I have some of the cheaply style footner socks on while I work at home. Don’t worry I bought them a year ago so no unnecessary deliveries I just couldn’t use them as I’d lost a toenail. I realised my feet looked more bloke hoods and now bc would be a good time to get them into shape. But yuck i have to sit wearing plastics bags full of goo for 2 hours...,blergh. Anyone else doing beauty treatments while working that they can’t use on an office. I’m also on a break right now!

That's a bit rude! What a horrible thing for someone to say to you Gammon.

GammonWithAHardR · 08/04/2020 18:16

It was horrid yeah. I don't even know what kind of treatment you would go for to fix that!?

Mine look terrible as I hid them away all last year. I lost my toenail due to ill fitting walking boots and was hiding them. @LucyLatimer I’ve been putting it off for months but as I was sitting at my desk for two hours I thought I might as well do it. I want to dog out my summer shoes so after the shedding I have nice feet even though no one will see my feet.

It’s time to do it now and go through the skin shedding isn’t it

I did a foot thing on saturday night, always wanted to, I couldnt keep it on for 90mins it was too weird and annoying. However as I write this I'm peeling so much skin off! I'm getting another and keeping it on for the full time next time!

Make sure you soak your feet in warm water everyday to help the process, otherwise with the cheapies it will be a good 7 days before any peeling starts then they'll be peeling in teeny bits for 10-14 days.

@TorysSuckRevokeArticle50 I will do and hope I get proper good peel.

I had to have my toe nail removed due to a ingrown toe nail. They said it would never grow back. But it has. Taken a few years but glad it's back Grin hope I've given some hope lol

I’m going to henna my hair. I’ve wanted to do it for ages but never have the time and didn’t want to go to work in case I screwed it up somehow.
Now I’m working from home and obviously we aren’t going anywhere soon, I can work with a head full of henna and a shower cap on and no one will see if it goes tits up!
