Jen's Experience: I am always embarrassed when I go in for a pedicure. All my towering stilettos, pointy toes, strappy shoes and towering platforms equals some formidable calluses and blisters. I thought since I have an afternoon at the spa planned today that I might try to help them out a little bit by doing some of the work in advance. On the other hand, I hate scrubbing my feet, but nevertheless, I hopped in the tub with my Pedistone and Sugar Scrub and went to work.

I tried the Pedistone alone at first, and started scrubbing. And scrubbing. And scrubbing. And eventually I gave up and moved on to the sugar scrub. With the sugar scrub alone, it at least made my feet all uniformly pink and clean looking, although still no dent in the dead skin. The Pedistone and the Sugar Scrub together worked better than either product alone, although I think my calluses wore down the Pedistone more than it wore down my calluses.

The first time I tried all this, I took my nice clean tootsies straight to bed without using the Foot Creme (I dislike having ooey gooey cream all over my feet when I'm walking around on my hardwoods even more than I dislike scrubbing my feet). A miscalculation on my part, since the next day I woke up and my feet looked almost the same as before I did all that scrubbing.

So after that, I've started using the Foot Creme along with the Socks and the sum of all the products makes the process somewhat worthwhile. The Foot Creme alone does have a really nice texture that does seem to stay put a little longer than other foot creams I've used. I can't say I would wear the socks to bed on a regular basis though. They're not exactly sexy, and it is getting quite toasty outside. They seem to come off pretty easily when I move around, but just for lounging on the couch, they do my feet a lot of good.

Overall, my feet were perhaps a bit too much of a project for this collection of products, but based on the results I've seen, I'm optimistic that when I return from the spa today that I can maintain my soft feet with a little occasional work.
