A: Keeping your feet soft and smooth is indeed a challenge. If you thinking of trying a pedicure, look for a salon that offers a Paraffin Wax Treatment. Your feet and ankles are brushed with warm paraffin wax and encased in plastic wrap. This will have a temporary softening effect, but don't stop there! Invest in a good foot file to gently scrape away dead skin from your heels, and to soften any callouses (Diamencel files are wonderful - you can find them at Beauty.com). Find a really rich body cream - Kiehls Creme de Corps is as good as they come - and slather your feet nightly. Cover them in an old pair of sweat socks and sleep tight! In the morning your feet will be baby soft!
