Foot peeling pack, a great invention to satisfy your peel porn and achieve baby smooth feet while at it. This time, we're reviewing the Calmia Silky Perfect Foot Peeling Pack, a pack that I've gotten during my 2016 Althea Xmas haul. In the previous foot peel pack reviews, I've reviewed the Kocostar Foot Peeling Pack and Lazy Monk Foot Peel Mask. I'll be doing a comparison between the foot peeling pack to determine the best of the three.
Calmia Silky Perfect Foot Peeling Pack
Calmia Silky Perfect Foot Peeling Pack is a convenient foot mask pack that is perfect for exfoliation. The effect is said to be very obvious. It will help peel your feet, leaving the baby-soft finish with one use.
Unlike the other foot peeling packs that I've tried, the silky perfect foot peeling pack separates the socks from the liquid. This help preserves the liquid at its optimal state, allowing it to be at the freshest when you use it. Various kinds of vegetable ingredients prevent skin irritation and make the skin soft and healthy. Aside from giving you baby soft skin, it can help nourish and moisturize the skin at the same time.
When using the socks, the peeling starts 4 to 6 days after usage and it will stop peeling after 2 weeks.
The foot peeling socks was rather big. They do not have stickers to secure your socks instead they have these extra-long lines so that you can tie them to your ankles.
The peeling liquid is sticky and clear. It has a strong, citric acid scent. Since you have to pour the liquid into the socks by yourself, it can be a messy affair. Especially for clumsy individuals like myself. Since it is made out of plastic, they are rather noisy when you adjust your feet.
How to use Calmia Silky Perfect Foot Peeling Pack
- Put peeling liquid into foot sheet.
- Wear the foot mask and tie up the socks at your ankles.
- Take off after 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Wash the foot clean with flowing water.
Tip 1: Wear Sleeping Socks
One of the tips given was to wear a sleeping sock on top of the foot mask to improve the effects of the peeling pack. It is recommended for you to do it at a cool area for your feet gets hot and stuffy as time pass. Since it was secured via binding, you should not leave your feet up to prevent the peeling liquid from flowing out.
Upon trying the pack for the first time, my feet felt rather cool. Due to the liquid swirling around in the socks, it felt like my feet were swimming in their pool. As time pass, it started to feel like a mini sauna instead.
Before usage
My feet were in a rather healthy condition. Aside from the uneven skin tone and a circular scar at the back of my feet, my feet were not particularly rough or dry. Alike most feet, the heel and mounds were the coarsest part of the foot.
After using the Silky Perfect Foot Peeling Pack
After soaking my feet for 1 to 1.5 hours, my feet felt tight and wrinkly after the release from the peeling pack. Even after rinsing off the liquid, the smell still lingers. On the other hand, my feet do feel cleaner than usual. The peeling will start 4 to 6 days after usage but even at day 0, I had the urge to pull off the outer skin. It gave me the feeling that my skin is slowly separating itself from my feet despite no signs of peeling.
Since AHA and BHA were involved in the formation of this liquid, it is no doubt one's feet will feel dry during the peeling process. For maximum effect, one should not apply lotion during this period. You can only apply some if it is overly drying.
Tip 2: Soak in Warm Water
To increase the effects of peeling, it is recommended that one should soak their foot in warm water for about 20 minutes from day 2 onwards.
Day 1 to 3
On the first day, my feet have started to feel dry, rough and almost plastic-like. My feet no longer feet natural. Instead, it feels like I have an outer layer of scales instead. Day 2 was when I started my warm foot bath. The condition of my feet still stayed the same. Day 3 was when the preparation of the peelings started. My skin was getting rough and dry.
Day 4
Day 4 was when it started to peel at the side of the foot. Parts of the skin could be seen stripping away from my foot. The exfoliation effect happens more after soaking in warm water. Some part of the skin also fell off during the soaking process.
Day 5 - Before Soaking in Warm Water
The mounds and toes on my right foot were peeling more than the other side. The toes on my left side were starting to peel as well. Other than that, the foot seemed fine.
Day 5 - After Soaking in Warm Water
Things escalated greatly after soaking in warm water. My right foot looked like a snake shedding its skin by the time it dried. The toe on both feet was peeling better as well.
Although it is recommended to let the skin peel by its own, I can't help but pull off some of the bigger pieces by myself. Look at the skin. They even had the lines on the feet. Are we no different from a snake?
Day 6
Day 6 is where the mess peeling process happen. A huge tip, don't wear slippers under the rain when your feet are shedding. The peeling process will escalate greatly once comes in contact with water. I was able to feel the skin shed from my feet as I walk. It was a huge mess. The skin that has yet to peel off felt clammy while the skin that was exposed felt so soft and smooth under. It felt free and breathable once the skin peeled.
Day 7
The base fully came off 1 week after application. The skin looked renewed, softer and smoother. It also looks very clean. Now is the time where the skin on the top of the feet sheds fully.
Day 8
Day 8 is the last day of my record. My feet fully peeled. Although there were little bits and pieces of skin here and there, this was the maximum my skin can shed. It is recommended that after the completion of peeling, one should regularly use Calmia, Silky Repair Foot Pack to ensure soft and healthy feet. Since I did not purchase that, I'm just going to leave this review here.
I'll be comparing the 3 brands of foot peel pack in my next post. In the meantime, read the other 2-foot peel masks reviews here:
