Worked in less than one month! Wart just fell off without a trace left!
My son had a huge planters wart on his thumb above the knuckle that was too close to the nail bed to freeze off. It would bleed profusely when knocked it and he was super embarrassed by it, so our pediatrician recommended this to get rid of it, but advised us that it could take up to 6 months to actually remove his wart…I was AMAZED by how easy it was and how FAST it worked! His wart just fell off about 3 weeks later, and you’d never know it was ever there looking at his thumb now!! We applied it daily after bath and covered with a bandaid after applying it. It was so easy, he could do it himself at only 4 years old (supervised of course)! I didn’t hold much hope that this product would actually work, so I was extremely impressed!!

Bye Bye Little Warty
It works if used every day until Warty McWartface peels off. Be careful not to put too much on or the goo will spread to healthy skin. No need to take the good skin off too. Use a q-tip or a lip brush for precision application, then cover the area with paper tape or a water-resistant band-aid.

It works! Just very slowly.
I bought this on April 12. Today it’s May 25. That’s how long it took for the wart to completely fall off. You need to apply this consistently, and daily. Everyone says to use duct tape but I just used bandages. I would apply 2-3x a day. Remember this is strong medication so stop using after the wart falls off. It works very slowly but it definitely works! If for whatever reason, a wart returns, I will be using this product again. Just requires patience!

It takes time, but works
I’ve had a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot for 4+ years that never went away or improved at all. I’ve tried it all; freeze, pads, gel, duct tape, you name it. None of those worked or even helped.I thought I’d be stuck with this wart forever.I saw this on amazon and saw the reviews so thought I’d give it a try. I’m glad I did.First of all, the easy application and no smell is the best part about this. It doesn’t dry up or have any chemical smell to it at all.This also showed results the fastest of any product. I started by just rubbing it onto the wart area and covering with a bandaid twice a day. While this works, I eventually found it better to use a toothpick and apply it more accurately onto the wart to avoid damage to surrounding skin.I used a pumice stone and removed dead skin with a knife. If you do this, just be careful you aren’t digging at the wart area to avoid pain and bleeding.It was great to see progress. It does take time for the severe plantar warts, but keep at it.I started to think even with this product the wart wouldn’t go away but after a month and a half of consistent use, mine is almost unnoticeable. I don’t have to hide my bare foot anymore!I’m still going to continue to use this to get rid of it completely, but wanted to say it does work and I’m so happy that I can finally be bare foot again without constantly hiding my foot.

I had gotten this as a last resort because I was going to the dermatologist for my stubborn warts and getting shots in my foot to help them go away and they wouldn’t budge. You have to stay consistent with this product but my warts are completely gone I couldn’t believe it.

Simply works. Only solution I’ve found.
I have tried many techniques on my deep plantar warts of 15 years. Applying this cream regularly worked more effectively than multiple trips to doctor and podiatrist. I am completely cured.Two very important notes I’ve found:1.) You must cut or clip away the dead skin to allow the cream to reach the active area. But always dead; not necessary to cut to the point of pain or drawing blood. Just keep clipping & reapplying the cream.2.) You will reach a skin layer where the cream will no longer penetrate & you can’t clip anymore, but the wart will still be there. You will think you’ve failed & give up. Keep applying the cream for ~two more weeks to be sure but then stop, forget about it and move on. Miraculously after a month or two the wart will disappear. The cream killed the roots but your skin has to push it out as it regrows skin cells which can take a couple months.I cured 4 wart compound plantar wart sites on pads of both feet using this technique. The first time I thought it was a fluke but then it worked the same way consistently each time.

Wow!
My 11-year-old son has an auto-immune disease that makes it easy for the warts virus to spread on his skin, so when one large wart popped up on his hand it quickly turned into 30 or more tiny and mid-size warts all over his palm and fingers. As you can imagine, this embarrassed him and he would keep his hand hidden at all costs. We tried Clear Away bandages, but they wouldn’t stay on his palm. I did some research on wart products and found Wart Stick. It was inexpensive, so we gave it a shot. We had to apply the Wart Stick and wrap his entire hand in medical tape every night before bed for a few months (he was too embarrassed to wear it during the day). It is very easy to spread across the skin. The small warts would quickly go away, while the larger ones with deep roots took longer, but once the larger ones were gone, the smaller ones stopped appearing. My son is beyond thrilled to have his hand back to normal, and I’m ecstatic that this product worked. It took time, so don’t give up if you don’t get overnight success. It’s worth the effort.

