What It Is:
These electronic foot filers use a spinning roller to slough off the dead, callused skin from the bottom of your feet. Just soak your feet for 20-30 minutes (or use after your shower), then gently roll the device over your rough spots for a few seconds on each location.
What You'll Get:
As a former ballet dancer and frequent wearer of high heels, my feet are pretty gnarly, so I wasn't expecting much in the way of drastic results. I was wrong. Both of these files gave me smoother, softer feet after just one use. And even though I have to use them after each shower to maintain that softness, the time commitment is mere minutes -- worth it for baby-soft soles. The Instrumental Beauty device uses a micro-mineral roller, which was slightly softer than the granulated Amopé roller. If your feet are more sensitive or more callused, choose accordingly.
What You'll Save: $180/year
If you get monthly pedicures, an electronic foot filer will cut down your visits to the nail salon by at least half. After all, I still can't paint my toes professionally.
