Before you start the procedure, you need to buy the mandatory tools that are included in the "liquid blade" complex, and prepare the tools. Also, as equipment for processing, you will need: acid cream with a brush in the set (it softens and exfoliates excess skin); nourishing cream that is used after the procedure - it removes dried skin on the legs.

A mandatory tool for such a manicure is warm water in a container that will serve as a foot bath. Don't forget clean towels, plastic wrap, gloves, and cotton pads. When the main tool and auxiliary devices are ready, manipulations can begin.

Fruit acid is not the most gentle remedy, so it must be applied to clean skin, where there are no cuts and wounds. Before the adjustment procedure, the feet must be immersed in warm water for 5 minutes to make the skin soft. After that, the feet should be wiped dry with light movements. Then put on medical gloves. Use a disinfectant to treat the heels, soles of the feet, and any areas of skin that you plan to treat. Fruit acid is applied only after disinfection.

If you did the preliminary manipulations correctly, then you can apply the gel. Collect a little substance on a cotton pad, and distribute it gently on the keratinized areas of the feet. After applying the gel, which contains acid, you need to wrap the areas with plastic wrap or cellophane tape. Leave the legs in this state for a while, depending on the treated area. It can be 1-2 minutes for the cuticle area, and 5-10 minutes for the keratinized heel area. If you feel discomfort, the film with the product should be removed immediately.

Further, the manicure tool can be removed along with the wrapper, while the gloves do not need to be removed. With light movements, carefully roll off the excess layer of skin using a pumice stone or a soft file. It is necessary to work with tools extremely carefully, and in one direction. After sufficient skin clotting, rinse the treated areas in water, and cover again using a disinfectant solution. Pedicure can be considered ready. In total, the procedure will take you no more than 20 minutes.

How to use at home?

The skin on the legs is treated with a liquid blade, regardless of its condition. It is very important that there are no damages and open wounds, as well as cracks on it. This procedure is also carried out in the salon, but it is very easy to do at home, for this you need to follow the instructions. Moreover, you can do chemical treatment with a liquid blade, which is available in the form of a liquid, or you can use special socks that are impregnated with active substances. So, first you need to decide how you are going to do such a pedicure, then you need to purchase all the necessary products, while it is better to choose one of the best brands in order for the product to be effective.


Some manufacturers offer liquid blades that come with nourishing cream and foot disinfectant, which should always be used during this procedure. Having prepared all these preparations, you can proceed to the treatment of the legs with this remedy at home. It is very important to act step by step, following the instructions.

First you need to make sure that there are no various damages and deep cracks on your legs.

Then you need to fill the basin with warm water and lower your legs into it for about 15-20 minutes so that the skin steams a little.


After that, you need to wipe them with a dry cloth or towel and you can proceed to processing. An important condition for using a liquid blade at home is that it can only be applied with gloves on, otherwise the sensitive skin on the hands may begin to peel off. First, you must treat the entire surface of the feet with a disinfectant. After that, with a cotton swab or a dense dry napkin, you can apply the gel composition of the liquid blade to the affected parts of the skin.

Having processed all the coarsened areas of the feet, you need to wrap the legs with plastic bags. This composition must be left on your feet for a certain time. Manufacturers usually indicate the exact time on the package, usually 10-15 minutes. After this time, the upper layers of the skin soften and exfoliate.


If you do not have special bags, you can use cling film. At the end of the time indicated on the package, you need to remove the bag or film and gently massage the hands to remove the softened tissues of the legs. You can also use a special pedicure file for this.


Then you need to move on to the next step - grinding the feet with a special grater. Moreover, all these tools must be used very carefully, because the skin of the legs will already peel off, it will only need to be removed. In this case, you need to move only in one direction, without making much effort. After that, the skin that was rough is exfoliated from fresh and healthy, and the feet become smooth and soft. After that, you need to rinse your feet with cold water and disinfect them with a special composition. Then you need to move on to moisturizing your feet. To do this, you need to apply a high-quality nourishing cream to the entire surface of the treated skin areas, and you can enjoy the soft and velvety skin of a knife.


But some women recommend using these funds differently. They add a liquid blade to a foot bath by diluting it in warm water. It is believed that this way the product acts more deeply on the skin, it is better steamed. After that, they dry the legs and re-apply the liquid blade to the skin wiped dry. Further, the procedure is similar to the first option, but it is believed that this method is more effective.


You can also choose a completely different version of a pedicure with a liquid blade. Now in some stores and on the Internet you can buy socks, they are treated with a special composition, which also includes acids.

The main element of this composition is lactic acid, which effectively affects the rough skin of the legs.

In addition, it can make the skin on the legs fresher and more elastic. Usually, this composition also includes many other components that are natural antiseptics; you can also find socks with healing and soothing plant extracts.


These socks are very easy and convenient to use at home. After purchasing them, you need to take a bath, steam your legs a little. After that, you need to unpack the miracle - socks and put them on your feet. They need to be tightly fixed on the legs, usually these socks have a drawstring. So the liquid composition with which the socks are soaked will not spill out. They are usually worn for 2 hours and then removed. After that, you need to rinse the legs with warm water. But it is believed that one such procedure cannot give you such a clear effect that a liquid gel blade is capable of. In order to notice the difference, you need to use such socks from five days to a week.

Well-groomed legs are not only a standard of beauty, but also an indicator of health and a positive attitude, and this is important for both women and men.

Components for a pedicure

It should be noted that the “liquid blade” is a complex set of drugs. The set includes:

  • softening cream or gel;
  • foot disinfectant;
  • foot nourisher.

The main component of the kit is a softening cream (it can be a gel or foam), this is actually a liquid pedicure blade. Often, a bottle comes with a brush for applying the drug and instructions for use.

