Soap and Glory Heel Genius

IMG_1147[1]

I’ve tried a multitude of different treatments for my feet ranging from store bought to DIY and so far nothing has worked half as well as this stuff.

I saw this on a Vintage or Tacky video where Cora talked about a few skincare items she’d bought from Soap and Glory so I thought I’d look into it, even though I assumed that I’d never buy it because most of the products I see American beauty vloggers use are so much more expensive here I just don’t want to spend the money. But I look them up anyway. I found this on the Mecca Cosmetica website. It isn’t available online but you can buy it from a bricks and mortar store. There is a Mecca Cosmetica store on Hay Street in Perth but the soap and glory brand is sold from the Myers on Murrey Street (right off Perth train station) why I couldn’t tell you but it is.

So if you manage to work that out you’ll pay around $13-14 for this product, a pretty decent price in my mind. You get 125ml in a tube and so far I’ve gotten around 5-6 uses out of it and I’ve still got plenty left. When I remember to use it my feet feel so much better and slowly over time the cracks in my heels have started to fill in. I often wear this when I’m sleeping or when I put my runners on though most of the time I just wear ballet flats or walk around barefoot because who can really be bothered with socks? Which may also explain the bad feet.

The packaging is pretty cool. Its easy to control how much is dispensed and the writing on it will give you a good chuckle so if you do happen to see it at some point anywhere have a read of the back, if you have a sense of humour you should get a laugh.

For good measure I’ve included a little picture for how to use the product (though it’s pretty self explanatory).

I would definitely recommend putting the socks on. I tried it without when I knew I’d be sitting down for a while with my feet up and it was good, the product soaked in quickly and I didn’t slide across the bathroom tiles or anything but when I followed the instructions (not something I usually do as a rule) it worked a million, yes a million, time better.

So now it’s time Pros and Cons!! (I hope you also heard that in a presenters voice).

Pros

  • Low cost
  • Softens up the feet really well when using socks
  • Not too greasy

Cons

  • Hard and confusing to find

3 pros to 1 con, I’d say this one is a winner. When it runs out I’ll be going back to Myers and buying some more and maybe even trying another Soap and Glory Product.
