Patch Tan Bamboo Adhesive Bandage Sterile .75 x 3 25 Container

I recently developed an intolerance for the adhesive used in Band-aids and most store brand versions. These don't give me any irritation. I wish they cost less but I rarely use more than one a week so it's not too bad.

I have always been that kid who could never wear regular latex/adhesive bandaids. I am so allergic and so sensitive to the [of course] most common, cheapest, cutest, longest lasting bandaids. I would swell, rash, and welt up from using them to the point where the reactions to the bandaids were more irritating than the reason for the bandaid itself! These PATCH bandages are amazing. They actually help, the stickiness doesn’t stay after you remove one, they are super long lasting, even stays on in water, they’re comfy and flexible, and I have no negative reactions to them whatsoever. I love ‘em. Buying them always. Plan on bringing them into the classroom for my students. Thank goodness for these bandaids, wish they were around when I was little.

Great bandages! Will fall of if they get wet, but hit the strip with the hairdryer, and your good to go. Even the hand dryer in public restrooms work.

Patch tan bamboo adhesive bandages do not cause allergic reaction on sensitive skin.

Yay! A product that actually is what it claims to be! They only got a 4 star cuz they don't stick well when wet, but it's a trade off. I'll take that over the severe skin irritation from regular bandages which may also be caused by the glue. Also, they're pricey. They could cut the price a bit by eliminating the cutesy over-packaging. If you really want to promote green living, over-packaging is just not necessary if you have a great product. And they have a great product. The inflammation and irritation caused by regular bandages is so great that it causes my skin to scab over.

I stopped using band-aids from an article I read that the commercially available band-aids and other bandages contain PFAS or better known as "Forever Chemicals." It has been known to cause cancer. I have not been able to find any info on whether these bandages contain PFAS or not, so I am taking a leap of faith with Patch products. I read a few articles online that state Patch does not contain forever chemicals. I do like the bandages as they adhere to the skin well enough. And peeling them off is easier than band-aids. My only suggestion is to make them a little bit wider, like the width of band-aids. They come too narrow, IMO. It's not a huge deal but something I would welcome.

Non-returnable. With recent concerns PFAS (a forever chemical used brand name bandages,) I purchased this brand. (I do realize complete avoidance of forever chemicals is highly unlikely, but think why knowingly apply bandages that contain them on open wounds.) Finding a non-toxic solution will involve much trial and error. This product is acceptable but not ideal. Adhesion and the performance of the narrow edge around the center pad are specific concerns yet to be determined. It seems the trade off will be no PFSA’s or having reduced coverage, absorption, and the multiple bandage options major brands supply.

I acquired an allergy to the adhesive on regular bandages. I couldn't even tolerate them for a couple of days because they left my skin welted, red and itchy. The PATCH bamboo bandages work very well for me. The adhesive stays on after a shower or soaking. It doesn't bother me at all! I recommended them to a friend who needed to find bandages for her child with an adhesive allergy.

They are hypoallergenic which is good but their overall colour does not blend very subtly with my skin tone! I could not see how to order the traditional pale plasters
