How To Use Pumice Stone: A Step-By-Step Guide

How To Use Pumice Stone: A Step-By-Step Guide

Your feet go through a lot, especially during the winter season. Not only are dry and cracked feet unappealing to look at, but they can also be painful if left untreated. Using a pumice stone is the most simplistic way to tackle hard and dry skin. It helps you get rid of dry and dead skin and enhances the overall appearance of your feet.

Pumice stone when used on feet, does wonders as it softens calluses and corns. Though it can be used daily, you will have to be careful so you don't end up removing too much skin, further starting to bleed.

While we know all about the pumice stone benefits, a significant question still remains.

How to Use Pumice Stone?

If you are looking for an excellent quality product, explore our online Vega website. You can easily shop for a premium quality pumice stone from our range of pedicure tools. With our step-step guide, you will be able to understand how to use pumice stone:

  • Preparation

To understand the procedure, first, you should prepare some other things you will need to use the pumice stone for body effectively.  A large bowl of warm soapy water to exfoliate your skin and a soft towel is necessary for the process. Pumice stone uses are not limited to foot care. While pumice stone is excellent for exfoliating hard soles, due to its porous surface, it is efficient for gentle exfoliation as well. Revive the dullness of your skin by using a pumice stone for face. But, gently! If you want to use a pumice stone for only the body, do so while showering.

After gathering the above-mentioned materials, make sure that the water and stone are clean. Soak your dry, callused skin in warm water for 5-10 minutes. Add soap or oil to soften the hardened skin. If you are using the pumice stone for face and body, complete this step with a warm shower.

Step 1: When you soak your feet, put the pumice stone in warm water as well. Never use a dry pumice stone to avoid injury on your skin. Also, a wet pumice stone helps it slide easily across the surface of the skin.

Step2: Remove the affected area from the water after the skin has softened completely and pat dry with a towel.

Step3: Apply the Vega pumice stone. Rub the abrasive side of the stone in a circular motion with light pressure. After that, massage your skin for two to three minutes. If your skin feels sensitive or sore, stop immediately as it can mean that you have put too much pressure.

Step4: For your feet, you should focus on the heels and the sides of your toe where dry skin tends to build up.

Step5: Continue rubbing the stone on your skin until the dead skin is removed, and soft skin is revealed.

Step6: After a couple of minutes of light rubbing, rinse your skin. If there are dead patches left, repeat the process. Continue using the stone until you are satisfied with the results. You should rinse the pumice stone for every session - for a clean surface and effectiveness.

Step 7: Repeat this process daily or a few times a week for soft and supple skin.

Step 8: After you are done, apply a moisturizer or oil to your skin for softness.

Step 9: Allow the stone to dry on its own by setting it in an area without moisture. It helps prevent bacterial growth on the stone.

Now that you know what a pumice stone is and how to use it, you can exfoliate your skin daily for fresh and glowing skin.
