I recently received the Sunkissed Voxbox from Influenster (you can read my first impressions here) and I have been having TONS of fun testing out the products! One of the products I received was the Dr. Scholl’s for Her High Heel Insoles.
I don’t really wear heels all that much. I do own some but I only wear them on special occasions and even then I usually end up taking them off somewhere along the line. With this information in mind I will be reviewing them in the context of wearing them in flats and flip-flops (total summer essentials!)
Oh, and before we begin I need to mention that: "I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes."
First off I want to start out by saying that the packaging on these was a NIGHTMARE to open! I seriously had to butcher the plastic with a pair of scissors in order to get them out. I considered taking a picture once it was open but it was too gruesome to look at.
My first test run was in a pair of flip-flops:
(I have no idea what is going on with this picture I swear it didn’t look like that when it started out...)
During the summer I live in flip flops, so naturally I figured since those are what I wear most often they are what I should start this experiment out in. The day I slipped these on I was planning on doing some major shopping so I knew that I would be out and about all day and would really get a good feel for the inserts.
The initial feeling was...weird...they felt really squishy yet hard but once I got to walking they started to feel more normal. Like I said I spent ALL DAY out and about wandering through stores and pounding the pavement and my feet never really felt tired. Once I got home and took my flip flops off my feet felt a little achey but not terrible.
VERDICT: OK for flip flops but not wonderful.
The next time I tried out the inserts was in a pair of flats
These are a pair of my favorite flats but they can sometimes hurt my feet and give me blisters, so I figured what better pair to test them out in! And, I have to say that my feet felt AMAZING!! They were so comfortable that I didn’t even feel the need to change my shoes when I got home from church (which is normally the first thing I do).
VERDICT: Definitely a must for flats!
The only thing I’m interested to see is how many uses I can get out of this one set of insoles. They do have a sticky undercoating which is why I was able to switch them between shoes. I’m going to keep rotating them out to see how long it takes to lose the stick and will try to remember to update this post to let you know the results!
My overall view is that these are definitely a necessity for my beloved flats and I’m sure that they are equally as wonderful for high heels.
