Summer is so close we can almost see our sandals getting released from the back of the wardrobe! But what state are your feet in after a winter of socks, boots and no pedicures? We’ve rounded up the ten best at-home treatments for your feet to make sure that you’re ready to slip into your favourite summer shoes at the next sight of sun!
Footner Exfoliating Socks, £19.99, Boots
New improved Footner Exfoliating Socks have been reformulated to deliver soft, supple feet in half the time. The new fast acting formula delivers a cosmetic peel twice as fast as the original – on average in seven rather than fourteen days. It now takes only three days or less for the peel to start, followed by just four days of peeling to reveal perfect feet. Simply pre-soak feet in water, slip on the Footner Exfoliating Socks and relax for 60 minutes. The active alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) in Footner, also used in cosmetic skin peels, soften the hard skin build up and loosen the ‘glue’ that binds dead skin cells together, starting the exfoliation process naturally. Only the dead skin cells are removed, leaving feet pedi-perfect.
