Exhausted after a long day of holiday shopping? No doubt your dogs are
barking up a storm (I'm talking about your feet for anyone who is
confused right now about barking dogs) and you would love to have
something, anything to perk them back up again. Here are some great
products to get you ready for yet another round of shopping (because you know you're not done yet!):
Airplus Spa Value Pack - $12.99 - has everything you need for the perfect at-home pedicure: Pedistone - a double-sided pumice stone made with 100% pure Indonesian volcanic pumice with medium and heavy coarseness sides; Scrub - exfoliant sugar scrub with a special emulsifier to maintain granularity; Heel Foot Creme - super-hydrating heel creme made with paraffin for extra moisture retention; and Aloe Infused Spa Socks - ultra-comfortable moisturizing socks infused with Aloe and Vitamin E that provide the ultimate spa experience to soothe and comfort feet. While you're picking one of these up for yourself, pick one up for your shopping bestie too, her feet will thank you! Available at Shoppers Drug Mart and Zellers Pharmacy.
Avon Foot Works Mocha Supreme Energizing Foot Soak - 100ml - $7.99 - cleans, deodorizes and softens calluses for smooth feet. If you love the chocolate/coffee smell it also comes in a
Foaming Foot Scrub - 100ml - $7.99 and a
Nourishing Foot Butter - 100ml - $7.99. Because nothing feels better when your feet are hot and tired then sticking them in warm, wonderfully scented water! Available from your Avon rep - 1-800-265-AVON or online at
www.avon.ca
LUSH Volcano Foot Mask - 325g - $20.95 - get rid of dead skin and freshen up your feet with a thick coat of the enzymic papaya, deodorizing tomato and stimulating cinnamon leaf oil contained in this mask. Apply to dry feet, wrap in saran wrap and relax for 10 minutes, then scrub it off to reveal soft and smooth tootsies! I love the spicy smell but find the saran wrap cumbersome to wrap - much easier, plastic bags!
Elizabeth Grant Hand & Foot Cream - 100ml - $20 - they warn you right on the tube that it's strong smelling because of the
camphor it contains but I don't really find it that bad at all. It can be a hand cream as well, but to me it's a foot cream smell - but if
you don't mind the smell, it does absorb easily so would be fine for
your hands too. Available through their website at
www.elizabethgrant.com or at The Shopping Channel -

Kushyfoot Flats To Go! - $9.99 - you'll be kissing me for this tip, throw a pair of these foldable flats in your purse and when your feet just can't take it another minute during shopping, holiday parties or travel - ta da - instant relief! And they come in such fun prints that you will still look plenty festive without the pain! Available in stores nationwide and online at
www.kushyfoot.com
Of course the best thing for tired feet is a foot rub from a shirtless fireman... a girl can dream... Now get shopping!
