You put these bags on your feet for an hour. They have some kind of a fruit extract in them that gets rid of dead skin. After a couple of days the skin starts to peel off. Looks really good on the web site but am wondering if anyone has ever used it?

Sounds a little "too good to be true" to me...

I've seen it from a friend and it honestly does work very well. It's just a nasty process'

A salon in my area had something called an "orange peel" a few years ago that sounds very similar. I wonder if it's the same thing with a new name? I haven't been there since so I don't know if they still offer that service. The pics on the ad looked really gross.

There's an orange based cleaner that is said to make old skillets look like new. Eats off all the years of accumulated yucky. I'm thinking the referenced products do the same to our feet. I have feet that probably could use that treatment but it sounds scary.

Funny you should post about this. I just used it for the first time on Tuesday. After reading about it online and looking at reviews I finally figured I would go ahead and try it. Nothing is supposed to happen until around day 3-7. I'll try to remember to come back and let you know what I think.

No stinging. I thought it tingled a bit.

I haven't used it personally but I've heard it's very effective, and a nutty Facebook friend actually posted pics and a video of herself peeling the dead skin off her feet :-0 puke

Yea, no. I don't feel comfortable using something that will make my skin peel. Ew.
I watched some you tube reviews and quite a number said it itches a lot while in the peeling process.
I have had good luck with exfoliating my feet with a foot exfoliator, then washing my feet, and applying O'Keeffe's for Healthy Feet foot cream.
Took about a week of doing it morning and night to see the cracks and dry skin gone on my heels.
Now I just exfoliate 1x a week and put the cream on nightly

Not something I want to try! I just go to the podiatrist and he tidies up my feet every few months (I do a lot of running). Gets rid of rough skin, callouses etc and boy do they feel good afterwards.

Is this better than the vinegar/Listerine soak?

I bought a Baby Foot knock off on eBay for like, a dollar, and that did absolutely nothing  I wasn't very surprised. But I have heard that the real Baby Foot is a great product that actually works. |

There's places that you can go and sit in a huge tub full of goldfish. Apparently they like to eat the dead skin off of your body. Your feet would make a lot of fish fat and sassy.

There's some freaky people in the world man, lol! Anyway, I just ordered some...we'll see how it goes.  |

I just looked at a ton of google pics. Now I'm wondering if it is good to take several layers of skin off your foot. Does it remove callouses and corns and such? I'm kind of wondering if feet are really sensitive when that much skin is removed. Interesting though.

I tried it and it really did make my feet smoother. It wasn't a miracle cure by any means and it didn't completely remove my callouses, but still, it was pretty effective. It was also very messy when my feet started peeling. For about a week after I put the stuff on my feet it seemed like nothing at all was going to happen. I remember the skin on my feet feeling very tight, but I figured I had wasted money. After about six days though, my feet started peeling like crazy. It was in the summertime and the dead skin got all over my carpet. I tried to wear socks most of the time in the house, but when I got up in the morning and my feet hit the floor it left dead skin behind. I really didn't like that part of it at all and I didn't like the skin feeling so tight on my feet before it started peeling. I get similar results by going to get a pedicure and it is far less messy for me. I think it worked as promised, but I won't do it again.

I am going to get some (I had heard about it on the old board) but I was waiting until didn't have pedicure toes because I don't want to ruin my pretty nail polish. I hope it works...it is kind of weird tough.
