My Feet! First Time No Blisters!

[disney's daughter]

EVERY single time I went to Disney...and did all that walking..I got blisters...no matter what I tried...I would bring five different pairs of shoes...shoes that I had worn forever...and I'd get blisters...I wore tennis shoes...my tevas....I'd put a bandage on every single toe BEFORE I went out in the morning...(This was AFTER I had already tried it without the bandages)...I tried spraying deoderant on my feet.....I would try double socks..one thin..one thick...or then "two" thins.....I'd get the blisters BETWEEN my toes.....My sister said she had never seen anything like it...People would say.."try this..try that"....Nothing worked....About the only relief I would have would when I wore my Tevas...then after a while I'd still get a blister...not as many..but, still...a blister or two...but..my hips (not enough support..I guess) would begin to hurt.....

Well..after reading here about the BODY GLIDE..I thought..."Why not...what can it possibly hurt? I have tried everything else.".....I purchased a bottle ( it looks like "roll on deoderant"....and rubbed it all over my entire feet...in between the toes, included)...and ended up wearing the same shoes every day..( Again..I had brought five pair with me).....but one..I wore my Tevas for one day....NO BLISTERS! I couldn't believe it....( I had also bought special socks, too).....I thought I would pass that along.....We are talking YEARS of getting blisters every time I would do some major walking.....Finally! RELIEF!

Body Glide is a fabulous product.

I leave in 8 days. I guess I need to go get some of this. Can u buy it anywhere?

I got mine at EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports) at the mall.

Most sporting goods stores carry it. At my store, it was with the "runners" supplies (I had to ask where it was).

It works well on feet and on thighs too! No chafing, no rubbing, no rash.

If you look down under Disney Tips farther, you will see a link to Bodyglide. I believe the title has Blisters on it.

It seems it will not allow me to paste the link in here since I am a newbie to this Message Board.

Good Luck and have fun.

It is soooo true - I always suffered from 'Disney feet' - and tried the moleskin, deodorant, etc . . . but this stuff is terrific! We are talking - NO blisters!

Thanks for the tip! I didn't get any blisters on our trip in my Teva's but it's good to have an added protection

I found Body Glide at drugstore.com.

I've seen the "stick" type, and checked www.bodyglide.com for a "roll on", but didn't see it. Where did you find the roll on? TIA.

The best stuff in the world is body glide. I had blisters the first day out 2 years in a row. It was awful! Last year I used body glide and had no blisters after 7 full days of touring! I got mine at drugstore.com.

I found the "roll on" Body Glide at a local athletic store here in Michigan. When I called another store twenty miles away to ask if they had Body Glide, the employee told me they had two different types...the cream and the roll on...The athletic store here..only had the roll on....which I really liked...When I "rolled" it on my feet and toes...I used my fingers to rub it in between my toes...THAT, for some reason, was where I got most of my blisters before...I made sure I put some on my heels, too...I was so happy with the results! All those blisters had really put a damper on my trips before....Now....I can hear that song from "Rocky" play in my mind when I start out for the parks....

I live in Michigan, which store did you get the "Roll-on" in? Would love to pick some up for my may trip!

 

[Kely]

I have searched online for the "roll on" and can't seem to find it in Bodyglide, did you get the Blistersheild Brand, which I did find in a roll on?

Pace Setters in Saginaw is where I got it. I had also called a store in Bay City..if that is closer...I had looked on line to see where the closest stores were to me that carried it.

I read this thread last week, and we are leaving in a month... I bought some due to my problems with warm spots on my heels when I where sneakers too long. I received it quickly from AMAZON!
I applied it to my skin in the area where a new bra is cutting in on my skin (sorry fellas) and I didn't have a red raw spot that night like I had the previous 2 nights. It worked for me very well!!

Thank you so much. I have always had problems with my feet at any park where I walk all day. Like the OP, I've tried everything. I just ordered a small one from Amazon. We're going on a cruise then Universal in a couple of months and I can't wait to try it.
