Pumice Stone Wet or Dry
Here’s where I get real with you. There is no “right” way—only the way that fits your feet and your patience level. Start with wet if your skin is average or you’re new to this. It’s forgiving and loving. Use dry only if you have thick, neglected calluses and you’re ready to commit to a few minutes of noisy work.

My personal hack? A hybrid. I soak for five minutes, then pat my foot half-dry. The stone is damp, but not dripping. That’s the sweet spot. You get the grip of dry method with the glide of wet. It’s the Goldilocks of pumice techniques. Try it once, and you might never go back.
One Last Tip (From Someone Who’s Made Mistakes)
Whatever you choose, always sanitize your pumice stone after. It’s a porous rock, folks. It’s a breeding ground for bacteria. White vinegar or boiling water works. And replace it every few months—unless you enjoy the thought of old skin cells living on your bathroom shelf. (Gross, right?)
So, dry or wet? The answer is both, depending on the day. Or, as I now tell myself: use wet for weekly touch-ups, dry for monthly deep cleans. My grandma would probably frown at my indecision. But hey, she also used a pumice stone on her elbows, so who’s judging? Now go forth and exfoliate—responsibly.
