Skincare Beauty Tip

Footcare



FootcareTo keep your feet in top condition all year long, be sure to remove dry skin only once or twice a week. Using a pumice too often can cause damage to healthy, living skin resulting in cracking and even more dryness.

Start by wetting your feet in warm water and using the rough side of the pumice stone to remove any rough areas, then switch to the finer grain side to smooth the skin.

Also, be sure to moisturize daily to keep dry skin from building up.

I disagree, I use a pumice stone more than once or twice a week, and my feet had never had dry skin!

a pumice is a type of light stone thing. i have one that i got in a kit, but i bet you could find one at a drugstore.

I got one at WalMart. One problem with a pumice stone, though, if you don't take care of it (which I hope you all do) it trps bacteria. Make sure you keep you pumice free of germs. lol
