Greetings to all forum members! When the weather warms up, we all happily climb into light shoes and suddenly find areas of skin on our beloved feet that are not pleasant, hard, but often slightly painful when pressed. Of course, you can soak it for a long time and persistently and then rub, rub and rub again. It’s just that you get tired of rubbing and it’s almost impossible to completely remove it. Once again, I foolishly cut off hard spots with nail clippers - this, of course, was a mistake because it simply hurt me to walk afterwards. If you successfully and painlessly (at home and for little money) got rid of this summer scourge, please share your experience.
Have you tried regular pedicures? They say it helps a lot. )
We all happily climb in light shoes and suddenly discover.
not us, but you! let's climb - hehe, enchanting!
haha gloating is good. I'm very. I love walking, and when you look elegant, the outfit requires heels, you know what you want or not, even if every day you do cleansing and moisturizing procedures in the evening (I don’t accept harsh chemicals that dissolve the skin to the bone), there is still coarsening.
At night, apply a rich cream to your feet and put on warm socks.
+1000))) Any other vegetable oil, but it’s fatty.
Author, I understand you perfectly, and it’s not a matter of pedicure at all. It’s just that when you walk around half the city in a day, and especially regularly, you can’t get away with a simple pedicure!)) Baths with sea salt also help me.
The author here is an aesthetician! what socks? she wears heels when hiking.
Selanka came from point A, Manuela came from point B. Whose heels will be thicker and rougher by the end of the walk?
When I expect that I will be walking a lot, I try not to wear high-heeled shoes, or at least low-heeled ones.
Just a tablespoon of salt per liter of warm water, lower your legs and sit like that for 15-30 minutes. Then rub with pumice, wipe, apply cream. And pay attention to the quality of the shoes. Spend some money on good leather shoes. Otherwise I have some Centro ones lying around. Beautiful, of course, and all the pleasure is 890 rubles, and then your legs will get a full blast!)))
before going to bed every night, a rich cream specifically for the feet. Don't be lazy, and rub, rub. No magic cures have been invented
Steam the legs with soda and salt, then apply special cream “Akriderm” or a cream like that (ask at the pharmacy), put on shoe covers or plastic bags and socks on top (you can do without socks). I do this and it helps a lot.
Have you tried patches for corns at the pharmacy? I bought it for my grandfather, he says it helped a lot!
scholl series is called different creams. Not the cheapest, but it copes with the tasks perfectly)) + I join the bag of cellophane with socks for the night)
This problem is familiar to me because... I'm always on my feet. To begin with, a cream with salicylic or sulfuric acid, for example Doctor Biocon or, a little more expensive, Neutrogena, and then pumice - you can’t do without it and then your feet become like a child’s!
There is a Salipod patch that removes corns. But in general, the root cause of their appearance is, as a rule, transverse flatfoot.
Cream Doctor Sholl. They have different foot problems.
You are a living person, so if you don’t lie down 24 hours a day, you will still have skin on your heels that is not like a baby’s)) I get a pedicure once a week, and still, by Wednesday-Thursday you can already see the corns. So what! Don't die now. I look at the heels of other women, everything is still very acceptable for me. Don’t push yourself, rub and rub once a week and change the coating once a week too. Wear heels for walks less if you don’t want varicose veins by age 30
Every evening: hot shower, scrub, brush, pumice stone, polishing, cocoa butter and socks, and sleep. In winter, there is still a rich cream on top of the butter.
Yes, it’s not long, about 15 minutes in total.
I join in with a rich cream on my feet and socks. But now it’s so hot and I don’t feel like sleeping. I make baths with sea salt. I clean with pumice. Although I rarely wear heels, I still need foot treatments in the summer.
Carboderm ointment contains urea and has an exfoliating effect.
My husband has skin on his legs like a baby’s, even though he’s on his feet all day, I’m already envious, they’re just silky!
