Though its not fun to think about, we all get dirty feet from time to time, especially when its hot out and open-toed shoes are back in our wardrobe. You should be washing (and drying) your feet daily   between the toes, too! to get rid of sweat and bacteria that can cause infection and odor. But for people who have trouble bending over in the shower, washing your feet can quickly become an arduous task. Enter: a foot scrubber mat like this one by Beskar , which can do the job effectively and conveniently without forcing you to bend down.

Available in six colors, this shower mat is lined with suction cups on the bottom, and reviewers say that the non-slip grip works as advertised. You can adhere it to the bottom or side of your shower or tub, and then squirt some body wash or scrub onto it when youre ready to clean. The dual-bristle design, which has longer bristles for reaching the places between your toes and shorter ones for the soles of your feet, will clean and massage your feet as you move them over the mat. (Many reviewers say the bristles exfoliation was ticklish at first, but they quickly got used to it.)

The mat is 12 by 12 inches, and 1.5 inches tall. When you convert the length to shoe sizes , that means it can fit up to womens size 12 or mens size 14 feet. It also has a loop on the top, so you can hang it on a hook to dry when youre done using it.

In case you need more convincing, the mat has an impressive 4.3-star average across over 14,000 reviews. Reviewers with hip or knee problems , arthritis  and dry, cracked heels  have all praised the scrubber mat for how clean it leaves their feet without the need to bend over. Other reviewers also love it simply because it provides a luxurious  and spa-like experience that leaves their feet feeling soft . Its possible use isnt necessarily limited to the shower, either some happy reviewers have gotten creative by using it outdoors to clean their shoes after gardening  or as a mat to stand on for relief from long periods of standing at the kitchen sink.

Below, check out some more glowing reviews of this foot scrubber mat, or just go ahead and buy one for yourself to get the clean, sandal-ready feet you deserve.

Ok, so, I have the NASTIEST heels on earth on these feet. They stay dry and crispy to the point that they grab my sheets at night no matter what I do. Ive tried those peeling foot masks, filing them daily, heavy creams, kerasal cream, etc etc. To NO AVAIL. Single handedly in about 5 days my feet are smooth like a baby and like brand new! Im astounded. While Im scrubbing down my body and hair in the shower, I simply rub my feet in the mat the whole time Im showering and rinsing. Thats it! Ive not done one other thing. Havent even continued using cream on them. They are so smooth its absolutely unbelievable. Wish Id found this decades ago. Its a game changer if you have terrible feet! Joel

I bought this after I had a cast removed on my foot. I thought that it could help me clean off my foot. I put some soap on the mat and rubbed my feet on all the nubs on the mat. It worked great. My casted foot felt great and looked great. It was so smooth you would never think it was trapped in a cast for eight weeks. My husband loves it too. Ann

Bought this after watching a TikTok video of things you need to buy from Amazon and here we are! hands down, it was worth the money. I toss a little body wash across it and start with one foot just rubbing my foot back and forth. It creates a lather with the body wash but I know my foot gets cleaner with that thing than just a wash cloth. It tickles, just like a pedicure but you get used to it. It also has suction cups so it doesnt move. I can easily pick it up and toss it in another area of my shower and it sticks. If youve got an extra $20 lying around, give this a try! Megan

I bought this specifically for use after my shifts as a nurse. I wear compression socks that make my feet sweat and who knows what fluids sometimes spill on my shoes. Honestly my feet dont smell great when I come home. Theyre also sore.

This product makes them feel so clean. I squirt some foaming soap on it and rub my feet into it while I do the rest of my shower. It massages them and gets between my toes.

When I first step into it, my feet are a little ticklish, so if you are just stand on it and make little movements with your feet until they adjust. Sara A. Vogt

I prefer going barefoot, and usually have a hard time getting the bottom of my feet clean. They also build up calluses. And as I get older, I find it harder and harder to even reach the bottom of my feet in the shower, let alone scrub them. This mat solves all these problems. I get my feet clean and rub off calluses without having to bend over. I just squirt a little liquid soap on the mat and rub my feet on them. At first it was too nubby to stand on, but I just put one foot on the floor and rub the other back and forth. Now I am used to it, it feels good, like a massage. It is easy to rinse out after each use, and it adheres well so I never feel like its going to slip. At first I thought the little scrubbers would break off after awhile, but Ive been using it for nearly a year with no damage to the little scrubbies. Mom1Sharon

Callus remover gel
A consistently top-selling item at HuffPost, this easy-use gel will get your feet together. All you have to do is soak your feet in hot water, towel them dry, apply a thick layer of the gel for five to 10 minutes, rinse and give your feet a lil rub with a scrubber to shed calluses and cracks in moments.

