This Works
I'm very active, and have tried other products to hold my CGM reader in place. My search is over. Skin Grip does such a good job, and it doesn't peel off prior to my unit's expiration date like the others did. The edges do fray a little after a while, when you purchase the colored patches, but I have not had that problem with the clear overlay patch. Just a word of advise though, try using the skin grip overlay patch by itself without aditional adhesive, before you decide to add a skin adhesive prior to applying Skin Grip. The two together irritated the skin a little when trying to remove the patch. Great Product.

Type 1 Lifesaver
I use these patches with every sensor I put on without fail!!! I live in the south and am outside exercising, swimming, kayaking and at the beach and I can say I have never lost a sensor due to water or heat. I can put one on myself but it is easier to have someone help you in my opinion. When it is time to remove the CGM, you do have to give it a tug but it does not hurt at all. I love the fun colors and feel more confident knowing my sensors are secure and will not peel off. And no more scary doorframes if you know what I mean. If you wear a CGM you NEED these patches.

Very cute colors
They are more on the pricey side but I think their worth it. The colors pop and it’s very cute. Keep in mind patches like these don’t stay on forever they will begin to peel throughout the days but they keep up well, yea the sides begin to peel but it’s at the ending point when you have to change it anyway but if you’re trying to save money then I’d say you could definitely find cheaper plain ones

Cute colors, but falls apart
I got the pastel colors and they are so cute for my dexcom! And I do like that this is an option to buy for extra protection and attractiveness of the dexcom. And they are waterproof, but my sticker has started to shred after being in the water and I seem to have developed an irritation to the adhesive. So those are bummers but otherwise, they are awesome

Not the best adhesion for Dexcom
I bought these over patches because the description states they don't fray. As you can see, mine is not only beginning to fray after 2 days, but the adhesion is not sticking well, and the patch is wrinkled. When I put this patch on yesterday it went on very well. I'm just don't see how this patch will last the full 10 days. Now, I'm worried the Omnipod patches coming will have the same problem. This is too bad since I really wanted to like these patches. Disappointed that I may lose this patch within the next 2 days. It definitely does not live up to what I expected from the description. Perhaps the problem is the type of fabric used?Update: the company refunded me for one set of patches. Unfortunately, the fabric remains the same. I do not believe using this fabric was wise.

Best CGM Adhesive hands down
We've tried several different brands of CGM patches and these are hands down the best! They almost always last the whole 10 Days of the sensor life of my husband and son's CGM and they say they are the most comfortable patches they've tried by far.

Causes sensor to fail
Love this brand and have used the tan and black patches for the past 1.5 years for my 13 year old son. I would purchase both of those again However, I will not purchase These clear over patches again. This clear patch caused sensor errors and failure for all 3 sensors we applied using this new clear film. Well over $800 wasted on the 3 sensors. This is unfortunate, as the film was very secure and stayed on very well, however, Difficult to remove. Each sensor lasted only 3 days before receiving critical failures. What we found using this clear film overpatch is that The skin becomes wet and macerated ( white, puffy and wrinkled) causing the sensor to fail. Unfortunately I bought 2 packs and missed the return window. So now I am out 3 dex com sensors (over $260 each) and the 2 packs of these clear over patches. Quite the financial blow! I do vouch for this brand in the black or tan patches however, they will occasionally need to be replaced before the 10 day sensor session especially if swimming or very active. Without the overpatch the dexcom sensor comes off with daily showers. These clear patches cause skin to become wet without showering or swimming. The tan or black patches have lasted entire days in the pool or at the lake but will begin to peel off if in the water for a long time. Lost a transmitter to the bottom of the lake due to this so we tried the clear film hoping the sensor would stay on. The sensor certainly did stay on but this film cause the skin to macerate and sensor failure. Hope this helps others avoid the costly mistake that I made purchasing and using this clear patch.

Great product !
The price is a little high and they took a little while longer to arrive but let me tell you these patches are the GOAT of CGM patches!Both my children have type 1 diabetes and use CGMs.Not only do they stay on for the whole ten days (dexcom users here) but they don't cause a reaction on my kidlets skin which has been the deal breaker on so many other patches we tried.Highly recommend 👌

Allergic reaction
Easy to apply but does not last a week. Allergic reaction both times I tried. Not a good buy

Strong Grip
I have tried three different CGM patches for the Dexcom G6. These are my favourite. Great stick and I have never experienced any peeling. The fabric material is comfortable, but after 10 days, they can pick up a bit of the colour of your what you are wearing. But still it is the best product I have tried.

Skin Grip is a good patch. I have tried several. FixIt is better for me.
It can be a little hard to get it on without folds or wrinkles. 4 removable patch backings are great.Nevertheless, it's comfortable and it's good for the 10-day G6 sensor life for my type of activities.The thicker FixIt patch applies better than the quite thin and very flexible Skin Grip patches. Both work very well once applied properly.
