Ped Egg Professional

If you can get past the infomercial stigma, this thing totally rocks. In these lean times when almost everyone is struggling, paying $35 or more for a good pedicure seems a bit lavish, at least for me and a lot of my friends. The Ped Egg is only $9.99, and honestly, I think my feet are smoother after I use it than when I get a professional pedicure. Thank goodness the sterilization techniques at salons have improved, but as a result, most places don't use razors on your feet anymore, and old-school pedicures that made your feet feel like a baby's butt are hard to find. Since, I have not been satisfied with any pedicures. But this little gem does the job just fine. It has a "grater" that you use to exfoliate your feet, and it attaches to a compartment that catches the dead skin. (And it is the yuckiest kind of cool to look at what pours out of the compartment when you dump it; much like not being able to look away from a car accident.) Afterwards, I apply a good foot cream and wear socks to bed. The next morning my feet feel so much smoother and look worlds better. You can purchase one at Target, and in certain locations you can even find replacement grater thing-a-ma-bobs. You can also find them available for purchase online through a Google search. Enjoy your soft feet, and enjoy the wonderfully disgusting ritual of emptying your yucky dead foot skin!
