I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. It is so nice of you to help her like that. I absolutely love the Ped Egg (the one in the infomercials) and now you can get them in Bed Bath & lots of drug stores. If you don't want to delve into that I would just looks for a nice foot scrub maybe at Sephora. The sugar ones I really like.

If you want to make one, this could be nice for her since lavendar is relaxing:

Mint and Lavender Calming Foot Scrub

* ½ cup coarse sea salt
* 3 tablespoons olive oil
* 3-4 sprigs fresh lavender, minced
* 1 small handful fresh mint, minced

Good luck!

You can always go buy a pumice stone to scrub her feetsies down.

the ahava products are REALLY good... you can get them in most drug stores now
a client gave me this really cool trick for exfoliating your face.. and i swear its amazing

its Olay regenerist face scrub.. it has little exfoliating beads and sandy like thingies.. and then you mix about a handful of that with about a quater size or baking soda.. let it foam up.. i swear it works like you wouldnt imagine.. afterwards you have the same glow as after a professional facial

That's so nice of you!

I had a mini pedi kit that was cute....nothing major. I found it on here for $32. :bunny Of course you'll still need some tools: nail files, cuticle cutter/pusher etc.
