One of the worst feelings to me is when my feet feel rough and dry. I have found a great product I want to share with all of you – Pedi-Relax ®.  The first thing that caught my attention is the fact that it is made with essential oils, such as tea tree, lavender, thyme, sweet almond, and sage. Pedi-Relax comes in a 3-piece set, which includes the Intense Hydrating Cream (for dry and damaged feet), Exfoliating Cream (to keep feet feeling smooth) and Protective Barrier cream (prevents blisters).

I know the poor economy has caused a lot of us to cut back on certain pleasures in our life. Most people are staying home and watching television instead of going out to the movies. Others are carpooling to fight the fluctuating gas prices.

On the other hand, some people are taking a lack of concern in their health and refraining from purchasing prescription medications, which is a necessity for many .

According to the Center for Studying Health System Change in Washington, D.C., due to the increase in prescription cost, most of those who have chronic conditions (making it crucial to continue their meds) are not purchasing them because they simply cannot afford to do so. More »

I’m a big fan of all things nail related. As a proud owner of strong nails that naturally grow quickly, I take great pride in having pretty finger and toenails. Whenever we get to try out a new nail product for Beauty Chat, I’m all over it. In this case, I was intrigued.

Barielle got its start making hoof conditioners for million-dollar racehorses, and over the course of their 30+ year history, ended up using an improved version of the formula to create a line of nail, hand and foot care products.

Personally, I liked the products I tried out. The Barielle Cuticle Replenisher with mango butter worked well and left my cuticles feeling soft and more smoothly shaped. It appeared to last a good while throughout the day and had a really nice smell to it, which wouldn’t make or break my decision on whether to buy the product, but was certainly an added bonus.

Ok, I know you have all seen the commercials, probably walked by it in the store, and I know you have asked yourself…does it really

work, it seems so gross? Well, I am here, as your resident foot snob, to say…YES!

The PedEgg ™ is FABULOUS! I tried it for the first time at my sister’s last month, and I have been hooked ever since. The PedEgg is super simple to use, and it really does make your heels soft and smooth.

With the rising cost of everything, I was in desperate need to find something to assist me in my at-home-pedis. Not being able to make it to my weekly pedicures, I had started to feel my feet get super yucky. They were getting dry and rough since I have been wearing my flip-flops all summer.
