Do the edges of the barrier lift, roll up or get gummy when you are swimming, going in the hot tub or taking a shower?

When being in the water the edges of the barrier may lift/loosen, causing them to roll and affect overall adhesion.

Order sample
  • If female, consider wearing a tight swimsuit when in water to help prevent the adhesive edges from rolling. 
  • If male, bike shorts underneath your swim trunks may help.

 

 

  • It may help to change your barrier a couple of hours before doing your physical activity. This way the barrier will have time to seal well to your skin while still being relatively newly changed.
