Get the Softest, Smoothest Feet With These Pumice Stones

Not to sound like a negative Nancy, but winter is the absolute worst. The lack of humidity and cold weather dry out my feet, leaving them cracked and rough. That’s why I keep pumice stones handy in my bathtub. If you don’t have pumice stones, you need one. Trust me. Your feet will thank you—or, at least, they would if they could talk.

If you’re wondering what a pumice stone is, here’s the scoop. Pumice stones are basically light-yet-abrasive rocks. Formed when lava and water mix together, they help soften and smooth skin by buffing away rough parts. To use a pumice stone, just run it under warm water and add some soap. Move the stone in circular motions over calluses and rough parts, then marvel at your newly soft-as-a-baby’s-bottom feet.

To help you find the right pumice stone, we compiled this list of our favorites.
