Side by Side Comparison of: KeriCure Inc. vs Skin shield

I used this spray-on seal after my stitches came out following a hip replacement. It kept the skin supple & softened & it smelled terrific. There was no sting, no burning, no chafing. My skin seemed to drink it in. I would not use it on any area WITH redness or open areas, but my incision was closed, & the spray kept it moisturized & free from irritation. It worked great!

This arrived yesterday. I put it on a cut my daughter has and she told me it felt very good. She is still saying that it feels much better this morning. She had been picking at it, which is why we tried this. So far it's done the trick.This doesn't seem like it would stay very long on areas of the body that are rubbed often (fingers, hands, joints). But it's working well in this application.

This thing is great!1.)Stops bleeding almost immediately and makes the cut feel better2.)Doesn't sting!3.)Actually makes the cut smaller, somehow! I believe it pulls the skin together. The cut doesn't bother you and heals quicker, with less scars. You get sort of a small brown halo on the skin surrounding it while it's healing and the thing is on.For someone who gets cut a lot, this thing is great! My only complaint is the applicator. The spray is sort of annoying and puts out too much. I have ended up using a q-tip; my husband just uses his finger to spread the spray around. I like my method better. Not really a big enough deal for me to ding it.

This works great on uneven cuts like knuckles where bandaids don't work at all. Its also flexible and waterproof and lasts the whole day. It has seriously saved me a few times.

Free of Gluten, Corn, Latex, and the top eight food allergens. The only two ingredients are polyacrylate polymer and water. And it works great!

I bought this for my husband who works in all kinds of weather. At this time of year, he gets terribly dry skin, resulting in cracks around his nails and cuticles. He used Lubriderm throughout the day and night, but it just isn't enough. This product helped to seal moisture in and heal the cracks. Great stuff!

I marked one start down, because I wish it was thicker and dried faster like the other less natural kinds. But it does dry clear and makes a great barrier. Just be patient.

Forms a very effective and comfortable seal that helps prevent further abrasion. However, it takes a long time to dry, and is quite difficult to apply to round or convex areas (it rolls away before drying).

Product works well, but the spray is way too much and is difficult to control. If the company could figure out another way to dispense/apply the product, I'd give it 5 stars.

This works fine, but it smells like cheese. I didn't realized that there were non-natural options as well... maybe this one is better for me and it works, but I don't really appreciate the smell.

It may just be my spray nozzle, but it comes out in a stream and then runs off that area of skin. I expected it to be more of a light mist that would need a couple layers for good coverage. As is, I still have to push the puddle of it around. I like that it's not like putting clear nail polish on a scrape, though. Definitely a plus.

Was excited for the product - like the concept, seemed like it would work.Like one reviewer said... way too runny, takes a lot longer than 1-2 min to dry, and there doesn't appear to be anything there when dried.I sat my toddler down on the couch, put on a Dora, and proceeded to spray her scraped knee. Sprayed. Put a paper towel under leg because it ran down off both sides. Product was slightly sticky to the touch - that part's expected, as I'm hoping for a 'natural bandage'. Blew for 3min & still wet. Blew for 5+ min, and first layer appears dry. Applied a 2nd layer - still runny, still blew, took longer to dry.After all was done, didn't see a difference of skin vs. barrier. Could sort of feel it.Couple hours later, jumped in the shower, the little that was there appeared to be gone by the end of the shower. Used a regular bandage with medicine after that.

I love the idea of this product. And honestly it does work great, but it is very thin when sprayed on which makes it immediately want to run off where you have sprayed it. So you are left standing there trying to balance a thin layer of this very thin liquid on a wound and blowing on it like crazy to try to get it to dry faster. I know you don't need a heavy layer of this, but on the same note the product is SO thin you can't help but feel like you should really put a couple applications on if you want some decent protection. This of course could take a while with several applications and some serious balancing skills needed to prevent run off and don't forget the dry time. This of course is fairly impractical for a wiggling toddler, who doesn't want to be fussed over. Or even a couple of young boys, whose primary goal in life is to acquire scars for future bragging rights.That all being said, it is an interesting product and a good idea! And it feels good on, very thin and flexible. It has a very silicon like feel to it. I honestly don't know how long it would last though without multiple layers on. But I do think it probably offers more protection and keeping a cut or scrap clean than a traditional bandage as it seals around the cut or wound and doesn't allow anything in at all.I think it could have some interesting uses. I wonder if it wouldn't work well as an almost spray on finger cot, for anyone needing a little extra gripping power on your finger tips.

I got this because of psoriasis on my hands that cause them to crack and bleed around & underneath my finger nails. My thought was that this would help to keep them 'covered'. It sprays in a stream, not a fan-type spray so you waste a lot as it drips. It can handle 1 hand washing at best and is completely useless in a sink of dishes. Guess I'm back to gloves...sigh.This is ok if you are covering a child's scrape or scratch. It doesn't sting but you can't use an antibiotic cream underneath it either. If you want something to keep in your car to use at the park, it's ok. Just remember to clean the wound when you get home.

Spray bottle clogged after 2 months in the cabinet.Expected a bit better on the spray partWould look for a pressurized can the next time

The spray is very thin and tends to run off of the wound easily. It feels sticky instead of drying properly and creating a nice seal on the wound. I don't think this product is worth it, you are better off with a liquid or regular old bandaid.

Container is smaller than I expected for the price. Also, the sprayer on it is not a go way to apply

I tried this because the description said it could be used on a cold sore. However, this dries so slowly, it was still tacky after almost a minute. I suppose that is ok for other external areas, but to wait for something to dry that long on your lip is a hassle. I probably accidentally licked all of it off before it dried. I'm not sure if that is because I received an almost expired product. Perhaps a fresh bottle would dry faster.

Does not seal wounds

Not good.

I received an expired product

No seal just wet then drips off.

Washed off. stayed sticky to touch. Waste of money. I'd really wanted it to work because it's premise is promising. Used as directed,
