Scholl Foot Products Review and Giveaway

I never used to pay too much attention to foot care when I was younger and easily managed to wear ridiculously high heels, strappy sandals etc, but now I notice the aches and pain more now along with dry skin on feet especially around the heels.  A range that you can always rely on for great quality footcare is Scholl and I was please to try out some of their products below.

SchollScholl Fresh Step Spray is a simple to use spray that you use in your shoes to eliminate odour.  You can use the spray before or after wear, just let the spray dry first before wearing and it should keep them odour free for 24 hours.  I find this great to spray in shoes at the end of the day to freshen them up ready for the next time you wear them.  I tend to use this more in trainers, especially after a trip to the gym!

Scholl Dry Skin Instant Recovery Cream is just what I need for my feet.  It pushes moisture deep into the skin to really hydrate them and leave them soft and smoother.  I find that although it’s rich it really sinks into the skin and used daily, you soon notice much softer skin all over.  It also has a pleasant gentle fragrance which leaves the feet fresh.

Scholl Party Feet are a girls best friend for high heels.  Even though I don’t wear high heels as often as I used to, I do have some heeled boots which these are perfect in as the balls of my feet tend to get a bit sore by the end of the day.  I also find these usefull for weddings and functions where you can be standing around chatting.  These are a new slimmer version but still do the job.  I find it useful to have several pairs and keep them in the shoes you wear most often.

Looking after your feet in high heels

I’ve lived day in, day out in high heels for most of my adult years until I was pregnant seven years ago and my mum bought me my first pair of flats!  So I have been through, and suffered all sorts of aches, pains and blisters that heels can bring.  I remember tottering about on evenings out in 4 inch strappy heels, spent three days wandering the streets of New York in stiletto heeled boots and venturing the 30 minute walk to work in denim strappy mules one summer!

These days, I’m a little more sensible and wear slightly lower heels and resort to flip flops in the summer but I do have a couple of pairs of evening shoes and some high boots that I like to wear every so often that do leave the balls of my feet a little sore after wear.  So I was pleased when Premier Healthcare sent me a few treats to help look after my feet.

premier feetThe Gel Metatarsal Pad immediately caught my eye as it reminded me of the gel pads I used to put in my shoes some years ago, but they always slid around.  With this one having a ring to go over your toe, I was eager to try them out but was a little apprehensive as to how it would feel having something around your toe all day.

premier feet 2With a lunch out last week, I decided to wear my high heeled boots that always leave me with aching on the balls of my feet afterwards.  So before I put them on I slipped these gel pads over my toe and into my sock.  I could initially feel the bit around my toe but to be honest as I started walking around and get on with my day I almost forgot they were there.  What I can definitely say though is that the soles of my feet felt normal at the end of the day when I took my boots off!  No aching or soreness, so these definitely work.

premier feet 3Whether your feet are aching or not, the PediRoller is a lovely treat in the evening, perfect for when you are sitting on the sofa, watching a bit of tv.  It’s designed to help relieve heel and arch pain, but it gives the whole of the sole of your foot a lovely, relaxing massage by rolling your foot backwards and forwards across the contours of the roller.  It gives you a lovely tingly feeling and takes away any tiredness and tension in your feet.

premier feet 4The CCS Foot Care Cream is a Swedish formula foot cream designed to manage and help prevent dry and rough skin.  It can be used twice daily and a good idea is to apply at night and wear some cotton socks to bed to give your feet a real treat.  They should be feeling super soft by the morning.  My feet are always crying out for a moisturising cream as they get very dry and I suffered from a nasty crack last year.  It’s a good time of year to get started with getting rid of dry, dead skin so that your feet will look lovely for the summer.  I found this cream to be rich and moisturising, it did absorb well and had a thick, creamy texture that is needed for tough skin on feet.  I try to use this each night and definitely have softer feet than I did a couple of weeks ago so will continue to use this to keep my feet in tip top condition.
