Review (2/5): Alcohol Foot Bath
First off, I didn’t buy this through Amazon, but found it at a local grocery store.
Second, I had never used a foot peel before, but had used callus scrubbers in the past and was looking for something more gentle.
Third, reading the ingredients and instructions, it sounded more like thin socks that had been soaked in a solution. So I was pretty surprised when I opened the package to see a lot of fluid.
I decided to find a way to carefully put these things on, and proceeded to read as I waited. However, after about 20mins, I felt an odd tingling, burning kind of sensation. Checked the instructions and ingredients again and noticed that alcohol was in the top.
I have had eczema in the past, so I began to freak and looked up reviews on Amazon. Slightly horrified by the accounts of issues lasting for weeks, I quickly removed the product and dunked my feet into a warm water bath to find that me feet were so sensitive to temperature, that I felt like I had stuck them into a pot of water still boiling on the stove.
Maybe they work, but they are definitely not what I’d recommend to anyone who has had problematic skin like eczema and psoriasis in the past.
