I did find some great athletic shoes that has orthopedic inserts built in. I am wearing one of them on my left foot. Not fashionable, but very practical. :)Charlestongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269794937743797142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-38429081971361114882013-03-23T11:09:13.489-04:002013-03-23T11:09:13.489-04:00Oh Beano, my retroactive sympathy!Oh Beano, my retroactive sympathy!Charlestongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269794937743797142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-66691874419445563652013-03-23T10:37:50.725-04:002013-03-23T10:37:50.725-04:00So sorry to hear about your foot.

The BB cream fad never grabbed my attention because they're basically designed with a younger hide than mine in mind! LOL.

NoVA is my home, but I think it has grown too fast, and I hate the crowds.<br /><br />I haven't been interested in BB creams for a couple of reasons.<br /><br />When they hit the market, the BB stood for blemish balm. When the brands realized they were onto something, they broadened it to beauty balm.

Just a few years ago, I naively believed that many big beauty bloggers purchased all their cosmetics and reviewed them for our benefit, much like in makeupalley.com or such. Not so.

I'm glad to read your foot hurts a little less than last week...but still it's far from perfect: do you have to walk a lot? or can't you give your feet a very long rest which would enable the bad one to heal faster and the bruised one to recover its normal color?

They are no longer personal opinions honestly expressed; rather they are advertising platforms designed to get free products and make money.
