When it says mini, it means mini..these are tiny. They do not stay cold for long as they are so small. They would be good on a child but, if your going to use this on an adult get something bigger and thicker.

Hypafix Dressing Retention Tape - 6" x 10 yards
Toss those nasty rolls of first aid tape, this stuff is awesome. I originally had this applied at the hospital to a incision line on my knee. I was impressed with how it conformed and flexed with my joint, did not ITCH, and stayed-put. The tape is "fabric like" and allows the wound to breathe. Moreover, it can be cut to fit easily. Just place a gauze pad over the affected area, cut the tape, peel off the backing and stick it over the wound area.It is somewhat pricey, but having had such awful experiences with conventional first aid tape, I feel it's worth it, especially for larger wounds, particularly if they are located in an area that is going to move.

Medline Curad PF Nitrile Exam Gloves, 1000 per Case
There was a problem with the order which led to getting these gloves at a discounted rate. The seller's customer service should be applauded. The gloves themselves are very useful and certainly more durable than latex. In the end, you get what you pay for.
The only unfortunate (in my mind) fact is that these gloves are made in China. Who knew? We can't make gloves like this here in the USA? The "Curad" brand has been around for as long as I can remember (and I can remember more than a half-century). That is my reasoning for giving four stars instead of five. Well, I need disposable gloves until my familial responsibilities are fulfilled, and these do live up to the tasks. Order with confidence.

Molefoam CS6
I'm sure this is a great product if you're looking for a thick foam bandage. I wanted the thin material product to wear on the foot and still be able to fit into shoes. I guess I didn't read enough detail or pay attention to the thickness listed. They still do make the thin product, but they need to emphasize this feature on the label better. Buyer beware!
First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser 5 oz
I used to have fairly bad uneven skin and pimples, but after weeks of using this, I've seen a change in how my face looks! barley any breakouts and my skin tone evened out! I was impressed by the results. This stuff is safe for people who have sensitive and dry skin (I have eczema, so a cleanser that's safe is a must. I's great for washing off makeup and keeping pimples at bay. Use at least twice a day and no more (cleaning your face more than once in a day just promotes dryness as well as oilyness). I recommend this product for nearly all sensitive skin types.
I have oily T-zone and normal cheeks. Always had great skin then I got the Nexplanon (3 yr b.c stays in your arm). My face went crazy. Waited 6 months took it out waited another 6 months skin never got better. I spent all of 2011 & 2012 trying to get my face back I'be had two different dermatologist and between them everything was tried.
More pimples and now dark spots I was loosing it.
Now:
I saw a review about this product and a girl said it worked in 5 days. I give you 2!! My face is already looks so much better! I problem I kept having with other products is they would over dry and burn my face up. This feels so different.
I'm soo happy i found it and I hope others do too.

This has worked really well for me. It foams up nicelysimilar to the consistency of shaving pot cream. With a pea-sized amount, it is able to remove makeup and bring my face back to its (almost squeaky) clean state. I haven't tried removing eye makeup with this, but it does a great job at removing foundation, blush, eyebrow pencil -don't have residual makeup on the cotton pad when I apply toner afterward. Will add this to my list of favorite beauty products.Read Best Reviews of First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser 5 oz Here
I have super sensitive skin that reacts to most cleansers. This one doesn't bother me. It removes make up without drying too.Want First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser 5 oz Discount?
This cleanser lathers well, you only have to use a pea-sized amount to cover your whole face. It seems to remove makeup well, and it's non-irritating and didn't dry out my skin. I don't think this alone will help cure noticeable acne, but for that it's important to use a cleanser in general. I did notice a light soapy smell that's unpleasant to me, but it goes away quickly.On it's own merits, this product really has no major flaws. I'm giving it 4 stars mainly because of the price I've used other face washes that are as effective at half the price or less.

Adventure Medical Kits Sol Two Person Emergency Bivvy Blanket
This is essentially a big bag, actually a huge bag. This is metalized plastic, but it is much less prone to ripping than the common Mylar 'space blanket'. The construction is two layered bags; a foil bag on the inside and a polyethylene orangebag on the outside sealed at the top, not unlike two nested trash bags. This can tear, I made a rip in the outer bag just trying to straighten out some wrinkles. Damage like that however is quickly repaired with some box tape. Also unlike the Mylar products this is reusable. On a recent camping trip I used this like a pillow case to enclose a down rectangular bag to add warmth and protect the down from the (bad) weather during the outing.
Returning this to the small stuff sack is easy if you carefully roll it to remove trapped air. Any air left inside and this will never fit the sack. Repacking this in the field is not easy, especially if it is windy.

Bought two Adventure Medical Kits SOL Two Person Emergency Bivvy Blankets (one for my BOB and one for my GHB). Bought the two person to give more flexibility / adaptability.

I have one of these in each of my vehicles, just in case I get stuck in a snowstorm in the middle of nowhere. It is a good idea to have a First Aid Kit, Food Rations, Water, LifeStraw Emergency Water Filter, Wool Blanket, and a weatherized outer cover like this Emergency Bivvy Blanket. In todays society it's unlikely for all communications to go out, but it's better to be prepared than not!Save 14% Off
ADC Berman Oral airway kit 6 sizes in poly bag
Great set of OPAs. They're nice and smoothsomething that will matter more to the patient more than myself, but they didn't require any sanding or anything like that (a situation that presented itself to another medic I know). The only drawback is that it doesn't come with the plastic case in the picture, instead each one is individually wrapped.No, they're not sterileand let's face it, there's no need for them to be anyway.
I'd recommend them for a trauma bag! Just hope I never have to use the small pink one.

This airways kit is perfect because it includes a full range of airways from infant through the largest adult sizes. The airways are brightly color coded which minimizes any possible confusion. The plastic case they come in is perfect for quick access. Too many times in the past I've had to dig around through my bag to find the right size airway. Highly recommended.Read Best Reviews of ADC Berman Oral airway kit 6 sizes in poly bag Here
Came in a hard plastic case which was a surprise after reading other reviews. They are a different style than what I use in the hospital but they work just as well. They are a welcomed addition to any first aid kit. Just make sure you know how to determine the size your patient will need. In the military they taught us to use the one that is the same length as the distance from earlobe to corner of mouth.Want ADC Berman Oral airway kit 6 sizes in poly bag Discount?
I bought these for my emergency medical kit. My wife is a nurse and these are the ones she said to buy. Multiple sizes for different sized people. Not a bulky item so it doesn't take up a bunch of roomSave 59% Off
Bayer Advanced Aspirin Extra Strength, 500mg, 20-Count
These work like normal but they really do work faster.....at a price. I have had two bottles and tho kept in organal bottle with the thing inside to keep them from getting moist. Within a month they were falling apart due to any humidity in the air. Best bet is keep them in their bottle, in a freezer zip bag, with all the air out. I also had some in a plastic pill box in my purse, the were almost liquid in a week. Again they work well and fast but can not withstand ANY humidity so use thick zip freezer bag, sealed tight with no air, and they should last a long time.

Keep Calm and Carry On Bandages
These are really fun, for someone who enjoys English goods. My One Direction fan thought this was very clever ! She hasn't had the opportunity to use them, so I can't comment on the quality yet.
