Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: Compeed Blister Plasters

Ah, summer. How do we love thee…?

Except our feet don’t. The first time we wear sandals or trainers sans socks or tights, they invariably rub. Ouch.

Since we’ve always maintained that happy feet make a happy women, Compeed Blister Plasters qualify not only as a medicine cupboard standby but a positive beauty product. Just listen to Sarah…

‘I never ever go anywhere without a pack of Compeed blister plasters in my bag.

On of the first hot day some years ago, I ventured out about in London in sandals with bare feet. By the time I'd walked 10 minutes to an appointment, my heels were giving me such grief I had to flop into a taxi. The blisters were sooo painful that on the way back – in another cab (this was getting expensive!) – I stopped at Boots in New Oxford Street, threw off my shoes and made for the nearest chair.

An assistant who deserved sainthood declared the only solution was Compeed plasters and put them on herself. Result! I could walk again and the blisters heeled quickly. Now, at the beginning of summer, when my bare skin is getting used to being in contact with shoes or sandals, I administer the Compeed plasters first…’

‘Nuff said.
