20 Best Hard Skin Remover For Feet (Jan 2023 Update)

I like this product. It does a good job of helping remove dry skin. A nice summer goto to help feet stay sandal ready. My only concern is the warning on this. ⚠️ P65 warning. I don't believe I have seen this before need to learn more. Edit. From what I have read a law passed in California to warn residents of cancer /or birth defects by chemicals. These warnings are put out on products that could have very little chemicals of very low risk or opposite …high amounts of high risk. I recommend you DO NOT use while pregnant maybe wear gloves when applying this product.ann.h

First off, this is a very small bottle which felt empty upon receipt. The bottle is hard to squeeze when trying to get the contents out. The lotion itself is really thin. Felt like I was rubbing water on my feet and then scrubbing to get it off. I didn’t find it did much for my feet.MsMel

As the youngest of 4 women in my house I don't think this was ever missing from it's spot in the bathroom. Winter just sucks the moisture out of the skin on my feet and a pumice stone is just a little too agressive for me. This lotion comes out of the bottle almost as thin as water so be careful with that first squeeze. You really only need a little bit to rub on your foot. You may want a bit more as the dead skin melts from your feet. It's just so amazing to see and feel soft feet in the middle of winter! I will be using Pretty Hands and Feet until I can no !onger reach my feet. I'm sure you will be bappy finally finding something that actually works just as promised.renotx

I think that the Finishing Touch Flawless Pedi Electronic Tool File and Callus Remover, Pedicure (B08NX1QJ3Q) is a fantastic product and it would be one of my favorite beauty/self care products, except unfortunately, I continue to have the same issue with this product over and over again. The first one I bought worked pretty well, after charging it of course. But as it was starting to die after two uses, I tried charging it again, but it wouldn't charge. No charging light, no nothing. I even had the "male experts , on everything electrical" try to do something with it, but nothing. A few days later, I gave up and bought another one thinking that I had just got a rare one that had gone bad. This one I used once and when I went to charge it, the light came on and I thought I was in the clear. After it said it had been fully charged, I went to use it but it would not turn on! I tried everything from switching the chargers, searching for more in-depth instruction booklets online or anything that could help, period. After contacting the manufacturer, they replaced it with a coupon for a new one, free of charge. After getting the third one, I finally got to use the product more than one time, BUT after using it a small handful of times, (less than 20), the charge has become so little that I get about 2-3 minutes of use and then it's dead again. Of those 3 minutes, only half that time does it run at a somewhat normal speed, and the other half is super slow and groggy, so I get about a third to a half of one foot completed before I have to charge it completely again! I wish there was a better solution than having to buy a completely new device every 3 months on average. I also worry about the effects it will have on the planet, just from the disposal of the old devices with all the parts and built in batteries to the making of new inventory, etc.crystal .s

Beware I used this and it took forever to do a decent job but my stone is quicker with the same results. Packed it away after shutting it off and an hour later I was hearing this buzzing sound. After searching for the noise I found the machine had turned on. I quickly opened the box and even though the switch was off, the unit was running. I removed the batteries immediately and packed it up to be sent back I can't imagine how this occurred but will not risk future issues. Having to take batteries out after each and every use is ridiculous. Save your moneykmaretired

I have been wanting one of these things for ever, but did not want to pay a lot for one elsewhere. This was an excellent price. It works fantastic!! I did not expect it to work superbly but it does. I have really rough feet from studying dance for the last 30 years. I have used everything from files to sandpaper to cheaper versions of the same product. This REALLY works.seapak3

I received this as a Christmas gift. And used it a few hours after my shower to make sure my feet were nice and dry. I was a little skeptical because, like many people, I am ticklish on my feet. While this doesn't go on the bottom part of your foot, goes close enough!! But the problem areas (my heels and sides of feet), this did an AMAZING job! I fell in love with it right then and there! I was just shocked it worked so well! Simple to follow instructions, easy to clean, though I do wish there was maybe a container to hold the dry skin particles rather then letting them fly all over and maybe a little case to put the unit, brush and extra filer into so they don't get lost or have to sit in the little box they come in. But that's an easy enough fix!! LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!Paula2076

