Flexitol just ain't cutting it, help

[CarrieErbag]

I have been using Flexitol for my really dry feet.
I had bad athletes foot now largely under control, but the sides of my feet are still dry and peeling and nothing is working. Any suggestions please?

Anyone?

I find Flexitol doesn’t work for me unless I pumice my feet religiously.

I just use a regular bog standard pumice stone after a bath or shower then slather the flexitol on.

Lurking as am having the same issue.

I did start pumice stoneing last night so will see if adding that in helps at all.

which one are you using? there is a 25% urea version and a 10% version?

I'm doing all that. Newton chiropody sponge, flexitol.....
Getting rid of hard skin but just have dry peeling feet that aren't improving.

The 10% one i think bruffin.

Also tried cuplex with 25% urea, that did naff all too.

Try the 25% then i started using it again a few days ago and definitely and improvement. I have dyshidrotic eczema on my feet and it helps helps with the dryness of that as well.

So long as your feet aren't bleeding, you need to footer them!

I shall give that a whirl, just been googling and it looks very much like dermatitis from the pictures I've seen.

I’m doing the 25% flexitol and can’t even get rid of the dry skin. It’s just a big, thick pad of it on both big toes.

I thought coroner was for hard skin mainly? I'll give that a whirl then also.
Thanks all.

Coroner? Bloody autocorrect, footner

Go to a chiropodist. They will remove it with a scalpel.

Bruffin your eczema sounds/looks painful.

It's soo, so itchy

Would I really need a chiropodist....would a pedicure person do it?

O’Keefes dry foot cream is excellent , I’d tried loads of different ones before and it’s by far the best . I’d also go to the GP and see if they can give something stronger for the athletes foot than you can buy OTC .

Margaret Dabbs foot hygiene cream. It's around £20 a pot, and for the first time in my life, I have got rid of my atheletes foot and got baby soft feet. I use it twice a day and it's even helped get rid of the hardened skin I have above my ankle bones. Flexitol has never worked for me.

VIX - my feet have sometimes got AF, peel regularly. Smother my feet in this and its an overnight miracle.

I read this online. Did it lastnight and feet are lovely this morning.

I literally just ordered some flexitol this morning after reading people raving about it on here. Just my luck

have you tried washing with soap rather than shower gel
shower gel dries feet out badly. My feet are much nicer this year switching to soap.

Also I find body shop hemp foot cream to be good stuff

The Margeret Dabbs Foot file is the dogs bollocks for hard skin. Not the one they sell in M & S, the one that costs about 25 quid which you can get from various places online. The M & S one is about 15 I think but it is the lite version.

I use the 25% flexitol, the 10% one doesn't cut it. I apply it once a day in the morning after swimming so my skin is full of water which I think helps as well.

Coroner?!! You've got a big dry skin problem then.

I'm having a similar problem. Am using my Ped-egg and Flexitol religiously atm. Had recent surgery and my skin and hair has gone haywire since
