I am on my feet about four hours a day for work, so they take a bit of a beating. No matter how much lotion I use, or how many pumices and foot files I've tired, they just don't work well. Either they don't really smooth my feet, or they are so rough as to be painful. My fibro makes my feet unusually sensitive, so this also keeps me from getting a professional pedicure.

However, in the Ped Egg, I seem to have found the answer!

This little dandy is ergonomically designed, so it's easy to grip, even when my hands are weak or sore. It's designed to catch the 'shavings' so the ickiness isn't all over my floor and it really works! My feet are the smoothest they've been in...forever. And it is truly gentle. You don't have to 'grind' the callouses off. Instead, you rub the Egg on your feet in a gentle back-n-forth motion. After using the 'blade' side to get your callouses tamed, you can switch to the 'finishing' pad (a little piece of fine-grit sandpaper, that you stick to the lid) and smooth out the last of
the roughness.

My sensitive feet weren't bothered in the least by all of this. Now my heels and toes are ready for my sandals!
Easy on the feet, easy on the hands, and also, at just $10, easy on the wallet! Mine was purchased at Wal-Mart, but I've seen them at Walgreens, Target, and Bed Bath and Beyond. If you shop through the link below at Amazon.com you help support this site!
