Girls and Their Toys! The Ped Egg


So I think everyone generally accepts that the things you see on infomercials aren't going to work.  However, I'd heard some whispers that the Ped Egg might actually work.  So when I cam across it at BJs, I decided to pick it up.  It doesn't take much for me - I'm weak, I admit it.

They say "The original PedEgg® is the revolutionary foot file that you’ve seen nationally advertised on TV. It’s the newest and fastest way to make your feet feel smooth and healthy with NO MESS! The secret is PedEgg®’s precision micro-files that gently remove calluses and dead skin to give your feet the incredible baby soft look and feel that everybody loves."  I say, this cheese-grater in the shape of an egg actually works.

Getting it out of the package was one of the hardest parts.  Otherwise, it's a snap (literally) to put together.  You just rub it lightly back and forth over the dry or calloused areas and the shavings get trapped in the bottom of the egg.  It can be a little difficult to twist the cheese-grater top off of the egg to toss the disgustingness that trapped inside, but you definitely need to toss the shavings frequently, otherwise they can sneak their way out of the cheese-grater holes when you're doing the filing.  Also, be careful not to overdo it, which can be tempting.  The callouses on the bottom of your feet are there for a reason, and you don't want to leave them completely raw.

Now, I do have to say that I don't get pedicures as often as I should, in order to save money.  Plus, I never have them use the razor on my feet because I think it's gross and unsanitary.  That may mean I have more dry/calloused areas on my feet than others, so obviously that would make my results seem more dramatic.  I don't care, I think it's worth the $10 bucks I spent.
