Nexcare Max Hold Waterproof Bandages, Contours to Hard-to-Fit Places, Like Heels, The Hand, Knees, and Fingers, Assorted Sizes, 40 Count

Nexcare Max Water proof Bandages and stays on 48 hours. They are flexible banges for Fingers, elbows,knees, tummy or over a medical patch to add back up care for Water Proofing. I have a medical grade prescription patch that I need to have Water Proof patch over it to protect it. These have helped me protect my medicine patch that can’t get wet. These bandages are great and come in a lot of Sizes Available in different size boxes. But the con to these are they are very finicky on applying them correctly I have to do something, because if not you can wreck one and have to start over with a new one. By applying the bottom one first & Remove the bottom two protective covers carefully Aside of that they are Amazing. you get used to it. But possibly might mess up one or two along the way if you’re not careful.

I use these to cover my HRT patch because the patches don’t stick properly. These bandages stick on and don’t budge. I keep them on for 3 days. I shower twice daily and the bandages don’t come off until I have to change the patch. They are very good.

I ordered these Nexcare Max Hold Waterproof bandages, as I needed to stock up on some first aid supplies and also wanted something that would be waterproof. This box came with 60 bandages, all in one size. I like that these bandages are a decent size, and fit alot of areas. I had a scratch on my arm, and these bandages worked well to cover that spot. I like that the clear design helps to blend in with my skin, and isn't as noticeable as wearing a regular type bandage. Also, these bandages are very sticky; this is nice, as it helps to keep out dirt and other things while a wound is healing. I like these bandages quite a bit, and they really do stay in place nicely. I did notice (upon removal of the bandages), these can leave an adhesive residue. I didn't have that much trouble removing it though, and so it wasn't a big deal to me. To some, it might be, so I thought I'd mention it. Overall, I think these are a nice choice for a waterproof bandage. I also think these are a nice value for the box of 60 bandages, which is currently listed at around $6.66 (at the time of this review). I'm glad I ordered these, and would recommend these to others.

I ordered from Amazon (I avoid third party sellers unless it's the manufacturer because of return policies), so I got very new fresh bandages that ... wow these suckers stick. I'll be honest, though-they still annoy me, I am used to using the waterproof CUSHIONED Nexcare bandages and LOVE those (the ones that are peachy skin toned). They're the same shape and like these hold their own pretty well but have some cushioning I have always appreciated for tender raw skin and they come off very easily when you actually make the effort, the biggest distinction and for my more delicate skin areas (like my legs which I have to inject weekly with both B12 intramuscularly and an RA med subcutaneously). The pandemic made those stop being manufactured, and they came back with a 20-count box that costs more than the 30-count did immediately before COVID... so I had to find, because there was something weird seeming about spending over $25 JUST on bandages for needle pricks, something that could cover the area, stay a couple of days of not messing with it (immunocompromised so I tend to leave it on so things like fibers and dyes from my pants don't irritate the skin I've jabbed)... I went for these because the regular Nexcare waterproof frankly don't tend to hold at the edges too well-ie even pulling pants up they'll roll up at the edge, not what a bandage should be doing, and using on hands that get washed 10+x a day is a no-go. These... wow. There's a REASON they warn you not to use it on delicate skin, holy moly. ABIDE BY THAT RECOMMENDATION! They WILL hurt skin that is fragile-that is a certainty. The level of adhesive here is fierce-not super glue but the heat from your body will sure make it close to super glue level stick. So my gripe is kind of also my praise... I usually don't mind assorted packs. This one's a bit odd, but servicable-some are fatter which is good for small scrapes. The material, though, is SO sticky you HAVE to be sure not a millimeter of the clear adhesive part gets on even barely scraped skin-don't get even close to it. Honestly, scrapes ARE better served with the waterproof ACTIVE ones, the cushioned ones, because scrapes hurt as they heal and these bandages have no cushion, no comfort features, just the thinnest possible layer of firmly attached clear skin, almost less material than if you use newskin [which is ACTUALLY like super glue you brush on like nail lacquer] on a small cut. As long as your cut/scrape/scabbed spot is small, they'll hold snugly, they work in hard spots like the base knuckle of your hand where the thumb side of my forefinger tends to get nicked/worn etc from gripping tools and what have you... and I LOVE the ones that are shaped as a long (though perhaps too long for my skinny fingers and way too big for kids' hands) narrow strip where it makes a round curve around the spot with padding... those finger ones are amazing. I wish they'd existed for all these decades of my life. The shape is perfect-instead of the hexagon, they're a perfect oval with a bulge-like putting a kinda fat round aspirin on top of an extra strength tylenol. I wish more of those could be bought alone so I could perfectly protect my fingers with something that goes all the way around but isn't wider than it needs to be when things like soap, vinegar, lemons, etc would rightly cause them excruciating pain. Maybe Nexcare reads these and can consider offering those since apart from my actual injections, my hands are 90% of what get hurt, my feet and knees taking the rest, usually me sleepily banging into something as I stumble to or from bed. I won't be using these anywhere very tender-so some of my injections, if I go to a more delicate spot, will be those rather costly but still preferred cushioned waterproof Nexcare Actives (I really miss my $2.30-2.99 or less box of 30 of those! $9/year for injection bandages vs $25 really does feel like an absurd markup-and the $2.99 was at locally owned pharmacies in Seattle=highest cost of living, $15 min. wage for years!). Oh, and while I do clean the area w/alcohol before I stab a needle into my skin, sure, if it's something like a hand cut, just stick w/soap and water... because you do NOT need to strip all the oil of your skin unless you're really REALLY greasy-skinned/put oil or waxy waterproof sunscreen etc before getting something nicked. Nice clean skin is plenty-these things, if new, are so sticky they don't even want to be taken off the waxy paper backing. Your skin will make this cling into every crevice, those teeny tiny fine lines on your skin we don't think about until they look ugly. Clean and dry is fine. You might make the skin really raw if you go overboard with alcohol to make sure it sticks super well... that plus THIS bandage... it can actually cause a skin injury, so be cautious. Also... don't RIP it off-be a bit gentle removing or you could end up with what looks similar to a bruise from the harsh effect of yanking something this sticky off. This is Tegaderm PLUS. It's stronger than what keeps IVs in arms.

