Review (4/5): One of the best tools I've found for callus removal
I was excited to finally purchase & try out the O'vinna remover because my feet can get very callused from wearing heels, regular exercise/running, and I live in NYC, so walking is my most frequent mode of transportation. It lived up to many of the reviews I read before I purchased, is a great tool I use frequently, and helps me extend time between pedicures.
Positives:
1. Most effective filing tool I’ve used. Much better results and softer feet than using pumice stones, or foot files.
2. To be used on dry feet, versus other foot files which require you soak before use. This helps save time and it’s not as much of a process, so I use more frequently.
3. Can feel results quickly and see results on the sander. It’s actually pretty disgusting to see the dead skin, but reassurance it’s doing a great job.
Negatives:
1. Doesn’t break down deeper layer of calluses the way that a liquid Callus Remover or Razor does. I still use both about 1-2 times a month, but before I started using this electric remover, I was using the Liquid Remover/Razer 1x a week.
2. Pretty loud, (which means it’s working), and sounds like a little piece of machinery. This wouldn’t be an accessory you could bring to the gym with you, and use discretely after a workout, before a shower.
