9 Surprisingly Fun Band-Aids (SUPER GALLERY)

Remember how much better your wound felt when mom put a fun band-aid on it as a kid? Why should adults deny themselves that same comfort? There are so many unique bandage designs on the market, there are designs for everyone. A burly man could make his paper cut go from looking like a booboo to a battle wound thanks to the very-male bacon band-aids (I don’t get the bacon obsession, it’s got to be a guy thing). A woman, on the other hand, can make an ugly slice on her delicate skin fun with fake puckered lips in funky colours, or really ritz it up with a gold, luxury adhesive, and geeks can show off their gadget savvy with the newest innovation in high tech bandages.
