Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program These blister bandage are a life-saver! I am prone to blisters on the back of my heel, especially in the heat. When I wore a pair of fairly new espadrilles all day at WDW, I developed painful blisters on both heels. Thankfully, I had these bandages because wow did they make a difference. Easy to apply, they covered and cradled my sore heels, protecting the blister from further rubbing. I was surprised how well they stayed on despite the sweat and water from rides like Splash Mountain. I replaced a couple of times, but given that I spend all day every day walking under tough conditions, I was more than pleased with the durability of these bandages. I will now always have these in the medicine cabinetif they can save my feet (and therefore my sanity) during a theme-park vacation, they can certainly help me cope with the odd blister in my ordinary life!
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have used these bandages and the following are points I have written down about the product.
1. They are good to protect blisters on the back of the heel but be wary of how you place the bandage.
On my right foot, I placed the bandage exactly in the center of my blister. On my left foot, I placed the bandage off center so that the edge of the bandage met exactly where my shoe rubbed off my feet.
Results? The right foot bandage stayed in place protecting my blister. The shoe on my left foot began to rub with the edge of the blister bandage, completely peeling it off in less than 30 minutes on the street. A 2nd bandage properly placed cured my problem but I wasted 1 bandage and there are only 6.
2. They last about two showers.
I take long hot showers of about 30 minutes or more. These bandages last about 2 showers before they need to be replaced. They will last longer for you if you take shorter showers (or more room temperature water).
3. they are easy to remove.
A hate bandages because they pull on my skin and are painful especially if they grab on to fine hair present on arms and legs. You don't want any skin pulling on a blister, either. These were surprisingly easy to move, and for the stubborn one, a little rubbing alcohol does the trick (only on closed blisters, it will sting on a opened one!)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I don't often get blisters, but when I do I like to have blister bandages on hand. I have Dr. Scholl's Blister treatment on hand for those not-so-nice occasions and I do believe I like the 3M Nexcare better. For one thing, the shape is much better for using on the back of the heel. The Nexcare are slimmer and more contoured for that purpose. If you are going to be walking or running, these are perfect to use as a preventative measure.
If you have a blister that has already opened, application of the Nexcare is actually more apt to be more sterile than the Dr. Scholl's. I had to bend the Dr. Scholl's in the middle to open and never fail I swipe the pad with my hand. The Nexcare, although tricky, make it less likely to touch the face of the pad. Of course washing my hands before application is a must. The Nexcare are better for those odd spots like between the toes because they are slimmer.
When I tried both, the Nexcare and the Dr. Scholl's stayed on about the same length of time. If you have to remove the bandage before it falls off, simply soak your foot in warm water for a while to loosen it and pull/stretch on one side to remove it. If you have a large blister I'd opt for the Dr. Scholl's as they are larger, but all in all, I prefer the Nexcare. They are easier to apply, are slimmer, and more tapered for use on the back of the heel.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I tried the Nexcare Blister Waterproof bandages thinking that they would be as good as their other Nexcare waterproof bandages, but was rather disappointed. I went on a recent trip to the St. Louis zoo and had a couple of these on hand in my bag. When trying to pull the paper off from around the bandages, it is so cumbersome and so thin you have to be extra careful so that it does not stick to yourself and you end up ruining the bandage in the attempt. When I finally did get one to hold and not turn on itself, it was indeed waterproof and it did stand up to a bit of wear, However, with all of the walking that I did that day, it did finally shrivel up and I had to start over. All in all, they did not end up lasting the whole day for me and ended up going to a convenience store in the area and using a regular bandaid. Unless I have no other choices on the shelf, this is not something I intend to purchase again.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program OK, let me first talk about the waterproof nature of these bandages. First, they really are great at keeping water out of the affected area, and they in fact last quite a while! I put one on my wrist to see how it would hold up on an area that gets went pretty often (dishes, hand washing, etc.) and I am pretty impressed with how long it lasted. Other bandages would have fallen off the minute they saw water, but this one held on for days! So the waterproof feature is beautiful.
The second part, the blister protection, is something I am struggling to "rate". A blister forms where something is rubbing and abrading the skin to cause an open wound. The problem with blisters is you can put a bandage on them, but without removing the thing that caused it, you get a bandage that quickly bunches and rubs right off the wound (sometimes taking skin with it). It would be best to remove the offending shoe or other cause of the blister, but sometimes you can't (vacation, traveling, long walk, etc.). SO, I have never found a bandage that would stay on my heel if I had a blister unless I now wore open backed shoes. I actually had a semi-healed blister on my heel from new sneakers, and sadly this bandage did just what I expected it to doit bunched and eventually just fell off from the friction with the shoe. So sadly, I don't think this is THE bandage for blisters, but I also totally admit there might not be anything in existence to solve that problem (gorilla tape maybe?). Therefore, I feel torn about holding that against this bandage. But in the end, it is specifically marketed for blisters (while there are simply waterproof bandages otherwise), so I have to review it based on that market. And in that respect, the bandage didn't cut it.

This stuff is miraculous! My husband has a diabetic skin condition that makes his arm itch. We have gone to several doctors and tried many medications over the past 2 years. (It's been driving me crazy too!)He has been told that the issue is neurological and not topical. The minute he used this spray the itching stopped.As for me I had several small cuts on my hands and arm from gardening. I am not exaggerating when I tell you my cuts healed over night! This stuff is not a scam it really works and I am so glad I found it!You will be very glad if you get ths.
