Yet Another Reason to Keep a Pumice Stone in Your Shower
Tuesday September 11, 2007
Today's "Gawker Stawker" celebrity blog has a hilarious bit about designer Stella McCartney, pictured left: Just saw stella mccartney on 41st and 5th. She is uber thin and loves the spotlight but the back of her feet is real crusty. I have never saw that much crust, not even on a new york pizza. She looks better in person though.
Dried-out, alligator feet are a huge beauty faux pas, especially this time of year when everyone's clapping around in flip-flops. To keep feet soft, I recommend keeping a pumice stone in the shower and giving the bottoms of your feet a three-minute scrub at the end of every shower. Follow with moisturizer.

Ditch the pumice stone if you are training for a marathon, though!!! Your Muumuus to Marathon reporter needs to keep her calluses intact as they develop, to help protect her feet from blisters.
Calluses are distance walker/runners friends. Marathon training means no pretty feet for the next 9 months!
That is a really good idea and, if used gently, pumice stones are good for knees and elbows.
