These hydrogel pads are amazing. I'm keeping this jar in my kitchen, because I burn myself more often than I'd like to admit. They are super cool to the touch, and stay feeling moist and cool long after it's applied. They can easily be trimmed with scissors to fit smaller areas. They stick well to your skin, but peel off very easily, pain free, when ready to remove.
My only concern is the possibility of them drying out once opened. The tub is safety sealed, keeping the container air tight until it's opened. As the pads are not individually wrapped inside the tub, I think over time the gel may dry out. The label does say to keep the lid tightly closed to prevent drying. The lid does seem to have a tight fit. Only time will tell.
