20 Best Freestyle Libre Adhesive Patches (2023 Updated)

I bought these on a recommendation that was given to me on Facebook, when for the second time in as many months, I ripped off one of the sensors while going in and out grilling. I was beyond frustrated, as it was only 3 days into a 14-day sensor.

Being on a limited income and scratching together $75 for 2 sensors every month, I was about ready to throw in the towel and go back to pricking my fingers. While ranting about it on Facebook, a friend suggested these patches and I promptly bought them.

What a lifesaver! The first patch was put on without cleansing the skin, and probably, knowing me, while a little sweaty. It lasted about 10 days into the next 14-day sensor before it started peeling back.

I’m not a very active person so I didn’t worry about it until it literally was hanging off of me, so I gently took it off. For the next 24 hours I was very careful about where I was and how I moved around, but on the last 24 hours of the sensor, I pulled a shirt over my head and it came off with it! So, with the new sensor, I put the patch on right away, all against well cleaned skin.

The next day, while sitting at my desk, I reached up under the desk for something with the left arm, and had I not had on this patch I would have lost another sensor! I scraped the entire thing up against the underside of the desk! I felt it the second it happened and almost cried but there it was, still all attached, patch and all! Would I recommend these? Absolutely without hesitation.

I cannot tell you how they will hold up under “pressure” such as extreme athletic activity, and not so sure about swimming. But showering has not been a problem with it so far. My insurance pays nothing on these new sensors and having been a diabetic since 2005, I can tell you I would pay just about anything not to have to poke my fingers x4 every day for the rest of my life, but I would also like to keep the sensor safe, and this patch, if used correctly, will certainly do the job for you.

I have just started using the Libre sensor for glucose testing and I had a hard time keeping the first one on, from door jambs and clothing trying to rip it out. One did rip out and at their cost, it’s pricey to replace.

I bought these and used one on my second sensor and it’s been a dream. I don’t worry about getting dressed, sleeping, taking showers or just anything. At almost two weeks, it hasn’t even hinted at coming off and it makes a smooth overlay that doesn’t get hooked on things.

I have the purple color but that I don’t think matters. I’m about to take it off in two days, so if it gives me any problems. Right now, it’s worth the cost of these to save your sensor and make it last.

I have no problem with the app or monitor picking up the signal under the patch. I would highly recommend these adhesive patches to anyone using a sensor that needs protection from getting accidentally getting knocked off.

has an array of colors: beige, black, blue, brown and purple. I purchased my Simpatch on Amazon.

The Dexcom G6 is an absolutely tremendous product for diabetics. The only potential weak point is that the small ring of adhesive is not enough to last for 7-10days. Enter SimPatch. SimPatch solves this weakness by providing an overpatch that is three times wider than the Dexcom adhesive area and extends the effective use of the Dexcom unit to its full potential.

Great product that actually does what it says it will – what a pleasant surprise in this day and age!.

At first I was in love. the first patch I received was great. Stuck on great, awesome results in the morning. I washed it as instructed everyday and applied to a clean just washed area. Awesome. But month 2 patch was in different packaging and on the first wear attempt I could tell it was off.

it did not stay on- night 1. I washed and reused the next day like the prior month, and it only stayed stuck in the middle because throughout the night I kept pressing it back to my face. Inconsistencies from my first patch and second.

Bummer, I thought this was my “it” product. I have seen a number of other companies make the same product (silicone type collagen patch). I canceled my subscription and may try elsewhere. Great idea though.

It’s been really hard to store this since they have a supply chain issue with packaging. If you watch the video on how to clean and store this after use, the storage tray doesn’t exist anymore. They sent me a second one but the packaging still doesn’t contain the storage tray.

Probably won’t purchase again. There doesn’t seem to be a sanitary way to store it between uses.

I was a bit skeptical at first, but man this product didn’t disappoint. I purchased the forehead wrinkle patch and after 30min (testing it out) I seen a huge improvement. My second use was even better and I was amazed with how “sticky” the patch still was.

Even now at 20 uses, I’m completely sold and have now ordered the whole face mask set.

