Wore these booties pain free today thanks to Band-Aid's Friction Block Stick!

The BEST blister preventer EVER! A necessity for the cute shoe lover!
Friction. I deal with it in more ways than one.

As a lover of cute shoes, I chose these very booties to walk miles in New York, rather than flats or something practical. Dumb. I ended up spending a total of $30.00 on Band-Aids. I tried every type, I even tried layering them but they still ended up rubbing off. The blisters were exposed causing MUCH pain! How great it would have been if I would have known about this magical product beforehand! Just rub a little friction block stick on areas where shoe may rub, and walk miles....blister free, pain free.

As a woman, I experience friction in my life. Hurts, pain, resentments, reminders. I try so hard not to let this friction get to me, but at times I spend hours obsessing, and hurting. I forget that God is the ultimate friction blocker. If I don't take my hurt to Him first and immediately, it stays with me just like the blisters. As silly as it may seem, right now He is reminding me through this Band-Aid Friction Block Stick that if I go to Him first, instead of obsessing, I can avoid a lot of unnecessary pain. Personally, I think we could all use a little protection from the friction of life! Have a great day!
