How to Wear ANY Shoes this Holiday Season... Painlessly!


I have a bit of a love hate relationship with heels. I have many gorgeous pairs and as much as I love how they look while on... I either end up avoiding wearing them, or switching to a pair of cozy flats by the end of the night, and I know I'm not alone on that.

So when I was approached by Sole Patches to test out their product, which claimed to take away all of the discomfort of wearing heels all day, I was definitely intrigued. Of course, I wouldn't recommend a product without testing it myself thoroughly, so I put these to the test, and here's what I found: 
So, first of all, what exactly are they? Sole Patches are little cushioning adhesive patches that you apply directly onto the balls or heels of your feet (or direction onto your shoes) in order to relieve that soreness you get from wearing heels for many hours. They also claim to have anti-moisture, anti-bacterial and anti-odour properties. 

What I Found: 
When I first saw these, I knew exactly which shoes I wanted to try them out on. I tested them thoroughly at 3 holiday parties and noted the following: 
  • They stick super well on your feet. They won't budge or peel off all night! 
  • My feet were still a bit sore by the end of the night, but significantly less sore than usual, and my feet were essentially good as new the next day. 
  • As they claimed, I didn't notice any issues with moisture or odour. 
The box comes with 6 patches, so I decided to use one of my pairs to stick directly onto my most uncomfortable pair of heels to use them as a permanent cushion (which I think is my favourite way to use them). Those shoes have now become infinitely more comfortable and I definitely won't be hesitating to wear them anymore! 

If you struggle with sore feet after wearing heels, I highly recommend trying these out. I'm definitely going to be purchasing another box myself! They are so convenient to have on hand (and they're really affordable too!) 

Heels definitely don't have to mean sore feet at the end of the night anymore!

Review: Lush Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo

Hello there! So I've been on the hunt for a shampoo to tame my wild hair for ages, so I picked up this during my recent Lush visit  in hopes that it would help with my thick, coarse, dry hair. According to Lush , this has: Stout to calm:  For all hair types but especially beneficial for fluffy, hard-to-manage hair. Friend to all scalps:  Yeast improves the health of the hair and scalp. For a polished finish:  Organic lemon juice is a gentle cleanser that adds masses of shine and gloss. After using this for a little while now, I can say that I'm pretty much still on the fence about it.  Pros:  Though my hair is still a little frizzy, its definitely a bit better than it used to be. My hair is also softer to the touch and shinier.  Cons: I've noticed my hair gets greasier a lot quicker since using this shampoo. I also feel as though it may be drying out my scalp, but it'll take a little more time to know for sure if its because of th...
