Dr. Scholl's for Her High Heel Insoles BzzAgent Review

I was invited to participate in a Dr. Scholl's for Her High Heel Insoles BzzAgent campaign. BzzAgent is a really cool product campaign site where you get to try products for free and they give you free coupons to give to friends. For the Dr. Scholl's campaign I was given a free set of high heel insoles to try out and a large stack of coupons for the insoles.

I don't wear high heels very much anymore. But special occasions like Christmas parties and weddings sometimes lure me back in to the torture of heels. These insoles work for heels 2" and up. They are clear gel insoles with a sticky bottom that you place inside your shoe. The packaging advertises that the soft gel arch will shift pressure off the ball of your foot. The FabuSTEP gel is intended to add extra cushioning. Supposedly they are practically invisible, even in strappy heels.

I brought out a pair of my highest, most revealing high heels this morning and gave them a test run. They were easy to apply to the shoes and did not harm the shoe at all when I took them out. I don't know how long the sticky part will last but it would be nice if you could switch these between different shoes on a regular basis. The insole was clear and I couldn't tell I was wearing it all once I put on the shoes. That's a definite plus! I felt like the insole was comfortable except for the arch. It may be because I have sensitive arches but I found them uncomfortable to walk on. It's possible as the day goes on it would become less noticeable. The intention of the insole is mostly to lessen the pressure on the balls of your feet and I do feel it did that. Of course the insole does not address other painful symptoms of high heel wearing, such as knee, hip, and back pain. I don't feel these insoles would entice me to wear high heels more often but I could see how they would make them easier to wear when it was a special occasion.

If you'd like to give them a try I've got a bunch of $4 off coupons that don't expire until the end of the year. If you're interested, comment below or through Facebook messaging and I'll send you one!
