Infusion Set or Freestyle Libre Adhesive Patch

They do the job. Helps keep the CGM on. I have babies the try to rip the CGM off and having the skin grip on really helps secure it. The CGM leaves adhesive residue but the skin grip doesn’t. Love the print so much better looking in person pictures don’t do it justice.

It sticks super well, and very easy to apply to your skin. Great quality .

I bought these for two reasons. First, I wanted a flesh-toned CGM cover. As a deep-toned Black woman, walking around with a nude colored patch is rather conspicuous. With so few options of patches for darker skin tones, I wanted to give these a try. Second, I wanted to try the cutout patches to compare them to the solid patches that I'm now using.With respect to skin tone, these are great. But that's about the only positive thing I could say about my experience with them. These patches were difficult to apply. Even after following application videos, I still found it hard to put it on without the bandage essentially collapsing on itself (and this happened even though I only peeled off one piece of the backing at a time). I wasted three of these patches trying to get one on correctly. At such a high price point, that is completely unacceptable.The next issue I have with them is that the hole is too big for my sensor. I purchase the correct patch for my sensor and there was still so much room left around my CGM. Beware, this version of Skin Grip patches does not protect your CGM.I can't really speak to the adhesion endurance because I couldn't get the thing on properly to wear it for any duration of time. I can say when I put it on, the grip was extremely firm, and even with adhesive remover, it was very difficult to take off. But again, I only wore it for a few moments, so I can't say if that adhesion quality remains after wearing it for a number of days.Overall, attempting to use this particular patch was an incredibly frustrating experience. If you're a dark-skinned person looking for a patch that matches your skin tone, protects your CGM, has good adhesion, and is easier to apply, I'd suggest the Fixic Freestyle Adhesive Patch in coffee or the Kovoq Sensor Covers for Freestyle Libre 2, (40 Pack) Adhesive Patches Waterproof. I actually use the CGM cap from Kovoq with my Fixic patch, and they work wonderfully together to secure, protect, and conceal my CGM.

I tried a different brand of sensor cover and it started peeling up right away. I'm on day 11 since applying the Skin Grip brand cover. The sensor is still on and the cover looks worn but has not peeled up at all anywhere! My only complaint, and the reason I took off a star, is that the hole in the center is so large that it's a little tricky to make sure it covers all of the original tape from the sensor. This also made it difficult for me to apply to my own arm. I had to get assistance. I wish the hole was a little smaller so it fit more snugly around the sensor. Other than that, I am very, very happy with the sensor cover. My sensors kept falling off early which got expensive quickly.

I love the fact that the company is an US company and not a chinese company. I love that they support T1D charitys. I have had the same patch on for 5 days now with no issues of it lifting or coming off. I have hit my sensor on the door jam countless times this week and it has not moved or came off. I like the colors (wish there were more color options). The only issue I have it the opening is not big enough for my Freestyle Libre and I had to stretch it some to get it to fit over the sensor. I am not sure if this is common issue or if I did something wrong. But all in all I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

I really wanted to like these - they're a little on the pricey side for the variety pack but they had great reviews and I loved the colors so I decided to give it a shot.The first thing I noticed upon opening the pouch was how small these patches actually are. They'd probably last longer if there was a greater surface area and I was expecting them to be wider than they are.Secondly, it should be noted that these do nothing to ensure that your CGM stays on your body. They will not protect your CGM or keep it in place. You'll have to purchase a plastic CGM "flower" piece seperately to accomplish this. I expected this and planned accordingly. This did not affect my review but it is good info for someone who has not used these patches before.I was, however, most disappointed with how quickly these patches fell apart. I covered them in the shower each day except for one, so for those that do not cover in the shower, these patches might actually last less than a week. The most upsetting part was that the adhesive stayed firmly on my arm, but the fabric of the patch pulled away, leaving me with gross sticky marks on my skin but floppy fabric edges flailing around.By the 9th day of wear, this patch had stretched out so much that my plastic CGM "flower" cover was sticking out and snagging on my shirt, so I had to remove and replace the patch for safety reasons.Bottom line - this is a great concept but the patches should be larger, and each pack should contain a CGM "flower" cover to make this style of Skin Grip patches fully usable. Sadly I will not be purchasing these again.*Many people suggest using Skintac under these patches. I'm allergic to it, so unfortunately it's not an option for me and I can't recommend it to others or let anyone know if it helped this product's usability and longevity or not.

Thank you

Bought this based on recommendations from another diabetic. They use a different type of monitor however. We had to use 2 of these in 2 days and it still didn't hold the device in place. Definitely defeats paying $24 for an item. If it worked that would be one thing. However we were confused by the product. Held up in water but in 24 hrs there was wear and tear like it was being ripped. Also the circle doesn't fit precisely on the device. We figured perhaps user error with the 1st one. But the 2nd one was unfruitful as well. Thinking about trying the full covered ones. But not entirely confident on that front