Great for covering my estrogen patch .. these help keep it in place till i apply the next patch !! 100% waterproof So I’m not wasting money having to throw away patches that come off.

These are really good bandages - will stay on two days including time in the hot tub and a couple of showers. THEY DO TAKE SOME GETTING USED TO To put them on and take off the support strips. The bandages are very thin band aid material and they have thin paper supports to aid in getting them on without folding back to adhere to themselves. The support strips stay on the bandage until it is installed in place - then they peel off easily. I'm on my third large box now over the past two years.

I searched for a bandage that was truly waterproof and that would not lift up from regular movement or while wet. This one works great when applied flat on your skin, but it does not work if used on a knuckle or the tip of your finger. I almost gave it one less star because it is literally hard to get off and often times will leave an adhesive in my skin that requires Goo Gone to get off. In attached video, this bandage has been on for 30 hours. The photo shows the adhesive left on my fingers after wearing bandage throughout the day.

These are great bandages. They are water proof. The package limits use to 48 hrs, but they can be used for longer depending on situation. These are great for your med cabinet or first aid kit.

These are great latex free plasters so great for sensitive skin & kids. Really waterproof & has great adhesion. It is a bit tricky to apply as the film is very thin so easily folds in on itself but still easy to get the hang of it.

It's really sad to have a favourite brand of plaster, but at 37 I don't care. I trust the Nexcare plasters more than others. They actually do what they say, which is that if they get wet, they don't slide off like so-called waterproof or swimming plasters seem to from any other brand I have used. I also use the blister plasters from this brand and recommend them.

Je suis auxiliaire de vie et je dois laver mes mains assez souvent. C'est que ce pancement qui m'aide à tenir le coup des affaires de la journée quand j'ai une coupure ou brûlure. Totalement recommandé. Par contre c'est mieux airer les plaies le soir car sinon elles ne cicatrisent autant renfermés !

Perfekt !! Selbst Meerwasser war kein Problem für diese Pflaster. Der Kleber hält perfekt schmerzt aber trotzdem nicht beim Entfernen.

I have been using these bandages for at least 10 years on the palms of my hands. I have psoriasis that makes the skin cracks and sensitive to infection if not covered. I use the bandages not only as protection against infection but also a means to heal faster the affected skin. The bandages resist to water and I can keep them on sometimes even for 48 hours. Make sure that you apply them on very dry skin and press to stick to the skin.
