Smith+Nephew SKIN-PREP◊ Wipes, Protective Dressing Wipes, Skin Barrier Film, Contains Alcohol, Box of 50

Excellent product for adhering my husbands Dexcom to his arm

These work well to keep skin irritation to a minimum.

These are great. After you apply it and let it dry completely, bandages stick much better.

These will definitely make bandages stick to the skin better than if you don't use them. I use them on the area where the tape goes when I apply my Dexcom 6 CGM. I do not use them where the sensor goes into the arm. Just around the edges where the tape sticks.

After using so-called hypoallergenic paper tape for weeks on very sensitive skin, I was getting skin abrasions whenever I would remove it. I bought some other skin prep wipes through a home health company online, but they didn't create much of a barrier and I was still experiencing skin irritation. Someone recommended these wipes on a support group online and I found that they work much better. The only thing is that they contain alcohol so you have to make sure to avoid any skin that is already irritated or it will BURN! However, the tape sticks much better and I am able to remove it without tearing my skin off.PROS: Tape adheres to skin better, forms protective barrier on sensitive skin, allows for tape removal without creating skin abrasions, easy to use because it's in a wipeCONS: I find that I have to use gloves or keep the wrapper around the wipe because the barrier is very tacky and will stick to fingers, shouldn't use on already abraded skin due to alcohol content, can be difficult to remove barrier (even with soap and water)

I am allergic to adhesives and have to use a glucose monitor. This helps keep my skin from breaking out and it also helps with removing the glucose monitor when it is time. It creates a barrier between your skin and the adhesive and works like a charm!

Great product, great price and fast delivery!!

A must have for any CGM wearer who has trouble with their CGM's staying put. This product helps to make your skin "tacky" for a better application of your CGM.