I do not understand how this product received such high reviews. I own a battery operated one and thought I would switch to a cordless filer for convenience. This was expensive and not worth the money. The filer automatically shuts off at the slightest amount of pressure…which means it is constantly shutting off and incapable of filing. You're not allowed to press down AT ALL before the machine stops filing. I guess it's some sort of safety measure, but it makes this awful product ( can't even call it a filer) incapable of doing its job. I highly regret this purchase. I am disappointed that reviews cannot be trusted nowadays due to marketing scams, which this felt like. Save your money and do it manually with other products or get the battery operated one which works %100 better. Waste of money!melinda

lm not the type of person to write reviews but I had to for this. I was looking for a christmas gift from my husband to myself and I really needed something for my feet. I am always barefoot in my house because we have a carpet. I can admit I am not the type of person to exfoliate my feet every week because I rarely leave my house. I came across this electric pedicure that is waterproof. I read all the reviews and did some more research.I figured I would give it a try. It came out to $25 because target had a sale plus I had an extra 10% off because of my red card anniversary and an extra 5% off if I used my red card. Talk about a steal so I went for it. I used it today and I love it my feet are soft and smooth like a baby's bottom. I Did not have to scrub hard or move my hands that much which is perfect. The only downfall is that the attachments are a little troublesome when you are going to detach them,But other than that this is a great product.Jahi

I am a man who gets serious heal callouses and all the little battery operated callous removers are wimpy and nearly useless. This one really works and that's what I wanted. Use it every 2 or 3 days and heals never get a chance to get thick callouses – much easier that the metal files I was using. Count me happy.kranshirebiker

I normally don't write reviews, but this definitely deserved 5 stars! I have tried numerous callus removers and they were all a waste of money. Decided to give this one a try and I don't regret it. It really does smooth out the calluses and make my feet so soft. Just be very careful because it is so easy to grind down too far. I suggest starting on the lowest speed until you get the hang of it. I'm still learning! Anyway, I highly recommend this product and it's worth every penney!cheerdance2005

This is the best! I have tried many different types costing from $10 to $50. Hand held, battery powered and rechargeables. This " professional" model is everything hoped for. Be careful when starting until you become very familiar with the speed and the applied pressure. The number of replacement discs that are included are more than sufficient as I only use the unit for myself. My feet are very, very smooth and callous free. I am very impressed and satisfied!my2006benz

Shipped quickly But I havent used it yet. I pray this works Credo blades are so dull now so I wanted to try this gel. I have really bad calluses on my heels so Im a little skepticalt_hamoudi

I have used the product twice. It is easy to use. It did not burn my skin as it sometimes does at a salon. My feet are much better. My heavy callus buildup will require further treatments. I am grateful to have a product to use at home that works well.1ssmerlie

It worked so well before but the new formula does nothing!!! The active ingredient has been changed from potassium hydroxide to urea. Disappointing.Fatimah

Pedi Vac ….Its a very good design , Very good quality. I like the package too. It is worth trying this product . one of the best I used with Great results. I would recommend it to anyone. by the way its a good Idea for fancy gift.ulla

When you turn it on it keeps cutting off after a few seconds also it bounces around and you have to be careful to grip it good. It is fully charged so this is not the problem. Very bad design waste of money.Cynthia

The size of the item was good and it fits well in my hands. The directions were not clear and it did not work consistently. It was difficult to determine if the product was charged or not.Anne

Seems to be effective. Container was difficult to get used to getting product out. No directions for container, Good value for easy corn but not more expensive brands1troutinme

