New-Skin Waterproof Liquid Bandage Brush, 1oz

Had a deep cut from a box cutter and 2 coats sealed and allows me to continue with my day-to-day tasks without reopening. It did sting very mildly on first application, but not to the point that I would not use again, definitely recommend for a cut that's in a spot that needs to stay dry.

They don't mention it stings A LOT when applied to a cut. Worse than using isopropyl alcohol on a wound. Says it prevents infection, but that would likely be interpreted as meaning the cut gets covered to prevent subsequent infection after you already treated the cut, not that this contains an antiseptic. I reread the product description, and they do say "May temporarily sting upon application". The sting is about the same as using isopropyl alcohol, but this sting lasts longer. Contains Benzethonium Chloride which is an ammonium salt. Had to look it up since I've never seen a first-aid product that listed it. Before then, I thought it was something to do with an evaporative thinner that let the nitrocellulose harden as it dries. I understand they want to sterilize the wound before sealing it, but I'd rather use iodine or isopropyl. Once I tried it the first time, realized it stung, and had an antiseptic, then I will more careful about where I apply it, and get ready for the sting when applied. Besides the ammonium salt, this also has ethyl alcohol. They need both? They note to reapply 1 to 3 times daily, and suggest applying two coats ... because it wears off rather easily. They say to apply another layer to remove to dissolve the sealer to remove it, but I find it wears off before then. Why would you want to rub off sealer on a sealed cut only to reopen the cut to reseal it? You get edges you can peel off. Does seem pricey for a flexible vinyl coat, but there are times where a bandaid just won't work. Irregular surface, flexing skin (e.g., knuckles, web between fingers), bandaids are too loose, etc., make bandaids sometimes unusable, or too short-lived. If this didn't wear off so easily, it would be a good substitute for a bandaid. However, reapplying 3 times a day is not practical. I apply a bandaid, and move on until the bandaid gets wet (if it's not a waterproof bandaid), or falls off. That could all day, or longer, not around every 4 hours for this stuff. Bandaids are far more durable than an application of this sealer even after applying 3 coats. Also, it is very runny (thin viscosity), so it runs off the wound when applied. Needs to be a gel-like consistency to stay where applied. The brush applicator can hold more liquid than need to apply to a small cut, so you need to wipe the brush on the inside of the bottle's neck to remove the excess. If you read the product description, they repeat the same paragraph 4 times, as though that made the description more informative. I'll keep this with my first-aid supplies, but now I know it stings, and does NOT last like a bandaid. In the furture, squeeze to make bleed (which cleanses the wound), clean the wound, apply this (get ready for the sting), let dry, and use a bandaid over it to keep it from rubbing and peeling off.

Honestly, I bought the Equate liquid bandage a while back because I thought it was a "great value" as opposed to this brand. As the Equate brand was almost empty, when I came back to repurchase (and it IS a good product), I realized that this New Skin liquid bandage is literally nearly half the per ounce price of Equate! You get a FULL ounce of New Skin, not .3 ounce like Equate, and it's slightly better because it's not quite as thick and therefore really sticks to cuts AND promotes super fast healing as well as being waterproof so it doesn't come off like band aids do every time your hands are in water. Highly recommend this product.

I recently cut my finger and this product saved me a trip to the emergency room. I did originally bandage with gauze and tape. I then placed liquid bandage on and it healed a lot faster. It basically seals the skin from the inside out. This is something I plan on keeping in my medicine cabinet for just in case emergencies.

I'm a marathon runner, so blisters, cuts, and random scrapes are pretty much inevitable, and New-Skin Liquid Bandage has been so convenient to have on hand. It's super easy to apply, dries quickly, and I love that I don't have to worry about a regular bandage shifting around or falling off when I'm active. Definitely something I'll be keeping in my gym bag!

Did not work. Received a refund better stick to liquid Band-Aid the equate brand the more expensive kinds are at the top but just keep scrolling to the bottom and you'll find liquid Band-Aid, which is an excellent product and it's less than three dollars

My finger tips get cracked in winter. I use the bactine max w lidocaine. Let it dry 2 minutes. Then add this over it and give it a few minutes to dry. Over the past decade I have tried so many products. These 2 together are the only way I could stop the pain and get them to heal

I did not receive me order

Amazon had a delivery date. In August. You guys are on the ball. Keep it up.

I love using this for my little scrapes and cuts when I'm out and about. It dries really quickly and creates a seal that keeps dirt from getting into my wounds. Feels way more sanitary than a regular old Bandaid