The branded disinfectant can be replaced with any other disinfectant if desired. It is better to buy a skin nourisher from the same company as the liquid blade, or use a neutral nourishing cream, such as a cream for children.

In addition to the “liquid blade” itself, for the procedure at home, it is necessary to prepare:

  • gloves to protect the delicate skin of the hands;
  • a basin and warm water to wash off the remnants of the product;
  • cotton pads, with which the product is applied to the skin;
  • a special spatula or pumice stone for removing softened skin;
  • cellophane tape may be useful.

Before the procedure, ALWAYS do a test for an allergic reaction! Well-known companies Domix green and Gehwol deserve positive feedback, their preparations are hypoallergenic. They replace all possible chemicals with natural ingredients and oils and do not use fragrances. Urea is used as a softener in the products of these companies, talc and various essential oils are used as antibacterial components. However, it is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the body, because there are allergies to natural products.

To test the preparation, apply a little emollient to the skin of the leg. If burning, redness or swelling begins, then this drug is not suitable for you.

In this case, you should try to change the manufacturer or turn to the classic pedicure options.

Liquid blade application

Clean feet are thoroughly wiped with a disinfectant. A liquid pedicure blade is applied to dry skin of the legs with a cotton pad or brush.

The tool is not applied to damaged areas of the skin, you should avoid places where there are wounds or cracks, otherwise you can get severe irritation!

On very roughened areas with a thick layer of dead skin, a napkin with a product is applied and wrapped in cellophane. The time of action of the drug largely depends on the layer of keratinized skin, for the correction of a pedicure on the toes, 1-1.5 minutes is enough, and for the heels, the time can reach up to 8 minutes or more. After about 5-7 minutes, the softened skin layer is removed with soft rolling movements along with the remnants of the product, after which the feet are thoroughly washed with warm water without soap, wiped with a towel, lubricated with a nourishing cream and admire the result!

Well-groomed legs are the pride of any woman. Even if you wear closed shoes, a neat pedicure adds confidence.

Moreover, you can get rid of keratinized skin with their help not only painlessly, but also much faster than using the traditional method. One such tool is a liquid pedicure blade, which allows you to completely get rid of dead skin within half an hour.

There are many companies that produce a liquid pedicure blade designed to remove keratinized areas of the skin of the feet. Among them are the products of the Russian manufacturer Domix Green Professional, as well as the more expensive American manufacturer Callus Eliminator, whose product is considered one of the highest quality in the world and has collected a lot of positive feedback.

According to reviews, after using this product, the skin of the feet becomes soft, beautiful, calluses and corns disappear.

Acid pedicure refers to one of the varieties of the traditional method and is an unedged (European) manicure. It avoids lengthy trimming procedures, which involve treating the skin with scissors or tweezers, which can injure the feet or cuticles, causing serious disease or the problem of an ingrown toenail.

Acid pedicure is especially recommended for people who have dry and rough skin of the feet, cracked heels, ingrown nails, calluses, corns, excessive sweating.

Another advantage of the procedure is that the effect lasts for two to three months (depending on the individual characteristics of the organism). Thanks to this, a large bottle of liquid pedicure blade will last at least a year.

Proper procedure

Before you do an acid pedicure, you need to carefully study the instructions for the purchased product. In addition to the liquid blade, you must purchase:

  • disinfectant solution;
  • nourishing or regenerating cream;
  • cellophane gloves;
  • food film;
  • cotton wool.

Also for the procedure you will need a bowl for the feet with warm water and a towel: before doing an acid pedicure, you need to wash your feet. If the nails are covered with varnish, it must be removed: under the influence of acid, it will come off anyway. You also need to carefully examine the legs for wounds or abrasions, if any, the procedure should be postponed. If there is no damage to the skin, you can start doing an acid pedicure.

To begin with, lower your legs into a warm bath for five to ten minutes, if you wish, you can add herbal decoctions to it. When the time is up, dry the skin with a towel. Before you start doing an acid pedicure, you need to put on plastic gloves and treat your feet with an antibacterial agent, and then apply a liquid blade to the areas of skin that need treatment.

At the next stage, tightly wrap the feet with plastic wrap and keep the time indicated in the instructions. If only the cuticle is to be treated, only one minute is enough, but if you need to get rid of rough skin on the heels, it will take from five to fifteen minutes.

After the time has elapsed, putting on gloves again, remove the film, and then proceed to massaging the legs, rolling the treated skin so that it moves away from the feet, folding into a roll. You can use a pumice stone, but you need to move it only in one direction and be very careful. If you need to process the area between the fingers, you can use a non-metallic foot file.

At the final stage of the procedure, use a cotton pad to apply a disinfectant, removing any remaining skin. After getting rid of exfoliated skin, apply a nourishing or regenerating cream to the skin of the feet. This will help the skin to recover quickly after a rather aggressive procedure.

Exfoliating socks

Currently, a lot of products have appeared on the market that act by analogy with a liquid pedicure blade. For example, the so-called exfoliating socks, which are produced by Japanese, Chinese and Korean manufacturers, have collected good reviews about themselves. They are socks made of polyethylene, inside of which there is a gel to remove corns and corns.

They are considered a more expensive procedure: one pair costs almost as much as a bottle of liquid blade. This method is also inferior to the liquid blade in that it takes more time to process the feet: you need to wear socks from one and a half to two hours, and the first results are visible only on the fourth or fifth day, when the treated skin begins to peel off and move away over the next few days .

Therefore, women recommend doing the procedure with their help in winter, early spring or late autumn, when the feet are hidden from the eyes of others. Such a mask contains a lot of nutrients and absolutely does not require massage or the use of pumice stone and grinding files: during this period, exfoliated skin completely disappears on its own.
