Game-changing adhesive for colostomy care!

Topic Explanation:
The initial post shares a recommendation for a liquid adhesive called Skin Tac for colostomy care, highlighting its effectiveness in keeping the barrier on for almost two weeks without lifting or leaks.

Advice and Insights:
- Skin Tac is a game changer and a clear liquid that dries quickly, allowing for quicker pouch replacement with less chance of stoma messes.
- Skin Tac is a skin barrier that can be covered by insurance and contains alcohol. There are other brands that are cheaper and also work well, including some that are alcohol-free.
- Torbot Skin Tac wipes are highly recommended and have worked effectively for some individuals.
- It is important to change the appliance when needed, but the duration can vary based on individual circumstances.
- eBay can be a good source for finding ostomy supplies at a bargain, but it's essential to check expiration dates and communicate with sellers for any queries.
- Convenience is a factor when purchasing supplies through specific companies, but it's possible to find less expensive supplies elsewhere.
- Skin Tac adhesive is applied around the stoma, eliminating the need for paste or barrier rings.
