A shoe fanatic is proud she can now wear her favorite pumps without pain, thanks to an affordable drugstore purchase.
Get ready to do a little happy dance now that you can slip into your most uncomfortable dancing shoes without any discomfort.
Lizette Belen, photo researcher for The US Sun, shared how she no longer values the comfort of her feet over fashion: now she can have both.
All you needed was some foot-saving magic in an affordable drugstore bottle.
She swore by the Walgreens Brand Pain Relieving Dry Spray and Lidocaine because she could walk anywhere in the city without having to worry about sore soles.
Beauty doesn’t have to mean pain with this non-greasy and unscented find that retails for just $10.99 at the drugstore giant.
“Works fantastic and makes you forget you have feet!” she told The US Sun.
“This allowed me to stand all night, even with my shoes still unbroken in,” she added.
SPRAY THE PAIN AWAY
This has now become a permanent part of her beauty supply, but Belen will not be leaving this product behind for the time being.
She may have had surgery on her foot a year ago, but now that she’s discovered the spray, she can still show off her shoe collection.
“My foot is completely healed, but the areas where the scars are are still a little tender,” she said.
“I spray this topical lidocaine on the top and bottom of my foot before wearing heels, and within minutes I feel immediate relief,” she added.
“It numbs my whole foot.”
THE REAL HACK-SAVING DEAL
At first she wasn’t sure if it would really help her, or if it was just advertising.
“I saw a video about the product on Instagram a few years ago, but I’m only just now starting to use it,” she said.
Since she doesn’t often carry her favorite shoes – any shoes at all – with her, she decided to give it a try.
“I’ve been known to wear heels on nights out, to the office, to brunch. Most of my shoes have some sort of heel,” she said.
“Whether it’s a kitten heel, a mule, a high platform or a wedge, I wear them,” she added.
SHOES, SHOES, SHOES
For her, foot pain is now a thing of the past.
“I love wearing my black two-strap mules, both to work and going out, but the straps press on my scar. I spray a little on and get instant pain relief,” she said.
There is now no type of heel she can’t handle.
“Another pair that I love to wear and get a lot of compliments on are my white and black Tory Burch heels,” she said.
“They are a little tight at the top because they haven’t really been broken in yet. But every time I wear them and use the product, I don’t feel that tight feeling anymore,” she added.
Since she started using the spray a few months ago, she can’t help but praise its pain-relieving effects to everyone she knows.
And she never leaves home without it.
“I actually always take the spray with me for touch-ups. I’ve never had to touch it up, but I usually have it with me when I go out for the night,” she said.
“If you go out for a night, you might not feel your feet, but be warned: you might feel them the next day,” she added.
Now a simple spray is all it takes to always look “so cute in those heels!”