Adheres great IF directions followed. Be sure your material can withstand the heat of your iron set to cotton. Preheat your material and attach the patch. If the patch is larger than your iron, move the iron slowly while maintaining pressure from the center outward to the edges.

Worked for me.

Started coming off after 2 days and getting worse. I followed instructions and heated them well.

This adds months of use to your raggy Carhartts. If you apply from behind to repair a tear, lay the pants on wax paper first, so the glue doesn’t bond to the ironing surface.

Doesn’t work. I’m not sure what other are using this for, or what reference materials they have for comparison, but this stuff does not stick. Put it on and immediately pull it and it comes right off.

No better than scotch tape. Waited a while and tried again, peels right off. There are definitely extremely better products out there! Even heated it with a lighter to maybe get the sticky too grab the surface better.

Nope. You can see from the pic that there isn’t enough “glue” to do anything.

My favorite patches!! These help keep my Dexcom on all day. I’ve tried the patches from Dexcom didn’t like them at all. I’ve ordered the skin grip ones several times. The only complaint I have is the sticky residue that’s left over after removing the patch but I’d rather have that then it peel off sooner than I want.

I have tried these and also the prettier colors and shapes. Even though I have the Guardian 3 sensor, I will but these or whatever is a better cost to cover my sensor. They last pretty well even with showering.

Pools are tough and if these are submerged for a long time, naturally it will come off. Same for hot tubs.

I would like to get in different colors; beige or tan would be great. When you remove the paper back it easily sticks together

I bought this hoping that i wouldn’t have to sew on any more merit badges or find somebody to do it for. I love this stuff. All i did was put the badge down on the paper and trace it, cut it out. The only thing that sucks about this stuff is it is hard to peel the backing and front apart so that you can stick that badge to it.

once the backing is off, simply put the badge where you want it and press down with a spoon or something to that aspect. I highly recommend Badge Magic especially if you have a Cub Scout or Boy Scout in the family.

No more sewing.

Found this product a few years ago and it is a lifesaver! It is easy to use and holds up to washing and wear! Havent Had a single patch fall off yet! I highly recommend this product!

Badge Magic is definitely better than trying to sew or iron badges on. However, getting “stars” to completely stick is very difficult, because it’s hard to cut out the “points of the stars”.

I have very bad adhd. This patch helps keep me focused while at work. I use this alongside the energy patch. I highly recommend pairing these two patches for consistent focus and stamina to push through a very busy day.

I bartend at a restaurant for an incredibly busy brunch. No breaks just making drinks for the entire 8 hour shift. These patches give me I want I need to minimize mistakes and keeps a consistent mood and energy level.

I’m very happy with them. Thank you!.

I have been having serious issues focusing and these work amazing! I really like the idea of the transdermal patch and feel like I get more out of it than I do anything else I’ve tried. It has really given me something natural to use instead of using caffeine or things like that.

I’ve gotten a few other co-workers to use them and often give them out as recommendations if someone is having a “day”.

I forget I’m wearing the Focus patches sometimes. I’ll be working hard all day and by the time night rolls around, I’m shocked to find that I’m still incredibly into my work, wondering where all this energy, drive, motivation, etc comes from.

Then I remember the Patch is on the inside of my wrist. Compared to not wearing it, these things really really do work and keep me focused for longer.

This is a great patch compared to others that I have used. It has really good adhesion and doesn’t lift at the corners like my other patches. I have actually used this to patch my recliner saving me hundreds of dollars.

I had to use it to cover existing patches that lifted around the edges and corners. The color is also a perfect match for my recliner.

I tend to have blowouts in my elbows of my shirts. I bought these patches to reinforce two of my favorite shirts. They were casual shirts that had many years on them and were quite comfortable. I am sure these patches have a proper use but the adhesive was not of adequate quality to stay in place during washing and wearing once they had been applied.

It did not work for me. I think if you were going to so around the patch the edges will stay down and work long-term.

Product works as advertised. Set your iron to steam-free moderately high setting, preheat the fabric with your iron, apply the patch and hold under heat for about 15-20 seconds, and it’s finished. Simple to use.

