    So it is summer and I wear little canvas slip on shoes or thongs everywhere at home and a lot of time in the garden. Only a few weeks in and my feet are looking decidedly shabby.
    They get the nailbrush treatment in the shower but still have a impressive ingrained dirt look!
    Any tips for getting them looking a bit more respectable?

    A good going over with a pumice stone after a good soaking and lots of coconut oil or peppermint oil rubbed in after. Preferably get someone to do it for you, noice! :)

    Ooooh, that sounds good! Just have to learn to sit still long enough to let them soak - something I am not very good at! :)

    i tried this before when i was on holiday in Asia, very ticklish but i felt squeamish bcos they were pecking at your legs. Not painful but it felt like little things nibbing at your toes and you imagine that slowly your feet is being eaten alive. Haha, that said to maintain nice feet, everynight before i sleep, i rub either baby oil or body lotion all over my feet and put socks over them and go to bed. the next day, its super soft :)