So far it’s been working pretty well for my little ones warts. We have been doing the duck tape method and it’s been working well! The only con so far it the facts it’s really hard so it’s a bit hard to apply on sensitive skin

Worth it!
I had a very stubborn and ugly wart on my thumb last May that troubled me for like a year and it was so bad that I considered for surgical removal. So I did quite a bit research for removal options and tried a few of them, but none were successful. I found this wart removal product from research and was rather skeptical about it. Before trying this, I didn’t give it much high expectations and thought that it would be just like other product that I tried which all failed. But then, again, it only like $8, what could I loose if I failed, but if I succeed I can saved myself from the mess of surgery.From the memory of last May:I applied the wart wax on my thumb with a bandage over to keep it sealed and let the substances get into the wart. The first few day, I got result that looked like previous product that I tried. The area around the wart was white and water-puffed, the edge was lifted up but the wart was still hard to rip it off. I remembered my thumb felt numb and some pricks. Nothing worse than it had been.I continued. I think it was around the 6th day of applications, I started seeing dramatic differences, the wart was departing which I ripped it of. After the wart piece was gone, I applied for a few more days to ensure I had it kill completely. I was able to get ride of my wart about 10 days of applications.I recommended to apply only wart affected area because this product contained very high percentage of wart killing substance, it will burn/kill of skin.Overall, I am very happy that this worked out for me.

It Works!!
This product is Amazing!! I tried just about everything to treat a wart that I got on my finger and then spread to the connecting finger ,the inside of my thumb,my pinky finger and lastly the middle finger of my other hand. I hated for people to see my hands! The worst 2 I would cover with a band-aid. I googled self treatment and salicylic acid kept popping up. I saw this stick had this acid. End of story… It took about 5 or 6 days and they started to turn color..3 days later,pretty much gone.

Works Wonders
After going to the dermatologist multiple times to treat my daughters warts they did nothing but take my money. We tried over the counter freezing products, natural remedies, at home remedies etc etc. Nothing worked until I came across this product on Amazon. This products works miracles. My daughters warts are all gone after using this product after only one month. It’s not expensive neither. I highly recommend using this product & it’s really easy to use also.

It works.. be patient! 10 days and wart is gone.
Had a planters wart pop up on the heel of my foot. Checked reviews on several different products and decided to give this a try and am so glad I did.I read the reviews of others, saying to be patient and use daily after soaking your foot.Here’s what I did:1. Soak feet in water/take a bath.2.Dry completely.3. After a few days the skin will peel where you apply the product. Scrape dead skin back after it starts peeling so the medicine can pentrate to the root. Your skin will peel like crazy on the area the medicine touches.4. Use Q-tip to get a scoop of the product from the chapstick like formula. I didn’t want to apply directly to the foot as that would spread the virus to the medicine in my opinion.5. Put the product thick on top of the wart.6..Apply loose bandaid over. (I used the cloth bandaid at first and switched to the waterproof kind and did not like these as much as my foot was a bit sore because I scraped too deep one day and the cloth kind offered more flexibility and cushion.)After 3 or so days I noticed my skin started turning white and peeling. So I used a tiny sharp pair of scissors to just scrape away the dead skin and clip. Layer by layer, day by day it got closer and closer to the root of the wart. I got a little rushed about a week in thinking the root was close enough to pull out and used tweezers and wound up bleeding everywhere and making it sore for a few days..Be patient! Keep applying and scraping back the dead skin and by day ten while I scraped the dead skin back the root of the wart scraped off with ease!Now the skin around the area is all new skin and pink. I will continue to use a few more days just to be certain the virus is completely dead.If you are patient this stuff really works. Just keep applying, don’t start digging at it just let the medicine do it’s work and scape the dead skin so the medicine can get down to the root.

Effective
Spot application is difficult unless you use a tool to apply it to the wart. I found you must cover the treated area with a bandaid to ensure effectiveness. It takes time to kill the wart. Unfortunately I had to stop using it because I developed an allergic reaction to it after 6 weeks, but it was taking a toll on the wart. I will have to find another product to finish the wart.

I’ve had a large wart on my finger that looks like a big callous for 30 years! I’ve had it treated several times at the dermatologist office, but it never goes away just keeps coming back. At my last visit my dermatologist recommended this product to treat it at home, so I bought it. In two weeks time that ridiculous wart is gone! It is painless, easy and I’m just really impressed.

Incredible stuff!!
I was quite surprised how well this worked. I’ve never had a wart before and didn’t even know what it was until I asked my daughter to look at my toe. It took only three weeks. And, to answer the question, “Does it hurt?” I would say that my toe felt ‘weird’ for the first couple of days. But it did not hurt. After a few days I was completely unaware of any sensation. For the first 10 days I used a bandage after each daily application, but after that I just applied the stick and wore sandals.

