Really justjuan?? I did mine on Sunday night and the peeling has started today. Not much yet but definitely the start of peeling.

The word 'slag' really hit a nerve didn't it?

But as I'm here now...

Just were your feet not so bad to start with? Think it takes a little longer if there's not tons of obviously hard skin.

No really bad so maybe they are TOO hard on the heels to work? I had a bit of peeling and dryness but nothing like any of the pics. COME ON FEET. Get gross!

LetItBeMe my last verucca lasted for around 10 years. If these footner things destroy them, it would be an amazing thing indeed. You need to try it and report back.

Footner do a pen thing too I think, I wonder if that would be good on stubborn bits and possibly round a verrucca?

And 2 days in here and nothing , despite soaking (briefly) twice today. At least I can wear sandals still at the moment!

I only did mine last night and I'm already staring madly at my feet, willing them to peel. My partner keeps calling the socks my "dissolvey bags"

OMG I want my feet to peel like that I am so impatient!!

Reassuringly, my feet are currently like she describes in the blog 2 days before the peeling starts - they are dry with little patches of peeling.

If my feet look like hers in a couple of days, yoga is definitely out of the question on Friday night Grin

That's like her entire foot came off...strangely fascinating!

So is this like a lazy way of just getting rid of the dead bits of skin without needing to dangle your feet into a tank of hungry fish?
