Happy happy feet :D


Woof woof!

Your dogs are barking.

You put your toesies through a lot: Unsupportive flip flops, impossible high heels and the occasional running blister.

Now you can get the body benefits of yoga--for your feet. Pamper your tootsies with the new Flex-Tastic foot exerciser.

It looks like the toe separators you use while your pedicure dries, but this little gizmo makes your feet feel pretty, too. Just wriggle your toes through the Flex-Tastic to stretch, straighten and realign your tootsies. The company claims regular use will help ease tension in your feet and legs and boost flexibility and circulation. You're supposed to get results with as little as 5 minutes a day, but Beauty Wonkette likes to flex her feet while watching her favorite trashy TV show.

And unlike other similar gadgets, the Flex-Tastic costs less than $10.

Ugleeee feet ?



It’s pedicure season! But there are some things a salt scrub and pumice stone just won’t fix (cough cough, corns). Hey, no judgments — wearing women’s shoes is rough stuff. That’s why head makeup artist for The Bold and the Beautiful, Allyson Carey, created a line of foundation for your feet. T!ntalize (Beauty Wonkette can't make this stuff up, people) is smudge- and sweatproof (errr supposedly) makeup designed to conceal corns, scars, blisters, veins, tan lines, and other discolorations. Of course, Beauty Wonkette had to see for herself. She recruited a few co-workers with various foot situations (corns, scars, and callouses were represented) and put it to the test. Colors range from Vanilla Mousse to Chile Chocolate (ahem.... Beauty Wonkette REALLY can't make this stuff up) and are applied just like regular foundation. The darker colors concealed more naturally, while the lighter colors — as one colleague put it — made skin resemble Barbie’s foot, in both color and texture. Hot! And the makeup wasn’t so smudgeproof: Everyone had foundation smeared on their socks and shoes. But if you really have some gnarled-up feet, try it for yourself.

When Beauty Wonkette's feet are happy, so is she :D




Beauty Wonkette LOVES high heels. And, even more than generic high heels, Beauty Wonkette LOVES sexy, strappy, high heel sandals. But Beauty Wonkette also HATES them. Why, you ask??? Well, if you ask, you don't wear high heels! It is apparent to Beauty Wonkette that right up there with the 2nd law of thermodynamics is a universal principle that dictates that the higher, the strappier, and the sexier a shoe is, the more pain it will inflict on the wearer. Hence the "hate." "Ah, Dr. Freud, what we have here seems to be a classic love-hate relationship..."

Beauty Wonkette is not about to give up wearing the gorgeous shoes she's been wearing for years. So, you can well understand why she broke out in joyful song after coming upon these babies! Foot Petals Killer Kushionz are full insoles that provide the ultimate in cushioned support AND can be worn in sandals. They’re designed to cushion the heel, arch and ball of your foot and also work like grip tape to keep your foot from slipping and sliding around. (Beauty Wonkette doesn't like it at all when her toes slide down the front of her sandals. Arghhh.)

They're made out of breathable foam. That means that in addition to providing the much needed cushion, you'll find that you're feet don't get hot the way they sometimes do when you've been walking or standing in heels. A super adhesive sticker keeps each pad in place, and they’re perfectly sized (although, you can still trim them to fit if need be). Bottom line: they fit well under your feet without obviously sticking out and making you look like some kind of orthopaedically challenged dork. Best of all, they work!

LEGENDARY! The best dupe for SkinMedica's recently discontinued TNS Advanced+ Serum

  Recently SkinMedica discontinued the TNS Essential Serum and their TNS Advanced+ Serum is seen as the upgraded version.  But Beauty Wonket...
