It Stays! Roll-On Body Fixative 2 oz

The adhesive works perfectly to keep my kids knee high socks from falling down, and they're the big Japanese style ones. Easy to use, and comes off without a fuss to!

Great quality, sticks well with my pain patches I use, very easy to use, no mess roll-on-stick. Thin film which is great for my sensitive skin. Durable, stays in place when using, no yucky smell. Highly recommend. Will buy again, as I have used this in the past. Jobst is a great brand name. I love their product.

I developed lymphedema from just below my knees to my feet in both legs, as the result of injuries sustained in an auto accident. This condition is not fun, to say the least - and having to worry about sagging "garments" sliding down one's shins is just one more PIA aspect of lymphedema that is uncomfortable, adds to the "self-conscious" factor of this condition, and negates the medical effectiveness of the garments. After muscling through three-plus months of thrice-a-week decongestion therapy and twice daily compression pump sessions, and having my legs wrapped in multiple layers of bandages and foam rubber 24/7 for the same amount of time, I was so excited to finally be out of the wrapping phase and into my garments. However, I quickly discovered that even custom garments such as I have start to slide South eventually. (Okay, it's not a huge deal in the grand scheme of medicine, but it's very frustrating and it precludes the stockings from doing what they're designed to do!) When I mentioned this issue, my wonderful OT at the lymphedema clinic where I had treatment recommended "It Stays" Body Adhesive. This stuff is great! My stockings definitely stay in place with a quick application of the adhesive. I just take a quick swipe all the way around my leg right below where the silicone band of the stockings hits, and then pat the stocking in place. The rollerball applicator works very well; there's no mess at all (your fingers never come into contact with the adhesive and it doesn't run or "glop up"), and the adhesive dries quickly (but not so quickly that I don't have time to get the stocking in place). I haven't experienced any problems with the bottle leaking that were reported by some of the previous reviewers - whether that's just luck or the company has fixed the bottle I have no idea. I have sensitive skin, and I haven't had any issues in that regard, either. The adhesive is easily removed with water and soap, and has not stained any of my clothing or I had a lot of problems with the "toeless" lymphedema stockings sliding up my foot this summer; next year I plan to use the It Stays adhesive to see if I can properly anchor the stockings to each foot right below the base of my toes. Based on how well it works to hold the top band in place, I have high hopes that it will serve me well in this capacity, too. Knowing that I'll likely be able to wear sandals and flip flops next summer because I'll be able to make the toeless stockings "work" makes me happy! I purchased a single bottle this time to try it out; next time I will probably purchase the three bottle box. A single two-ounce bottle will be depleted relatively quickly - my estimate at this point is that it will last maybe a three months. My purchase was through Prime, and - as always - I received the product in just a couple of days. Look ,,, lymphedema can be inconvenient, painful, ugly, and just an overall PIA. As of now, there's no non-invasive fix for it, and even the surgical fixes are not guaranteed to work. "It Sticks" isn't a miracle product - you will still have a chronic condition. But any product that can help make life more pleasant and a little easer to navigate is definitely a good thing!

Works fine when my stocking do not stay up.

Since my early thirties I have been ordered to wear thigh length support hose, thanks to genes from my father’s side of the family (he always said I was not his child, so not even sure I can blame him for it...). Anyway, I may or may not have followed doctors orders to the letter, but now that I am well into middle age years, I really do have to wear the bleeping things most of the time. I guess as I get older I will have to wear them 24/7. With shorts it would be the epitome of style. Regardless, the silicone dots that are now on support hose really to not do a good job staying in place. At least on my Sasquatch like thighs. So enter this stuff, which remarkably works as advertised. First I stretch up the hose to their full, lovely length on my thighs,, then roll the silicone nub region and about 1-2” of fabric down, and apply the roll on to the skin that will be under fabric. Then roll the hose back up over the glue area. I learned the fabric portion seems to stick better to the glue than the silicone nubs and tends to not to irritate my skin as much as the silicone + glue portion. It also helps prevent glue getting in underwear, which are added after the hose. The stuff holds quite well for 10 hour days of constant up and down movement. It washes off easily with water and thus far I have not had a reaction to the glue ingredients, other than some redness which I assume is due to the hairs getting pulled. It sure beats the support hose from 20 years ago that left a hairless ring around the thigh (plus I wore bike shorts that did the same thing, resulting in two rings of no hair!). One thing I have noted is that bottles will leak if they are not completely sealed and end up on their side (like when traveling). I sometimes wash the cap and threads of the bottle to help with this. Recommended. Now if they could offer some support hose with a little more whimsy to them. Like designs in the fabric of tools, dogs, bikes, etc.

**Note: I would have given this product 5-stars IF the manufacturer had devised a better way to dispense the adhesive.** The adhesive is great and does the job exactly as described and I've had no problem with it, that is ... once I've been able to get the stuff onto the item I want to stick to my body! I also find that even after removing the small silicone items from my body there is still enough adhesive remaining that I can use them again a time or two before washing them in warm water, and then reapplying new adhesive for the next wearing. But getting the adhesive out of the bottle and applied to the item is the problem! Read on ... I personally believe the use of a plastic roller ball head is a stupid delivery system! Even though I do keep it securely capped, the adhesive dries up enough to almost glue the roller ball in place. You can't uncap it and just quickly roll it onto your item ... the first challenge is to get the ball rolling freely! I don't want to stick it under a running faucet of hot water to warm it up and help the ball to get rolling, afraid water might somehow get into the bottle. You can't just place it onto your item and start to roll it - I was afraid I was going to ultimately rip my silicone item because the ball wasn't rolling, and trying extra pressure against the item to try and free up the roller ball wasn't working, but was kind of stretching out my item. So, I have to try to get the ball rolling with my fingers, which is still difficult because this adhesive is super sticky and it really keeps the roller ball from rolling. Once you do get the ball BARELY rolling, it still doesn't roll freely, thus trying to get it to roll easily and smoothly to dispense the adhesive onto an item is difficult. My jitems are small, so I only put a little bit on a few edges - can't imagine someone having to use a lot of this adhesive on a large item! Maybe once the ball gets rolling freely it's not an issue - but it's a hassle, nevertheless. So ... as far as easy of application, this product only gets one-half of a star from me. Can't believe the manufacturer can't come up with a more user friendly way to dispense this adhesive. (A small brush perhaps??)

I write few reviews, but I am so pleased with this! Used it today for the first time, and I my compression stockings did not roll or move all day! I've struggled with them rolling down for years. Tip: based on another review, I followed the instructions she gave. Put on stockings. Fold them over. Roll on the liquid. Let it dry. Then pull up stockings. No slipping or rolling all day long. I think those steps are important...if you pull them up while it is wet, it won't hold securely. It dries quickly. No skin irritation or difficulty removing. I think it will be useful with other clothing 'fixes' like holding neckline in place. So happy to have found this.

I was very unhappy when I opened this and saw warnings on side of the package. Said it may cause drowsiness and also shows a flammable sign.. Ingredients are Propan-2-oi, Aqua, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, Glycerin. On the Propan-2-oi it says it can cause dizziness, dowsiness, and unonsciousness.. Prolonged skin contact can cause irritation, dryness and cracking. This is not something I want to use on my skin. It should be displayed much better as I would have never purchased it.
