Sweet & Soft Piggies

I'm new to Pinterest and like most, am seriously obsessed. I have been on for about a week and have over 20 boards. Yes, I am an addict. Most people claim they pin and pin and pin and never use anything they pin. Well here is my first use of one of the first "beauty tricks" I found...

Working in NYC, walking 13 blocks one way day by day - my feet tend to be tired, sore and let's face it, not so pretty. My nail salon loves me! I'm there every 2 weeks.

Also thanks to  my fabulous mother (who I love dearly, but hate this gene) my feet are naturally dry and cracked. So I do what any "normal" person would do...shower, load up with moisturizer and stick on some man socks, wake up with soft feet. This is a daily process.

So when I saw this on Pinterest below - I thought, easy enough! Must try. Here is my review for the cracked/blackened feet remedy:

 




Step 1 - Put shaving cream on your feet.
(my kitty is chilling in the backround)



Step 2 - In a bucket or sink, combine equal parts warm water and Listerine.
Step 3 - Soak a small hand towel in the solution of water and Listerine.
 
Step 4 - While the shaving cream is still on your feet wrap the wet hand towl around your feet and let sit for 30 minutes.
 
 
Step 5 - After 30 minutes, use the towel to rub your feet. Some of the calloused and discolored skin will rub off.
Step 6 - Apply a healthy amount of lotion to your feet.
 
REVIEW:  IT WORKS! All the dry skin/cracked skin has seriously just "come off." They are SUPER soft and tingling :)

If I had left it on maybe another half hour (1 hour total) I bet my heels (the extra rough parts) would be 100% too!


 
 
TOTALLY recommend this! Pinterest, you are amazing.
