All Health Clear Waterproof Adhesive Bandages, Extra Large 2 in x 3 1/2 in, 8 Count | 100% Waterproof First Aid for Minor Cuts & Scrapes

The bandages are 3.5 x 2 inches wide, and the wound pad is 2 x 1 inches wide, so the protection area is relative to the pad size. Even though I fortunately do not have a sizeable cute at the moment (knock on a big piece of wood) I placed one on my forearm to test it out for the purpose of this review. The adhesive film is very light weight, but the edges all seem to stick fairly well, however I can see a little peel up on the edges, but it mostly seems to be sticking well.I have waited about 5 minutes and I am going to wash my arm now..... I am back..... and..... IT FAILED!!! I ran a light warm stream over my arm and the bandage. I soaped my arm and lightly rubbed, rinsed, then soaped and rinsed again and the bandage peeled right off!!! No pressure applied, just a light rinse. THe soap must have loosened and dissolved the adhesive. Whatever, it peeled right off, none of it stuck! So much for waterproof wound protection!I now know not to use this for waterproofing... maybe if I still needed to use this I could use some medical tape to keep it in place. I think it could be still used as a regular cheap bandage, but just don't get it wet!

Review for: All Health Clear Waterproof Adhesive Bandages, Extra Large 2 in x 3 1/2 in, 8 Count | 100% Waterproof First AidThese bandages are a quality product and made in the USA. They are also a good value. If used correctly and applied carefully, these are invaluable for covering a wound when in the shower or pool. They are not a durable bandage that is meant to just wear all day. I have been able to be in the pool for an hour and get out to find that the skin beneath my bandage has stayed dry. You do have to be very careful about putting them on properly. I know this from experience and I bungled the first one.Once out of the pool or shower, I remove this bandage and apply a more durable one that is not waterproof for the day. These have a very thin film that adheres to the skin but it is more delicate than your average bandage so they are less durable. When removing them, the gauze portion does not stick to the wound.

I haven't needed to use these yet but they seem to have good adhesion. I feel like these would probably be for knee scrapes and I love that they're waterproof because nothing is more annoying (and gross) than having a band-aid come off in the shower. A must-have for any first-aid kit and I also recommend keeping them in your purse along with an antibiotic if you wear heels and commute in the city, as I have tripped and fallen a number of times only to get a nasty scrape on the gross pavement. You'll feel so much better if you can get your wounds disinfected and covered right away. :)

I really like them but eight are not enough for me. They seal on all four sides, making the bandage tight against water in the shower. I have a rare autoimmune skin disease that makes sores that hurt when shower water hits them. The pad in the middle is the other great part to this bandage. I can put anitibiotic ointnent on it and and not have to worry about the bandage coming off in the shower. If the bandage rcomes off, then I have to start all over again with a new bandage and ointment. The price is reasonable for the amount, I just to have more in a box.

The All Health Clear Waterproof Adhesive Bandages are great to have in your first aid kit, both in the home and if you have one, in the car. Fortunately, I have not needed to use one of these yet. However, I did test one in the shower. The bandage worked great and kept my "cut" clean and dry. I really like that there is padding inside of the bandage in which you can put antibiotic ointment. I did not attempt to wear the bandage all day so I cannot comment on how long it lasts, but it did work under the shower water.
