Shoe–and Foot–Salvation: Foot Petals!
Ever wonder how celebs wear those stiletto heels all night without dying? How can they manage 3-5 inch heels and still walk that night or the next day?
Stylist secret is just two words: Foot Petals!!
Foot Petals are inserts/cushions for your sexy shoes that protect your feet/toes from blisters and help cushion your feet and make wearing strappy sexy shoes more comfortable.
Tip Toes is the one I use the most simply because I hate sliding shoes. This scalloped pad stops feet from sliding forward thus eliminating toe crunch or "scrunch" in pumps and toe overhang in sandals . Almost invisible, it won’t show in open toe shoes ( unless you take them off). By cushioning the ball of the foot, it prevents calluses and helps protect your tender feet. It works on bare feet or with hosiery which is key since you tend to slip more with hosiery. Don’t forget since this is a more
embellished season, you will be wearing tights, so you need these babies. Available in a variety of colors and even shapes (hearts), you can be fashionable even with your foot petals!
Heavenly Heelz keeps your heels from slipping out of shoes. (and yes this happens to me as I have a narrow heel and typically in conjunction with my foot sliding foward. So I use both inserts!) You can cushion new shoes from cutting your heels and it will prevent blisters from slowing you down. This very cool insert is perfect for mules or slides to prevent you from blistering on top of your foot too as you slide down in the shoes. It also will help with size adjustment when a shoe is a fraction large but the next size down is too small. (the things we do for shoes!!)
Strappy Strips are heaven sent stips to cushion your feet from abusive but sexy shoes. These thing strips will make your fave sandals and slingbacks more comfortable. These tiny thin strips prevent straps from rubbing and causing blisters as well as cutting into toes. Practically invisible when worn (place them carefully), you can even use these babies on thongs to prevent blisters when you wear them –and here in LA, you always wear thongs!
Look carefullly at this black shoe and you will see the Strappy Strips and the Killer Kushionz.
Killer Kushionz are probably the next best thing to a foot rub! These full insole cushions can be worn with open toe shoes and sandals with no one the wiser. Your feet will thank you for these sole-ful cushions that will cushion every step you take! These insoles combine the comfort of the Tip Toes with a full arch and heel support so that you can go all night long!
Sole Stopperz are perfect for any time you are wearing new shoes or anticipating wet surfaces (aka rain, snow etc). These petal shaped disks will give you traction and prevent slipping on wet or slick surfaces. No more worries about sliding down the stairs or slipping on slick floors or pavement!
Foot Petals has gift sets and since we are heading into that last half of the year, it’s worth thinking ahead! For those who are going "bridal", you would want a set for bridesmaids and the bride. Each silver organza pouch contains a pair of Tip Toes and Heavenly Heelz in silver rose.
Fancy Feet gift bag is a black organza pouch that contains 2 pairs of Tip Toes and 2 Heavenly Heelz in black iris and butter cup. So you can mix and match with your shoes and get at least 2 pairs of shoes "petaled" for your comfort. This gift bag also includes an orchid toe ring too!
Heart ‘n Sole gift set offers you the comfort of Foot Petals plus the bonus of donating to the fight against breast cancer. In conjunction with actress Niecy Nash whose story, " Using Laughter to FIght Breast Cancer" is online at the Foot Petals site, a portion of all sales of this gift set will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation–LA affiliate. This cool pink organza pouch includes a pair of the heart shaped Tip Toes and a pair of Heavenly Heelz in rose, one Aware Ribbon toe ring and one Breast Health Pamphelt from the Susan G. Komen Foundation (in English/Spanish). This set is available online at Footpetals.com and also at Bloomingdales stores.
