***WHAT IS A PED EGG?*** I’m sure many of you may have seen this advertised on the TV on in a store such as Robert Dyas as these are advertised as a JML product. The Ped Egg is a fantastic foot file that uses 135 micro-precision files to gently remove calluses and hard skin to reveal baby, soft feet. The Ped Egg also comes with 2 exfoliating buffing pads, for a baby soft finish. The Ped Ed even collects the shavings in the storage department for no mess.
***PRICE/AVALIABILITY*** You can buy this online from places such as Amazon, eBay and JML direct. Prices on Amazon start at £4.99 for just the Ped Egg which
also includes the 2 buffing pads. If you buy this from www.jmldirect.com this will cost you £9.99 and you can also buy it in pink rather than the standard white colour as well. On the JML website they also do a special Ped Egg for men as well.
You can of course get replacement files for the Ped Egg which I have only seen on the JML website. This will cost you £9.99 for 2 of the replacement files/blades and you also get 2 buffing boards with these as well. You can also buy a Ped Egg with a handle if you have trouble reaching your heels which is a bit more expensive at £14.99
I actually got my Ped Egg from a market when I was on holiday, and I paid £5.00 for 2 of these products, one of which my mum used. I purchased a black one, but they also had pink and white ones available to buy as well. It came in all the original packaging and with the 2 buffing pads as well. This isn’t a cheap version of a Ped Egg, as it’s exactly the same as the one on the JML website and has all the same packaging and correct labels on the product as well.
***USING THE PED EGG*** The Ped Egg is like an egg shape and is sits in the hand very easily so is comfortable to hold. If you take the bottom off of the Ped Egg this will reveal the actual blade/file which I think looks a bit like a cheese-grater! The blade/file itself looks as though it’s quite sharp and could cause some damage but when running my finger along it, it’s not as sharp as it first looks. On the TV advert for the Ped Egg it also shows someone rubbing this against an inflated balloon and it doesn’t burst, which shows you how gentle this file actually is.
When using this on my heel it does feel gentle and you can definitely feel the file doing a good job of making heels smoother and softer. I did notice that some of the skin you are filing does end up on the surface when you are filing your foot so the Ped Egg doesn’t collect all the skin, but the majority of it. After using the file on my heel for a while you can definitely feel a huge difference. The skin felt softer than it did before and didn’t look and feel as rough.
After I had finished using the blade/file I then decided to use one of the buffing pads which come with the Ped Egg. These are sticky on the back and you simply stick them onto the bottom of the cover of the Ped Egg.
After using the buffing pad on my heel I couldn’t believe how much softer my heel was. It was really smooth and soft and made a huge different to how it looked and felt before. This not only made me feet look good but because my feet felt and looked good this made me more confident when wearing open shoes and flip flops.
To empty the Ped Egg just simply pull the top of the Ped Egg off. (I advise you to do this over a bin, just in case as the top can be a bit stiff to remove sometimes!). When opening the Ped Egg I was surprised at how little there was in the actual compartment. Obviously the compartment wasn’t very full, and it just looked like dust. I just simply emptied it onto the bit and gave it a tap to remove any excess, and gave it a wipe with a damp cloth. Of course you don’t have to empty it every time you use it but I’m really fussy about hygiene so empty it after I have finished using it.
Obviously don't use the Ped Egg on your nails as this could really damage them!
***OVERALL OPINION*** Since using the Ped Egg my feet have looked and felt in better condition than they have ever felt before. I would definitely recommend this product and you can not only use this on the heels of the feet but you can use it on toes as well if you need to. You won’t be disappointed with the results of this product and it’s a great beauty product to have. You can pick these up for cheaper than £9.99 which is what they are on the JML website. As this is a product for feet I would recommend that you don’t share this item with anyone else (unlike my mum and dad who share this, yuck!).

Sounds like you got a good deal on it. Everywhere I go I see positive reviews. This seems like the first true as soon on TV product that delivers real results.