This stick is MAGIC
Whoa. I have had the occasional wart every 2-3 years since I was a child. I’ve used the little brown medicine ‘tabs’ under band aids, duct tape, the freeze off kit, the brush on kind, even got them frozen off at the doctor. They all take a long time to get rid of the wart. I have a new wart about the size of a pinhead on my index finger that is painful. I saw someone recommend this in another review and I thought… huh here’s one I haven’t tried yet. Holy crap! Just got it in the mail yesterday around 3pm. Put it on right away and left it covered until about 2pm. Just soaked it and prepared to reapply. The wart came out!!! I now have a little crater where the wart was. I am shocked. Less than 24 hours. Never in the history of my wart journey has this happened. I am going to continue applying to be sure it’s gone, but I highly recommend!!!!!

I work in a medical facility taking x rays. …
I work in a medical facility taking x rays. I developed a wart on my distal third finger, which a doctor I work with noticed. He was an Emergency Room doc for many, many years – he explained to me that warts heal from the inside out, and to treat a wart, all we do is irritate the ever lovin’ snot out of it. We freezed it a few times, with sort of meh results.Research led me to thinking that if I could do a controlled burn on it, that would surely irritate the hell out of to get it to heal. This thing did that quite well, very inexpensively. Please be careful with it! Apply only to the wart, as it can damage the surrounding skin. Leave it on overnight with a bandaid for 3 or 4 consecutive nights, more if needed. You can use a nail file to remove the damaged skin if you want to. This thing does the trick, and it’s a lot cheaper than seeking expensive care. It will probably take a couple weeks post treatment for the wart to really heal internally and the skin to go back to normal – sometimes you just have to give the body time to heal – this was my case – however, now I’m healed up and it looks and feels entirely normal.

Very slow to work
Compared to products like Compound W Maximum Strength Fast Acting Liquid Wart Remover, this will take 10x longer to remove most warts. It is less harsh and might be best used in sensitive skin locations, but it still took forever just to see noticeable improvement. So I used the more painful Compund W on my sensitive skin areas for the first week and then used this as a follow up treatment for the next 30 days to ensure no return.

Actually works
Normally don’t write reviews, but I have to for this. It actually works. I’ve had a wart on my foot for over a year now. At first it was minor, I thought it would go away. Then it spread to another spot (small) and another (also small) and I started to try some treatments. Mostly tried Compound D and various bandaid-like pads, which would kill layers of skin and seem effective, but never enough to actually start making progress towards sustained healing. This stuff did. Partially, I think it’s just that its way, way easier to use on the underside of the foot (doesnt shift while walking). I just put it on in the morning, put socks over it, and go about my day. When I remember during the day, I put on another layer. Pretty simple, and after a couple weeks the two smaller spots are fully healed and the other is a couple days away. Pretty amazing, highly recommend.

USE with 3M TRANSPORE MEDICAL TAPE
Another review mentioned using the surgical/ medical “3M Transpore” tape to cover the warts treated with wartstick to prevent the treatment from transferring onto healthy skin; it’s also MUCH cheaper than bandaids and sticks really well, even on sweaty/ moist skin.I had multiple warts in-between and on the tips of three of my smaller toes, which 1) toes are an extremely hard area of the body to find a wart treatment that works and 2) my hands and feet tend to get really sweaty.Wartstick plus the 3M Transpore tape worked WONDERS. It’s super fast and easy to use, I’d just apply at night after I showered and in the morning, remove the tape and wash with soap. 10/10 would recommend!

Hesitant? Worth it. Buy this. From experience.
This beats all other wart products out of the water. I’ve tried Compound products & they didn’t work. This removed my wart in 1 week! It’s powerful stuff. If you have a wart, & want it gone fast. This. is. it. I used used it once a day for 1 week. I applied the product at night, wrapped it in a band-aid & then air out during the day. The only downside minor thing, is the size. It is the size of a chapstick. I needed more precision. I used a toothpick to grab the product & place directly on my wart, easy no problem.

My Wort is Gone! Yey!
This product really works! It’s easy to use. I applied it at night and covered it with a bandaid. In the morning I took the bandage off and the skin would be very soft. So I let it dry out all day and file away the dead skin. It took a little over a month, but it was totally worth it! My wort is completely gone. Highly recommend!

Actually works!!
I tried everything to get rid of my plantar warts. Cryotherapy, Candida beetle stuff, stinky liquid salicylic acid didn’t do anything but cause pain and discomfort. I saw the review that the other person posted about putting a sock over it while I sleep after applying wart stick and it’s been two long months but it did the trick. I might have sped or hindered the process as I used a pedicure razor kit to cut the wart out at the same time. Seriously years of having these on my foot. Like 5 of them and this stuff knocked them out.

