These were supposed to be "sensitive" so I assumed they were latex free, which they were not.
That is a really stupid definition of "sensitive," then. (I'm not actually allergic to latex, as far as I know, but my skin definitely objects to prolonged contact with it.)
I have to use the fabric type bandaids, the plasticy ones kill my skin.
I'm pretty sure I am not allergic to latex, but those bandaids bother my skin too. I always use the fabric ones.
I'm allergic to the adhesive. The fabric ones seem to have the least irritating adhesive, but I can't leave them on too long.
All in all, it would behoove Kraft to send out stickers or have retailers run them through the meat counter with a correct meat label and "Attn: Cheese!" and sell them on discount.
When I had a thing removed from my face the surgeon told me I didn't even have to have a piece of tape at all. He said just a dab of Vaseline would keep any debris out until a natural scab kept it protected.
It's the adhesive that kills my skin, too. A gauze pad, held in place with a narrow gauze wrap, fastened with a bit of paper or silk surgical tape--gauze to gauze, never touching skin. If the wound is small enough, and not bleeding, I just cover with bacitracin cream and let it air.
Bonny, I'm glad you had such a good time.
It's my favorite holiday! It only comes three times a year--Half Price Candy Day!
But I hear that Jelly Bellies' CEO has a hate-on for transgender kids, so we are boycotting his candies--which (sob!) include candy corn. So not those, even at half-price.
I too have a sensitivity to band-aid adhesive. And to bactine. So anytime I get an ouchie, I pray and dose it with alcohol.
