Be Sweet To Your Feet: Scholl's Product Review
{My mates at Scholl's Australia sent me some products to review- opinions are my own}
My best friend made up the game ‘whose feet
hurt the most?’ when we were sitting
curbside at the Melbourne Cup Carnival. From our vantage point all we could see
were girls hobbling and tottering around on heels, stilettos and all kinds of
uncomfortable footwear.
We laughed and laughed while we sipped
champagne and called out; “Hers do! No definitely hers! No way- her feet hurt the most!"
We weren’t making fun of their outfits or
criticizing their body shapes but it did have a tinge of wrongness attached to it. It felt as if like we were witnessing everything that is wrong
with equality. There were no men limping around in their shoes.
And look, I get it. It’s expensive to dress for the races from head to toe and something’s gotta give, we can’t all afford Jimmy Choos. But what if
there was an inexpensive measure you could take to ease the pain and prevent blisters at the same time?
I’m not speaking for the girls who walk around and look like they are going
to break an ankle (that's a lifestyle choice) but for those of us who try and look fashionable and
sensible but still have to bear breaking-in our pumps (and may have to deal with icky cracked heels,
and dry skin on feet.)
Scholls Australia
They have a line of products appropriately
called ‘Party Feet.’ My feet don’t party
often these days now that I have a daughter but when I do- I want to be as comfortable
as possible. Maybe that sounds old and cranky but it’s better than walking
around like Frankenstein. Hashtag- old enough to know better!
Here are a few they sent me to test out:
Gel Inserts- I asked for these
specifically. I’m an active person (most
of the time) and when I’m out, I am the opposite of a wall flower. I can’t wait to try these bad boys out because they look and feel like
velvet on the top side (so would be lovely to wear with or without tights) and have sturdy gel goodness on the bottom- extra cushioning on the pads of the
feet and heels where fellow champagne-infused dancers need it.
Heel Shields- I’m hoping these heel shields
will allow me to wear shoes that rub me the wrong way (tee hee I love puns.) These are going to be a staple in my purse
because you never know when you might need them- blisters be gone!
Fresh Step- I’m assuming you can spray this
deodorizer/ sanitizer in your party shoes before you go out but I have a
feeling this product will be the perfect thing to spray into my UGG’s which I
will don immediately upon returning home from any event. I already tried this
product out on my furry little buddies and though it smells a bit like a lemony
cleaning product (What can you expect? It’s for sweaty feet) it got the job done.
I can’t wait to get invited to something
fancy again so I can rock out with comfy tootsies. Babysitting anyone? Anyone?
