It is this ....]]reviews.boots.com/2111-en_gb/867907/soap-glory-soap-glory-foot-buffer-reviews/reviews.htm here]]

I actually hate their range and don't use it - but took a punt on this foot file and it's really, really good.

What's the problem with "April" shiney?

shinecrazydiamond · 09/03/2012 16:13

April is Chanel's newest shade - it's v nice indeed. I also recommend Peridot.

Ahhh! thought you were trying to offload it! Grin

Should have said I've been sucked in by the hype purchased said foot file this very afternoon!

reckoner · 09/03/2012 16:35

Right I bought one and it is fantastic. I didn't even soak my feet. Will do it again tomorrow morning after a shower. I had loads of dead skin on the floor when I was finished. Eww. Better result than when I had a proper ped done. Thank you so much!

schmalex · 09/03/2012 16:36

I'm definitely getting one of these. Need to get my dry old heels in shape in time for CS in 2 weeks. Don't want surgeon thinking I've completely let myself go... I'm already devastated you're not allowed to wear nail polish into theatre!

shinecrazydiamond · 09/03/2012 16:40

The only Chanel shade I have that I don't like much is orange fizz as its coral and I dislike coral

Ooohhh reckoner! It's really impressive isn't it?

wow... Three pages on foot files! I don't think I can afford Chanel polish though I am tempted .

reckoner · 09/03/2012 16:47

I am v impressed. Apparently it has another toe file in the handle. Didn't notice it.

ProcrastinateWildly · 09/03/2012 17:23

I've just got one and I concur: it's brilliant. Have had a quick go and am going to have a longer session with it tomorrow. Thanks!

Jamdoughnutfiend · 09/03/2012 17:54

Ok I neeeeed one, I can tap dance with my hard skin - my feet are beyond help. I am sulking because I have read this too late to get to the shops today, but first thing tomorrow I am there (excited!)

LulaPalooza · 09/03/2012 18:13

Can someone guarantee that the S&G one works on completely minging, thick hard skin? I haven't had a pedicure for... in fact, I can't remember when the last time I had one and my feet are absolutely MINGING.

I am now too ashamed to go for a pedicure. I need to take drastic action.

shinecrazydiamond · 09/03/2012 18:58

Lula - get one and by this time tomorrow your feet will be AMAZING

Def recommend, Ive had mine a year, I had really manky feet too, about an inch of hard horrible skin but I now soak my feet in a bowl of neat lemon juice for 20 minutes dry then use this and they are brilliantly soft. I find that if I dont soak in lemon, not much comes away but after soaking the hard skin is far easier and quicker to remove.

Ive not used any other s&g product other than this and their skin scrubs, which are also really good-if youve got those little bumps on your thighs or tops of arms, using those gets ridSmile

pocketandsweet · 10/03/2012 07:22

Really Shiney? That would be awesome. We will have to do a swap though so I don't feel bad. Do you wear Eau Dynamisme.... Or else I could take a special order for some OPI nail polish ( I will be in Canada this summer and it is alot cheaper there...)

shinecrazydiamond · 10/03/2012 08:59

Absolutely no need - although do talk to me about cheaper OPI nail polishes Smile PM me your details and I shall pop in the post next week - incidentally, it has only been used the once!

wellwisher · 10/03/2012 15:34

I've bought it too - am obsessed with foot files!

AWimbaWay · 10/03/2012 15:35

Sad, I've just dragged my 3 dcs to boots only to discover they don't have any!

shinecrazydiamond · 10/03/2012 15:43

Oh NO wimba.

could one of us get you one and shove it in the post?

OP posts:
Bienchen · 10/03/2012 16:01

AWimba They may not be stocked with the main S&G range but with other foot files. Might be worth checking again!

AWimbaWay · 10/03/2012 16:03

I've just ordered one on-line, along with some OPI Nail Envy, mn can prove an expensive hobby Grin, but thank you!

shinecrazydiamond · 10/03/2012 16:03

Yes, this is true. I never look at S and G stuff - mine was with other foot files and it SPOKE TO ME Grin

OP posts:
reckoner · 10/03/2012 16:03

The one in our local store was with the bath sponges. Not in the section with S&G stuff or the foot care...

shinecrazydiamond · 10/03/2012 16:04

Nail Envy is pretty good, yes. Enjoy!

AWimbaWay · 10/03/2012 16:06

Bienchen, I dragged my dcs all round the entire shop, Dd kept asking what I was looking for again, a foot grater? Confused Hmm. I guess 6 year olds don't have such issues.
