NIVEA Elastoplast Extra Tough Waterproof Plaster, 12 Count

If you want a plaster to stay on your finger or wherever, this would stay on for the rest of your life!particularly round a finger where it sticks to itselfIn that respect these plasters are tough but and it's a major but ...once you've managed to remove it the residue left behind of the glue is simply unremovableI had to use lighter fluid to scrub my thumb and finger and wrist where I had used these plasters (I'm a gardener and get alot of small cut and thorn injuries & I suffer from cracked fingers in the winter) hence high usageThe pack says no residue I have a massive problem with this statement as it's completely untrueThe lighter fluid has not helped the condition of my skin since having to remove all the glue

Don’t know why the negative reviews. I’m sick of shop bought Elastoplast so called ‘waterproof’ when they are anything but. Thought I’d give these a go in desperation. I thought there were different sizes though, but box I received were all one universal size.Still, they fit well, stick very well and do the job. I’ve even washed my hands and plaster still in situ!

Not one to generally write reviews, I feel prompted to do so by the sheer awefulness of these plasters. I have several cuts on my hands and need to cover them effectively whilst cleaning up after a rat had been in my kitchen. These plasters did stay on for a while, but then peeled off leaving a thick layer of glue on my hands that was very difficult to take off. Hands adequately protected? No. When such things matter, I commend to you Elastoplast's Aqua Protect range, which actually work. Don't buy these.

Having used plasters rather a lot over the years - renovating an old house, it is a given you will injure yourself - I was always left a little frustrated by the fact they needed replacing within a few hours of application.These on the other hand - you put them on, and they stay on!They come in various sizes. from "you want a plaster for that little cut?" to "a couple will keep things attached until the surgeon can fix it!"Not a lot more to add other than they are durable, appear quite waterproof and once stuck down, stay stuck down!Highly recommended.

in my own experience, about as tacky as an ice cube when wet. But probably the best you can get otherwise. Over the years, it appears the adhesive on these plasters has changed so it is not nearly as tacky when wet as it used to be many years ago. How they get away with calling them waterproof is in my own experience, incredulous. Either that or I have excessively sweaty fingers in the first place. They stick to themselves extremely well, akin to duct tape. Unfortunately not so to my finger when I wash my hands or use the shower. To avoid frustration at these times you may as well remove them before you get them wet.
