My son is your typical kid. He has been getting into everything since he was two years old and is always coming home with some kind of scratch or cut. When I ask him what happened, he has no clue.
When he was younger, he loved for me to put a band-aid on his cut - it must be like a badge of courage or something for kids. But of course the band-aid would be gone by morning - having fallen off goodness knows where.
Now that my son is 12 years old, Band-aids are not as appealing to him as when he was younger so it's great to have other ways to keep the dirt and germs out of a cut. That's why I was glad to try out a new product available at Walmart stores called SAFESKIN Kids Antibacterial Gel.
Safeskin Kids First Aid Antibacterial Gel is a topical antibacterial barrier for minor cuts, scrapes, and burns that gives 48-hour antibacterial protection. It goes on clear and gives your cut protection that is not glaringly visible to the eye. This is a much better option for kids since they all tend to lose Band-aids within hours of them being applied. And it is great for adults since wearing a Band-aid to the office is hardly a great fashion statement.
Safeskin Kids First Aid Antibacterial Gel is sold in a 5oz tube that is the perfect size to keep in a purse, backpack or car glove compartment or center console. Since mishaps happen everywhere, I would suggest keeping a tube in multiple locations so you will always be prepared.
I was the one that got to test the gel out since my son has been mishap free as of late. And don't ask me how I cut my hand since I really don't remember. I just dabbed on a small amount of Safeskin and I was good to go. It is not sticky or greasy and it goes on like any other cream. And I like knowing that it's good for 48 hours of protection without reapplying it. Even though this product is made for kids, it's good for every member of the family, regardless of age.
SAFESKIN Kids Antibacterial Gel retails for under $4 a tube and is available at Walmart stores nation wide.
