Then, while it’s still damp, take a file or callus remover and scrub.

“Save some lime for my margaritas later!” one viewer joked.
Many people agreed with Caserta and thought it was a good idea.
Dr. Catherine Chang in a TikTok said the citric acid in lemon is a good exfoliant and also suggested half pineapple juice and half water.
Bishr Al-Dabagh, MD, MBA also reinforced the technique’s effectiveness because “the skin on the foot is thick,” but they wouldn’t put it anywhere else on the body.

Dr. said it’s better to squeeze lemon into your drink than on your toes between pedicures.
On a TikTok VideoDr. Sasha Haddad said you should never use lime or lemon on your skin.
The reason is because “it is very acidic and can even irritate and cause some scars”, according to the family doctor.
She wasn’t the only one who thought this way about the food hack.
Dr. Dustin Portla suggested in another video Urea cream instead of lemon for better results.
