Foot cream type stuff that removes hard skin?

Options
I didn't know what to call this thread!

Basically, I have seen in my local salon a new thing that they re doing where they apply a special cream to the bottom of you foot, where the hard skin is, and the cream kind of dissolves the hard skin on your feet! The skin is then literally scraped off to reveal the new shiny smooth skin underneath :)

I've seen this advertised on the TV before but never taken much notice of it and so can't remember the name.

Does anyone know what this is called? The salon make was called callus peel but I can't find it for sale online anywhere

    I did a search on QVC, think this may be the product you mean

    I can't vouch for it, but it sounds good. There are lots of reviews you can read through too.

    Hi

    I think the one you have seen where you srap off the dead skin after is Balsan. I have used this previously as I suffered with badly cracked heels all the time, however I was not that impressed with it. I cant remeber where I exactly got it from but I purchased it online, its not cheap though.

    I now use Compeed, this is advertised on tv and you can buy it in Boots. You just rub in a small amount of the cream over your heels and leave over night, then when you rub your heel with a pumice it removes the deadskin and leaves your heels alot smoother and with continued use it will remove all hard skin, I then continue use maybe once or twice a month to keep any hard skin from returning. I nolonger have split heels or hard skin.

    Hope this helps
