Reboot • Exfoliating Foot Peel

A Foot-Care Reset That Works Over Time

The Barefoot Scientist Reboot Exfoliating Foot Peel is a one-treatment reset for built-up dry skin, rough soles and callused areas. Simply wear the treatment booties for 90 minutes, rinse thoroughly and allow the exfoliation process to develop gradually over the following days.

Barefoot Scientist Reboot – Gradual AHA Exfoliation for Feet

Each pack contains two single-use booties filled with a pre-measured exfoliating gel. Alpha-hydroxy acids, including lactic and glycolic acid, begin loosening built-up surface cells, while fruit extracts, aloe and glycerin complement the treatment.

After the 90-minute application, the booties are removed and the feet must be rinsed thoroughly. Peeling does not normally begin immediately. Most people notice exfoliation approximately three to seven days later, although the timing and amount of shedding vary from person to person.

The full process may take up to two weeks. Some feet peel in larger sections, while others experience lighter flaking and gradual smoothing. Skin should be allowed to shed naturally without pulling or picking.

Reboot is designed as an occasional treatment rather than part of a daily routine. Barefoot Scientist suggests using it every few months or when required, and never more frequently than once per month.

Choose a Quiet Week for This One

Reboot is not the treatment to use immediately before a barefoot performance, photoshoot, fitting or holiday. The shedding stage can remain visible for several days and may continue for up to two weeks. Plan ahead, let the skin release naturally and avoid pulling at loose areas, even when they look ready to come away.

What Customers Like

Customers reviewing Reboot frequently appreciate that the exfoliation feels more gradual than many dramatic foot peels, while still leaving the feet noticeably smoother. Several use it as a seasonal treatment rather than a regular weekly product. Results do vary, however, and some customers experience lighter flaking or a slower response instead of obvious peeling.

How to Use

1. Check that the feet are free from cuts, blisters, irritation or broken skin.
2. Wash the feet, soak them in warm water for approximately 10 minutes and dry thoroughly.
3. Cut carefully along the marked line at the top of each bootie.
4. Place one foot inside each bootie and secure it using the attached adhesive tape.
5. Move the feet gently inside the booties to distribute the treatment gel across the skin.
6. Leave the booties on for 90 minutes. Remain seated and take care on slippery floors.
7. Remove and discard the booties, then rinse the feet thoroughly and dry with a clean towel.
8. Allow peeling to develop naturally over the following days. Do not pull or pick at the skin.

Product Highlight

✨ One Treatment, Followed by a Gradual Reset

Reboot takes a slower approach to built-up dry skin. AHA treatment booties begin the exfoliation process during a 90-minute application, allowing older surface skin to shed gradually over the days that follow.

Dance World Tip

Use Reboot at least two weeks before an important performance, fitting or event. Avoid intensive foot files while peeling is active and wait until exfoliation has completely finished before returning to a smoothing tool. Once the process is over, High Dive cream can help maintain the softer finish.
