Soap & Glory Heel Genius Review


Hello and sorry I haven't posted in a while! I've been super busy with trying to sort my life out and figure out what I want to do now university is over so my blog kind of slipped down the pile..but I'm back! I thought I would review this Heel Genius by Soap & Glory as I have quite mixed feelings about it... 



All I've seen about this product is rave reviews - it has left people with such soft and moisturised feet but I don't know if it is just me but I just can't get along with this product.

Personally, I don't like the feeling of moisturiser on my feet. Yeah I know, it's good for my skin but I just don't like it. I had this bought for me and before just putting it to the side I thought I'd actually give it a try. My first finding was that it made my feet feel quite slimy which was horrible as it didn't seem to soak into my skin very fast.

Soap & Glory advises putting this on and then sleeping in cotton socks whilst it soaks in overnight. I cannot sleep in socks so this wouldn't work for me but going to bed with feet that are slipping around is also a no-go. I tried putting it on during the day and then wearing socks so I could take them off at night but I just didn't really see the benefits.

It may just be the way I am - I really don't like the feeling this product gives me but it may work much better for those with dry/flaky feet but it just isn't for me. I think that if I really need the extra moisture on my feet I may just stick to normal moisturiser rather than this. 

Have you tried this product? Any other products you would recommend that may change my mind?

  1. I didn't get on with the product that well personally either. I'm the same & cannot sleep in socks! x

  3. It worked for me but then I don't mind sleeping in socks - so that might be why. I think that the sleeping in socks thing is a bad idea on Soap&Glory's part because it's not a very appealing idea.

  4. I like to use Jojoba oil for dryness and flaky area on my heels. They can be a bit messy, but they work well, and they're natural! :)
