Olay Thermal Pedicure

Before launching into a product review, lets talk about this whole thermal business. I just want to say that I am tired of hearing "oh it's just some mineral that heats up, what's the big deal?". To be quite honest, I really don't care why the product is heating up - I like it! I've tried a few of these products and the heat lasts for maybe a minute and then goes away, but for the minute that the heat feels nice, especially if you're using the product in the winter.

Now lets talk about Olay's Thermal Pedicure. This is one of those products that heats up when you first put it on. It has LOTS of scrubby bits in it - ground up pieces of pumice that are actually quite jagged so they do scrub your feet very well. I would never ever use this scrub on my face, but I loved using this on my body. Turn off the shower (to conserve water, of course) and scrub down with this for buttery soft skin. There's also Shea butter in it so moisturizing afterwards is optional, but more importantly your feet get that extra hydration they might need.

The warming for this product really added an extra dimension to the experience. When I used the Thermal Pedicure on my feet, they felt to relieved and soothed. I walk a great deal and also work out several times a week, so my feet get very tired and it was nice to pamper them a little bit. I love this scrub.
