so worth it!
i've been using smith+nephew skinprep pads off & on for over 30yrs. i've tried other, less expensive brands of skin protecting pads, but, fir me, these are worth the xtra cost. i'm an ostomate with sensitive skin, & for each appliance change, i have to apply skin protectant after each of 3 different product applications. this is the only brand that has enough protectant for 3 applications! i simply pour the remaining liquid out of the packet onto the pad. none of the other brands have enough protectant on/in them for 3 applications.
