Is it gross I want pics?

beccajoh · 08/06/2014 22:13

Never heard of this before -googles- but it looks revolting! My feet aren't good at the moment so might give this a go.

TheGirlOnTheLanding · 08/06/2014 22:20

I bought some a while ago to get my revolting hobbity feet ready for sandals. Annoyingly now I have a couple of hacks on my heels because they're so dry (despite Flexitol-ing them): I take it it's not a good plan to soak them in Footner if you've broken skin like that?

FoxyHarlow123 · 08/06/2014 22:25

You asked for pics!!!! mummyslittlestars.com/tag/hard-skin/

Elledouble · 08/06/2014 22:49

Just bought some (buy one get one half price on eBay!) and told DP about it. He thinks I'm disgusting. He doesn't know I'm looking at pictures of peeling feet on google images, heh heh.

Cuteypatootey · 09/06/2014 03:27

Those pics are amazing - I am weirdly jealous of all the peeling. How long does it take for all the skin to peel off?

KoalaDownUnder · 09/06/2014 06:16

I bought some of these off the internet last year and used them, and they barely worked!!

SO disappointed!! I followed the instructions to the letter, so what went wrong I wonder?

spookyskeleton · 09/06/2014 11:19

koala how disappointing Sad I really hope mine work as my feet are awful and need a miracle and I am really hoping that this is that miracle!

How many days does the peeling go on for?

JenniMoo · 09/06/2014 15:42

Mine's arrived at boots so hopefully I can do it tonight :)

FoxyHarlow123 · 09/06/2014 16:40

I had peeling for about 5 days in total.

cardamomginger · 09/06/2014 16:53

Daft question - can not-dead skin peel off too? If I do this, I'm not going to be left with bleeding feet where the skin has worn away,am I?

I know it's a daft question. But....

FoxyHarlow123 · 09/06/2014 17:57

Not a daft question. I can only for me and I wasn't left with even remotely sore feet. It didn't peel down enough for that. I really shouldn't worry. Obviously if you have cuts etc it might not be the best idea possibly.

justjuanmorebeer · 09/06/2014 18:27

Still no peelage here. Getting impatient

I have bought some but not used yet. Been a bit nervous but pleased to see others have had good results. Will use it when I have a spare hour or two.

Cahu5 · 09/06/2014 18:52

Do boots sell these instore as well as online? I REALLY want some!

spookyskeleton · 09/06/2014 19:00

I bought mine in store yesterday... they were in the footcare section where they have all the blister plasters etc.

JenniMoo · 09/06/2014 19:32

Mine are on! I'm thinking a little over an hour. I couldn't find the sticky bit to close then up but just stuck my socks over the top.

justjuanmorebeer · 09/06/2014 20:05

ooh ooh actually they are starting to peel v slightly on balls of feet. gonna get a bowl and soak for a bit eeek.

What the hell is in it to make feet do that?

Is it a new product? tested on animals?

FoxyHarlow123 · 09/06/2014 20:54

I'm going to slap one on my face!! What's the worst that can happen.....

spookyskeleton · 09/06/2014 21:12

Was just sat in yoga with my head quite close to my feet and noticed tiny little circles which look like the start of peeling Grin

I couldn't find the sticky bit either Hmm

Cahu5 · 09/06/2014 21:56

Thanks spooky, they will be mine tomorrow!

cardamomginger · 09/06/2014 22:25

Thanks for the reassurance! Never seen any reviews which say that the person was left with bleeding feet Grin!

It is SO tempting. If only for the pleasure of all that skin dropping off....

starfishmummy · 09/06/2014 22:45

I so want need to do this but don't particularly want to have to wear socks or thick tights for work this time of year!!

I only work two days a week....maybe if I do it as soon as i get home on my second day it will be all done and dusted for the next week?? No, probably not!!

Coumarin · 10/06/2014 01:52

It's mainly the bottom of your feet Starfish I don't think oz had any peeling on the tops. Maybe a little on the sides. If you wear full shoes then I doubt it'll be visible.

I've posted way too much on a thread about peeling feet. Blush
