An essential to all bathrooms is a pumice stone!  But how many have you seen in peoples bathrooms and they look nasty the pores get blocked up and looks like it could do with throwing away!.

I use a Cuccio Earth Lava Pumice Stone which i love and i purchased mine on Amazon as i find they have the best price.