It can be readily removed by reversing this process, and then wiping away any residual adhesive.

Pro Eye Patch is made to small for an adult. The patch is made of a flat piece of plastic with a foam seal to keep the patch from contacting the eye. Subsequently the foam lays on the eye, making it uncomfortable.

Overall size is to small. I cannot use it.

Item was ‘”as described.” It was well made and comfortable.

I’ll never sew another patch on my leather vest. I love this stuff !

I can confirm that badge magic works on ballistic and ripstop nylon as well, allowing me to affix badges on bags of said material.

I received one of these as a complementary gift when I checked into airport security through Clear. The front of the green patch identified it only as a “Relax” patch, with instructions to apply to the inside of the wrist for up to 12 hours if I wanted to “unwind and decompress.

” No ingredients were mentioned, unlike the sample shown in the stock photos on this site. I decided to try it the next night when I had insomnia. Well, I didn’t get to sleep for 3 hours and didn’t otherwise feel particularly relaxed.

Worse, when I removed it in the morning (after less than 9 hours of wear), I had an ugly, raised, uneven rash over about 25% of the skin that had been covered by the patch. It was incredibly itchy and I had trouble working all day because it was so distracting.

I don’t have latex allergies and have never had an allergic reaction to soap, lotions, oils, etc. (if I had, I wouldn’t have tried a patch with unknown ingredients). It is now a day later. The rash doesn’t itch any more and has now scabbed over.

To say that I don’t recommend this would be a vast understatement. I wish I could attach pics here.

I was very skeptical about this patch, I did not think it would have any effect, and would certainly not help me “relax”, but I was completely wrong. These patches are absolutely amazing! It helped my back and shoulders not feel so tense, and my mood all together went from anxious to laid back.

I feel like this patch is equivalent to a few cups of whine, without all the negative effects. I adore these patches! They stay on your body with no problem, and they are still very easy to remove when you are ready.

I did not break out or have any bad effects from these patches. I will definitely be purchasing more of these. And I’ve already told my friends about them.

I was really impressed by this patch. I was skeptical when I ordered it, but ended up pleasantly surprised. Within 10 minutes of sticking one to my wrist, I felt calmer. In about a half an hour, I felt truly relaxed.

The sense was fleeting, though. Unfortunately, I ended up having a stressful conversation while I was wearing the patch. It did not override the stressful feelings – hahaha! I wore the patch for about 4 hours.

I definitely felt results, even if it wasn’t the whole 4 hours. I’m looking forward to trying another patch. It did leave some residue on my wrist but it was gone in a couple of days.

Works great, but the price is a little much for me. Keeps my Dexcom on for the length it needs to but sometimes gets stuck on my fingers before application. I would looks at the cheaper ones on amazon though, they do the same thing.

Best patch out there. Highly recommended. Lasts for ~12 days before it starts peeling off. I love it

I got this to test 2 Freestyle Lite glucose monitors I had. I wondered if they were working ok. Both registered exactly the same – 91 – with this control solution, showing that they were both working well.

The “normal” range on the test strips is 76-114, which is printed on the test strip container. So 91 was in the middle of that range, and good.

It is necessary to check the accuracy of your meter and strips. I have a Freestyle Insulix Meter and so I use Freestyle Control Solution to do my periodic checks for accuracy. Do read the information sheet that comes with the two little bottles of the control solution.

Once you open one of the bottles there is a relatively short expiration date, be sure. you write that date (on the bottle itself) when you opened that little bottle for the first use.

The control solution is needed if you test tour blood glucose on a regular basis as I do. i have been checking blood for over 30 years. Where I have a problem is the company says you don’t need to, but why does the company manufacture the solution? So I check the meter whenever I open the strips.

I wouldn’t be without these patches. Prior to using them, I’d often catch my sensor and it would fall off. Also random people would ask ‘what’s that stuck on my arm’. As I’m heavily tattooed, I pick designs that blend in with my tattoo’s and now my sensor is very discreet.