First of all – great delivery time. Next, thank you for emailing me and telling me how to use the file. It is sharp but not lethal.A bit of boring history. I developed a callus some eight months ago and it was, and has been, VERY painful. During these eight months I have tried many products and files and the darn thingstill hurt like …… well let’s say it hurt.It has affected my walking.I noticed your file whenlooking for something, anythingto get some relief from the pain. I’ve tried callus pads all they do is lift the foot off the callus they don’t remove the source of the pain.I tried your file, not because of anything mentionedin the write up onyour sitegave me any reason to think the file wouldhelp but simply I’dgot to the stage I’d try anything.The file came VERY quickly. After your email I was curious and opened the package and – well you know what women are like they can’t wait to try new things.First off this file DOES remove actually remove dead skin. I was stunned as tohow much it DID remove. Normally you can’t see what skin has been filed off butI remembered what you said andI was careful not to overdo it – the filing I mean.I put my stockings and shoes back on and thought, ‘ah well more waste of money.’ I stood up and walked and to my absolute surprise the pain hadlessened considerably. Mind you I did remove a fair bit of the callus which I had not been able to do before. The previous files I boughtwere nothing like this one of yours.It i.GJ

But a foot grate!Stats: 30 y/o African woman (yes, my feet are a disgrace to womanhood), former waitress.Like others who bought this, my feet have been plagued with hard skin for years. I remember having a PedEgg when I was younger, which worked for a little while but then became useless. Ive tried numerous creams, electronic and manual files with limited success. About two years ago I bought a Groupon for a podiatrist and remember being in awe – my feet were so smooth! I could feel the cold floor again!Alas, it didnt last long and I cant pay the £100 to see him again. Back to DIY pedis.Stumbled across this. I also raised eyebrows at the price but figured I spend more on McDonalds so why not.A.MAZ.ING. Seriously, this would be better described as a foot grate. Definitely feels like one and makes quick work of hard skin. When I get a buildup of hard skin on my heels they discolour but my soles actually looked pink!To those who like me, read the warnings to be careful about going too deep and thought pffft! They dont know my feet! I learned the hard way – you can go too deep. Please be careful. Use short light strokes. Trust me, it doesnt need much.Im planning on using this with the CC foot cream – coronavirus lockdown means Im neglecting my feet so cant speak to long term results. Ive added pictures from today, which is my second time using this. Based on that timeline Ill need to use this once a month to keep on top of things but thats not bad at all. I am curi.NBar

Does exactly what you’d expect it to. Removes all hard skin and leaves your skin feeling brand new like a baby. I used this for my feet and have super soft and smooth feet now as if the hard skin never developed in the first place. AND I even managed to get rid of the hard skin on my hands from gym training which I was very surprised with as didn’t think this would fit with my hands; super soft and smooth hands now too! I should also mention that the build quality is very good. The device is heavy and solid and feels good in the hand. Very impressed and recommend!daniel

The Callus Eliminator is 4 oz. for $13.78 at Sally's. It is a natural callus remover that works amazing. I believe this product is worth the price because 1. It's natural and 2. IT WORKS! The directions say to apply it on to the bottom of your feet only where there are calluses. Apply it using gloves and wrap the feet with plastic wrap and leave on for 3-5 minutes. Once it's over, you can use a foot file to scrape away the callus. This stuff makes this step so easy to do honestly and it definitely saves me time. I like to do this before I use a foot scrub as well. I'll give this 5/5 🌟 and I will continue using this.crowned.g

I’ve spent years trying to tame my dry, calloused feet. I’ve tried rejected all the usual methods. I was trying to get a pedicure every two weeks, but my job keeps me so busy, pedicures were slipping to every three weeks, then four, then …. I’ve used the #kbeauty foot peels, which are great, but take days to work are a lot of work to get the best peeling. Not to mention, my calluses would return within a few weeks you aren’t supposed to use the foot peels that often. I did some research read a bunch of reviews decided to order this product. Game changer! My feet are now smooth, uncallused, uncracked. What’s even better is that without thick calluses, my foot moisturizer can do its job of keeping dry skin at bay. It now has the ability to soak in, imparting all of its goodness benefits. Here is how I use this product for best results. I soak my feet in a tub of warm water for five minutes. I then use my hands to apply a thin layer of the callus eliminator. If you use your hands, make sure to wash them immediately. I’ve also applied this product with a pumice stone. I let it sit on my feet for 5 minutes then I use my microplane rasp to whittle away my calluses. If you use a rasp, be careful not to remove too much skin. It’s better to do the whole routine a week later than to reduce your heels to bloody nubs. Trust me, I speak from experience. 😂. I then wash my feet making sure to remove all of the product. It can be a little hard to remove, so I will often use a soft nail brush to assist me. Lastly, I apply a foot balm a pair of socks to lock in as much moisture as possible. In conclusion, this product is a holy grail product that I will never be without. I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 recommend it with no reservations. In fact, I’m off to use it now! You can find this product on Amazon for $7.99 for 4 ounces. I purchased my second bottle at my local Walmart for $7.99 for 4 ounces.wendy.r

