Tony Moly Shiny Foot Super Peeling Liquid

Summer is approaching, so it was time to take care of my feet. The skin on my heels was especially hard and cracked. Las year I tried Etude House foot peeling mask, so this year I decided I would try this one from Tony Moly. As always when ordering Korean cosmetics, I ordered it from Jolse and it was 7,63 USD.

The product is described as a foot care program to make your feet feel smooth and sparkly shine.

The foot peeling liquid removes foot calluses from rough feet fast and conveniently, ingredients such as AHA and BHA help remove excessive foot calluses and peppermint extracts relieve stress from feet. Urea, argan oil and lavender keep feet feeling moisturized and pampered even after the foot calluses are removed.

How to use this product:

1. Put sheets on your feet
2. Keep both sheets on your feet and pour the liquid in, wait until your foot skin absorbs the liquid (it takes approximately 1 to 1,5 hours)
3. Take off your sheets and wash your feet until the peeling liquid is thoroughly rised away
4. In 4 to 6 days the dead cells will naturally start peeling off your feet. Do not try peeling them off forcefully You will have smooth and soft feet in about two weeks

So did it work? It does exactly as it says in the instructions. after 5 days the peeling started. And just like in the Etude House mas it first started peeling when the skin was not dry, the skin on my heels was last to peel off and the result there could be better. Maybe if I used these peeling liquids more frequently I could get rid of the hard skin on my heels. Who knows. And there is another thing, as I write this review one month after the application of the liquid I can see that the skin on my heels is almost as bad as before the application. So, the nice skin on my heels didn't last very long.

Before/After

But nonetheless I like this type of foot peelings because the process of the skin peeling off my feet is so fun, at least for me. I will definitely still buy peeling foot masks.

Have a great day!

The Custom of the Country follows the career of Undine Spragg, recently arrived in New York from the Midwest and determined to conquer high society. Glamorous, selfish, mercenary and manipulative, her principal assets are her striking beauty, her tenacity, and her father's money. With her sights set on an advantageous marriage, Undine pursues her schemes in a world of shifting values, where triumph is swiftly followed by disillusion. Wharton was recreating an environment she knew intimately, and Undine's education for social success is chronicled in meticulous detail. The novel superbly captures the world of post-Civil War America, as ruthless in its social ambitions as in its business and politics. 

Edith Wharton (January 24, 1862 – August 11, 1937) was an American novelist, short story writer, and designer. Wharton combined an insider's view of American aristocracy with a powerful prose style. Her novels and short stories realistically portrayed the lives and morals of the late nineteenth century, an era of decline and faded wealth. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature in 1921, the first woman to receive this honour. Despite not publishing her first novel until she was forty, Wharton became an extraordinarily productive writer. In addition to her fifteen novels, seven novellas, and eighty-five short stories, she published poetry, books on design, travel, literary and cultural criticism, and a memoir. 

The protagonist, Undine Spragg, is a young woman, a superficially beautiful woman who glitters and consumes and believes herself to be entitled to everything she takes from others, because it's not really taking, in her view, it's more like receiving what she deserves for simply existing. And for that reason, it was hard at times to finish the book. Undine is such a despicable character; her selfishness is hard to stand. She gets away with everything and nothing bad happens to her, the only ones that suffer are the ones around her. 

Nail polish is Essence, from the line Show Your Feet, with the name Flamingo rose. The colour is pink with small glitter that is almost invisible on the nails. The application is not the best, I don't know, the nail polish just doesn't look nice on the nails. 

Have a great day!

Libby Day was just seven years old when her older brother massacred her family while she hid in a cupboard. Her evidence helped put him away. Ever since then she has been drifting, surviving for over twenty years on the proceeds of the 'Libby Day fund'. But now the money is running out and Libby is desperate. When she is offered $500 to do a guest appearance, she feels she must accept. But this is no ordinary gathering. The Kill Club is a group of true-crime obsessives who share information on notorious murders, and they think her brother Ben is innocent. Libby must delve into her family's past to uncover the truth - no matter how painful. 

Dark places is the third novel by Gillian Flynn that I've read. And that makes it all of them which are translated into Slovene. Despite the various reviews I like her novels, they have just what I like in crime genre. Which one was the best out of three for me, hmmm, hard to say. Sharp Object was the shocking one for me, so it might stand out, but I liked all of them.

The nail polish is from Essence, discontinued, and would like to be duochrome, maybe you can see it, it tries to shift from brown to violet, but I would say that in the bottle it succeeds better. The name is Princess Prunella. Interesting colour nonetheless. 

Have a great day!