The only wart remover you should consider
I’ll admit it, when I saw this little chapstick looking thing I was skeptical, but the reviews convinced me to try. Here’s the deal, I have had a nasty planters wart since at least 2018 (don’t judge me). I tried some of that liquid stuff and had a consultation with a podiatrist but never had it taken care of. This little tube is magic! Put it on the wart and cover with duct tape for a couple weeks and your wart does not stand a chance. Unfortunately for Wally the wart, he is being evicted. But seriously you should buy this.

2 year wart is on its way out
I’ve had stubborn plantar warts for over 2 years. I’m very active so the wart remover pads I’d been using before never worked and constantly slid around. With this wart stick, I’ve been applying several times a day and covering with duct tape and within a week, all that is left is a hole. I know it’s not totally healed yet, but the progress I’ve made is consistent and rapid, and my activity level hasn’t hindered it. If you are like me and walk many miles daily, the wart stick is what you need. Do not waste your time with the wart pads that you stick on, they simply move around and destroy the skin around the wart rather than the wart— and this extra skin breakdown can make it easier for your pre existing warts to spread into new areas.

Incredibly Impressed- Wart is Gone
I have had a plantar wart where my big toe meets my foot for years. I have had it frozen at the dermatologist at least once, but it never fully went away and came right back to the size it was (and that was painful nitrogen!). I wanted to try this before summertime, since I knew I would have to cover the area with a bandage. I bought this in mid March and used it until the beginning of June. I initially used it for at least a month, when I thought the wart might be gone, but I wasn’t sure. After a few days, I could tell it was still there, so I felt like I had to start the process all over again. But after I stuck with it, the wart actually did disappear. I waited weeks to write this review because I was sure it would come back, but it has not.At the beginning, I would just apply it straight to my foot, but because my wart was smaller than the applicator, it started killing off too much skin, so I then used a toothpick to scrape off some medication and apply it that way, as others have said in their reviews. That was a much better way to target it. It didn’t disrupt the skin too much (plus, it’s on the underside of my foot, so it’s not like it would matter), and I don’t have a sore spot like I did when the wart was there. My process was to shower before bed, let myself dry for a couple minutes, apply the medication, cover it with a bandage, and leave that on until the next shower. It was a slow process for sure, but it definitely worked, and I’m really impressed with this product! would always try this instead of going to a dermatologist for a wart from now on. Be patient, and it will help!

Review for a friend
This thing works, which a friend told me (not me, I don’t have warts). My friend (not me) said that using this for two weeks, combined with duct tape, cleared up a painful plantar wart. The package was easy to open, my friend reported. He was a little concerned that the tube does look like chapstick, so best to keep away from kids. He didn’t want to write a review because he was embarrassed. Never had a wart myself, but if I did, I’d use this. Just to reiterate, I don’t have any warts.

Is the stick still effective?
Salicylic acid loses it’s potency over time so the products containing this acid need to have an expiration date on them for consumers.

This product worked amazing. I had a wart on the palm of my hand for about 2 years and after using this product for roughly two weeks it instantly went away. Been wart free ever since. It’s very easy to apply just remove the cap and apply the product directly to wart. After that you dont really have to do anything. Just give it time to heal and go away.

First product that has consistently worked for me!
I had 2 warts on my hand, one on my ring finger and one on my thumb. The one on my ring finger had only been there for a few months but the one on my thumb had been there for over 5 years and no matter what I did, I couldn’t seem to get that one to go away. When I started using this stuff, the wart on my ring finger peeled off within 2 weeks. The one on my thumb took me about 3 and a half months and 2 additional tubes of this stuff, but it appears that I have finally been able to get this wart to go away. Depending on the stubbornness of the wart, this stuff can work super quick or it can take a while. Either way, it’s nice to have something actually work on the stubborn one! Before this product, I had used compound w, freeze off, duct tape, you name it but none of them worked. This stuff though actually did wonders and I was finally able to get rid of a wart that had been there for 5 years and showed no sign of going away beforehand! I most definitely recommend this stuff! You just need to make sure you have patience throughout the process!

Works!
After about thirty five years since my last childhood plantar wart, I was struck by two throughout 2021. The first was on the tip of one of my toes, and the second (which didn’t appear until after treatment was complete on the first) was on the ball of my foot. I was skeptical that a topical was going to successfully treat the first wart, as all my childhood plantar warts were treated in a doctor’s office by freezing or burning. I was pleasantly surprised that this worked! I applied to the wart twice daily, and covered with a bandage to keep the topical in place. For my first wart, the smallest, I had results in about two weeks of consistent use. For my second wart, the larger, it took longer. The second wart took about a month of consistent use. A single wart stick was sufficient for both. Though I have scars from the clinical treatment of my childhood warts, the one I treated with wart stick have barely left a mark. If I have the misfortune of getting another plantar wart, I will likely turn to this product first.

