Baby Foot users, do you get blisters after running or long walks after using Baby Foot? I have callus and hard skin on my feet. Every time the nail technician cleans them, I get bad blisters after long walks. A friend who is a runner told me that she does not get callus and hard skin removed because of this reason.

I love Baby Foot and think the secret is keeping it on even longer (and soaking feet before you apply). I did two hours two weeks ago and the results are amazing. Definitely something to try given you aren't happy with your current routine.

To really get a good peel going, you have to soak your feet every day. Then we're talking corn chip city!

Same. I tried them twice — once with Baby Foot and once with another brand. I didn’t get dramatic results.

OP here. Well, I'm not sure. The foot rasp makes an immediate difference, since it peels away thick, rough skin like a cheese grater. The 40% urea I slather on afterward is supposed to soften the skin and keep it from thickening again, but maybe I don't use it often enough: the one I have has a scent and thick texture I don't like, and I hate having to wear socks to bed I only remember to do it when my heels start to bother me... Perhaps if I were diligent about it, it would actually work better.

This is why the idea of a foot peel I can do every 3 months is interesting to me.





This all changed for me when I got diligent about preventative self-care. I use a pumice stone in the shower most days, and several times a week I slather on the Lush peppermint foot lotion, and then put either CeraVe "healing ointment" or Burt's Bee's Coconut Foot Cream on my heels and also on a rough spot at the ball of my foot, put on socks and leave them on for awhile. I can't sleep with socks either, so I don't. I have found that the creams work within and hour or two anyway, no need to wear the socks all night. My heels have looked fine every since I got good about doing this, and they used to look cracked. Some nights I just put some foot lotion on before I go to sleep and don't worry about needing socks (I have a tube of it that I got at TJ Maxx or something in my night stand and just grab it and use it -- I don't bother to go get my Lush peppermint cream).

I don't think a peel every three months is going to do it.


OP here. That's great! But I have no illusions about myself and my ADHD The only skincare I remember to do diligently is moisturizer and sunscreen. That's it.

I’ve done baby foot peel and the generic stuff and both work, but you have to be diligent about soaking your feet every night.

Baby foot peel is both awesome and disgusting. I usually do it end of March, to get ready for summer pedicure mid-April. The peeling part really is so gross - you can see images online, but it does leave your feet gorgeous

Baby Foot Peel is the one to use. But you must follow the directions. And you will peel. It's gross but it works.

I once went to a Korean spa and whatever she did to my feet was AMAZING. The best spa pedicure I have ever had. Unfortunately it was not in this area.

I’ve used Babyfoot in the past and have gotten good results, but I hate the peeling process. The best thing I’ve used is one of these electric foot files:

I have dry skin on my soles and thickened skin on my heels. I've been using a foot rasp on the heels and following up with urea cream and socks at night, but I'm wondering if there's a better way. Would a foot peel help? Which brand would you recommend?
