Always been curious about this. When the peeling is occurring, is your pores and skin extra touchy? How lengthy does the dry pores and skin come back once you’ve executed the peel?

I tried something similar once by applying a home made salicylic acid solution and wrapping my feet in plastic wrap. It worked, but the effect was not enough and I didn’t like having peeling feet for a week. The whole point is to get pretty feet? Also I was afraid that for it to exfoliate the hard bits enough, it would be too agressive on the soft parts.

Now I want to try something like this:

Works with fruit acids too, but immediately and only on the though parts. Unfortunately is often not sold to consumers. I could try to make something with lactic acid, but I’d have to be careful and start with a lower percentage till I found the perfect percentage, effective, yet still safe.

I have used these peels (my favorite is Tony Moly Shiny Foot) several times and I love them. My feet seem to build up layers of skin pretty quickly, I always had that problem. I do pedicure routine every 2 weeks using callus shavers, then smoothing with pumice. I use creams and lotions and hardly ever wear shoes on bare feet and still the thick skin forms. Must be a curse or something 😀 (actually my father has the same problem so I am blaming him). Anyway – I use these peels in addition to my regular routine because they remove hardened skin in places where shaving would be too tricky – tips of the toes or around the nail bed. My skin is stubborn – I keep the peeling liquid on for 2 hours, then after about 10 days the peeling begins and lasts for about 5 days. I’ve discovered these peels by reading Asian Beauty on Reddit.

In reply to Michelle. So, I'm so scared. I made a mask of the boot on my face. Looking at all the chemical peels I decided to try and get some of the solution above and below my eyes. I'm seriously thinking I am going to go blind. The warning of the tony moly foot sock says avoid getting in eyes. I don't mind my face peeling. I rubbed the solution from the cut out eye are on my eyelid. Sitting here regretting my vanity- cheap. Can you please respond. Will the solution slack through my eyelids and eat my eyes? I know it sounds crazy but with a delayed peeling reaction I don't know the damage I've potentially done, you seem smart. Thank you, worried sick. Roberta

In reply to Laura M. They're approved - since they only claim to work on the dead layers of the skin, they count as cosmetics (although the line is very blurry and the FDA definitions desperately need updating).

So “chemical” exfoliation — is this regulated by the FDA or is it considered a “cosmetic” rather than a drug? And have any of these products actually been approved? (if required, of course . . . )

And if the AHAs are chemical exfoliants, are these products really “all-natural” as many claim?

Thanks

Can I quote your article? I’m writing a piece for a website and was looking for some insight on the actual science of foot peels?
