Adhesive Quality

Pros:

  • "The adhesive is really good."
  • "They stay on way longer than reg Band-Aids and they even last all night long!"
  • "Best adhesion in any comparable product by far."
  • "The adhesive worked well and only came unstuck if the fluid underneath increased to the margins."
  • "The adhesive on this brand keeps the bandage in place overnight, even on oily skin."
  • "They have excellent adhesion, are generally easy enough to remove, and mostly light-water resistant."
  • "The adhesive keeps it tight, protects the area, and is so comfortable."

Cons:

  • "The adhesive is so strong it rips off the top layer of my skin as well as remain sticky after."
  • "If you pull it off early it may rip off the new skin forming underneath, so be careful."
  • "Because it adheres so tightly, you need to be careful removing it or you can remove the new tissue growth over your wound."
  • "These ripped off my scab, and scarred my skin."
  • "These gave me an idiotic looking square shaped rash because the adhesive bonded too tightly to my skin and was extremely difficult to peel off."
  • "One thing I would say negative about it is that when removing, a large amount of it stick with my good skin, like something melted, which made it hard to peel off."
  • "These stick so well that they are painful to take off."

Effectiveness for Wounds and Acne

Pros:

  • "Effective at sucking out the gunk of a large white comadone or even cystic acne nodules as long as they’ve come to a head almost already."
  • "It drains the fluid and gunk put of your pores so that the pimple is flat and less red."
  • "These cut my healing time down immensely and there is hardly any scarring."
  • "Amazing for acne! Saw this on tik tok for acne issues and it really help my daughter with her acne."
  • "These work better than any hydrocolloid acne patch I've tried yet."
  • "Really great for those under the skin acne bumps."
  • "These are terrific. Open blisters are really painful put one of these on and forget about it."

Cons:

  • "Unfortunately, this product did not work for me. It actually made my issue worse."
  • "If your wound is already infected, this would not be a good choice."
  • "Wound got infected and pain intensified because of this Band-Aid."
  • "Even after using multiple boxes of these over the course of two weeks, they did absolutely nothing for my acne, did not help with any scarring or anything."
  • "It trapped some moisture under the bandage and I ended up with an additional would from the bandage."
  • "I ended up with a humongous rash on my face."
  • "Didn’t do anything for me, didn’t pull out any gunk or anything."

Comfort and Ease of Use

Pros:

  • "Great bandage for kids."
  • "This was the perfect bandage; it stayed put and was watertight."
  • "Simple to apply. This is the bandage to be used instead of any others."
  • "They were very easy to change and didn't stick to the healing wounds like regular bandages."
  • "These are very effective on scrapes, burns, or abrasions, where coverage is important."
  • "They’re obviously amazing for cuts and scratches and other wounds as well."
  • "These bandages were fine for post surgery that I had done."

Cons:

  • "When I first put this Band-Aid on, it was very comfortable and seems like such an easy way to take care of a wound. As time wore on, however, the wound became uncomfortably itchy."
  • "Kind of hard to take off skin."
  • "The problem is that after removing it the scrape seems like it has hardly healed at all."
  • "Be careful. These seem cool but they don’t let the wound breathe and my husband almost lost his foot from the infection that was hidden under this bandage."
  • "They’re also SUPER PAINFUL to take off which never used to be an issue with the older ones."
  • "These are okay for a flat service but usually blisters don't show up there."
  • "These are the best bandages ever. They stay on great, prevent scabs and decrease scarring, and actually take the pain away from the cut when applied."

Price and Value

Pros:

  • "They're expensive. But well worth it."
  • "Purchasing from this vendor was the least expensive option I have experienced."
  • "I think the hydro seal is a great bandaid and worth paying more for."
  • "These are expensive compared to regulate 'plaster' type bandaids, but, you only need to use one as you won’t be changing these every day like you would a normal bandaid."
  • "They’re pricey, but don’t need replaced after getting wet & the adhesive lasts so the cost compared to regular bandages is probably minimal."
  • "Great for blister and protection from rubbing."
  • "These make an excellent 'second skin' to prevent your from re-injury while you try to heal your wound."

Cons:

  • "They're very easy to use, and stick to the skin very well."
  • "These used to be worth it when it was $4 a box."
  • "Now it’s practically $4-5 for each dressing! What a shame."
  • "I don't think it's worth it anymore for me at these prices people are reselling them at."
  • "You cannot be serious! $27 for three Band-Aids? That is positively insane!"
  • "I thought they were good and in a large size, but much too expensive to only have a couple in the box."
  • "Kind of pricey though since there’s only a few in the pack."
