Foot peel

[Anonymous]

Have never done the Baby Foot Peel before. Found a well rated tea tree oil foot peel mask on Amazon. Do you have a good experience with a foot peel? Concerned mainly about cracked heels.

Yes, I do it every six months, four "doses" in a year.

I just did the first set of booties in early April, with a second set of booties three weeks later. I will do the same thing in October-- one set of booties in early October, with a second set 2-3 weeks later.

It is a disgusting experience while the feet are peeling, but it is lovely once they are finished!

I did Baby Foot years ago and it was amazing.

I tried a knock off from Nuva Spa in March and nothing happened.

We did baby foot AGAIN two nights ago (my husband really needed it).

If you are going to do it - do it now. You can wear sandals until the peeling starts but then you have 4-7 days of wearing socks all the time (or leave skin trailing behind you)

I felt like it changed my feet dramatically.

I’m intrigued by this. Does it hurt? Will my feet be raw? Any other downsides to consider other than having to wear socks?

Anyone know why pregnant women can’t use baby foot? I saw that right before I ordered on amazon but can’t figure out why. But my feet are so gross

Just did one. My heels were soooo bad. And now? Baby feet! It is a ton of skin that comes off. A ton. But your feet won’t be raw. I walk for exercise and noticed my shoes rubbed a little differently so I took it easier (I walk 6-10 miles a day usually). But no blisters or anything. It doesn’t work immediately. You leave it on for an hour and a week later the peeling begins. Lasts a few days.

Doesn’t hurt at all! Unless you start peeling off layers. Once it starts wear socks to bed or you’ll have sheets full of dead skin overnight. Be prepared to wear full coverage shoes for a week or so to hide the peeling. There was another long thread with lots of tips!

Why is it not recommended for pregnant women?
According to the Baby Foot website, the product should be avoided “during pregnancy, lactation, or menstruation because during this period the skin becomes more sensitive due to the disruption of normal hormone balance.” The product also contains at least one ingredient that can have devastating effects on fetal development: salicylic acid. Classified as a category C drug by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), animal studies have linked salicylic acid and birth defects.

“In terms of pregnancy and breastfeeding, the absorption of these products is very low through the skin, especially on the feet,” Agarwal says. “However, the other ‘natural’ extracts could be supplements or vitamins that are not recommended for pregnant women, so I would advise anyone who is pregnant or nursing to avoid use.”

I tried Baby Foot and another brand and absolutely nothing happened. Can anyone recommend a specific brand that’s super strength? Or super reliable?

Do you put it everywhere, or just callouses?

It’s a sock you stick your foot in. So you can’t just put it on calluses

I thought it was glycolic acid, which is not recommended during pregnancy.

Even the parts of your foot that don’t have rough skin will peel without rawness or soreness?

Baby Feet did nothing for me after sev attempts. I also tried the Amope, which resulted in showing small white particles, like when you file your nails, but no real fixing of the problem. My heels were disgusting 4 days ago. I remembered I’d bought this after having a nail salon use it on me. The salon had charged $5 extra for it, but it is reasonably priced on Amazon:

It is amazing! I follow the directions exactly and use a pumice stone (not a rasp). If my feet were a 2 before, they are an 8.5 now. Wear gloves, soak feet ahead of time and good luck. I’ve been searching for something that works for a very long time.

Glycolic is ok during pregnancy, SA is not. Babyfoot contains both.