Promising review: "I have really bad calluses and Ive always been embarrassed of my feet. Ive done everything possible to get rid of them. This had good reviews and I thought what would it hurt to try one more thing. I am so glad I did. I am now earring flip flops and sandals without embarrassment. I can not recommend this product enough. I soak my feet for quite awhile and then apply this product. I leave it on about ten to fifteen minutes. After rinsing the product off I use a foot file. I can not believe how much I remove. Seriously give it a try, you might just be as surprised as I was." Michelle Weis
Baby Foot exfoliation foot peel
We've written before about this cult-fave foot peel made with 16 natural extracts. It's like an intense sheet mask for your feet, that comes with two booties. Put each on, leave them for an hour, then take it off and give your feet a rinse. After five-ish days, dead skin begins to fall off, (like really a lot of skin, check out the photos ) revealing baby-fresh skin underneath.

Promising review: "WOW. Just WOW! I rarely take the time to write product reviews, but, honey, this stuff is the real deal. My feet were gross. Thick skin, crusty looking. And, to make matters worse, the salons here do not allow razors to be used when getting a pedicure. I have tried using blades myself to no avail. Then a friend told me about this stuff, so I decided to try it. I showered, and then put on the 'boots' and taped them closed and covered my feet with two layers of socks so the gel wouldn't seep out. I waited for an hour, then took them off. They didn't look any different. So, I patiently waited to see some action. Today is the third day and I cannot believe my eyes! The skin is literally coming off in big sheets. If you are the kind of person who loves peeling skin and wants to see a drastic difference, you should buy this stuff. I love it so much I want to buy it for people. Even people I don't like. LOL. I know a lot of people with gross feet, who I think this would be perfect for. Just take a look at my photos. Yes. TMI, I know. But this is really amazing stuff. Don't walk. RUN and buy this stuff." Annie
Dr. Scholl's foot masks
Dr. Scholl's foot masks are also really popular with HuffPost readers, which makes us happy to suggest this option for dry and cracked skin. This set comes with a pack of three, meaning each treatment is less than $3 each. Simply put the masks on your feet, let them hang for about 30 minutes, remove them and enjoy the hydrated softness left on your tootsies.

Promising review: "Im a nurse, my feet are dry after working and building up calluses. I used this product ONCE and I saw a noticeable difference in my feet. I would have to get regular pedicures to obtain the look these give me, which I definitely dont have the time for as a nurse and mom to a 2 year old. They are a little hard to open, but its not a huge issue, plop them on your feet and prop em up for 1/2 an hour and do as the directions say. 10/10 will buy again." apina

I bought this and have even better results than when they use their tools. Instant results. Highly recommend. In fact, both of my feet have never been softer all the way around." Kindle customer

Promising review: "Buy this miracle thing! I had no idea how this was supposed to work. All i had was pain under my foot, someone suggested I use a callus removed... I thought it wouldve just softened the callus butttt it did even better. I only wore this on the spot for about 2 days then it got sufficiently wet in the shower and started coming off. I thought that was it... looked at my feet and it left a circle from where the callus remover once was... didnt think much of it cuz hey its under my feet who cares... until a week later that entire circle fell right off!!! The entire thing was gone, left my foot smooth and renewed and guess what no more pain. I need one big enough to cover my whole foot lol. Its great I do recommend." koko

Promising review: "Solo mama to a daughter whose 'I WANT or NEED' list is never-ending. And, her needs and most of her wants come before mine. So to be real clear here...I rarely splurge on myself. At Christmas, a relative received a more expensive brand of a similar product. I had been secretly wanting what they had gotten for a long while now, for monthly pedicures aren't in MY budget. But, guess what I did get??? An Amazon gift card! I scoured this site until I found this callus remover. I ordered and I have been in PEDI HEAVEN since! My calluses especially on my big toes hurt so bad at times, I could hardly bare another day of dress shoes. My shoes were off and hidden under my desk more than they were off. After the first use, I could definitely tell a difference. Subsequent uses totally got rid of them. Someone had asked about being able to file down a thicker nail. I have one where the nail bed was damaged and it grew small and thick. This little thing filed it down effortlessly!! Holds charge wonderfully and cordless. Only drawback is that it is a bit loud, but don't let that discourage you!" melody_thrives_on
