Carnation Footcare Corn Caps x 10, all-in-one, Salicylic Acid paste with soft felt corn ring. Relieves pressure and pain. One step application.

I rarely leave reviews, but this product really deserves one. I had a stubborn corn on the bottom of my foot for about 7 years. It didn’t hurt, so I ignored it, but once it got larger and ugly I decided to try these pads. They stayed on well, even with walking and showering. After a few applications the corn started to lift and the skin reacted to the treatment. By day 8 the surrounding skin began to peel, and a couple of days later I was able to remove the corn easily with zero pain. Now there’s just a small dry patch healing. I honestly didn’t think these would work on such an old corn, but they were simple, painless, and totally worth it!

Applied it to my foot, worked so well all the skin literally died. Mum used to swear by these. You don't suffer pain, it goes numb the area around the corn. When the plaster fell off the corn was in the plaster looking at me. Absolute value for money, but it worked so well, that all the skin around the corn was dead. Don't pull it, gently massage or use a buffer or something, just be careful. Yes its a little sticky but it stays on the corn. Its easy to apply.

Does do the ‘job’ but inside the toys doesn’t work.

I don’t usually review but I feel like this is one product that needs it. I’d had a corn on the bottom of my foot for about 7 years, I’d just ignore it as it didn’t bother me but when it became bigger and more unsightly I thought I’d better do something about it! The plasters stuck well through day to day life, walking and showering. I used as instructed, changing the plaster every couple of days. Even after the first plaster I noticed the corn looked more raised and the redness from the salicylic acid was stuck to it. On around day 8 I noticed the skin to one side of the corn had started to peel, only slightly so I carried on with the last plaster. After day 10 the skin had started to heal slightly more, though not enough for me to be brave enough to pull it off! A couple of days later the corn had started to peel more and was beginning to irritate me so I braved peeling it off. Thankfully there was no pain at all and it came away easily! All I’m left with now is a small patch of what looks like dry skin which I’m sure will heal soon. I didn’t hold out much hope for the plasters working on a corn I’d had for so long, but they worked brilliantly! Pain free and effective, more than worth the money!

These adhere really well, just like a good plaster, and they stay on. They are quick and really easy to apply, unlike some with frustrating packaging and poor adhesion. Seem to be doing the job.

(Sorry for the disgusting photos - but I personally wish someone would have shown me this before I went on to try these.) The white area in the photos is dead skin, caused by the salicylic acid. So, I had a small corn on my finger. It did not cause a lot of problems but I didn't like it there, so thought I could try the corn plasters for it. Shortly, I now have no corn on my finger so they worked - but to be fair I probably wouldn't do this again (hence the 3 stars). The first photo is taken on 12th July (after I stopped using the plasters), the last one was taken today - 27th July. I used them as advise, for probably only about 3 days as I started getting concerned about the surrounding skin. It was then a slow, PAINFUL recovery. In the end, the red middle BIT (see photo 3) of the corn 'grew out' and was very painful. After using the corn plasters, I covered the damaged skin with a normal plaster to stop it getting infected. One time then, the plaster came off whilst in the shower and I somehow accidentally flicked off the middle part of the corn - it hurt like hell (obviously) and was bleeding slightly. (Photo 4) I cleaned it properly and it luckily healed nicely within a couple of days. Slowly the surrounding white dead skin started peeling off itself too. I then used Sudocrem and Nivea Creme to keep it moisturised. So as you can see now, the skin has healed (although slightly red compared to the rest of the finger) and there is no corn, which is good. But personally I would go to see my GP next time, to treat it properly. There are massive risks when it comes to using these plasters and it has been a painful recovery (I was almost ready to go to A&E at one point 😄). So please be careful when using these - and definitely don't use them for too long!

Good to have a pack of these to deal with corns on the feet, they work very well

These corn caps are high quality and very easy to use. The felt ring provides instant pain relief by cushioning the area, and the medicated center is highly effective at loosening the corn. It’s a relatively cheap and painless way to deal with foot discomfort at home. Having 10 in a pack is great for ensuring you can complete the full treatment cycle. Highly recommended for anyone suffering from painful corns!
