You can prevent blisters by wearing comfortable shoes that fit properly, but even with the necessary precautions, you can still develop blisters after a long walk or a hike. To prevent this, treat your feet with Care Plus Foot Powder before you set off as this foot powder absorbs moisture, keeps the feet dry, and helps to prevent blisters. It also cools skin and reduces and prevents a burning sensation. Dust feet with foot powder before and during long walks and hikes. Air-dry feet before applying the foot powder and remove any excess powder before putting on socks.

Also ideal for dusting around the edges of bandages and tape to prevent clothing from sticking!

Long hikes, exercise, new shoes, hot weather: feet are exposed to a multitude of challenges. There’s one thing that can spoil a long walk or trip: blisters. Foot irritation can form incredibly quickly. Constant pressure or friction can cause a blister to form, for example wearing uncomfortable shoes all afternoon or taking a long walk or a brisk hike can lead to a blister before you know it. Friction or pressure causes the top layer of skin, known as the epidermis, to separate from the bottom layers and this is where the blister forms and fills with a fluid called plasma. The body creates a blister to protect the wound from further pressure or friction. Protect and take care of your feet with the foot care products by Care Plus.
