Does new skin liquid bandage expire2/28/2024 ![]() ![]() But I had gotten a cut and the band aid just wouldn't stay on because it was on a bend, so here comes hubby with New Skin in hand, he put it on my cut. ![]() I still didn't use it for quite some time. in fact I had never heard of New Skin until my husband found it and started using it. I have always been a Band-Aid user, you know the stick on band aids that we grew up with. I'll go back to good ol' super glue (which was invented originally for this exact purpose albeit a slight difference in ingredients) which has always worked for me, and never hurts.įalse New Skin is the Invisible Band Aid that helps you heal fast! They really need to improve this, I wont buy it again. It smells like something that you would not want to put in a cut. However, the new-skin will peel off if you wash your hands a lot, and trust me, reapplying it is painful. I do like it better than a band-aid made of cotton and tape. Whether it works good or not has not been proven, I still have the cut and it hasn't healed yet. It is not something I'd recommend for children at all. If it's a sting, then yes, it feels like a bee sting, it's not pleasant at all and I would not put this on a child with a minor cut because that child will scream like crazy. I've been using it for 2 days now and every time I apply it I have to blow on it like crazy to get it to dry because while it's wet it burns like crazy. I have never had an antiseptic product feel like that. It felt like I was putting acetone in the cut, or worse. I have quite a high pain tolerance but that was ridiculous. When I got home and applied it to the cut on my hand I almost leaped out of my shoes. I sliced the palm of my hand a little deeper than a normal papercut and in the past I have always used 'super glue' to close up these kind of cuts, and super glue doesn't hurt and it works great, but I read about New-Skin in a magazine advertisement and thought it probably works better. Though it was tough to remove in the hair, it probably worked better than any other method would have worked to protect the fresh wound. Overall, I was pleased with the way this product worked. Once the scab separated from the scalp, in the bath I gently rubbed with a wet wash cloth to try to break it apart, and eventually, I had to use the nail polish remover to get rid of the rest of the New Skin so that it would come off of her hair. Several days, baths, and play sessions in the dirt later, the scab was still intact and covered by the new skin layers. ![]() Then I took non-acetone nail polish remover on a cotton ball to remove it from the hair. With it being applied to the head, surrounded by lots of hair, this didn't really work at all. The directions state that to remove it, you should apply another coat and wipe off with a cloth. The next day, I wanted to clean it up a bit. The smell is awfully strong, stronger than nail polish. We applied it again after the first application dried a bit. She was completely content as we did this and waited patiently as we blew on it to get it to dry more quickly. He warned us that it could sting when being applied.Īfter we bought this, my husband pushed the skin together to close the wound as best as he could, while I applied the product. They won't even stitch cuts like this up these day. We were told about New Skin by my dad, who said that is what the hospital used on my grandma's arm when her skin tore back. With all of the hair on her head, my husband and I took a while to determine what to do while the bleeding stopped. My toddler had a cut on her head from her hair clip when she fell down and bumped her head.
