They don't appear to be made of latex. "Not made with natural rubber latex," it says on the side and bottom of the box.
It's about the size of the front of a medium-sized person's palm, or slightly larger, and they're very big.
I haven't done any of that. In the shower is the only time. In a pool or the ocean, I'd be hesitant to use it.
Flesh was the color of the ones I bought.

Only give a product a rating. I didn't expect them to be waterproof when I bought them. I simply wanted to have more large bandages on hand, and these happened to be waterproof. When I was moving a freezer, I got a 3 inch cut on the palm of my hand. Given the unusual shape and flex of the palm, the bandage effectively covered the cut and held it in place. Every time I washed my hands throughout the day, I had to replace the bandage. Although the bandage surface is waterproof, the adhesive seal with the skin isn't perfect, so water will seep in. To improve the waterproofing, you'll probably need to add another layer of appropriate medical tape around the edges.
I have a large burn on my hand that runs from the side of my thumb to my wrist, and I was hoping that these would be better than gauze and tape. Because they're not waterproof, I used up an entire pack in a matter of hours after washing my hands frequently (because, you know, there's a global pandemic). If they were truly waterproof, that would be fantastic.
This was placed on top of a wound that needed to be kept dry. I showered, then went to remove it, only to find that the wound beneath it was completely soaked, aggravating it further. Not even close to being waterproof. I was let down.
Her toe was kept cleaner by the pads, which drew the blood away. I wrapped sticky sports wrap around the pad to keep her from getting to the bandage/pad. It was a huge success.
This is a fantastic product that does exactly what it should.
After one minute, the edges of the paper will begin to unstick. It is difficult to stick.
Excellent item.
