I have tried a foot mask some year ago and the peeling effect was really awesome. I believed I tried babyfoot brand which was bought in Hong Kong. This time, I just got what was available on qoo10 at about $7 each with shipping. I think this is quite reasonable and cheap as compared to other alternatives. I ordered two so that bf and I can couple couple together since his feet always seems to peel.
In each box, there is a pair of large plastic 'socks' and the liquid pack in right and left packaging. The socks are quite big in size but if your feet is like size 10 male size or somthing, it is just going to fit just nice (like for my bf's case). There is double layer in the socks to provide more protection.
The first step is to wear the socks on both feet. Pour each pack of liquid mask into each socks. Tie the ribbon at the ankles so that the socks can stay in place better. Keep the mask on for 1.5 hours before you proceed to the toilet and wash it off. During this period of time, it is best to just sit down and watch tv or use the computer. I recommend that you move your feet to spread out the liquid, ensuring that it covers more surface, maximising the effect.
After the first and second day, nothing happened! I was so disappointed and thought that it didn't work. Then the third day it starts to peel a little like the below. Yay! I can peel the skin at this point without feeling pain. Haha.
As days pass, the skin continues to peel and peel in larger pieces. It drops everywhere I walk at home so I recommend some home slippers during this period of time. Also, skin will start to drop more after every shower and bath upon contact with water. That is when I start to peel off all the almost-dropping skin if not they will just be littered all over.
It might be quite gross to some people but I felt shiok to see dead skin come off and new skin gets reborn :D. My heels were very dry. It comes to a point I was so fed up with the dropping skin, I decided to soak my feet in warm water and rub them to make the skin drop off. Even after doing that, there is still some areas left.
I think after about 4 to 5 days, you will finally have more "clean skin". The heels are clearly less cracked, although I think I need a few more consistent treatment to get the thickness off. The packaging instructions state that the best interval to use the mask is every month as that is the time required for the skin to renew itself.
Overall, I love peeling foot mask! Gives you nice smooth feet, at least for awhile before the friction slowly "destructs" them again :)
