6 high-heel hacks every woman should know

 

Tape your toes: Put your foldable flats back in your bag: A night in heels shouldn’t mean you have to hobble home. Before going out, tape your third and fourth toes together using nude or clear medical tape (the flexible kind). This helps take pressure off the ball of the foot.

Sweat-proof your feet: Since even the tiniest bit of moisture can cause ankle straps to slip and slide, mist your feet ahead of time with spray deodorant

Sandpaper your soles: A simple trick for extra grip: Use a sheet of sandpaper to gently rough up the bottoms of your new heels.

Toss in tea bags: To kill foot odour, dry out used tea bags, then place them inside shoes for 24 hours.

Stretch ’em out with ice…: This one’s admittedly a little weird but does help break in new pumps that pinch in the toes. Fill plastic baggies with water and smoosh them into the toe box. Put the shoes into the freezer overnight (yes, really). As the water freezes, the baggies will expand and magically stretch out your shoes.

Blow-dryer and socks: Put on a few pairs of socks (or one thick pair of thick, woolen ones). Next, stuff your feet into the too-tight shoes and aim a hair dryer at any problem areas. Don’t forget to flex as you stretch.
