ProLinc Callus Eliminator, 18 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

I buy tons from Amazon and only leave reviews when the product is so good that I have to tell others. This product is AWESOME. I've had thick cracks and callus on my right heel forever. Apparently I stand on that foot more and so it is always terrible. The girls at the salon use this and a rasp on it, which helps a lot, but I just can't go often enough to keep it always nice, plus I think they're too cautious to get it all the way gone. I have a wicked pumice stone I use in the shower after everything else is done (longest time soaking possible) and have been using the Electric Callus Remover and Shaver by Naturalico - Best Rechargeable Pedicure Foot Care File Tool - Remove Dead, Hard, Cracked Skin and Reduce Calluses on Feet in Just Seconds - Spa Like Results when dry for some time, and it works really well for lesser calluses - even my husband likes using it, for the callus that forms under his wedding ring. It did great on my left heel and any smaller calluses on big toes etc. However, I just couldn't get real results on my right heel. The largest crack was better, but still there and gross looking. I can't even post the pictures, I'm too ashamed. I used this the day after it arrived. I bought the Microplane Pedicure Rasp File to accompany, which is a comfy size and gentle but effective. Soaked my feet in hot water for 5 minutes, then spread on the goop. I used the rasp itself to spread, like icing a cake (though this is a thin clear gel - it didn't drip through the rasp holes but would have if I'd waited long enough). I did have a towel under my foot for drips, and used a corner to wipe any non-callused skin I accidentally touched. I then waited 5 minutes, then started rasping. It didn't hurt, it didn't take long, and my heel is now NORMAL SKIN. The deep crack is completely gone. The few times I rasped a little to close to normal skin, I could feel it, but there wasn't any pain. It was actually a good guide, because when I felt parts of my callused heel starting to feel the same 'pain' as normal skin, I knew that part was done enough. I rinsed and ran to show my husband. Finally!! I immediately wanted to use this on every other possible callus, but am waiting a few days just to make sure I didn't go too hard. I'll admit that my heel is more sore than usual, but it's more that parts of my heel that weren't in use before are now feeling different pressures. It's definitely not too sore to walk on or even notice unless I think about it. This product is amazing and I wish I'd done this years ago. I'll buy more whenever I need to, though the bottle is huge and looks like it'll last for years. Now, if only I could learn to stand on both feet equally!

This is my go to cuticle and callous remover. I’ve used it for years and it seems to be the best price and worked the best.

Works great. I use it on my clients.

Dislike: I was really disappointed that the top wasn’t as pictured. It is just flat with a small hole, more like a bottle that would hold children’s medication or something. Like: This was very effective! A friend of mine told me she uses this in her salon when she gives professional pedicures and I thought I would try it. My feet were EXTREMELY dry and calloused from dance, the gym, and always going barefoot….so I went in with my colossal foot scraper first. I then applied this to the areas to area that were still really bad (I personally did not use gloves and it was totally fine- but I don’t have very sensitive skin. 🤷🏼‍♀️), let it sit for about 4-5 minutes, wiped excess product off with a clean towel, and filed. Then I gave them a good scrub to remove any left over product and finished with Kerosol. I was amazed by how much skin came off. Salon grade results for SURE! I’m bummed about the cap but I still have to leave a good review because this is so effective! I obviously moisturize between uses, and I haven’t noticed any negative side effects. I would avoid it if you only pay attention to your feet during application and don’t tend to them every day. You will need to make an effort to restore the moisture barrier after use.

It does remove the dead skin collecting at the heels, without removing any live skin. I took a nice long shower, then applied the Callus Eliminator and wrapped in plastic wrap for 4 minutes (so I could walk around), then washed off with soap. All the little sharp rough edges of dead skin were rubbed away with a pumice stone after that. However, I still have some areas of thick callus on my heels - apparently they are still somewhat "alive" i.e moist or attached, I don't know what - only the truly dry dead outer layer was removed. but that is a far cry better than any other instant method I've ever tried (from a spinning dremel grinder, to regular files, to microplane eggs). For me, the longer acting methods (foot creams, nightly urea spray, silicone foot/heel socks) did bubkus. The one longer acting method that did SOMETHING was Baby Foot - you soak in a booty for 3 hours, then 10 days later the outer few layers of skin peels off - this acted on both the dry layer that Callus took right off, as well as another layer or two of that heel callus deeper down. In contrast when I have filed that same area in a quick fix, that callus became tender and sometimes more prone to splitting than when it was left hard and thick (ouch!!!). In sum, there is no quick fix - this Callus Eliminator is probably the best while most gentle instant fix of just the top dry layer. for reaching further layers, you have to put in the time with Baby Foot, and allow for the week to 10 day period while the skin it affected grows out and then sloughs off - this never caused my heel callus to become painful. With all that said, that top dry layer was the most annoying because it was like little hooks that I could feel grabbing certain looped carpeting like little claws - or could feel scratchy of other feet/legs came into contact with it. I wish there was a really effective way to diminish the calluses faster and more permanently but it seems the only thing to do is constant maintenance - between Callus Eliminator for the scratchy outer layer and Baby Foot for the longer deeper slough, that's about the only two options I've found.

I always keep my feet nicely scrubbed and do it at home before getting a pedicure since the ladies at any pedicure salon these days don't want to spend the time scrubbing feet. Instead they seem to want to use the kitchen grater on everyone's feet. I don't feel that my feet are vegetables nor a piece of cheese that need to be grated - the thought of it makes me cringe. I didn't have the luxury of pre-scrubbing my feet while on vacation and I was pleasantly surprised when the men doing my pedicure brought out Prolinc Callus eliminator to put on my feet. I couldn't believe how quickly and easily the callus on my feet was removed. So I bought it and I've been using it at home ever since. And now I have the softest feet ever!

The product does work as advertised. After soaking, then drying feet, I applied the callus remover, left it on for 15 minutes. I then wiped the chemicals off my feet before I used a food file. Dead skin roll right off. The only issue I had is that it ruined my towels. The regular callus removal never did that, only this one with orange. It did not come out after washing. Sticking to the plain one going forward.

Okay so the instructions remind me of what you got in high school science class when the teachers were sure you knew how to blow up the lab....yet the caution is justified here. I carefully applied this to the bottoms only of pre soaked feet. After five minutes I scaped and washed my feet. You must get it all off or the chemicals will melt to your bones. Seriously- Carol Baskin probably just gave it to her husband as lotion. This process was simultaneously disgusting and satisfying. My barefoot quarantine scales were ceremoniously rinsed down the drain. It felt free, liberating like a YouTuber cutting her own hair or taking off a bra after a long day of work. That being said, my bra and scissors never threatened a chemical burn. Proceed with caution. If you embark on this journey you are sure to discover the ancient secrets of how nail salons are able to transform us with their magic. It now makes more sense why the workers do not have forearms like the Brawny man. If I wasn't equally as terrified as I am impressed my girl Wendy might have some competition when everything opens back up. Until then, I will enjoy using this to combat first world problems.
