Works GREAT! NexCare is the ONLY brand I'll buy from now on!
Unlike the other brands, even the major ones, the NexCare bandages REALLY ARE waterproof and stay on!And the clear bandage around the pad makes it easy to make sure you are covering the wound completely and not getting the adhesive on the wound.They are perfect and extremely well thought out!However, because they really do stay on, it can be hard to get them off. But when you get them off, they don't leave a residue which is great!

The absolute BEST!
Amazing! Stays on even on fingers and truly waterproof. By far the best band aid I have ever used!

Simply the best, great for regular use too!
Water proof is amazing but it’s just better than any other bandages including Band-Aid. It’s thinner, stays on longer, comfortable, doesn’t irritate my skin. Apparently it’s breathable, because using Band-Aid or the like for a little long and my skin turns white but this doesn’t!

Reliable and Waterproof Bandages (with a Few Minor Improvements Needed)
I purchased the Nexcare Waterproof Clear Bandages some time ago, and overall, I found them to be a reliable and effective solution for covering and protecting wounds. Here's my detailed review based on my experience:One of the standout features of these bandages is their excellent 360-degree seal. The Tegaderm adhesive used ensures a tight and secure fit, which helps keep the bandage in place even during physical activity. I was pleasantly surprised by how well they adhered to the skin without any discomfort.The claim of being waterproof held up quite well. I had no issues showering or even swimming with these bandages on. They effectively kept water out and maintained their adhesion throughout.What impressed me the most was their ability to conform to the contours of the skin. The bandages worked flawlessly on skin folds, wrinkles, and other challenging areas. They maintained a snug fit without compromising comfort.In terms of pricing, I found these bandages to be reasonably priced compared to other similar options on the market. They offer good value for the quality and performance they deliver.However, one area where I believe Nexcare can make improvements is the assortment of sizes available. While the package came with a decent variety of bandage sizes, I would have appreciated more small and XL options. This would ensure a better fit for wounds of different sizes, especially for individuals with smaller or larger injuries.Overall, I highly recommend the Nexcare Waterproof Clear Bandages for their exceptional seal, waterproof feature, and ability to conform to the skin's contours. They provide reliable wound protection at a reasonable price point. I hope Nexcare takes into consideration the need for additional small and XL bandages to cater to a wider range of users.

All the right positives compared to Band-Aid
When I was ready to buy a new box of bandages I didn't give it a second thought. Of course I would buy Johnson & Johnson Band-Aids just like I always have, and my parents before me, and my grandparents before them. I had tried other brands in the past in an "emergency" and they were next to useless so I have always stuck with the leading brand. I was ready to push the "order" button this time but my eye caught this product from Nexcare. Never heard of them. But I saw that they are made by 3M. Who in the world knows more about adhesives (Scotch tape, Post-it Notes, etc) than 3M? So I figured what could it hurt and changed my order to a box of 100 assorted bandages in the most common sizes.I'm impressed. Unlike everyone else who simply tried to copy Band-Aid, Nexcare pretty much reinvented the bandage. To begin with, it's not the typical shape but more of a diamond shape with rounded corners. The corners don't catch on clothing and other things like the squared-off edges of other bandages and the diamond shape is far more forgiving around areas that aren't flat like knuckles, wrists, toes, etc (doesn't it seem that bandages are never needed on flat, smooth expanses of skin?)There's another major difference as well. Most bandages leave a gap along the sides where water and other stuff can get to the wound. Nexcare surrounds the entire wound and seals in in against water and foreign objects, yet the material breathes and allows healing air to penetrate. Leave it to 3M to come up with that magic. One independent study showed that Nexcare leaked about 25 percent of the time while Band-Aid about 40 percent of the time, compared with more than 85 percent for lower-rated products.I can't count how often I've been disappointed by so-called waterproof bandages that peel off as soon as they get wet. Not so with the Nexcare product, it really sticks like glue but yet is ouchless when peeled off, even on hairy arms and legs. Another plus is that they do NOT contain latex.Bandages are something no one wears by choice and frankly this box of 100 will probably last me for years, so 3M isn't going to get rich off me. They are priced competitively but it doesn’t hurt that Amazon often has them on sale.Are they perfect? I can’t find any major faults with the bandages themselves but I do have one suggestion which is rather than toss all of the three sizes into the box randomly it would be nice if they put some sort of cardboard dividers to separate the sizes to make them easier to find when you don’t have a lot of time to fuss around looking for a bandage.I know this review is pretty enthusiastic about something as basic as a bandage but I do like these and now that I've tried them I think they're a big improvement from what I've been using till now.

Stays on for days. Even after showering!
These are the best bandaids ever! They stick very well and the clear adhesive border makes them less noticable.
