Operating principle
For a pedicure, such a remedy works in several stages. At first it is well absorbed, softening the hardened epidermis, then separates it, and you can easily remove the skin that is already dead with a simple pumice stone. This method is also called acidic. He copes well with calluses, which are not one month old, calluses.

If we talk about the advantages of this method, then it does not take much time. Sometimes even old varnish is not washed if it still looks decent. This is a huge savings, but sometimes it is difficult to apply the product correctly, as some manufacturers did not provide a dispenser.
If the gel is purchased in a simple glass bottle, then you need to think about how to apply it to the surface of the skin. Do not be surprised if the product in the bottle does not have any smell, and when you use it, an unpleasant aroma appears.
And also do not forget about individual intolerance, because in rare cases, but still there is redness and itching, but most often, when the user has not read the instructions and kept the composition on the skin for longer than the prescribed time.
Instructions for use
If you read the instructions, it becomes clear that it is not difficult to use biogel so that there will be no problems in the future. The procedure time can vary from five to fifteen minutes.
Before applying, the bottle must be shaken, and the product itself is applied in a thin layer to dry skin. Leave for three minutes and immerse your feet in warm water to steam them. On average, it will take up to five minutes to keep the feet in water, after which the keratinized skin can be easily removed with a simple pumice stone, and the cuticle is removed with a bamboo stick.
At the end of the procedure, you should rinse your feet under running water, apply a moisturizer or balm. If you feel like it, you can use a special file on the heels, but with small abrasive inclusions. This is an additional peeling for the feet, but it is only necessary for severely coarse skin.
The procedure is carried out once a week, not more often, otherwise you can damage young skin and get unpleasant sensations in the form of tingling, increased sensitivity. If you follow the instructions, then the procedure can be easily carried out even by a non-professional and will achieve good results.
Contraindications
Indeed, there are contraindications to the procedure, and they cannot be neglected. The skin should not be damaged, since scratches and wounds will allow fruit acid to penetrate deep into the epidermis, which is more necessary, hence burning and pain will appear.
It is better to apply a small amount of the product on the skin as a test and see what the reaction will be. Any of their components can cause allergies, but this is an individual intolerance to the body, and you cannot get rid of it, you can only try to change the biogel.
