Old version of PreHeels XL is No Longer Sold - Please See New and Improved Version of PreHeels+ now available from Barefoot Scientist

I have mixed feelings about this product. It definitely works as described, and I will continue to use it because it is the best on the market. However, it doesn't come off easily. I find myself scrubbing my toes and ankles to get this off the next day, to the point where it causes the irritation that I was trying to avoid in the first place. If you wear this for a night out, plan on not wearing sandals the next day. Because of the silicone, it makes it look like your toes are wrinkly until it sloughs off after a few days. One tip for new users - make sure this product is completely removed before you shave!! The product does work well so you'll forget you have it on... but one glide of a razor when you're shaving your legs and your skin will be torn up for the next few weeks. It was my fault for forgetting, so don't make the same mistake I did :)

LOVE this product and will by time and time again. Few disclaimers. This will only do so much to protect against brand new shoes. It will definitely help, but will not protect your foot from getting blisters if the shoe is tight or small from the getgo. That's just going to happen no matter what. It will alleviate the pain for uncomfortable shoes that you own and have already at least started to break in. It will also leave slight unnoticeable residue at the end of the day, once you take your shoes off. It just starts to flake off lightly and all you need to do is wash it off. I put this on w all of my even slightly uncomfortable shoes and I barely ever have any problems.

Used this for the first time and loved it! Business trip, wore heels day and night for 5 days at a convention center. NO blisters or sore spots. Highly recommend for times you need to wear heels and walk all day. It creates a protective barrier on your foot so your skin doesn't rub against your shoe. I was skeptical that it would work as well as I was told it would. But it was fabulous!

This product really worked well, perhaps I was a bit over-zealous in my expectations. I bought a new pair of work boots and used this product to attempt to save the back of my feet from the breaking-in process. It worked decently with the boots, but I think it would have worked better if it were more breathable in the boot. So: worked great for heels as advertised, however if you try to use this product with shoes that don't have any breathability, I recommend 2 coats of the pre heels and a thick pair of socks.

My husband and I used this on our honeymoon since we both bought new shoes and didn't have time to break them in. Worked great! Only negative is after a few days of using it, if you don't scrub your feet well enough you will get a large coating of the spray that starts flaking/peeling off. Not a huge negative, just make sure to thoroughly scrub your feet after each use.

Pros: works well to keep shoes from causing blisters.Cons: ruins pedicure (they did warn me it would dull polish); doesn't last all day in hot weather; must spray onto feet over towel because it leaves area tacky; very expensive for the amount you get.

This product really works! I have terrible problems with shoes hurting my heels but this stuff really works! I used it for a week at Disney World!

Saw this while channel surfing - it was on either Good Morning America or The View or some such show. I have terribly sensitive feet and get blisters on my heels. I finally purchased PreHeels to use with new shoes I bought for a wedding. No blisters! Any foot discomfort was due to me not breaking in the shoes beforehand.I then used the product before wearing flats I regularly wear for work that sometimes give me blisters, no irritation on my foot except for a small spot I missed.Definitely recommend
