This Korean Foot Peel Takes Your Feet From Scary To Super Soft

When I read about the foot peel trend from Seoul, Korea, I busted out a jig, which sounded more like a tap dance thanks to my calluses clip-clapping on the floor. I had to try it, so I grabbed a box of Miracle Peeling Foot. I placed my clean feet in the supplied plastic slippers filled with clear lactic and glycolic acid gel for 90 minutes, and a day later, my skin began to shed like a snake’s. (Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt. But don’t pick at it. Let it peel naturally.) My feet looked terrifying for about five days, and still peeled a little into the second week, so I kept my toes to myself until the transformation was complete. I still have some rough spots on my heels, but in general, my feet are dramatically softer.
