2 things: 1, pads 2, creme application

I hope this will help you all!

1, Yes, the pads are probably the weakest piece of this whole system... I used mine one time, I washed the cream off, and left it dry. As soon as it dried, the pad pretty much just fell off the head,,, Well, I started thinking, what can I do about this? The best idea I had was to use 2 sided transparent tape, the kind you can buy in scrapbook stores, but I see them in gocery stores sometimes too. Also, anything like Walmart would have it. So I would just stick a few pieves of tape on the plastic head, it is okay if it does not fit 100%. Then put the used pad on and just apply pressure to make sure it sticks to the tape okay. It works!

2, My other problem was that when I applied the cream to the applicator pad as they say in the booklet, the cream would fell off my face in smaller and bigger pieces, it would not stay on my face until it could have actually made a difference. You know, those crystals only work, if they stay on up to a certain amount of time, so you have time to massage them into the skin, and really rub some old skin off... So here is my solution: Water! I just add water to my skin once the creme touched it. Whenever I see that the round pad is making little creme "balls" I know my skin is too dry. So I just leave the water running a tiny bit, just enough so that I can get a drop of water and quickly splash it on my face, and remix the creme. This way I used less cream, and I got better results as well!

It is the same with the foot creme as well. It is absolutely amazing! I did not use th applicator with that, just massaged the cream all over my foot. The result after 1 treatment is totally amazing... Very soft sole, less hardened areas. Once again do not forget to add some water to the cream while doing the treatment, it does make a big difference in the effectiveness of this product.

Getting Pads to Stick

Try cleaning the surface you stick the pad to with rubbing alcohol before applying the pad. Pads may not stick if there's even a slight trace of soap/oil that makes the adhesive fail.

Good Luck!
