Good DIY mouth tape
- I use this tape to hold my mouth closed while sleeping. I have not found a full-face mask that is comfortable and doesn't leak. - I tried several different pre-cut tapes. This tape works the best for me. It has the right amount of adhesion for my needs. I can remove and reapply it once or twice a night if needed. It does not have extras that I don't need; e.g. aloe vera, vitamin E, hypoallergenic, breathable, etc. - I cut a 3-3/4 inch long strip and fold one end over 1/8 inch to provide a non-stick tab for easy removal. - It costs roughly 10ยข per strip, which is cheapest solution I found.

Perfect for sensitive skin.
Outstanding tape. I have very sensitive skin and am allergic to a number of adhesive products. I have had no skin issues whatsoever after over a week of dressing changes. This tape holds perfectly yet is not a problem to remove. The paper backing is split making it super easy to remove and is marked so that it is very easy to neatly cut the exact length you need. I give my highest recommendation.

Awesome tape with no irritation
My skin has always been very sensitive to irritations (no allergy, but scrape a little bit and boom. I either get a rash, some superficial bleeding, or eczema). Dressing tapes and band-aids are my arch enemies if I have to wear them for more than 2 days. I have a recurring wound in my groin area (i.e. very thin and sensitive skin), which requires dressing and changing every day for weeks, so this time, even my usual and trusty Tegaderm didn't cut it. The surrounding skin is one big rash, red, angry, dry and some spots started oozing blood. I tried several other products, like Medipore, which was better but still not great. My NP told me to try this one. I've been using it (covering non-stick gauze pads) for 10 days now, and I'm happy to report that it's *almost* great. I like that the paper on the back has square markings, making it super easy to cut the right size. The backing is also very easy to remove. The tape itself is very thin, kinda cloth-like and very flexible. And it sticks very, very well (probably the best-sticking dressing tape I've used). And surprisingly, removing it does not tear off my skin, and I've only had minimal irritation (due to the fact that my skin was already irritated to begin with), but it has not worsened it. I am trying to vary the size and orientation of my dressings to avoid sticking it to the same spots too many times, but obviously that can't be avoided on the skin right next to the wound. As I said, it's very sticky and flexible - which means I can use a small patch that's barely bigger than the gauze, no need to cover a big surrounding area. It also doesn't move at all, even with underwear seams rubbing, or leg movements. I don't feel it at all. Not waterproof but stays put when taking a shower. Win. (Side note: I strongly recommend you guys try these skin barrier wipes before using tape, it works fairly well (just don't use it on open wounds, it has alcohol) : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010PD3MGU?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)

Great stuff!
Great tape for covering skin to protect it. Super flexible and absorbent. I used it under a removable plastic custom made finger splint after tearing a tendon. Helped greatly to prevent chafing.

Strong hold and gentle on sensitive skin!
Hypafix Dressing Retention Tape works great for securing dressings and medical devices. It provides a strong, reliable hold while still being flexible and comfortable to wear. I especially appreciate that it does not irritate sensitive skin. It stays in place well without causing redness or discomfort, making it a great option for longer wear. Itโs easy to apply, dependable, and has become a product I trust for keeping dressings secure.

Excellent for mouth taping
I bought this to use for mouth taping for my (very mild) sleep apnea and it works really well. No skin irritation, flexible and thin but really strong adherence to the skin. Not painful to take off. Itโs also wide enough that one piece more than covers my whole mouth. Iโve even discovered I can put my lip conditioner (pure lanolin) on *over top* of the tape after itโs on and it will penetrate because the tape is porous โ and it actually seems to make the lanolin work better because it isnโt rubbing off, itโs trapped into the fibre of the tape so staying on all night. Combined with no more mouth breathing my chronically chapped lips are healing and smooth. Benefit I wasnโt expecting. A highly quality product no matter the use case, and if youโre a mouth taper, 10/10 recommend.
