Johnson & Johnson’s new Compeed brand, which is currently available in Europe, is making its way to the U.S. Compeed Blister Cushions will be available in U.S. Walgreens stores in September.      
  
Compeed Blister Cushions are the newest solution for protecting and cushioning blisters to avoid painful rubbing against shoes. According to J&J, the product uses hydrocolloid technology that fits like a second skin and stays on all day long, unlike ordinary bandages. The cushions also cover exposed nerve endings to relieve pain instantly and keep natural moisture in and germs out, allowing the skin to breathe and move.

J&J has also debuted Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandages featuring Star Wars. The bandages feature characters and scenes from the much-anticipated release of the movie Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens (out in December 2015). The boxes feature three unique facings of C3PO, R2D2, and a Stormtrooper, all with Darth Vader on the back.
