HypaPlast Pink Washproof, Assorted (100) with HypaPlast Stretch Fabric Dressing Strip, Medium, 6cm x 3m

I have bought those expensive plasters that cost about £7 for about four or five, so I decided to give these a try. Unlike the expensive plasters that fall off at the sight of a drop of water, these stay on all day, and I am always washing my hands. The only problem that I had, was trying to get them off, but apart from that, they are very good.

I decided to purchase these Plasters as they were incredibly cheap for the amount that you get. Unfortunately the Plasters are very poor quality.I could not get them to stick at all, even when wrapping them around a finger on themselves. I tried to apply them to clean dry skin. They had no adhesion at all. They are most certainly not water resistant.

I can't imagine what kind of standards could enable the manufacturer to claim that these plasters are water-resistant, as they become slack and waterlogged and fall off after even a single short exposure to water. In this time of Covid when we're all washing our hands more often, this means going through an entire box of these plasters in 2-3 days if you happen to cut your finger. The advantage they have over other plasters, though, is that for the price there are a lot of them in a box, and more if you use the ones that don't really fit your current purpose by, say, sticking two of the smaller ones together or cutting up a larger one. They'll still only last until the next time you wash your hands, though.

After opening g I thought I would give them a try as I was about to take a shower. Placed plaster on a dry arm IJumped in a hot shower washed using shower gel it stayed on for about a minute. I have to say the plaster didn't feel very sticky from the outset . You know when you go into a first aid box you hadn't been in for an age like the one in your car for instance and you use a plaster and the adhesive has no stick through age or because the cold has got to it ,that's what these are like it seems . I might be wrong, reading some of the other reviews these are supposed to be wonderous. However unless I picked the only plaster in the box that somehow missed getting the waterproofing and adhesive applied when manufactured then these are no better than plasters you can pick up from the pound shop. Now I'm not saying that the ones you get from the pound shop are no good but they don't pretend to be something their not. Not worth the money don't stick very well when dry useless in wet conditions that's my experience, somewhat different to many of the reviews I read before wasting my money. So you pays your money and you make your choice in future my purchasing decisions will be made by how many one stars an item has not how many five stars .

These plasters just do not stick which kind of defeats the object of a plaster! Even with 2 plasters across each other to help stick they don't stay on. If you have the patience to keep pressing them down you may get a bit of use out of them but then there's the hypoallergenic side of them... Wasn't true for me....my skin was red from where the plaster had been 😔 I took a chance on these cheap plasters but unfortunately it didn't pay off.

I bought some plasters when I was out around the town and they would not keep on any cuts so I bit the bullet and bought a box with variable sizes and I must say they are brilliant.They are very sticky and even after a couple of hand washes they still stop in place.So don't waste money on others buy these.

I used one of these for the first time on the back of my heal where a walking boot was rubbing; I've successfully used a more expensive brand of plaster for this which stood up to the job but these did not. The adhesive is not very strong and the plaster came off very quickly. Maybe these will be fine for cuts and grazes which are not in such vulnerable places and you do get a great many for your money.

These dressings are a tad cheap and cheerful. Nevertheless, they are reasonably effective and, despite my sensitive skin, do not cause an allergic reaction. However, be prepared to wait a week for their arrival and everything to be squashed flat into an envelope. Hardly professional......
