"Boots Pharmaceuticals Anti Blister Stick instantly protects your feet from friction and chafing."-Online product description
Blisters.. They just ruin a night out, right? Having an amazing night dancing your feet off and next thing you know you're struggling to walk to find a seat because those new shoes have torn your poor feet apart!! I used to experience exactly that every time I would go out. I especially hate it when I have shoes that stain easily. Not only are my feet in agony but my brand new shoes are stained red. Awful!!I have tried all the plasters and they either fall off or they just don't work at all. Plus, you don't want some ugly plaster showing on your foot all night, right? I needed to find something and I needed it fast!
On one of my little outings to my local Boots I came across this little beauty. I know it looks like nothing and when I first picked it up I thought I was in for disappointment once again, but never the less I picked it up to give it a try.
I have used this little stick of magic since the start of summer 2012 and I have never looked back. IT'S FLAWLESS! I just don't understand how some stick of a waxy substance can stop that awful rubbing that used to always ruin my night.
I rub the stick on the areas that rub in the shoes I am going to be wearing or where I usually get blisters. I then put my shoes and head straight to the dance floor without the slightest worry that I am going to be in agony in the next 10 minutes!! It's bloody amazing!! Just to be safe I either chuck it in one of my friends handbags or I pop it in my pocket just in case I need to re-apply sometime during the night. Just to be safe I nearly always end up re-applying it when I am sitting down or running to the toilet.
Since I have been using it I haven't had a blister since!! Fabulous!! This is just one of those products that puts a smile on my face!!
The only little problem I have is with the packaging. Now this might just be with the one I purchased but I am going to mention it anyways. The little thing that pushes the wax out has broken and I haven't used it that much, so it's a struggle to get it out to use. Actually gutted!! I have tried other brands (Compeed, Dr Scholl's etc) and I have never had this problem before, so I am assuming I just had the unlucky pick. But, if you don't want to risk it I would recommend picking up another brand just in case this is a common problem with the Boots own make anti-blister stick.
I have also had a little look around online and I am not the only one who thinks this product is the bees knees! I have seen many reviews on several websites saying that this is a must have product!
Honestly, if you are one of those poor people who get blisters all the time and you're still looking for a solution I would highly recommend this. Once you've got it I can guarantee you won't look back and it will be added to your 'Can't live without' list.
Thanks for reading guys! I know this will be your foots knight in shining armor!
Best wishes,
