Treat Your Feet

Get toe-tally smooth in just two steps with this deflaker.

What You Need
2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 tablespoon mashed banana

1. Stir cornmeal and banana together until evenly blended. The mix should have the consistency of wet sand.

2. Massage the paste all over feet, working it into calluses for about 30 seconds, or until skin feels smooth.

Beauty Benefit
"Cornmeal exfoliates roughness and has antifungal properties, while the banana softens skin," says Kim D'Amato, owner of Priti, an organic spa in New York City.
