Nexcare Strong Yet Pain Free Tape Tears Easily For Sensitive Skin 1 Roll

This tape is very sticky and stays in place, yet it does not leave residue, and comes off with quite literally no pain whatsoever. I use it as mouth tape at night so I will breathe through my nose and it does the job very well. Great quantity (and quality!) for the price, and I'll definitely be repurchasing when I use it up!

Mouth taping has become a consideration for people who mouth breathe during sleep. At first, I thought it sounded a bit strange, but no longer. This tape works great. It stays on, doing the job. No more dry mouth in the morning, and probably much healthier sleep. This obviously requires unobstructed nasal breathing. I'm sure this product is also great for any medical-related adhesive tape needs. Read more

I've been using the plastic "X" style tape for over 1.5 years and switched to Nexcare 3 weeks ago. I like it so much more than the individual X tapes. I highly recommend trying out Nexcare as mouth tape while sleeping. Cost: This is a no-brainer. The plastic "X" style tape strips individual tape strips are very expensive. Nexcare is cheap *and* the roll looks like it's going to last a very long time. Ease of use: Nexcare is on a roll and can be easily torn with fingers alone. The edge of the roll is easy to find and pull up because the tape has a little bit of thickness. So, getting a piece just before sleeping is quick and easy. The plastic "X" style tape strips require some fidgeting with the paper or plastic that the strip comes on, and I almost always ended up bending a corner of it onto itself. Feel: Nexcare is soft to the point where I forget it is on my lips at all. The stiff plastic "X" style tape strips are not very comfortable and could make my lips a bit itchy at times. Reapplying: The Nexcare tape is super sticky and easy to apply and reapply -- I sip water about 2x per night. The X tapes did not stick as well after reapplying, but the Nexcare is just as good. Lip balm: I can also apply some lip balm to the corners of my mouth when needed after putting on the Nexcare tape, and only the edges of the tape lose their stickiness. When I tried that with the plastic "X" style strips, the entire tape would lose its stickiness almost immediately. Residue: Some reviews said they get a residue on their lips after taking the Nexcare off. I haven't experienced that. It's possible that some rolls have this problem and others do not. Or that it's very sensitive to heat, and that occurs after too much heat exposure. I'm only guessing, though. Customizability: Since you tear off a piece of Nexcare tape with your fingers, you can customize it to the perfect length for your lips. I only cover about an inch of my lips, so I could always breathe through the corners of my mouth while sleeping, if necessary (but this hasn't happened). The plastic "X" style strips are one size only. Trust: The companies that sell the plastic "X" style strips change all the time. I could never buy the same product twice (3+ months apart) because they would disappear, only to be replaced by another company and a different-looking product. Nexcare is made by 3M, which has been around for decades and is used in medical settings. I trust the ingredients of Nexcare much more because of that. Read more

I use this to tape my son’s G-tube down and also the cord that I do his feeds through on his belly and it worked so much better. He has sensitive skin. And this tape has been the one that works the best but I would like to say that it doesn’t stick as good as it used to. I’m not sure why I’ve been using it for about six or seven months and I just keep buying more. It is worth it. Read more

I use the Nexcare tape for nighttime mouth taping and it seems to work rather well! It has medium to strong hold and is pain-free when being removed. I do notice that if your skin has any moisturizer, serums, or similar products on, it will not adhere to the skin so it is important to keep the area dry before applying the tape. It is silicone based, not latex. I wear this tape nightly and have found that it doesn't slip, even through regular tossing and turning. As mentioned, I use this tape for mouth-taping. Considering the mouth is a highly mobile area, I am impressed that the Nexcare tape does not lose it's adhesion or hold over 8 hours. This product offers 4 yards of tape and it seems to last quite a while for what I use it for. The tape is not meant to be ripped so it needs to be cut. It is easy to cut, so there is a lot of freedom regarding the size and shape of tape for your needs. I have extremely sensitive skin and this tape does not aggravate the delicate skin around my mouth. There is no residue left behind after using this tape and I have never had my skin turn remotely red in any capacity. This is a huge bonus as I am very careful with the health of my skin. Not only is there no residue left behind on my skin after using the Nexcare Strong Hold Tape, but there is no 'bandage line' going around the perimeter of where the tape used to be. It's as if it were never there in the first place! I'd highly recommend this to anyone with sensitive skin who wants pain-free bandage removal every time. Read more

This is the best tape I have tried for my sleep apnea. It’s stay on all night. I don’t have to worry about it moving or coming off while I sleep. I have tried several brands, but this is the best so far. Read more

This tape is AMAZING sleep mouth tape 😍 I was skeptical at first since I was used to (and really liked) the X shaped mouth tape. But this tape IS SO MUCH BETTER!!! It sticks way better, you can reposition it a few times and it stays sticky, when you pull it off it doesn't hurt or rip off skin, and best of all it's way more comfortable and softer than the X mouth tape.

This tape kept my mouth closed, however, the air from the CPAP unit still ballooned out my checks and strained against the tape at times while using the tape. When I removed the tape, it was very hard on my lips, enough so that I will not try it - or any other mouth tape - again. I really wanted this to work so I could use a nasal CPAP mask instead of a full face one, but the lip pain on removal is not worth it. I gave it three stars because it should work well for other purposes, just not the one I bought it for. Read more
