Liquid Band Aid vs Mole Skin? Which is better?

[wacampbell]

I have always used Liquid Band Aid went I felt I was getting a blister and if I ever got a blister (mainly due to forgetting liquid band aid). I am taking my ficancee and his two DD to Disney World in a couple weeks.. And was wondering if Mole Skin is better or just the same as the afore mentions stuff. Thanks!

I carry both but perfer Moleskin since it provides better padding!

I don't know which is best but Dollar General carries Super Moleskin 3 strips of 4-5/8 X 3-3/8 for one dollar.

Go with what works for you but I think moleskin would be better. Now I have used liquid bandaid but not for blisters.

Now I do COVER trouble spots with real bandaids at times.

Now to AVOID blisters, you should try my fav product (tip from the DIS boards) of Body Glide. If you don't know what that is search the threads -- just title for BODY GLIDE -- you will come up with the answers on what it is --

Ditto-Moleskin for the padding.

I would use Body Glide and avoid the blister to begin with. You can get it at stores that sell hiking gear. It comes like deodarant, you put it on your feet before putting your shoes on and you don't get blisters. I used it for a three week trip to South America last month where we were walking miles everyday and the toe I always get blisters on, never had a blister the entire time. I would highly recommend the stuff.
