Does the Emjoi callus remover work best on feet before or after showering? Thanks

It's best to use it when dry. Place a towel on the floor while watching TV, That's how I use mine. It's a great product. Dry feel works best. Hope you enjoy it too.

You want to use it before showering while your feet is completely dry and not soaked in water.

I find that the Emjoi works far more effectively BEFORE showering! Great product....especially the one that plugs in. It has more power than the battery-operated one.

It didn't work for me, I even bought the green ones but still no big difference, if u have real hard calluses, get something else.i try before and after shower.

Charlene, you might want to use a towelette if you are not using it in thew shower. I use mine in the shower which it is designed for. I got it to try and get my kids to wash their face more often. I actually buy a facial scrub at the Dollar tree that has the same active ingredient as the high priced blemish medication at the other stores and I use it in the shower by just squeezing a little on the facial brush. Very simple and easy and it has lasted me for 2 years and is still going strong. I have only replaced the batteries once. I would highly recommend. Leaves the face feeling smooth and clean. It also comes with a brush for the body, a soft foam brush that I am not sure what to do with and a stone for the feet.

Yes, it is good for callused feet. Continued use has helped skin stay much smoother.

I use it straight on the bottoms of feet (even my grandchildren). May want to dilute if you have sensitive skin on other areas. You can determine the ratio for dilution 1:1 should work for most. Could dilute more if needed.

I have severe dry and thick callouses on my heels. The first thing I do is use the potato peeler to remove excess and then soak in the tub to soften the remainder. then, I get mu pumice stone, apply the eliminator all over my foot and concentrae on my heels. Let remain 3-4 minutes and then stat scrubbing with the pumice stone. I do my whole foot iincludig the ends of my toes. After sufficient skin has been removed, then I take my little scrub brush and brush all over. When thoroughly rinsed, apple lotion and socks until it has all soaked in--preferably overnight.

Put it on after taking a shower (before going to bed), shower the next morning. Best effective if used at bedtime, you rest better withit on then.

You can use it to remove dead skin from feet and elbows. Works particularly well on the heel where the skin can become slightly thick as a normal result of your body protecting itself. When the skin thickens on your feet it's in response to friction from shoes, etc. For me this area requires more "oomph" than what I would get using the ped egg or any hand tool. I love mine!!!

I've been using it on my feet and it works very well. I have used the coarsest roll but there are roll attachments that are finer that might work on dry skin. I don't really have callouses and it helps make my feet nice and smooth.

Not if they are really thick as you have to use it over and over and over, I had a pedicure where they remove calluses and now am using Pretty Feet where the calluses were so they don't build up again. Hope this helps.

Norwex has a Bathroom Scrub Mitt that you might prefer better for this. If you have severe enough water stains you might like to purchase the Descaler with it. It removes calcium, lime and rust deposits. I have used it on my clogged shower heads and it worked great!

My feet are very dry especially under the toes, no cracks no calluses. Used it 3 days in row saw results. I use it every other day now. Dry feet gone...

I left it on for a week. what I had was a thick callus on the outer edge of my foot due to working on my feet on concrete floors for the last thirty years. And yes it took off several layers but i did have to peel them off. If I do it again I will only leave it on half the time.

I have done both-works either way. Directions say to spray on after last shower of the day, but sometimes I forget and go back and do it later. I am also using it with great success on my bathroom counters and faucets and I have even ventured to use it on my black granite in the kitchen around the faucet (works great for me but others should test in an inconspicuous area when using on anything dark). I spray it on the dry surface and return an hour or so later and it removes all those hard to remove water spots which used to require intense scrubbing and/or toxic chemicals.

I haven't had cracked feet, but this cream totally smoothed out calluses overnight. I wear socks over the foot cream, and my little socks were falling off by morning. This is a very powerful cream, so I only use it once in a while. I used Burts Bee's coconut foot creme when my feet were really heavily callused. It's got a heavier dose of "grease" if that is what you seek.

I also read about this scrub to cut down on the initial slipperiness. Manduka also suggests this scrub, however I chose not to use it. It really does become better the more you use it and I use mine pretty much everyday. But if Manduka is suggesting it, then I'd think it is safe for your mat. Maybe you could hang it over the shower to dry if it's too cold outside.

Any good quality moisturizing cream works for me.Sometimes I just use the same body lotion I use on my legs. Be careful, your feet may still be a little slippery the next time you step into the shower!

Way better!, like Deborah says before, you have to be careful using this with dry feet, because if you do it too rough you can hurt yourself. I love it!!!I use it after the shower and for me it works better. After that, I apply some lotion. And you are good to go again :)