Best OTC wart product out there
This wart stick is magic. My daughter had one wart- we tried the freeze off stuff and the medicated bandages. Alas, that did not work and suddenly her foot was covered. I was *this close* to making a pediatric podiatrist appointment, but decided to give this stuff a go. She is 9, and was able to handle the wart treatment herself. She would apply a thin layer of the wart stick (don’t mix it up with your chapstick!) and put a sock over at bed time, and most mornings would do the same. As some of the dead skin would bubble up, she used a pumice stone in the shower to clear it off before applying more. We purchased this early April, the before photo above was actually taken after a few days of treatment and here we are mid June completely clear. This became a part of her self care routine and it worked beautifully. We also still have plenty left, a thin layer is all it takes. I highly recommend giving this a try.

Worked on Deep Plantar Wart, Requires Time + Consistency
I had a very large, deep, heavily calloused plantar wart directly on the bottom of the ball of my foot for 15 years. I had multiple liquid nitrogen treatments at doctor’s offices, at-home freeze kits, salves, gels, duct tape, you name it. In fact, my doctor basically told me I should learn to live with it since it seemed untreatable. This product ended up being what worked. That being said, I have some things to note for people using/considering this product:1) CONSISTENCY IS KEY: I used this product for over a year, every day before my wart was completely gone. Prior to that, I had used it on and off and it wasn’t effective. So if you have a beast of a wart like mine, be prepared to make this a long-term part of your routine. For me, the commitment paid off. My foot looks perfect now.2) PREP YOUR FOOT: This seems to work best on a calloused area straight out of the shower when your skin is still soft. I also used a callus shaver to remove the top layer of dead skin each time I reapplied. This allows the product to have closer contact with the wart itself instead of your callused skin.3) USE A LOT: This is probably not recommended by the manufacturer, but given the size and depth of my wart, I would actually take a tweezers and “shave” off a thin layer of the product, put it directly on/in the wart, then apply bandaids. Swiping it like you would a chapstick didn’t seem to leave enough for me.

It works.. be patient! 10 days and wart is gone.
Had a planters wart pop up on the heel of my foot. Checked reviews on several different products and decided to give this a try and am so glad I did.I read the reviews of others, saying to be patient and use daily after soaking your foot.Here’s what I did:1. Soak feet in water/take a bath.2.Dry completely.3. After a few days the skin will peel where you apply the product. Scrape dead skin back after it starts peeling so the medicine can pentrate to the root. Your skin will peel like crazy on the area the medicine touches.4. Use Q-tip to get a scoop of the product from the chapstick like formula. I didn’t want to apply directly to the foot as that would spread the virus to the medicine in my opinion.5. Put the product thick on top of the wart.6..Apply loose bandaid over. (I used the cloth bandaid at first and switched to the waterproof kind and did not like these as much as my foot was a bit sore because I scraped too deep one day and the cloth kind offered more flexibility and cushion.)After 3 or so days I noticed my skin started turning white and peeling. So I used a tiny sharp pair of scissors to just scrape away the dead skin and clip. Layer by layer, day by day it got closer and closer to the root of the wart. I got a little rushed about a week in thinking the root was close enough to pull out and used tweezers and wound up bleeding everywhere and making it sore for a few days..Be patient! Keep applying and scraping back the dead skin and by day ten while I scraped the dead skin back the root of the wart scraped off with ease!Now the skin around the area is all new skin and pink. I will continue to use a few more days just to be certain the virus is completely dead.If you are patient this stuff really works. Just keep applying, don’t start digging at it just let the medicine do it’s work and scape the dead skin so the medicine can get down to the root.

Amazing product!!
I never right reviews for a product but this product deserves my highly favorable review. I am alsways skeptical of using a product like this and relying on other online reviews, but this product deserves your attention and consideration. I had had warts on the bottom of my foot for years. Treated by a podiatrist at great expense that never resulted in the death of the wart. We tried shrinking the wart, but it always grew back. He then only offered me surgical removal. The wart was the size of a nickel. I decided that I had nothing to lose to try this product. It took a while-probably give the size and depth, but I can honestly say that the wart is now completely gone. This is a product that anyone with a wart should try because the results are amazing, and cheaper and less invasive than dealing with a podiatrist. I highly recommend this product to anyone.

It really works!
I’ve had a troublesome plantar wart on the palm side of my right middle finger, right in the seam of the top knuckle where it bends, for 2 years. I’ve tried a bunch of things, the nail polish type acid, some fancy prescription from the doctor, I’ve had it frozen off 3 different times, but most of the time when it got to be too big and annoying I would just clip it off and go about my day. Then someone suggested this product and swore by it. I was of course skeptical but for the low price it was worth the try. My wart is finally gone! It took using it at night every night for only 10 days! I would roll some on it right before bed and cover it with a band aid. Get up the next morning, wash my hands and just leave it uncovered to dry up during the day. It did have a little pain with bending it the first couple days and then by day 4 it was taking off quite a bit of the healthy skin around it and also causing some discomfort with use only because it was on my dominant hand. But after that 10 days it was gone! I had to wait for the skin to heal and dry up and it’s been 2 weeks and there isn’t a single sign that it’s going to come back! Definitely worth the try if you’ve been trying everything else!

