When it gets hot, I sweat a lot, and I purchased several different kinds of Gold Bond powder. I was unsure of the differences between them, and I wanted to see which one would work best for my needs.
Looking at their ingredients, the only difference between them is the amount of the active ingredient, which is menthol. The label says that its purpose is anti-itch. The foot powder strength contains 1% of menthol. For comparison, original body powder contains 0.15% menthol.
What could be better? I wish the bottle had an extra cap. The bottle opens and closes by twisting the cap. However, some powder remains outside the cap, and I hate, really hate, having powder drop on the floor. I wish I had a cap to make sure that does not happen.

I have been using battery-powered callus removers for many years. The unique feature of this callus remover that it is corded. It also uses disks rather than rollers for abrasion. It is more powerful, which may seem like a good thing, but it is much easier to hurt yourself with it. Even using a mild (not coarse) disk and a low speed, I felt it was too easy to remove too much skin.
It certainly is not 30 seconds treatment; it took me longer to use it than a battery-powered callus remover because I had to be so careful using it. If the speed was too low, then it stops when I pressed it against my foot. My callus is on the side of the foot, and this tool works best on flat surfaces. It did not work well on the curves of my foot.
Coarse and mild disks are both yellow and hard to tell apart. It would have been better if they had different color for safety.
This callus remover also does not have a vacuum, which my battery-powered callus remover has. It is very nice when I don't have to vacuum the floor to clean the skin powder that falls off during the treatment.
Overall, this model works but not as well for me as the battery-powered callus remover with a roller.

This medication comes in a tiny spray tube. It is expensive for small amount you get, however the tiny tube takes very little space, which is a good thing. The liquid it sprays has no scent and does not feel oily. The bite felt better overnight. Not sure if it would have been the same if I did nothing, but I felt better applying the preparation.

I have a small foot (7.5 shoe size), and I was concerned about that one-size-fits-all will be too large on me. Surprisingly, these sock fit ok.
These socks have two pockets and two ice packs. One on top of the foot and one under the foot, including the heel. They work pretty well. Right now, I am using the ice, but they will work well for heat as well.
