File, which is made of diamond ( which will probably last a long, long time ) If not, any good foot file would do, as long as it does its job! I did have some really inexpensive, just-bought-anywhere foot files and they did quite okay!

Beauty Gizmo added tip : Now that you have your soles squeaky clean and smooth, apply foot butter generously to keep them soft! Or better yet, after applying foot butter, sleep with socks on for the foot butter to be absorbed to the feet, as you wake up with baby-soft feet!

    ANOTHER GREAT TIP IS TO USE VASELINE OR LOTION ON YOUR FEET AND THEN PUT SOCKS ON. IT MIGHT NOT FEEL TO COMFY, BUT IF YOU DO THIS BEFORE BED YOUR FEET WILL BE SOO NICE SMOOTH AND MOSITURIZED THE NEXT DAY!

    Karen : Great advise! :) Petroleum Jelly is definitely the all time lifesaver :)

    Brittni : You are so right - they are always harassed, and it won’t hurt to give them some pampering :)
