I used it every morning. Two Caminos, no blisters. Great stuff.
 
start 2 weeks before then,
at night so it dries and does its thing,
( 2 different types : one prevents/helps the other hardens the skin )
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
I didn't start using it before the Camino. Three weeks in, I am using it before bed, in the morning before putting on socks, mid-day after drying feet and before putting on clean socks. Love this stuff - no blisters. But I think the mid-day boot airing, foot inspection and sock change really helps. Buen camino!
