well for me, i use toe tape!. Medical tape works just as well, and if that is all you have, then use that!. They have so many different kind of tapes out there it's crazy!. also, tape still irritates the blister, and usually comes off because of sweat!. There is a Band-Aid for blisters, and they are slightly padded, and good if the blister is from the heel of the shoe!. If is it from rubbing against the box of your pointe shoe, then there are thinner ones made my Second Skin!. also, you want your blisters to be dried out so they don't hurt as bad!. put a little hydrogen peroxide on it!. hurts like a beast but it does the trick!. good luck! hope they don't pain you too bad!.!.!.

Toe tape!.!.!.Medical tape is super sticky!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I find that medical tape (the waterproof kind) stays on better than toe tape because it's more heavy-duty!. I also use Newskin, which forms a protective layer over the blister!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

use toe tape!. medical tape is more generalized!. you can use it for ankles, arms, knees, ect!. (or you can even use it to keep a bandaid or something on, or to keep a finger straight after jamming it)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