Mine too, but I’ve never had a pedicure, parasite))))
maybe it’s a matter of comfortable shoes, when I walk in comfortable sneakers, I also don’t have any corns or calluses, I wore narrow high-heeled shoes for a week, the condition of the skin on my feet has become much worse
Yes. girls, I also wear high heels to work, and then after work, I need to run to the market for groceries, or do something else. And then it turns out that you’ve been running around all day in high heels and your feet are rough and have calluses. I always want to be pretty - in a dress, in heels (((
Girls, someone wrote that you should rub your unsteamed heels, I tried it and it’s really great. the skin does not harden so quickly. I advise everyone
We lower the legs into a bowl of hot water for 40 - 60 minutes. Add 3-4 tablespoons of salt to the basin (artemsol, 1 grind, is quite suitable. It is already sea, purified), 2 tablespoons of soda and 1/2 -1 bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide. After the procedure, walk over the legs with a large pumice stone (lightly , without fanaticism) to remove the loosened layer of dead skin. Rinse and dry your feet (2 such procedures per week and you will forget about pedicure, your feet will always be in excellent condition). To get rid of corns, immediately after this procedure, put rubber slippers (like galoshes) on your dried feet, or buy shoe covers at the pharmacy, pour 1/4 or 1/2 bottles with 3% into the slippers/shoe covers/bags (whatever you put on anyway). hydrogen peroxide (do not dilute it with anything) and walk until you get tired of it - 1-2 hours. We always make sure that the peroxide washes the fingers and all calluses and corns that need to be treated. If you will be walking for more than 2 hours, pour out the old peroxide and add fresh one. You can do such procedures at least every day, but as experience shows, 2 times a week is enough for your heels to be pink, and after 2 procedures with peroxide the corns become half their size. If the shoes are not too tight, the corns will go away completely. I usually do all this on the computer :)))
I advise you to follow Tatyana’s advice No. 32, only instead of pumice, use an abrasive mesh, sold in construction stores (for sanding putty), it comes in different numbers, from coarse to fine. Using alternate numbers, we achieve an excellent result without damaging the skin.
Calluses on rough skin can be very carefully and effectively removed from the feet with Wartner TCA gel. I removed it myself within a week, so I think it’s a very good remedy.
Walk barefoot around the city. It will rub off on the asphalt.
So, do you go for walks in heels? author, maybe you should clean your head instead of your heels?
that’s what kind of people are nasty to you in a normal way a person asked a question you don’t know so go ahead and don’t litter everything. I found the ideal) BE PEOPLE if you don’t know how to help a person then get lost and don’t be sarcastic
Well, I used to get rid of corns with pumice, like many people, I think, then I looked on the Internet for maybe some other remedies, I found some kind of socks they call something, you keep your feet in them for an hour and all the bad skin comes off from the foot, I found a store and ordered it, Of course, I read the reviews before purchasing, the girls write that they really work, I think the name is SOSU socks, I ordered them personally here http://1up-seller.ru, look, I liked it, it turns out they really remove the bad skin, so think for yourself, of course, but I liked it.
And don’t tell me, mine has the same crap, but mine is just crap compared to him.
Mine is doing all right in the winter, but in the summer after a spanking it gets very bad calluses. My legs certainly look much better.
Our Russian healer cream is very helpful for corns. It is based on urea, is inexpensive, but works almost miracles if used regularly
What does regular mean? Once a week or what?
Once a week is clearly not enough. At first you need to smear it every day. And then to maintain good condition of the legs, once a week is enough.
By the way, this healer, among other things, also helps with tired legs. It contains tea tree essential oil, which provides quick relief to your feet.
Now I prefer L'Occitane foot cream, it helps me with corns very well, but most of all I like to use it in the summer.
Corns or dry calluses are thickening of the skin of the feet that can appear in both women and men. The problem cannot be ignored. The compaction worsens, cracks appear through which pathogenic bacteria penetrate, and dirt accumulates. There are many remedies for eliminating corns at home.
Despite the fact that the fairer sex monitors the condition of their feet more carefully, they more often have to deal with corns and dry calluses. This happens due to tight shoes. Especially often, the skin on the heels and big toes of those girls who prefer to wear high-heeled shoes becomes rough. Provoking factors for the development of corns also include flat feet and excess weight.
What is the difference between a callus and corns? In both cases, hard skin forms on the feet. The difference is that corns often do not have clear boundaries, while calluses have a clear round shape. The same techniques can be used to treat pathologies.
Uncomfortable shoes are the main cause of corns
Various techniques can be used to remove calluses. To effectively cope with the problem, you should seek help from a cosmetologist. The specialist will assess the condition of the feet and advise which method is suitable for restoring the skin in a particular case. If the problem is neglected, then it can be quickly solved only with the help of hardware cosmetology. The following methods are considered effective:
Hardware methods are recommended to be used when conservative treatment does not give a positive result or the corns are too advanced.
Sanding is an effective way to get rid of rough skin
All anti-callus products have antiseptic and keratolytic effects. The drugs presented in pharmacies have a similar composition. In most cases the following components are used:
All products help soften rough skin, making the callus easily removed using mechanical action. You can hear a lot of good reviews about Superantimozolin. The active component of the ointment is lactic acid, which makes rough skin soft in a matter of days. Ointment for corns and calluses should be used with extreme caution. Aggressive products have a negative effect on healthy skin. Therefore, it is necessary to apply the product strictly to calluses.
