Hello lovelies,

 

Some time ago I was approached by Pamela from Pedi-Sox if I'd like to review her unique product - Pedi-Sox on my blog and give away few pairs. Then I've realised I've never done a single post aimed at feet. I don't like to show my feet and this is probably the only post I ever will do but I still wanted to do this review because it's a great product. You can currently win a pair for yourself in my giveaway.

There are several types of Pedi-Sox like Original, Pro, Ultra, Lite and Spa Deluxe. I got the Pro and Spa Deluxe and the main difference is the material. Pro consists of acrylic, nylon and elastic and the Spa Deluxe of 70% cotton and 30% acrylic. The Spa Deluxe socks feel softer so I would recommend to pay the extra $1 and get the Spa ones or the Original ones that are cotton blend as well. The only disadvantage is that the Spa Deluxe socks come in white colour only.

 

I've tested them few times already and I really appreciate the idea and thought that went into this product. I used to hate painting my nails in the cold months because my feet are constantly freezing and now I have Pedi-Sox :) If you want to special treat your feet you can put a foot cream on first and then the Pedi-Sox and you can even leave them on overnight and it is then like an overnight foot mask if you get my drift.

 

I've been using a black pair of Pro Pedi-Sox which felt quite tight; just to give you an idea, my feet are UK 5 size. I would however check out other types as some are stretchier (Spa Deluxe felt easier to stretch). Overall, I think it's a great beauty accessory and since receiving them, Pedi-Sox is a necessity in my pedicure routine.

 

Pedi-Sox are available at http://originalpedisox.com/ (US) and at various distributors throughout US and internationally and at www.pedisox.co.uk (UK)

Hello lovelies,

 

Hope you've had a great weekend! I've been busy swatching and taking a new video tutorial that will hopefully be up during February. I've already shared sneak peek on my Instagram account ;)

 

Today I have opted for a textured leopard print manicure in warm tropical colours...

I have used SpaRitual Wilderness (reviewed here) as a base colour. Then I've used Zoya Miranda and Solange to paint irregular patches. Once I was happy with the mix of colours, I've used dotting tool and black Zoya Dahlia and painted leopard print.

 

The midi rings I'm wearing are again from an Etsy seller DellyDumpling (UK) which I've purchased.

 

Hope you've liked the look and will come back tomorrow ;) Lucie x
