Here's my take:  First off, let me say that I received the Dr. Scholl's For Her Ball of Foot Cushions for free as a product tester for Influenster.  I have not been paid to review this item nor have I been influenced to give less than an honest review. 
Me and heels?  Yeah, we don't get along.  I was stoked to try these for that very reason.  I've searched high and low for years for a decent pair of heels that won't murder my feet.  I finally found a pair that works better than others I've tried, but my feet still slide down inside them a little, causing quite a bit of pressure on the balls of my feet.  
These were easy to install into my shoes (just peeled and stuck them into the shoes) and I was ready to wear them in no time.  I noticed they do help quite a bit with the sliding and keeping my feet in place inside of my shoes.  There is nice gel cushioning as well, so the pressure of my body on my feet is much more tolerable than it was before.  I like that Dr. Scholl's for her are really affordable (someone with an epic shoe collection will benefit from that!), easy to use, easy to find in the store and they work fairly well.  Are they perfect?  Not exactly, however, I am overweight and don't have a lot of experience wearing heels on a regular basis, so perhaps I am not completely qualified to make that judgment.  They do really help the pain in my legs and feet, so they most definitely work at least moderately for me.  I would be interested in trying the rest of this product line to see if perhaps the high heel insoles would be more appropriate for my needs.  I will say this, though, I bought 2 sets (one for ball of foot, one for ankle rub) of cheap stick on cushions at the shoe store I got my heels at and they don't even touch the quality of Dr. Scholl's.  They were more expensive, an ugly color, no gel inside and they were less than stellar.  Dr. Scholl's blew them out of the water.  I'd highly suggest purchasing the Dr. Scholl's for Her before trying any other cushions for your shoes.
