I bought a cheap Footner

[Holenewme]

And it came with two of these. Any ideas?

The normal footner sock bits were in the box as normal but these were there too. I thought maybe they’re supposed to hold the footner socks on but my feet aren’t cloven so they can’t be for that. No mention of them in the rather brief instructions.

@notso By 'repulsed my family' I assume you mean 'had the absolute time of my life peeling off thin layers of skin for two hours in the bath'. Footner makes me so happy!

@QuilliamCakespeare no I never have baths, so repulsed them by soaking and peeling nightly...in the living room!

No fake footner in b&m or home bargains

Can someone link to a tried and tested cheapo version on amazon?

quilliam I once got out of the bath a few days after footnering and stepped out of a perfectly intact skin slipper. It was absolutely glorious and I was a tiny bit tempted to keep it.

@notso that's even better - peeling + Netflix = my best life

@Holenewme Shhhh, you're making me want to buy another one and it's only 3 weeks since I last did it!

Mine recently came with those rubber things. I kind of stretched it around my food with my toes in one of the holes. Helped me to grip the wood floor when the doorbell rang while I was wearing my plastic socks.

Or I stretched it around my foot. Not putting it near my snacks

Primark do a cheapy version if it helps. I was disappointed too - there was lots of peeling but the hard skin didn't shift, only the skin which was soft already. I did enjoy the peeling though.

holenewme are you Celtic?

@Sunnysidegold that's exactly what I'm scared off! I think I'll use my chiropody sponge (never used it before either, someone recommend it on here) and save FakeFootner for another time.

Those peelers do seem to leave your feet more prone to fungal infection afterwards. You need careful foot-care post peel.

Can anyone recommend a cheap one? Ideally from a shop but online if not.
Thanks.

I can’t confirm how well they work just yet but I’m having a bath tonight and expecting great things.

queenies no, I’m not Celtic. Do I have Celtic looking feet?

I'm holding off ordering until you report back with your results OP.
just in case your feet dissolve

What you need is a pet lizard

I thought you might have done but I was clearly mistaken 🙂
