Effectively Removes the Dirt
My wife needed a new lava stone to scrub some of the dirt and dead skin off the heel of her foot.  We have another stone that is beginning to wear out, so this is meant to serve as a replacement.  Here are her thoughts:<br /><br />• Size/Texture: This one is larger than our other stone, but still fits easily in the palm of the hand.  Texture is as you would expect, with good scrape-ability not too sharp that it would hurt the foot.<br /><br />• Dirt Removal:  The before and after pictures above were taken after three uses.  In general, we are happy with the stone’s ability to remove dirt from the bottom of the foot.<br /><br />• Dead Skin Removal: By contrast, we were somewhat disappointed with the stone’s ability to fully remove the dead skin.  As you can see from the photo, some of the dead skin is gone but the bottom of her foot is still a little rough.<br /><br />In summary, this is a decent value given the low price point.  We’ll knock off a star due to the lack of dead skin removal, but I would say that we are generally satisfied with its effectiveness, and therefore, we give this a solid four stars and recommend this to anyone who needs an extra stone for the shower.