About once a year I have a problem with rubbing toes and the subsequent corn issue. If I keep the pads (two, sticky sides back to back) between toes in the area where this occurs, it takes care of the problem. If I am lazy and do not use them, I will have a reissue. I would be careful with the liquid which works for me with two applications usually. The liquid can burn areas where the skin is normal. Read the warnings. I do not know of another product which works like Dr. Scholl's.Quebein

This always works! Pro tip. Buy the up & up 9 count brand corn cushions as well. The 3 that comes with Dr. Scholls is not enough. I always wrap a flesh tone band-aid around the corn cushion once I apply the liquid. Voila! You’re welcome.shopaholic33

Yes, this liquid does work but be very careful applying it. If you get it on skin that isn't calloused or a corn, or if the skin is cut, it does hurt because it eats away at the skin to remove it. Dissolves it, is the better way to say it I guess. I had a cut on a callous and it got in there and really hurt for days, I've kept bandaids on it else it hurt to walk on it. So be very careful where you apply it. And the pads, or the moleskin they also sell, seriously sticks. You can't take it right back off like a bandaid; it's there for at least a day or two.laura

I’m not sure if this exact one has the medicated stickers that mine came with, but they were super confusing to use. I didn’t understand the instructions at all and had to watch a YouTube video. After taking off the bandage and the medicated desk, the area the discord on it’s completely white. My Calais didn’t come off and now my foot has a white circle on it and it looks creepy!!lianna.d

It works!!! I had 2 small calluses on the ball of my foot. I was able to cut the disc to fit the two separate areas with no issues. I used a bandaid to hold it in place due to the cushion not being large enough to cover both spots. After the 48 hour timeframe, I removed the discs. The ‘seeds’ were still there along with some brown sticky substance. I rubbed gently and the ‘seeds’ came out. THANK GOODNESS. Brown sticky substance remained though lol. There’s a tiny hole where the ‘seeds’ were, but I’m sure it will heal up soon.J

I can't get these things to stay on my feet. The first time I tried one on each foot where I have calluses and within a couple hours, both stickers were coming off. I tried again a couple days later with the remaining two in the package, and really tried to keep the stickers on for the 48 hours required, but I woke up to one of them curled up and hanging off of my foot. The other one is barely hanging on and it hasn't even been 24 hours. Unfortunately this was a complete waste for me and I'm back to the drawing board.Joshua Thuss

Combination of urea and salicylic acid works better than each ingredients on its own. My feet are no longer itchy and the callous is improved a lot. Used twice daily.surf-hb

This is one the best high percentage urea topical skin products available. Most are cream based while this is a non-sticky gel based product. I have used all the major brands when they still required prescriptions. I have calluses on my feet and this helps to keep the calluses soft and easy to remove by shaving them off. The Urea 42% Gel also has no sent or smell which is great. I would highly recommend this product to anyone that is looking for a high percentage urea topical skin treatment.Rick Alsagoff

The soles of my feet become very dry and calloused every winter. While watching My Feet Are Killing Me, I saw a foot doctor recommend urea cream to soften the feet of his patient. I purchased the Ebanel brand and I absolutely will continue to use it to condition my dry feet from now on. My feet have been so sensitive to other creams and lotions, but this item is working so well for me.Karen

KP is caused by hyperkeratosis of the skin, and this product combines 2 very good keratolytic agents: salicylic acid and urea. Though typically used on dry feet, this product is soo good for KP. It smoothes out the bumpiness while also softening the skin. I skill have some red dots, but they're so faint compared to what they used to be. This product just applies like a regular moisturizer, too, not a heavy cream like one would expect.karli.w