For best results, use medical grade bandages (the ones from hospitals)
This is definitely an item of mixed results depending on what bandage you use and the severity of your wart and the location.For small warts (less than an inch), it takes a few weeks for it to go away.For anything bigger than an inch. You do not want anything porus, and just really need to get something that’s air tight to bandage and suffocate the wart with the medicine. I used over the counter bandaids, scotch tape, duck tape, various clothlike bandages, and despite it showing the blackening and peeling you’ll associate it with the medicine to be working (usually a month or so)… the wart will grow back. Any hint of air, seems to reinvigorate it’s life, so don’t peel/clip the surrounding dry skin, it’s tempting and you would think that it’s finally gone it will even look like it, but you’re wrong. It will come back a little bit bigger. The shedding skin will even act as another barrier to help suffocate it if you just leave it alone.For the best results that works: You must get medical grade bandages that hospitals use to hold IV tubes (they’re clear, somewhat thick, adhesive will forever stick onto you unless you peel it off, waterproof, and will get stickier with heat ) apply a good amount of the wart stick medicine and keep that sucker bandaged 24/7 for at least 2 months. As mentioned before it takes about a month for it to darken and slightly peel and 1 more month to be sure it’s gone for good.It took me a year to get rid of a recurring wart on my foot, a few weeks for the speck on the finger, and a few months on one that’s not as big as the recurring one, also foot.

2 year wart is on its way out
I’ve had stubborn plantar warts for over 2 years. I’m very active so the wart remover pads I’d been using before never worked and constantly slid around. With this wart stick, I’ve been applying several times a day and covering with duct tape and within a week, all that is left is a hole. I know it’s not totally healed yet, but the progress I’ve made is consistent and rapid, and my activity level hasn’t hindered it. If you are like me and walk many miles daily, the wart stick is what you need. Do not waste your time with the wart pads that you stick on, they simply move around and destroy the skin around the wart rather than the wart— and this extra skin breakdown can make it easier for your pre existing warts to spread into new areas.

Works great
Adhere to the directions. If you apply daily after shower or bath, make sure you have washed and the area is completely dry before application of the product. Also, make sure to cover with a bandage.I spent $90 going to the dermatologist and having one wart removed through freezing twice. The freezing never removed the wart. After 3 weeks of using this product my wart is gone. I hope you have the same success as I have experienced.

Works!
After about thirty five years since my last childhood plantar wart, I was struck by two throughout 2021. The first was on the tip of one of my toes, and the second (which didn’t appear until after treatment was complete on the first) was on the ball of my foot. I was skeptical that a topical was going to successfully treat the first wart, as all my childhood plantar warts were treated in a doctor’s office by freezing or burning. I was pleasantly surprised that this worked! I applied to the wart twice daily, and covered with a bandage to keep the topical in place. For my first wart, the smallest, I had results in about two weeks of consistent use. For my second wart, the larger, it took longer. The second wart took about a month of consistent use. A single wart stick was sufficient for both. Though I have scars from the clinical treatment of my childhood warts, the one I treated with wart stick have barely left a mark. If I have the misfortune of getting another plantar wart, I will likely turn to this product first.

Is the stick still effective?
Salicylic acid loses it’s potency over time so the products containing this acid need to have an expiration date on them for consumers.

Really works!
I had a wart on my finger for over 2 years! With an autoimmune and treatment that impairs healing, I had tried so many things – professional treatment (which actually made it worse!), homeopathic, wives’ tales, you name it. I decided to try this – since it was 40% salicylic instead of 17%. Stronger, yet not near as painful as the professional treatment I tried. I loved that you could put it on exactly where needed – and this thing was huge! I had to do it in sections – but it is gone! I have worn a bandaid for 2 years. No more!

