Silly old footner face

98 replies

AvaCrowder · 12/05/2015 22:36

My face has been feeling really bunged up. I have lots of under the surface spots that I can't pick.

I used footner on my feet a couple of weeks ago, and wished that I could do the same on my face...

So tonight I wiped my face with the insides of the spare footners, I didn't wrap it, so I could feel the alcohol in it evaporate.

Then I left the residue on for an hour, and washed it very carefully.

I am expecting to peel in the next week or two and have a perfect complexion.

Any sheddding yet Ava?

I'd love to Footner my hands. They are rough and dry and look twice their age. Is that as daft as Footnering your face, do you think?

Are you daft?

PacificDogwood · 16/05/2015 08:32

TheDiet, not quite as daft, but close Grin

The Diet you can buy a liquid called pedikur it is a rough skin remover that can be used on hands. There are lots of similar ones out there.

Ava are the lumps cystic acne? I used to suffer increasingly and someone on mumsnet recommended omega 3 oils. I've been taking them for 2 months and its stopped the large painful monthly lumps under the skin. I take the boots omega 3,6,9 capsules.

AvaCrowder · 16/05/2015 21:01

Thank you harderthanitlooks I will try that, or anything obviously.

We are getting ready to go out, my face hasn't started shedding or anything.

I think that maybe I should have wrapped up my face to get a result, but reading your replies I'm glad that I didn't!

Somebody did footner their hands but I can't remember if they posted the end result

Outwith · 16/05/2015 21:39

Ignore, they couldn't type any more Grin.

MerryKat · 16/05/2015 21:45

I hope your face is ok Ava. I second the fish oils and glycolic recommendations! Footner on face sounds a bad idea!

Lucy61 · 16/05/2015 22:17

Good God! ShockShockShock

When I was 5 or 6 I put nail varnish on my cheeks to make them rosy. A bit similar...

scabbycat · 16/05/2015 22:39

Glad your face is okay after all OP! After what it did to my minging rock-hard hooves I think you're entirely bonkers to put it on your face, but fingers crossed for a lucky escape...

TheDietStartsTomorrow · 17/05/2015 23:14

Will try pediky but I really want to Footner my hands now. Pacific, I feel like that's a challenge..Wink

Hope you're not planning to go out over the bank holiday weekend OP!

Anotheronesoon · 18/05/2015 19:30

I'm very tempted to buy footner but it's £20-a mani pedi around where I live is £30. Is there any point? Should I just go and get them peeled in the salon instead or is footner better?

rootypig · 18/05/2015 22:03

Another it's 5 quid off in Boots at the moment so £15 - and way better than a pedi, frankly.

IgnoreMeEveryOtherReindeerDoes · 18/05/2015 22:08

I paid £20 for boots one also couple of quid for cheaper version off Amazon last year which worked just the same.

TheDietStartsTomorrow · 18/05/2015 23:35

Ignore, what's the amazon one called?

Wagglebee · 19/05/2015 02:43

Omg.

Blatantly place marking. Maybe OP can't come back and update as her face has fallen off. Shock

really shouldn't joke

sunroof · 19/05/2015 03:43

Tealady1983 · 19/05/2015 04:56
