From wearing flip flops, clogs, sneakers without socks or jogging or roller blading along the beach to get your butt and thighs and butt in shape, you may in fact have a great looking pedicure and some noteworthy assets, but some sorry looking blistered feet.

Blisters are quite common and can be cause by anything from ill-fitting shoes to moisture and sweat (or both) that cause friction resulting in unsightly (and often painful) sores.

Keep your feet blister free by:

· Sprinkling shoes with powder to keep them dry

· Rub problem-prone areas like heels with Vaseline

· Apply antiperspirant on extra sweaty feet (that didn’t fully respond to powder) before a walk or hike. Not only will your feet be free of blisters, but will smell nice too.

· Once out and about and you feel a blister forming, take off your shoe an cover area with a Band-Aid, so make sure you have plenty with you.
