Skin Tone Bandages: Variety Pack of 3 Bags (90-Count; Multi)

Tru-Colour did it years before B*ndaid, I'll say that! I bought these when I was an RA living in the dorms, it was so nice to be able to offer my residents the choice of a bandage that actually matches their skin tones. They felt heard. Five years later, these are still the only bandages I will buy. The adhesive doesn't leave that nasty residue and it doesn't hurt to peel off, but they stay right in place until you take them off. I'll never buy another bandage brand.

I bought these for my students after 26 years of teaching, and being frustrated that the nurse's office bandaids didn't match my students!! My 3-5th graders were SO estatic!! I let them take a few extras home, and they would regularly drop in to "get a band-aid" even if I couldn't see a scratch.They also opened up beautiful conversations about skin color, and how we can't tell somebody else how to judge what is 'just right' for them, and how individuals choose to label a color. The vast array of color names they assigned to the band aids were lovely; everything from items in nature to friend's names.I wish schools throughout the nation could afford to stock these. I'm trying to figure out how to fit them in my personal budget for next year, as schools won't purchase them for us. Thank you!

This is the answer to a long, long quest. I've often thought I should invent just such a product for the children I work with who need to know that "flesh" comes in all kinds of shades, all equally lovable. Now that I have a 5 year old bi-racial grandson with that typical tendency toward skinned knees, I'm thrilled to have discovered these. Thank you and thanks to Facebook for sharing the story of a grown man who, when he found these, cried for his childhood self who had suffered the indignities of "flesh" bandages being only for light skinned folks.

i saw an article about these on huffington post...and to be honest, i never knew that bandages were the color they are to be "flesh" colored...these are expensive (compared to other bandages), but i got them mainly because the creator said how his son preferred these over the regular bandages sold in stores...i thought, hey, why not give my own family the same confidence and happiness, even if through a bandage...these are a hit! the kids love them and any small scrape they come to me wanting a bandage...they are flexible and hold firmly in place...they do not easily come off...i don't know how they hold up when wet, though...also, i really like the packaging...slim plastic package with a zip lock closure...great, space saving and waterproof design...

These bandages come in many shades that will blend into most shades of brown skin. They are much less obvious than the “tradition” bandages that have been historically designed for a different skin tone.They also stick and hold very well. I’d go as far as to say that you could leave them on for a week or two without them falling off. Lol. That would more of an issue of bygone.The one “negative” note is they might not be flexible enough to be placed directly on joints like elbows or knees inless they are no placed at just the right angle.

These bandages are great. The fabric is flexible and comfortable to wear, the adhesive is strong but not impossible to get off, and the purple color matches my very dark skinned husband and the green matches my biracial kids. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the packages I received were manufactured in 11/2014 and the expiration date is 11/2016 which is only 3 months from now. I wish we would have revived newer stock.

I am a school nurse who was looking for good quality band-aids for my students, and I came across these. Since the majority of kids at my school are Hispanic and African American, I thought the kids might like having band-aids closer to their skin tones. I used one today on my elbow. Now, I can't comment on how well it matched my skin tone because I am white-white, in fact, my students call me, "the white nurse," but the bandage stuck to my elbow despite all the flexing and bending at work. When I got home, I took a shower, and it hung tight! Love 'em! I am stocking up for the 2016-2017 school year.

I bought some for house household use, as we are all different shades in my home, and also to cover my nose piercing for school. Please see attached picture for that. They are great, they come with a great quantity amount. They match skin tone great (it can't be perfect for everyone), and they are extremely durable. I will take the suggestion of someone else and buy a pack to take to my kid's school. The only con i have is that I can not find the name of the shade, on the package (i.e. chocolate). Please spread the word about these bandages please.