The patches I purchased from Type One Style are absolutely spot on! They fit round my sensor like a glove, and you can apply with one hand no bother at all! They are lovely to wear and the designs are all amazing! Much better than previous patches I’ve purchased elsewhere which had too much stretch and it ended up looking like a melted welly boot! Type One Styles patches sit exactly as they were placed and don’t stretch so sit far better!.

I keep placing orders cause there’s so many designs I like!! I work out often and tend to find because I shower afterwards my patch will begin to peel after about 3 days. Apart from this they are really good!.

Easy to use. Instructions are very clear. Make sure you have a patch over it, because it can start to come off easily. Downside: Can only use it with the reader or the iPhone app, not both.

Freestyle libre has been a game changer when it comes to managing my diabetes. It’s so convenient and so discrete. I’m so happy I changed from the archaic finger sticks to my CGM.

These fabric stickers are amazing. I first needed a sticker like these to cover a hole in my new parka. I was amazed how fantastic it looked yet worked perfect and looked like it was always on my parka.

Then, a soaking wet branch got stuck in my car door as it was pouring. When I returned to my car I saw the branch it stained the fabric on the ceiling of my new car. I thought of the stickers and ordered two packs.

I used them to cover the stain from the tree branch. They’re so cute with the cute sayings. My car is happy and so am I. I love Natural Life ❤.

I have a very expensive down jacket that ended up getting a couple snags in it. It’s super comfy and I wanted to patch the holes and use it during outside work in the winter. I started looking for some patches and didn’t really care for anything.

When I was browsing Natural Life I found these adorable patches (for the hats). I bought them and sewed them over the holes. It looked so cute I added ore just for fun. Now it’s not only adorable, it’s unique and trendy! Love, love ,LOVE Natural Life ❤❤❤.

I don’t know where to start. I have purchased many items and don’t see myself stopping anytime soon. Myself and my granddaughters are boho girls. I’m 73 and delighted to find a company that fulfills my desired fashion sense.

Everything is well made from household to clothing. I’m a Natural Life fan forever.

If you puncture your great but expensive TPU tubes this really does work as a repair solution. Pirelli advised this kit is now suitable and it works. Bit fiddly and hold patch on for a good 5 mins with enough glue to hold edges.

Done over 300 miles on 2 repairs and holding fine (kiss of death!).

This patch kit for Turbolito is super easy to apply to a Turbolito tube. Unlike regular sticker type patches for regular rubber tubes these go one super easy. It includes some alcohol wipes which you use to clean the surface then apply oval patch.

Press flat for a while and done! No taking sand paper and roughing up surface, no patches wrinkling up and leaking air. The smooth surface Of the Turbolito tube makes it super easy to apply patch.

Used on a few occassions – never successfully despite very thorough cleaning in the dry, I’d imagine that you’d have no hope at all if it was wet and grimy. I gave up on the patches and the inner tubes.

Wanted the patch to work better than it did. Recycled material, more color options than Tenacious Tape, sounded great. Had an orange Gregory pack that needed a patch, couldn’t find orange Tenacious Tape, so went for the red Noso patch.

It looked relatively seamless against the orange which was great. I followed the instructions to the letter and it seemed to work initially, but started to peel up almost immediately the first time out.

Ended up peeling if off (easily) and replaced with a Tenacious Tape patch. Material of the Noso was also noticeably thinner and flimsier. If they made it a little stronger and stick better they would be great!.

My puffy was the first piece of “outdoor gear” i ever purchased for myself. It was a present and a promise to myself. I’ve had it four years now and it is starting to show wear from the amount of attention I give it.

This treasure of a product is great for addressing the small and large issues without being overkill. I love being able to use what i need and throw some personality in to it. A simple rectangle? done.

I lil heart? yes, please. It saves my puffy companion and me time and money wasted.

Love these! Been using them a few years now and never had a patch fail. Anyone who is giving this less than 5 stars bc it doesn’t look ‘good as new’. yeah ok. Buy a new coat bc it’s a patch not a magic wand.

I actually repaired a black puffer coat and no one ever noticed the patch nor could I find it easily when I looked for it. It’s better for us and our planet when we repair vs replace and this allows that with ease.

Have repaired gloves, coats, travel bags, and a few other things I can’t recall right now.
