A dancer's assessment of this product...,
By Denise Crawford "DC" (Missouri, USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Band Aid Brand Friction Block Stick .34oz, Boxes (Pack of 3) (Health and Beauty)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I wanted to give this product to my daughter for a serious review of its effectiveness. This is her take on the item.
As a dancer majoring in ballet at university, I wanted to try out Band-Aid's new Friction Block Stick to see if it would help prevent me from getting blisters from my pointe shoes. When I received this product, the first positive aspects that I noticed were its small compact size, no mess simple design, and its good smell. The actual application of the product, however, was somewhat awkward and felt much like putting deodorant on my feet and toes. I did not sense any significant change in the feel or friction of my shoes, but I do believe it helped a bit. The only other downside to this product was that it cannot be applied on blisters or open sores which is disappointing to me because these are the areas that I would most want to protect from friction. Overall, I think this product would be good for the average shoe wearer whose shoes don't fit perfectly, someone who is wearing new shoes for the first time, or a lady putting on heels before a big night out. If you are looking for serious coverage, though, it looks like the plain old band-aid is still the best way to go.

Wear those strappy sandals all night long!,

This review is from: Band Aid Brand Friction Block Stick .34oz, Boxes (Pack of 3) (Health and Beauty)
Before I found Friction Block, I would literally put ten Band-Aids on my feet and then carry a box with me everywhere if I wanted to wear heels. Or flats. Or wedges. Or booties. I can't even wear most flip flops because I get blisters everywhere from rubber or leather straps. And strappy sandals just meant an excrutiating evening after the first few minutes. But then I discovered Friction Block and I haven't used a Band-Aid in months! My feet are blister free. You have to apply it liberally the moment you feel anything rubbing (or in my case, you know exactly where each pair of shoes will cause blisters, so I use it before I even put anything on my feet). You cannot wait until you have a blister, and you may need to reapply if your first application is very thin, but one small stick lasts a long time even with frequent applications. (Warning: It may discolor lighter fabrics; test in an inconspicuous location first.) I love this product!!

Easy to use and worked how I needed it to,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I will say I did not use this in the recommended way, for shoe blisters, because I tend not to keeps shoes that cause blisters. What I did want this for, I am almost embarassed to say is chafing in other areas. I don't consider myself overweight, but by darned if my upper inner thighs don't chafe like crazy when I sweat. It has been to the point that I felt like my skin was ripping off and I get actual swelling in the chafed area. I thought this might help, so I applied it and it worked like a charm for me. What was also helpful and hopefully not a fluke was that my shorts did not seems to ride up as much between my legs. The container is smaller than a travel size deoderant but pretty much is used in the same way. I wish I could review how it works with shoe blisters but like I said, I have no shoes that cause blisters, but I do like how it works with chafing and it would be my guess it would work well.
