Callus remover gel

A consistently top-selling item at HuffPost, this easy-use gel will get your feet together. All you have to do is soak your feet in hot water, towel them dry, apply a thick layer of the gel for five to 10 minutes, rinse and give your feet a lil rub with a scrubber to shed calluses and cracks in moments.

Promising review: "I have really bad calluses and I’ve always been embarrassed of my feet. I’ve done everything possible to get rid of them. This had good reviews and I thought what would it hurt to try one more thing. I am so glad I did. I am now earring flip flops and sandals without embarrassment. I can not recommend this product enough. I soak my feet for quite awhile and then apply this product. I leave it on about ten to fifteen minutes. After rinsing the product off I use a foot file. I can not believe how much I remove. Seriously give it a try, you might just be as surprised as I was." — Michelle Weis

Baby Foot exfoliation foot peel

We've written before about this cult-fave foot peel made with 16 natural extracts. It's like an intense sheet mask for your feet, that comes with two booties. Put each on, leave them for an hour, then take it off and give your feet a rinse. After five-ish days, dead skin begins to fall off, (like really a lot of skin, check out the photos) revealing baby-fresh skin underneath.

Promising review: "WOW. Just WOW! I rarely take the time to write product reviews, but, honey, this stuff is the real deal. My feet were gross. Thick skin, crusty looking. And, to make matters worse, the salons here do not allow razors to be used when getting a pedicure. I have tried using blades myself to no avail. Then a friend told me about this stuff, so I decided to try it. I showered, and then put on the 'boots' and taped them closed and covered my feet with two layers of socks so the gel wouldn't seep out. I waited for an hour, then took them off. They didn't look any different. So, I patiently waited to see some action. Today is the third day and I cannot believe my eyes! The skin is literally coming off in big sheets. If you are the kind of person who loves peeling skin and wants to see a drastic difference, you should buy this stuff. I love it so much I want to buy it for people. Even people I don't like. LOL. I know a lot of people with gross feet, who I think this would be perfect for. Just take a look at my photos. Yes. TMI, I know. But this is really amazing stuff. Don't walk. RUN and buy this stuff." — Annie

Dr. Scholl's foot masks

Dr. Scholl's foot masks are also really popular with HuffPost readers, which makes us happy to suggest this option for dry and cracked skin. This set comes with a pack of three, meaning each treatment is less than $3 each. Simply put the masks on your feet, let them hang for about 30 minutes, remove them and enjoy the hydrated softness left on your tootsies.

Promising review: "I’m a nurse, my feet are dry after working and building up calluses. I used this product ONCE and I saw a noticeable difference in my feet. I would have to get regular pedicures to obtain the look these give me, which I definitely don’t have the time for as a nurse and mom to a 2 year old. They are a little hard to open, but it’s not a huge issue, plop them on your feet and prop ‘em up for 1/2 an hour and do as the directions say. 10/10 will buy again." — apina

A Dr. Scholl's glass foot file

Or, for something similar but less sharp to the touch, this glass foot file helps you exfoliate and smooth your feet without using too much wrist and arm power. It's a little more gentle than the classic metal grater while still offering effective results and is waterproof and rustproof making it easier to clean.

Promising review: "I have a pinch callus that has been on my toe for decades and requires a little care at the salon every month, which can add up. I bought this and have even better results than when they use their tools. Instant results. Highly recommend. In fact, both of my feet have never been softer all the way around." — Kindle customer

Give yourself a taste of luxury at home with this bubbling foot bath. Many reviews share that having their feet soaking helps with the callus removal process and keep their feet feeling smooth and soft long term.

Dr. Scholl's Duragel callus removers

If your calluses are painful, we suggest these cushion pads that work in as quick as two treatments. They offer cushioning while softening hard calluses with maximum strength salicylic acid. They're thin, flexible and meant last all day long.

Promising review: "Buy this miracle thing! I had no idea how this was supposed to work. All i had was pain under my foot, someone suggested I use a callus removed... I thought it would’ve just softened the callus butttt it did even better. I only wore this on the spot for about 2 days then it got sufficiently wet in the shower and started coming off. I thought that was it... looked at my feet and it left a circle from where the callus remover once was... didn’t think much of it cuz hey it’s under my feet who cares... until a week later that entire circle fell right off!!! The entire thing was gone, left my foot smooth and renewed and guess what no more pain. I need one big enough to cover my whole foot lol. It’s great I do recommend." — koko

A callus remover kit

Promising review: "Best tool for removing ugly calluses. Was always told to use pumice rocks to smooth out rough calluses. Gave this a try and my heels look so refreshed and clean. This simple tool is all you need to get your feet back looking clean and healthy." — Boboli818

It comes with four AA batteries, an extra roller head that spins 360 degrees and an integrated safety top that keeps you from putting on too much pressure.

Promising review: "This is the only thing that works for me to keep calluses under control. I do a lot sports that destroy my feet and 5-6 times a year I give them a good sand down with this contraption then maintain them with a regular pumice stone. Really helps to remove calluses in the contact areas and dead skin all over the foot. I wouldn't be barefoot in public without a good once over from this thing." — Anon Mazon

Promising review: "Solo mama to a daughter whose 'I WANT or NEED' list is never-ending. And, her needs and most of her wants come before mine. So to be real clear here...I rarely splurge on myself. At Christmas, a relative received a more expensive brand of a similar product. I had been secretly wanting what they had gotten for a long while now, for monthly pedicures aren't in MY budget. But, guess what I did get??? An Amazon gift card! I scoured this site until I found this callus remover. I ordered and I have been in PEDI HEAVEN since! My calluses especially on my big toes hurt so bad at times, I could hardly bare another day of dress shoes. My shoes were off and hidden under my desk more than they were off. After the first use, I could definitely tell a difference. Subsequent uses totally got rid of them. Someone had asked about being able to file down a thicker nail. I have one where the nail bed was damaged and it grew small and thick. This little thing filed it down effortlessly!! Holds charge wonderfully and cordless. Only drawback is that it is a bit loud, but don't let that discourage you!" — melody_thrives_on
