I’m a clumsy girlie and am always seeming to get nicks and cuts on my fingers and hands. Cuts on fingers and hands are a super pain since we are constantly using them and run-of-the mill bandages don’t cut it for me here. They get wet, fall off, are uncomfortable, not durable, etc etc. the NEXCARE waterproof bandages, however, don’t pose any of those problems. They stay on when you need to wash your hands, shower, get anything wet, whatever. They are worth the investment to seal and protect until healed.