Ointments effectively soften the skin thanks to the acids included in the composition.
Bensalitin ointment also shows good results. The active ingredient is salicylic acid. The product is used not only to soften calluses. The ointment also has wound healing and regenerating effects. Thanks to this, it is possible to quickly restore the skin after removing roughness. This ointment for calluses and corns also negatively affects the healthy epidermis. Therefore, before using the medicine, it is recommended to lubricate the area around the callus with Vaseline.
Salicylic ointment is the cheapest but most effective remedy for dry calluses and corns. The drug not only softens rough skin, but also fights infection. Therefore, it is advisable to use ointment if cracks have already appeared on the heels. Salicylic ointment is available for sale with varying concentrations of the active substance. It is recommended to use a 10 percent product.
An alcohol solution (Salicylic alcohol) can also be used to combat rough skin on the feet. However, this remedy is less effective. Preparations based on salicylic acid should not be used in case of impaired renal function, as well as in case of individual intolerance. Such medications are not used to treat young children.
Remedies against calluses and corns are also available in the form of gels and creams. They have the same active ingredients as ointments. However, a less aggressive concentration is used. The risk of harming healthy skin using such products is reduced significantly. Good reviews can be heard about the “Lekar” cream, created on the basis of urea. In addition, the product contains tea tree oil, which perfectly softens rough skin and promotes the regeneration of damaged cells. The cream for corns is hypoallergenic.
Sagitta gels for removing calluses and corns are a whole series of products that are very popular. The cosmetics are intended for professional use in salons, but are also available to retail customers. To remove rough skin, you need to apply a small amount of the product, and after 10-15 minutes treat the area with callus with pumice. The only disadvantage of this method is the cost. Sagitta gel with a volume of 500 ml will cost about 1,500 rubles.
Cream Doctor - an effective and inexpensive remedy for dry calluses
To remove “petrified” skin on the feet, you can use Callus away. This is an American-made gel that is specially created to solve the problem of dry calluses. All you need to do is apply a small amount of product to the rough area, and after 10 minutes treat it with a nail file (included in the kit).
In pharmacies you can find many anti-callus plasters from various companies. But Compeed products are considered the most popular. The patch is a disc impregnated with salicylic acid. Thanks to the use of the product, damaged cells are gradually destroyed and the epidermis on the feet is restored.
In order for the patch to work more effectively, it is necessary to thoroughly steam the rough area before using it. An interesting fact is that the patch itself disappears after the salicylic acid stops working. If the callus is not too large, using the product will get rid of it in a matter of days.
Plasters will help get rid of small corns
In many cosmetic stores you can find socks for calluses and corns. Those who want to save money should pay attention to Chinese-made goods. The socks are polyethylene cases with a special gel inside. It consists of the following components:
Pedicure socks will make your feet soft
Socks for calluses and corns have a complex effect. Some components act directly on rough skin, softening it, while others care for healthy skin and help restore damaged epidermis. The advantage of socks is that they not only make the feet soft and smooth, but also eliminate excessive sweating of the feet and protect the skin from fungus.
Using socks is quite simple. After hygiene procedures, you must thoroughly dry your feet and put plastic covers on your feet. Exposure time is 40-60 minutes. The legs must be in an upright position, otherwise the gel may leak. After the procedure, your feet should be washed again and your socks should be thrown away.
If you notice a problem at an early stage, it can be solved with minimal financial costs. Effective traditional medicine recipes will come to the rescue.
Compresses with onions - an effective folk remedy against calluses
Any of the listed methods is effective for small calluses and corns. Removal of fossilized skin should be carried out using more aggressive means.
In winter, I hardly encounter this problem, but in summer, the skin on my feet becomes quite rough. Simple soda baths help me. And one day a callus appeared due to low-quality sandals. A patch helped, I don’t remember the name.
Somehow, out of curiosity, I ordered pedicure socks from a Chinese website. Great stuff! Feet after use are like a baby's. In winter I do the procedure once a month, and in summer almost every 4-5 days. I think it’s thanks to these socks that I don’t have to deal with serious corns.
If the problem is running, then you cannot do without hardware removal. I regularly visit a cosmetologist, and if small calluses are found, the specialist uses a Callus away remover. Several years ago, I had a callus with a core removed using a laser.
