PinkInTheBlue Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Oh my goodness! I have the worst, most embarrassing feet. All of the edge of my heel, both outside edges of the balls of my feet and the outside edge of my big toe have always been just horrible. They are hard, thick and cracked. I nearly have an entire shelf in my bathroom dedicated to the lotions, stones, etc to try and help. Lotions, pumice and socks only helped marginally after about a month. It's been so frustrating! So, to add to my collection I bought this weird PedEgg thing last night. It's grossed me out since I first saw it and I was way too scared to try. It was amazing!!! My heels have no cracks and my feet look human! I'm going to HAVE to wear sandals today because I'm so excited. :) This may seem trivial to many of you but if you knew how bad my feet had been, you'd understand. ;) I hope this helps someone else.

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 So what is it? Is it a stone that smooths the feet? (That's what I imagine in my mind's eye). Where do you get a PedEgg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serendipity Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I'm happy for you!!! This sounds like something I need. My feet are just terrible... Where did you get this wonder item? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Part-Time Homeschooler Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Someone on Makeup Alley posted photos of her feet before using the PedEgg and after -- the difference was amazing! I'm going to get one as soon as my Walgreens rebate gift card arrives! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkInTheBlue Posted May 4, 2008 Author Share Posted May 4, 2008 I bought it last night at Bed, Bath and Beyond. I've seen it in several places though. It looks like a white egg but inside the case is what looks like...well, a fine cheese grater! That's why I didn't buy it for so long. I hate the way the pumice stone feels on my skin and I imagined this nasty cheese grater thing being worse. It didn't bother me at all. I used no real pressure at all. It's very gentle and you follow it with their file buffer to smooth it all out. I wish I had thought to make before and after pics but I never imagined it would have made this much difference. I think it was about $10 and 3 refill graters were something like $10 for later. http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/search/search.aspx?order_num=-1&sstr=pedegg&dim=1&nty=1& Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracey in TX Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Thanks! I don't have time for pedicures since I began hs and it's evident on my heels. Thanks for the info--will buy one tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kortney in AL Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I've seen these in Rite-Aid drug stores around here. I've been tempted to try one, too. Now I will. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3lilreds in NC Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I've been wanting to try one, but wasn't sure I could believe the ads. Thanks for posting your awesome review!! (This place is definitely better than Google.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Thanks a ton! I too had seen the infomercials but was skeptical. My "people" want their own also. We might do better price wise on the infomercial just cuz buying so many. But thanks! Pamela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamom3 Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 My mom picked me up one while in TN and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! The best thing I have ever used!!!:hurray: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in Orlando Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I almost bought one last weekend, but wasn't sure it would be good. Thanks for the endorsements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheBrink Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I have icky feet, too. I've seen this at Walgreens and was tempted to get one; now I will! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_Edgerton Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I have this type of thing, but by the Microplane company. I got it a couple of years ago...my feet have been awful for such a long time. I too have tried lotions, soaks, scrubs, stones, and the special socks....nothing works for me. This has helped, but you must keep up with it...once a week for sure, otherwise you will still get the cracks. Also whenever possible wear socks! I love sandals so this is the worst time of year.:glare: Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've seen the commercials for these. They have them for sale at my local Wal-Mart, but I have to admit that the commercials just gross me out. Glad that they work! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindyg Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I used this just one time -- the night before I read this thread! And I have to agree. It did a good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vida Winter Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I bought two of these this week at Bed Bath & Beyond, one was a gift for a friend of my dd's who suffers with her feet so much. I was apprehensive about using it but I love it! My feet weren't all that bad to begin with but they feel wonderful now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Amy in MS Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 OK, I thought I was the only one ever to use this. I found one in Walgreens the other day and bought it. I've always had gross feet. Major callouses (used the saw them off with steak knife as a kid). GROSS!!! I love my PedEgg! Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Oh, thank you all. My feet are horrible, and I'm so sad that I haven't been able to wear sandals in the beautiful weather we've been having. I'd seen it online and was skeptical too, but your reviews have convinced me. I'm going right out to get one today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommyX8 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 It rocks!!! I saw them at Walmart last week. I bought one from Drugstore.com but I think that I saw them in CVS. I have super bad, dry feet. I can put everyone else to shame. I used this once and there was a HUGE difference. I didn't end up using it for another week as once it did its thing, my feet stayed really soft and scale-free. It is basically a microplane that captures the "residue." Worth $10 for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 My official results are in: Holy moly. Seriously, I would have paid $100 for this thing. I CANNOT believe how well it worked. My feet are awful, and I've used files for a long time. But files take a long lead time where I had to keep up on the work and keep going down further and further. This thing? Sandal-ready in one day. I wanted to cry. I'm blown away. Thank you, Jessica! ETA: I forgot to add that DH wants his own now too :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkInTheBlue Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 I'm blown away. Thank you, Jessica! ETA: I forgot to add that DH wants his own now too :lol: I am so glad it worked so great for you also. :) My husband also used mine where he had a couple of spots. Aren't they cute? ;) I use mine, gently, about every 5 days to keep it up. It's been perfect. However, I overdid it once and really paid. Let's just say the feet are not like the mouth or eye. They do NOT heal quickly! ugh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
