I've heard about these for years and put off buying one because I generally have somewhat sensitive skin and was worried that it would dissolve my body from the ankles down. I hate feet, hate them, so I am really lazy about giving myself pedicures and have never had a professional one done because the only thing worse than touching my own feet is letting someone else touch them. Feet. Eew. *shudder*

Needless to say, my feet were in horrible shape. I have hard, calloused spots on the sides of my feet, bad heels and pads, arches that need exfoliation, and just dry ugly skin every where. These arrived on a Thursday and I just couldn't wait to try them.

- The packaging says to soak your feet first to better results. I didn't bother. I had just showered, so my feet were still somewhat soft from that, so I just rewashed them and jumped into it. Hindsight, I would've soaked them for 20 minutes in a epsom salt bath. Not sure if it would actually help, but it would be worth testing next time.

- The instructions recommend putting socks over the booties while they work. I did this, because I figured if it helps my hairmasks to have a shower cap on, it can't hurt here. Warmth helps things soak into the skin better. It also helped the liquid to settle next to my skin better. I felt like, without the socks, my feet just swam around in the booties.

- I found the liquid annoying to wash off at the end. I washed from the knees down, just to make sure I didn't miss anything and still had to go back and wash my ankles again when they were sticky from residue. I used my daughter's baby shampoo to get my skin clean, I think that a moisturizing body wash would have troubles. Maybe use shampoo if you don't keep baby shampoo/bodywash around the house.

- I wear socks in the daytime, but hate sleeping with them, so I went sockless for that night and the next. Since I had showered just before using them on Thursday, I didn't bother showering Friday. Saturday, I plugged the tub and let it fill to my ankles while I showered, draining it at the end so that my feet could get a mini soak. Saturday night, I noticed my skin near my big toe looked like it wanted to start peeling, so I started wearing socks to sleep so it wouldn't make a mess (something other reviewers complain about but the instructions even advise). It was worse Sunday night. Monday morning when I showered, it was the weirdest feeling. Stepping out, the skin on my arches had bubbled out and was barely holding on. It was so satisfying to pull it away.

- My skin continued to peel quite well until that following Thursday (a week after application) when it slowed significantly. My feet were rather tender, and the skin around my ankles, toes, and the tops of my feet still needed to peel. I continued to soak my feet in the shower, but they stopped peeling, even though they needed to.

TIPS FOR USE
- Wiggle your toes while wearing the booties. It helps make sure it's all between your toes so they peel better.
- Wear socks. You probably won't need them the first night or two, but afterwards, start wearing them. You will peel every where. Turn them inside out and give them a good shake over a trash bin before washing them, because it's seriously icky.
- Soak your feet daily. It really helps you remove the skin faster. A 20 mins epsom salt bath will be the best, but it's not needed. Just filling the tub with water to my ankles while I showered was enough.
- It can take 3-7 days before you start seeing even the beginnings of peeling. My sister did this the same time as me and she didn't start even the tiniest bit of peeling until late in the 7th day. Afterwards, it can take up to 2 weeks to fully peel.
- Once the biggest bit of the peeling has finished and your feet no longer feel tender from the new skin, exfoliate. Exfoliating gloves are like $5 a pair, they exfoliate well and work without pressure that could damage your skin.
- Consider switching from lotion to oil while peeling. I usually use a foot cream at night because it's about all I can handle touching my feet. I tried cream one night and I hated how it felt. Switched to body oil and it helped me moisturize the newly exposed skin and didn't feel as icky. I think the oil also helped soften the skin as it was peeling.
- This can only remove so much skin at a time. It's not going to work miracles. If your feet are in horrendous shape, be prepared to need anywhere between 1-4 applications. Mine were in horrible shape and I think I will need to do this twice, maybe three times.

The instructions say you can do this every two weeks after the first application, but I don't think I recommend that. Maybe if you have skin of steel that can handle anything, but considering that bits are still peeling by the second week, I would skip it. I'm at like 18 days past application and I feel comfortable ordering another, but probably won't use it for another week or two. I think once a month will be my winning ticket. I am so happy I tried this. Such an amazing product!

I love this product. If you have calluses, or dry skin on your this product takes it off. Your feet won't peel initially but in a couple of days your feet really start peeling but your gonna love your feet.

It definitely works. It cleans up your toes and cuticles, too. Wear socks for about 1 week duration afterwards, because you will shed skin everywhere.

This product does work. At first I was getting disappointed, as many stated it's over by 2 weeks. For me, it didn't start until 2 weeks.

I still had doubts, even as it started working, because unfortunately one week after using the product I broke my toe. I was on crutches, then when my walking foot started peeling it was only on the heavily used areas. So I thought the excess use was really what caused peeling, otherwise it wouldn't have. After a while, other areas started, then finally, I knew it was amazing because my foot with the broken toe finally caught up. I think it was delayed since no pressure was put on it. But, many weeks later, it worked.

Tips: do factor in much longer than 2 weeks, just in case. Soak your feet in water for a good long while before use and daily afterwards. Leave product on 1.5-2 hours. Take daily soaking seriously!

Bye bye cracked heels and tough calluses. Hello baby feet!

I have no idea how i ever lived without this product, it's better than a pedicure. (Not even a close comparison) i use it every 3 months give or take and I'm blown away everytime. It's a bit pricey but it's worth it in my opinion. Keep in mind if you're looking for results by a specific day, i suggest doing this 7-10 days before that date, results aren't immediate