PAINLESS PRODUCT W/ HIGHLY EFFECTIVE RESULTS–REMOVED 2 YO PLANTAR IN < 2 WKS!!
This is by far the most effective, efficient & painless product I have used yet (from freezing to liquid salicylic acid OTC preps). For years, I had only one plantar that remained very small; I would mindlessly just pick it off in the shower on an intermittent basis (and luckily prevented the virus from spreading for ~2yrs). However, 1.5 yrs ago, I decided to finally treat it w/ an OTC liquid. Naturally, rather than successfully treating the wart, I only ended up with more, and the more I tried to treat those, the more they just seemed to keep spreading, especially on my hands. Gross. Freezing treatments (Dr Scholl’s, Wartner & Compound W) were not only rather painful but all fell very short. With the exception of DuoFilm, all of the liquid formulas dried up in 1-2 wks, took forever to dry, had potent fumes & were all utterly unsuccessful. DuoFilm was by far the most successful until finding this product, but after 6 mo & 1.5 bottles, I wanted to try and find something w/ a higher concentration of salicylic acid to speed things along. Well, this product is AMAZING, PAINLESS (but be sure to take the time every time to use a toothpick or q-tip for application so as to only apply on only the wart & limited surrounding area), DRY & most importantly, EFFECTIVE w/out having to spend a lot of time or $$. No more potent fumes, long drying periods or waiting months for successful permanent removal. I have used WartStick 1x every single day, like clockwork. Results have been fantastic! My very first, oldest & most stubborn plantar (for the first time ever) was finally removed in its entirety by the 11th treatment! I treated it a few more times to be sure, but it’s gone! I started w/ the 3 plantars (all gone now). Recently, I started treating the several barely visible common ones on my hands. After just 2-6 treatments, they are gone!! I cannot imagine a better product. Just apply (enough to cover clean skin w/ wart & limited surrounding area), cover w/ waterproof adhesive tape & forget about it/them until the next treatment! I even noticed the treated areas do not even look scarred. The underlying skin layers are looking pretty good, especially compared to past results. VERY IMPRESSED & HAPPY!

I had gotten this as a last resort because I was going to the dermatologist for my stubborn warts and getting shots in my foot to help them go away and they wouldn’t budge. You have to stay consistent with this product but my warts are completely gone I couldn’t believe it.

Works Wonders
After going to the dermatologist multiple times to treat my daughters warts they did nothing but take my money. We tried over the counter freezing products, natural remedies, at home remedies etc etc. Nothing worked until I came across this product on Amazon. This products works miracles. My daughters warts are all gone after using this product after only one month. It’s not expensive neither. I highly recommend using this product & it’s really easy to use also.

BUY THIS FOR PLANTAR WARTS!!!!
I cannot recommend this product enough. I had stubborn plantar warts on the bottom of my foot for YEARS. Multiple trips to the doctor did nothing and wart products from the drug store were useless. This completely cleared them up. It’s been months and they are still fully gone. You have to be persistent. I applied and bandaged twice per day, and it took a few months for the warts to be completely gone, but it did work. It breaks through the callouses and it is gross when the skin peels off but that’s the only way to get to a plantar wart. This product is 10/10.

Hesitant? Worth it. Buy this. From experience.
This beats all other wart products out of the water. I’ve tried Compound products & they didn’t work. This removed my wart in 1 week! It’s powerful stuff. If you have a wart, & want it gone fast. This. is. it. I used used it once a day for 1 week. I applied the product at night, wrapped it in a band-aid & then air out during the day. The only downside minor thing, is the size. It is the size of a chapstick. I needed more precision. I used a toothpick to grab the product & place directly on my wart, easy no problem.

Only product that actually works!
I had a stubborn wart for 18 months. 4-5 visits to the dermatologists. $100+ dollars spent on salicylic acid and bandaids. I visited a different dermatologist, and he recommended something with 40% strength. I bought the WartStick and my wart was finally gone after about a 4-6 weeks of use. Such a relief!

Impressive
I have had these flat, sprawling, grainy warts on my hands for literally years. I have tried everything. I’ve gone to the dermatologist. I’ve had them burned off. I’ve used every kind of wart medication. I’ve covered them with duct tape. So when I bought this product, I wasn’t expecting much, but it really works! It took about two weeks. At first, I thought it was making it worse so if this happens to you just be patient. And then suddenly after about two weeks, it just started disappearing. I am very very impressed.

Saved me !!
I never experienced a corn on my toe before. I was hoping it would heal itself, but as time went on it became more and more painful! This was my last resort before going to see a doctor, luckily it saved me! I used twice a day and it was nearly gone in a week. I continued use for 2 weeks for good measure. Still have plenty leftover—Highly Recommended!!

Thos product is amazing
I bought this for my 9 year old after her doctor recommended it. She had 2 warts one on her finger and one on the bottom of her toe. After 3 or 4 applications her warts disappeared. It has been several months and so far they have not returned. This product t is super easy to use and no burning or numbness like the other treatments. My 9 year old applied it herself. She said it was like putting lipstick on her finger and toe.

