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.

tiokiko, I only ordered mine yesterday but it is now saying out of stock, they've obviously had a run on them, wonder why Hmm.

HappyWilly · 11/03/2012 21:29

I got one yesterday and it is really good. Other foot files seem to just polish the top layer of skin without removing much. This one manages to scrape through it, thanks for the recommendation.

Oh, and I got another one today for my husband

Jamdoughnutfiend · 11/03/2012 21:31

Tiokiko I only ordered it last night. Think you have started something shiney!

shinecrazydiamond · 11/03/2012 21:36

Hey, my first thought on using it was you lot! It's good to share, no? Smile

I do the same over on the fiction topic when i read something that I know lots of other people will like.

I may see if S and G will pay me a percentage of sales...

Shineon I got a book you reccomended!

fluffylegs · 11/03/2012 22:42

Into the corner. Very scary very good. So thank you. Off to Boots to buy the foot file! Whoops pressed send to soon.
There is something quite authoritative about you that makes me trust your opinion even though you cd actually be my hairy Spanish weirdo neighbour who sits in his pants and vest all day. Grin

shinecrazydiamond · 11/03/2012 23:17

Grin you nutter. Yes, that's me - authoritarian. Not! I am very sweet and lovely really but it's good to share the love isn't it?

I could try and convert you to all sorts but you'd all get fucked off with me : )

If you haven't considered a career in marketing though shiney, you should. Hell, I'd hire you and I don't even have anything to sell, see, you've even inadvertently sold yourself.

Eggrules · 13/03/2012 11:54

Tried it and I am impressed. I really like the ergonomic aspect as this made it really easy to use. My feet feel miles better but they don't look amazing; I need to try it again with neat lemon juice.

Like others, I found it with the beauty/foot care section and not by S&G or medical/foot care section.

Thanks shinecrazydiamond

shinecrazydiamond · 13/03/2012 12:31

Wimba - ah, I can only 'sell' things that I feel passionately about, so a marketing career probably doesn't beckon. Grin

How long do you have to wait for delivery?

anniewoo · 13/03/2012 12:34

M&S file just as good imo

AWimbaWay · 13/03/2012 12:38

I've just had an 'order dispatched' email, so hopefully it'll arrive tomorrow.

shinecrazydiamond · 13/03/2012 12:51

The excitement of waiting in for a foot file Hmm Grin

Without wishing to appear a bit thick - which side do you use first? Confused

shinecrazydiamond · 13/03/2012 14:53

Use the side with the...nodules? bumpy bits? first... this is what removes all the dead skin. The other side is more 'smoothing' if you see what I mean?

Is back in stock now on Boots.com. Have just ordered mine - will report back in due course!

ilovemyteddy · 13/03/2012 17:21

I bought one of these yesterday with my Boots points and it is AMAZING! I attacked my feet with it last night, slathered on some Elemis Foot Cream which I got as a free sample, put on a sexy pair of bedsocks Grin and wow!
All of my hard skin has now vanished.

Thank you so much Shiney for the recommendation.

Misssss · 13/03/2012 17:40

Has anyone seen one of these in a Manchester boots, been to three of them and no sign. I get a bit crazy when a new product is out that may just change my life (save my tights)

MrsCampbellBlack · 13/03/2012 17:41

Yeay - have ordered!

Am already wearing April on toes so hopefully will have soft feet to match pretty nails.

shinecrazydiamond · 13/03/2012 17:51

Ooh yes, April is very nice indeed, although I am currently sporting Gondola. I have ruined the effect by putting the Chanel matt top coat on it though... I have never been convinced by this.

MrsCampbellBlack · 13/03/2012 17:52

Oh no - I like glossy but am a tat towie Wink

You should use seche vite - I've heard its very good Wink

MrsCampbellBlack · 13/03/2012 17:53

A tat towie - never a truer word . . .

shinecrazydiamond · 13/03/2012 17:58

seche vite... yes i was reading about this earlier. I am too in love with Chanel sometimes to consider other nail stuff but maybe i should?

At this rate i'll be shopping at H and M and wearing Marni before you know it Wink

Ultrasonic · 13/03/2012 22:02

Ok Shiney clearly, I did need this foot file in my life. What does it say about me that I started with it settling down to watch Masterchef.
Masterchef is now finished and I'm still on foot #1
I had no idea how many layers and layers were there. I'm going down, deep deep down!
Oh my lord, it's good
It's soooo good
I can't stop....can't stop....can't stop............

ruby22 · 13/03/2012 22:11

Mrs CampbellBlack I have just spent 5-10 minutes debating whether tat towie is some sort of colloquialism, then it clicked. I've had to google seche vite as no idea what that was and Ultrasonic you have just made me laugh so much I woke up the sleeping baby stuffed into my armpit to allow better access to the laptop.
I sometimes feel like the s&b board is a much needed foray into the world of those in the know and I am following a rather steep learning curve. Off to seek out a foot file in the morning. Daft question but do you squeeze lemons to get the neat lemon juice, if so how many at a time, if not do you use the stuff in a bottle last seen during my childhood on pancake day?
