The first time I used this stuff was to seal a deep cut that was on the top of my index finger right above the knuckle. It was great because I couldn't cover it with a bandage considering the location. It helped keep the wound closed like a butterfly bandage so scarring was minimal.
The second time I had to break it out was when I accidently stabbed the tip of my pinky with scissors. Yes, I'm accident prone! There was no way a bandage would have covered it so a couple swipes of this and I was good to go!
Yes, there is MINOR stinging upon application, no worse than if you applied hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol, but after the first swipe I didn't feel anything. Repeated applications (it will peel off if it's in an area that is exposed to water frequently) were pain free. I also apply it to any scratches or small abrasions to speed healing.

Yes, It does sting! Otherwise it works, especially on feet/heel cracks. I wish they carried "Nexcare™ Skin Crack Care " which is the same, but does NOT STING! No idea why the difference, but I have always used the Nexcare brand for years. Tried a bottle of this and will go back to Nexcare. Was hoping to find it here now.

I hurt the back of my heel and bandaids kept falling off. I tried every brand and size and they simply would not stay. This product was recommended to me and I could not be happier. Provides a shield that seemed to speed the healing process. Cannot recommend enough. Only minus is that if the wound is even slightly open it stings like crazy for a few seconds. Then it feels better. I will probably give up regular bandaids and just use this from now on.

This stuff works great for mosquito bites. Just dab some on and not only does it stop the itching, but when it's dry, if you scratch it, it can't do any harm! Yup, you can scratch right through the new skin seal. I get eaten alive by mosquitoes if I forget to wear pants in my yard, so I just use New Skin on the new bites. They go away faster with no scabs from scratching. Smells like really strong nail polish remover (God knows what's in it) but it works. Saves me from scarring and spots on my legs and arms!

Comments about New-Skin First Aid Antiseptic Liquid Bandage, 1 fl oz:
Once there was a bandage product called Second Skin (now they produce only high-end blister bandages). That product cleaved to your skin like a silk glove and did not come off for days. I loved it. New Skin is the next best thing, and is now the only thing I know of that provides a near-perfect seal on small wounds and cuts. I carry it when backpacking. Its alcohol content (stings a bit) disinfects, and then when dry the product seals the wound (takes a minute). There is nothing else like it. I do not know if it promotes healing; that would take a study. However in my experience, it prevents infection and keeps you active, whether you are gardening, swimming, or playing tennis.

I suffer from wintertime cracks in my hands and have tried everything. This is the only product that actually heals my hands quickly. It keeps wounds dry even after having my hands in water. It burns a little upon application and you have to give it a few minutes to dry, but it is worth it!
Comments about New-Skin First Aid Antiseptic Liquid Bandage, 1 fl oz:
Every winter, my fingers get these cracks near my fingernails. I coat the cracks with New-Skin and they heal in a few days. While they're healing, I don't have that pain of repeatedly breaking the partially healed cracks and exposing them again to germs. It is applied with a brush similar to fingernail polish.
Comments about New-Skin First Aid Antiseptic Liquid Bandage, 1 fl oz:
It's always interesting reading the other reviews when you find a product that's great. This stuff is incredible! It has an odor, but I certainly don't think it's evil and horrible. But people always have different perceptions. It's very cold going on, so I wouldn't suggest using it on young children. We live in the high desert of Nevada where the winds just scream over the apartments like a banshee when it storms. When the humidity gets to 10% it's high. My cuticles get cut and it's really painful, but putting bandages on them is futile. Everytime my hands get wet, off comes the bandage. When we discovered this stuff we gave it a try and it keeps the sore area protected so life can go on.
Clean affected area. Apply a small amount on the area 1-3 times daily. Let dry. A second coating may be applied for extra protection. To remove, apply more New-Skin® and quickly wipe off. Fingernail polish remover may dissolve New-Skin® Liquid Bandage.
Store at room temperature away from heat.
May temporarily sting upon application.
Do not allow to come in contact with floors, countertops or other finished surfaces-will stain.
