Do not buy this product

When the price is too good to be true, be wary. Instead, I was hopeful. Granted, I got this for free through Revain Vine, but I would have bought plenty of it if it turned out to be even halfway decent. I use 1-2 rolls of kinesiology tape a week and try to find a happy medium between price and tape quality. From my point of view, if you are dealing with a one-time issue or are applying it for, say, a marathon, buy the best your money can get you. But I have to tape up more than half my body six of seven days a week due to a complex connective tissue disease. And of course, insurance does not pay for it, even though it literally is saving my quality of life. Unfortunately, due to this illness, I've had a hard time working the hours to have enough money coming in each month. So. . .you get the picture.Long story short: This company has absolutely no business selling this tape. Judging from the other reviews, the adhesion properties of this tape are abysmal right across the board. The tape I normally purchase is about twice the price (which is a very low price already) and does generally last me four solid days of wear except in some hard wear spots. For those places, I do use high end tape.I did my weekly tape application early this morning. Two pieces started coming off almost immediately. Believe me, I know how to apply this stuff; I've been doing it since it first hit the American market. Since I knew in advance that the adhesion may be low, I applied a cream that is meant to create better adhesion and remove any excess oils without hurting the skin. No matter.At around four hours in, about half my applications had come off entirely, even ones in very low abrasion areas unless compression garments. That's absolutely as bad as it can be. It's now been twelve hours and not one piece of this tape has stayed on my skin. So, I didn't pay for it, but it takes me about two hours or more to do my weekly taping, and I need to enlist the help of my husband, who will not be pleased we will be doing it again tomorrow morning.Do not even think of purchasing this. Bonmedico, or whoever is selling this, please take it down from Revain. You might as well be selling blue masking tape to us who are suffering with pain.If I could give this a rating of "minus five stars" I would. This is simply the worst review I have ever written, and if I wasn't polite, I'd be cursing this company out for wasting my time, other peoples' money, and disrespecting the importance of the product they are selling. Tsk tsk, as my grandmother used to say.Enuf.
