As several people on MN have raved about Flexitol, I will be applying it twice daily to my hideous feet and posting a photo on this profile every 2 days so we may judge the results.

!!WARNING!! Profile Contains Pictures Of Hideous Feet.

oh, how very interesting...posting so I can come back to ogle your feet? How much is this stuff?

LadyVictoriaOfCake · 16/09/2007 14:29

lol, it works!!

i have used it, but not in the last few months.

TheDuchessOfFlexiFeet · 16/09/2007 14:31

Flexitol costs about £4.99 for the larger tube in Boots. I'll also let you know how long it lasts.

Guffaw
Feet are indeed in need of attention.
I love it.
Judicious use thereof and regular attacks with huge nailfile thingy keeps 'em under control. (Were you Duch. of Norks/ bride? Who originally? I cna't keep up.)

roisin · 16/09/2007 14:48

ROFL
It definitely works.

Dh had some horrid deep cracks in his feet recently, and nicked my Flexitol: and they healed up super quick.

He bought me something else as a replacement (Tescos didn't have Flexitol) and it's rubbish.

Oh the shame of going to a chiropractor chiropodist before the age of 65 would have me fleeing town in the middle of the night.

Humiliating afflictions better tended to in privacy of one's home (in manner af AmateurArseDoctor)

MrsSpoon · 16/09/2007 14:51

LOL, I've got Flexitol too and it is great when I use it but unfortunately the feet very quickly go back to the texture of roughly sawn wood whenever I stop again.

MrsSpoon · 16/09/2007 14:53

icod, does a Chiropodist (ROFL @ Moondog's chiropractor) treat all sorts of minging feet problems or just the hard skin?

MaryAnnSingleton · 16/09/2007 14:53

is it the one in a yellow and green tube ? if so, it works !

TheDuchessOfFlexiFeet · 16/09/2007 15:12

I do have cracks where my toes bend but can't photograph that due to not being Thai hostess.

Moondog - yes I was/am.

I'd be happy if my feet were like yours, Duchess.

Mine are awful ATM.

I think I'm beyond flexitol....

Botbot · 16/09/2007 17:43

I had to look twice at your third picture. It looks as if your foot is carefully posed on a ginormous pumice stone.

Big Flexitol user here - amazing stuff.

moonshine · 16/09/2007 17:46

Flexitol good but I got the most fantastic Scholl footfile and filed off a whole sandpit's worth of skin. Most satisfying.

cornsilk · 16/09/2007 17:56

I love flexitol it's brill. I put plastic bags on my feet too when they're really hideous.

norks, do you think you could put your mind to producing clearer, more up close pics please? for the sake of science obv.

ive used it and it does work. but you have to use all the time.

my feet are worse than yours anyway, what you worrying about?? at least yours are clean... im barefoot most of the time. (doesnt say much for my floors, does it? . i mean in the garden too)

moondog · 16/09/2007 18:56

Yes but Duchess,who were you originally?

WideWebWitch · 16/09/2007 18:58

Good lord, that's gross! DD just said 'are your feet like that? sadly, they are

TheDuchessOfFlexiFeet · 16/09/2007 19:33

Moondog - NorksBride, CorpseBride, FawkesBride and about 100 years ago I was CJinSussex.

Oh yes, everyone says it works. But nobody has said it smells of piss. Which is no surprise as it's 2nd ingredient is urea.
