Analogs
Due to the increasing popularity of pedicure socks, many analogues of Korean, Chinese and Japanese production began to appear.
Among Japanese brands, which are also in no less demand, we can mention the Sosu brand. Japanese Sosu pedicure socks, sold in Russia, are also good because they have an official representative, so there is no doubt in the authenticity and quality of the product.
The advantages of pedicure socks "Soso"
Why spend time and double, or even triple amounts of money on almost the same procedures in the cabin? Japanese socks for pedicure are very convenient in terms of saving time, money and at the same time highly effective. Unlike other analogues, the Soso package contains two pairs of socks for two full procedures, that is, you can provide full care for your heels for six months ahead for only 900 rubles. Agree, this is a small amount for such a period of time.
Product Advantages:
- Profitability.
- High performance.
- Security.
- Ease of use that does not require special skills.
- Long-playing result.
Sosu Japanese pedicure socks, reviews of which are almost unanimous and positive, are presented in three versions with different aromas: lavender, mint and rose, but they have the same effect. Despite the presence of a flavoring component in the composition, judging by the reviews, the product has an odor resembling acid, but this does not affect its effect and the health of the consumer.
How to use them
The principle of their application does not differ from others:
- In order to put on plastic socks, you should first cut off the upper edge of each.
- The package includes special stickers for tightly securing plastic socks with peeling agent on the feet. By the way, the size of the products is rather big, so they will also be in size for men.
- After 1.5-2 hours, remove the bags and rinse thoroughly with warm water.
- A visible result will be achieved by the end of the first week.
Perhaps, for the first time using Japanese pedicure socks, you will find the reviews slightly exaggerated, because the process of exfoliating the skin will not seem the most pleasant, since the flaps of dry skin protruding in all directions will cling to the socks and everything that they touch, but it's worth it. After a week, the feet will take on a different look, the skin will become smooth, pink, without cracks, dry and rough patches, corns. To accelerate the process of exfoliation, you can arrange hot baths for the legs, but you do not need to rub or try to manually separate the skin, this can injure the feet.
Japanese pedicure socks: reviews about "Soso" - benefit or harm
Given the visible and significant effect of this product, we can inadvertently draw conclusions that its composition is solid chemistry, far from good for health. This is not true. Among the ingredients of the Japanese peeling agent, the main effect is on lactic acid, it accelerates the process of exfoliation of horn cells and, in addition, provides deep hydration. In addition to acid, the composition includes extracts of soapwort, common ruff, sage, and common ivy - they all carefully care for and protect the delicate skin of the feet during peeling, so the heels receive not only cleansing, but also the gentle care and protection granted by nature.
but on the other hand
Despite the many positive notes written about Japanese socks for pedicure, bad reviews can also be found. This can be explained by the fact that, alas, popular cosmetic products are often counterfeited, and a product purchased in an unfamiliar place or on an unofficial site can turn out to be a “dummy” at best, and at worst can cause significant harm to health. Another reason for complaints about pedicure socks may be an inattentive reading of the instructions, which subsequently can lead to an allergic reaction to the product or simply to its incorrect use, which will affect the final result. Be careful!
