Advantages: basic packaging & easy to use
Disadvantages: some of the products don't smell too good
To be honest I think it's my feet that let me down - I look at them sometimes & they don't look like they belong to me. Although I look after the rest of myself my feet get neglected & it isn't until they 'complain' that I actually sort the mout & give them a good old pampering.
Our 'Avon Lady' retired last year so I haven't felt the need to order from her catalogue & not being ecstatic over any of the Avon products I'd bought over the years I didn't bother to look online.
However, talk about 'being in the right place at the right time' - I was lucky enough to be browsing in one of our many charity shops when an assistant brought down a large number of brand new Footworks products for 60p each! Well, I just had to buy as many as I could carry didn't I?
The first thing I tried were the pads which did a grand job of exfoliating my feet making them feel soft & smooth giving me an 'even suface' to work on. They were easy to use & the tub contained plenty of round pads (rather like small make-up remover pads only perforated).
The next product I used was the 100ml tube of foot mask which I left on longer than the required time as I wanted it to go extra hard & hopefully penetrate a couple of extra layers of skin. This worked a treat & wasn't difficult to rinse off although I wasn't overly keen on the smell.
I then used the Citrus Mint Cooling Foot Lotion in a 100ml tube - once again I wasn't keen on the smell (strong cheap suntan lotion?) but my feet felt very refreshed & the cooling sensation lasted quite some time & there wasn't a greasy residue which you sometimes get from other products.
I've also used the foot cream for cracked heels & the white Footworks foot cream with good results.
I can't complain considering how little I paid but I'm not sure I'd be willing to part with over £3 per item? Although my feet do look & feel a great deal better, are less dry & feel happier, I have found better products with a much nicer smell & giving longer-lasting results. I'd recommend trying though if you see them on offer?
Summary: worth a try especially if you find it on offer, but not the best range around

- 10/08/09 I'm guilty of neglecting my feet especially during the winter months, It's only when the warm thick socks come off in the summer that I tend to give them any TLC :-) |
