Review - Honeycat Foot Scrub



Girls, here's something that's sure to tingle your tired tootsies. "I'M IN HEAT", cinnamon, ginger, and brown sugar foot scrub mmm...Your paws, I mean, feet will feel like cotton balls after using this yummy treat, for weary feet. Packed with Shea Butter, Sweet Almond oil, and Cocoa butter. Come and get it! Size 16oz $25.00

This scrub not only works well -- it smells heavenly in the process. The combination of scents is just incredible -- how can something that smells so great actually do such a job on tough feet. I am not speaking of everyone's feet but mine were pretty tough until they met Honeycat Foot Scrub. This majical foot potion (in the form of a scrub) just took all the roughness away and left them feeling so soft and smooth. I have had good results with other foot scrubs, but this seems to actually leave my feet in even better condition. It is a bit pricey but you do get a good amount. Guess, what -- it is on EBay right now with the auction starting at .99 with 8.95 s+h. It might be worth it to place a bid and see if you can beat the price of $25.00 plus S + H. Hey, if it gets up there in the auction you just stop bidding and go to the website. Either way, you will be glad you did

Review - Plum Island Soap Co Salt & Sand Foot Scrub


$10.75 for an 8 oz jar $10.75

As you can see from the picture, you get a generous amount of foot scrub for a mere $10.75. You would think with a posh boutique line you would pay double. I am so in love with this line. I swear it’s a diamond in the Plum Island rough! I am not the kind of person that goes to get pedicures or paint my toe nails but I like to take care of my feet, going to the gym, working, running around after my kitties keeps me on my tootsies so when I have the chance to chill with a scrub from now and then, I do. There is no better scent than peppermint and especially for the feet, it invigorates my feet and instantly sloughs away the days turmoil. I use this scrub on wet feet but not in the shower; I sit on the side of the tub so I can rinse it all away afterwards. The scent is cool and refreshing, the scrub rough but not too harsh. The result soft smooth feet that feel relaxed.. I also want to point out that this doesn’t have too much oil in it, some scrubs have too much oil, leaving greasy almost coated feeling feet behind. This leaves my feet ready for shoes or fluffy socks. They are soft and smooth but not greasy. I can’t wait for the holidays, cause this better be in my stocking! Perfect!

Review - Linden Leaves Footspa Minikit


Containing an exfoliating stone, foot scrub and foot massage cream this minikit is the perfect gift to give or take away with you for a relaxing and indulgent pedicure experience.

Mama's got some hard-worked feet, y'all. These puppies walk around a lot. Yesterday I walked from 53rd and Park to 7th and 1st. (Google Map it if you're confused by those numbers.) And since I do love me a cute shoe with a high heel, the feet inside can get a little gnarly. Enter the Linden Leaves Footspa Minikit. Comprised of a small jar of their pumice scrub, a small jar of the massage cream, and a pumice stone to rub away the rough spots, the kit makes a great gift for someone you can write a stupid card to that says something punny like "You've been running through my head all day...take a load off with this."

I liked the scrub; it's basic and it works fine. You can probably find something similar at your local drugstore, though, for a lot cheaper. And the pumice stone was a nice touch (though it was insanely difficult to extract it from the vacuum-sealed package in which it came). The real standout in the little kit is the massage cream - it's thick and rich, and smells like cucumbers. Get your sweetie to do the massaging for you and his or her hands will be soft to the touch for hours! Each component of the minikit can be purchased separately on their website, so if you're gifting, get the set, but if it's just for you, I'd recommend just getting the massage cream.

Review - Linden Leaves Foot Scrub


Tiny exfoliating grains of natural pumice combined with moisture replensishing sweet almond oil make this foot scrub highly effective at removing dry skin, leaving your feet soft, smooth and rejuvenated.

This foot scrub is deceptively wonderful. When you first open it nothing special pops into your head. It smells natural, not particularly wonderful, but definitely not bad. The consistency is very nice, but it really doesn’t feel like you are doing any extra-ordinary exfoliating on you tootsies. It is so gentle and smooth, and fine that I didn’t really think I could possibly be doing those pesky calluses any damage at all. When I rinsed, however, I realized how nice my feet looked. Like even though I didn’t hurt myself (which I’m sure isn’t the point, but what I have always associated with “exfoliating foot scrub”) I could actually come out of the tub with smooth, almost shiny skin on my feet. My experience couldn’t have been better really. The dead skin is completely gone, and I have only used it twice. I’m a fan, and I love that it came from New Zealand, so exotic…..
