Skin Grip Freestyle Libre 2 Sensor Covers & Lingo CGM – Waterproof and Sweatproof Adhesive for 10-15 Days, Pre-Cut Medical Tape, Continuous Glucose Monitor Patch – 20 Pack, Camo

Works perfectly. Goes on quickly and easily and comes off the same way. Stays in place during work, showers, and sleeping on that side—so they are waterproof and durable. Better than bandaids because they don’t hurt when being removed.

I'm on my third sensor which means I have applied these three times and removed them twice. I lost a lot of weight and have "crepey" skin and I think that might be why but adhesives REALLY stick to me and tend to be hard to remove. The sensors themselves stick great, I don't need these patches to help keep them on, but the idea of just going around with the sensor exposed doesn't appeal to me so I will continue to use these even though they are very hard to get off and I'm pretty much waiting to tear my skin. I remove them and the sensor in the shower, by pouring generous amounts of baby oil over them. I do leave the same sticker on the whole two weks, they start to look ragged after a while but I don't really mind. They aren't water resistant and get wet but I think they are supposed to breathe and the sensors do just fine. (You do not have to cut a hole in the middle, it is not necessary.) The adhesive paper on the back is divided, there is a circle the size of the sensor in the middle and then the rest is divided into quarters. I leave the middle circle on so it doesn't stick to the sensor in case I do need to change the sticker without pulling out the sensor. I apply them by removing one quarter, sticking that part above the sensor, removing the bottom quarter, applying that one, then doing the sides. It's a little difficult to do by myself (and with my non dominant hand) but it can be done. Pro-tip if you're new to this, don't apply a sticker after applying a new sensor until after you wait the first hour and are sure the sensor is working correctly, so you don't waste a sticker.

Pros:*Too sticky (went through a whole pack and never lost a sensor)*Helps bevel the edge. Door glides over sensor instead of under it.*Did not react to adhesive*fabric stretches and lays flat*used this patch with Dexcom G7, worked great.*can change patch without removing sensor.Now what you’re really here for.Cons*frays after a few days. At the end of 10 days looks ratty, and I’m not talking a little frayed. I’m talking inch long strings hanging in clumps. Do not underestimate the fray! But still sticks.*not water proof. Water soaks through*too sticky! Hurts to take off.If not for the fray would be 5 stars.

IMO you MUST use some kind of adhesive patch over the Libre 3. Otherwise it will likely not stay the 14 days.These adhesive patches are great. Easy to put, stay strong... and hard to remove. Likely made worst because I also use Skin Tac wipes https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002NSCHY4/ (use some throw away gloves when you use the wipes, else your fingers will be really sticky).I feel that combination is great if you like to take some hot and long showers for instance.Now to remove it, baby oil and related stuff might be ok but takes forever so I do not recommend them. Instead it's worth spending to get Tac Away wipes https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VS1FD9I/With practice, one wipe is enough. But at the beginning, you will likely need 2 wipes (they have no acetone).Like all removal, start on any side of the sticker that is a bit lifted off the skin. Then wipe the wipe back and forth while pulling a bit on the adhesive until you either have half of the adhesive removed, or remove it fully. Tip: use the wipe to clean any part that had adhesive and now had dirt stuck to your skin.Best of luck, and keep that glucose under control, so your insulin response also stays under control, and your health improves (+ you will stop being hungry, stop being hangry, lose weight as a side benefit, etc).I cannot recommend enough "Glucose Revolution" https://www.amazon.com/Glucose-Revolution-Life-Changing-Power-Balancing-ebook/dp/B098442BG3 as a fast and likely life changing book.

These are the only sensor covers that I will use. I’ve never had one not last the full life of the sensor. They’re comfortable and stick really well.

For a couple of months I had to use a Libre freestyle 3 to monitor my blood sugar as it dropped throughout the day. I often bump into things, so I was looking for a good product to ensure I get the most out of my sensor. These are perfect (when applied correctly)!Normally I would shave that area of my arm, shower, dry off, prep with alcohol, place the sensor, then put the skin grip on top, leaving the backing on the middle part just in case I have to swap out patches before the sensor expires. After 1 or 2 shower the edges would start to fray, but most of time they would stay on at least for 7 days, if not the full 14.The removal process is pretty simple, especially if you leave the backing on the middle piece, as it doesn’t get stuck to the sensor. Not only is the product worth the money, but it also makes the Libre 3 freestyle worth the money since I’m able to keep it on the full 14 days.
