Don't Be So Callus!

Having a callus is no laughing matter. I know I have one on each foot. I have tried everything I can at home to get rid of it. I tried callus pads, they cushion a little but stil hurt. I tried filing, buffing, rubbing and soaking. I tried Callus removing serum. I wouldn't recommend that one.

I put the liquid on as directed twice a day. After two days, my feet were purple, peeling and burning everywhere EXCEPT where the callus was!! Not good. I decided to give up and try to find a podiatrist to help me out since at this point I was too afraid to even go for a pedicure!

A few days later I was looking through my latest Avon catalog to get ready for marketing. Lo and behold there was an Intensive Callus Cream. It looked more like a lotion, but what could it hurt. At this point anything to stop the peeling and burning was fine by me! So I ordered it.I have been using it for 3 days.

My feet have never been softer, smoother or happier!! The calluses are still there, but they are getting softer. They don't hurt anymore and I can actually wear shoes with some degree of incline! I would recommend this stuff to anyone that wants happy feet!!

Completely Clean Anti-Aging Thermal Cleanser - Review

I just started using Avon's Completely Clean Anti-Aging Thermal Cleanser. It is described on Avon's website as follows:

"Our first-ever self-heating nutrient-enriched cleanser helps wash away visible signs of aging. Cleanser micro beads smooth surface texture & remove dirt & oil.
• Instantly smoothes skin's surface and helps relax pores.
• In 2 weeks reduces the appearance of lines."

WOW. I love it so far. It is yet to be determined if it produces any real results after using it for a while.

The first time I used it, I did get a little shock. Of course, totally my fault. I was in the shower ready to cleanse, wetting my face. I got the cleanser put it on my hand with a little water and started to rub it on my face. Whoa! My face started getting hot and I started to freak out thinking I was having some kind of a reaction. After a few seconds the warmness started to cool and my face felt slightly tingly. Then I looked at the tube again. Duh, THERMAL cleanser! (Note: On the tube it says, it is not recommended to store product in the shower.)

After my shower, my skin felt really clean and rejuvenated! I've used this cleanser twice since then. I love the way it feels, even that suprising little jolt of warmth! I'm not sure yet if it has had any lasting effect on my skin, but I sure hope so!

Avon's Anew Clinical Advanced Retexturizing Peel

While the name is quite a mouthfull, using the product is much easier than saying it! You simply wipe the pads onto your skin and you are done.

I tried it for the first time last night and I swear I saw an immediate (although very slight) difference in my skin. One of my coworkers commented on my skin/cheeks today. Coincidence? I don't know, but I'm going to keep using it! I'll let you know how it works out!
