I treat myself to home pedicures once or twice a week. I soak, scrub, file, and moisturize. I was out of foot scrub, so I picked up a tube of Olay Thermal Pedicure Foot Treatment on my last trip to Target. After using it, I'm happy enough with this product to say that I will definitely buy it again.
Olay describes the Thermal Pedicure Foot Treatment as a "self-heating, exfoliating scrub for soft, smooth, and soothed feet." It contains "Bora Bora white sand", micro-crystals, pumice, shea butter, an assortment of parabens, and other ingredients. I paid about $8 for my 4.9 ounce tube.
After I soak and file my feet, I apply Olay Thermal Pedicure Foot Treatment and really work it into the skin. There is a fair amount of exfoliating pumice and sand that does produce a decent scrubbing sensation. I'm a bit of a freak in that I really like super-strong scrubs, so this foot treatment left me wanting something more powerful but it is probably strong enough for most people. I did feel a warming sensation as I rubbed it across the soles of my feet but it wasn't much more than I'd produce with a different product and some good, old-fashioned friction. You rinse off this scrub after use and I was happy to see that it easily washed off without leaving chunks of pumice or a slimy layer of shea butter.
After use, my feet feel smoother, softer, and invigorated. I can't totally attribute the improvement to this stuff because I also use a few foot files and a cinnamon/clove foot lotion. Still, Olay Thermal Pedicure Foot Treatment is a great product and probably the best drug store foot scrub that I've ever used. I'll definitely buy it again.
