I have been seeing a lot of YouTube videos for foot peels and they are interesting to say the least! I have always suffered from rough, dry feet (especially in the winter), so I thought I would finally take the plunge and try this little bit of sorcery out for myself.
Pedi Pamper Foot Peel Mask Treatment

On one of my typical wild and crazy Saturday nights, I hunkered down with a glass of wine, comfy pajamas and my foot peel, and got to work. I followed the very brief instructions provided and cut open the top of the booties and stuck my clean, dry feet inside. I taped them up so they were nice and tight, put on a pair of them thar fancy hospital socks, and waited the requisite 60-70 minutes to let magic happen.
There is legit no shame in my game.
Once the 70 minutes was up (yes, I went for the gusto), I removed the booties and rinsed my feet in clean warm water. I put the fancy hospital socks back on and waited.
And waited.
And waited.
I should tell you, to move the peeling process along you should soak your dogs in warm water for at least 10 minutes a day. I did this each night before bed.
I knew from watching YouTube videos and reading the reviews that patience is a virtue when it comes to foot peels, but the anticipation was killing me. I am a picker, I admit, and I couldn’t wait to get to peeling away the roughness and exposing my baby soft feet.
By Monday, there was a bit of peeling around my toes. OK, no big woop. They say to let the peeling happen naturally so I did my very best to leave the tootsies alone, but mindlessly I picked.
But on Wednesday, the real magic happened. After my a.m. shower, I checked my feet and oh lawd, were they ripe for the pickin’!
Sorry, but couldn’t resist. I got busy peeling. And it was AH-MAZ-ING!

By the end of the day, all of the rough, dry skin was gone and I was left with nothing but baby soft feet and a pile of foot peelings (right). My feet are soft and smooth now, and all that rough stuff around my heels is gone. This stuff is phenomenal.
A few notes:
- If you are sensitive to smell, the strong scent is based on the 6-powerful plant based extracts and 5 alphahydroxy acids in this skin peel mask. I didn’t really think too much about it. It didn’t smell that bad to me at all.
- There is zero pain. It should not cause any discomfort at all, but I did find that a small, slightly healed cut on my toe did sting while in the booties, clearly from the acid(s).
- Also, it’s gonna wreck your pedicure. The alcohol and salicylic acid will dissolve your polish, so I strongly suggest either doing this when you're ready for a new pedi, or on bare toes.