Better than the big name wart bandages
I had been using that big names wart remover bandages for a few weeks. It was doing some damage to my wart and unfortunately the healthy skin around it too. I was not happy about that. I bought this stick so I could apply the treatment to the wart only. I’ve been using this for a few weeks, and only skin on the wart has taken a hit. It’s great too because I can use my favorite bandages instead of being stuck with whatever those other pads are attached too. My only wish is that the product was round at the tip of the applicator. It would have made it a little easier to apply.

Great Plantar Wart Remover
This wart stick is the greatest !!!!!! I have had a plantar wart on one of my feet for 30 years., and I have had it “removed” 4 times at a doctor office, paid out sums of money and finally realizing it was still there BUT I ordered this wart stick to try since it wasn’t breaking the bank to purchase it and after 3 weeks, I am very happy to say, the damn plantar wart is FINALLY GONE FOR GOOD !!!!!!! I filed down the plantar wart with a pumice stone then applied the wart stick to it, then covered it with duct tape and every other day, I would repeat the steps. My foot is so smooth, it doesn’t hurt anymore and it is great to actually live without a plantar wart again !!!!!I am so skeptical about everything but this wart stick actually works !!!!!!!!!!

Wow!
My 11-year-old son has an auto-immune disease that makes it easy for the warts virus to spread on his skin, so when one large wart popped up on his hand it quickly turned into 30 or more tiny and mid-size warts all over his palm and fingers. As you can imagine, this embarrassed him and he would keep his hand hidden at all costs. We tried Clear Away bandages, but they wouldn’t stay on his palm. I did some research on wart products and found Wart Stick. It was inexpensive, so we gave it a shot. We had to apply the Wart Stick and wrap his entire hand in medical tape every night before bed for a few months (he was too embarrassed to wear it during the day). It is very easy to spread across the skin. The small warts would quickly go away, while the larger ones with deep roots took longer, but once the larger ones were gone, the smaller ones stopped appearing. My son is beyond thrilled to have his hand back to normal, and I’m ecstatic that this product worked. It took time, so don’t give up if you don’t get overnight success. It’s worth the effort.

My daughter had warts for years. We saw a pediatric dermatologist twice to have them frozen off, but even that didn’t work. The pediatric dermatologist recommended I use this after seeing her the second time. We used this around 1 month and I’m happy to say all of her warts are gone.

Worked in less than one month! Wart just fell off without a trace left!
My son had a huge planters wart on his thumb above the knuckle that was too close to the nail bed to freeze off. It would bleed profusely when knocked it and he was super embarrassed by it, so our pediatrician recommended this to get rid of it, but advised us that it could take up to 6 months to actually remove his wart…I was AMAZED by how easy it was and how FAST it worked! His wart just fell off about 3 weeks later, and you’d never know it was ever there looking at his thumb now!! We applied it daily after bath and covered with a bandaid after applying it. It was so easy, he could do it himself at only 4 years old (supervised of course)! I didn’t hold much hope that this product would actually work, so I was extremely impressed!!

My Wort is Gone! Yey!
This product really works! It’s easy to use. I applied it at night and covered it with a bandaid. In the morning I took the bandage off and the skin would be very soft. So I let it dry out all day and file away the dead skin. It took a little over a month, but it was totally worth it! My wort is completely gone. Highly recommend!

USE with 3M TRANSPORE MEDICAL TAPE
Another review mentioned using the surgical/ medical “3M Transpore” tape to cover the warts treated with wartstick to prevent the treatment from transferring onto healthy skin; it’s also MUCH cheaper than bandaids and sticks really well, even on sweaty/ moist skin.I had multiple warts in-between and on the tips of three of my smaller toes, which 1) toes are an extremely hard area of the body to find a wart treatment that works and 2) my hands and feet tend to get really sweaty.Wartstick plus the 3M Transpore tape worked WONDERS. It’s super fast and easy to use, I’d just apply at night after I showered and in the morning, remove the tape and wash with soap. 10/10 would recommend!

Works SUPER well
It’s been a long time since I had a wart show up, and never on my face. This one was on my forehead and it seemed to pop up overnight. So of course I Amazoned the shorted shipping per dollar item I could find. Not only did it get rid of the wart super quickly, it did it in a relatively discrete way! The salicylic acid just peeled layers off. It turned white at first, but after the first layer of white peeled off, each layer became less and less visible. I also coupled it with some 30C homeopathic stuff, which may have helped, but the salicylic acid was definitely recommendable!

Definitely works
I rarely write reviews but this worked so well for my kids that I hope to help someone else out. My daughter had warts in her fingernail bed for a couple of years. I used the compound gel and it didn’t work. It was in such a sensitive area the doctor didn’t want to burn or cut it out. They multiplied to the entire bottom of her nail bed. I found this at a pharmacy and thought she could apply it herself but had my doubts that it would actually work… a few weeks later, they were all gone. I didn’t know if it was coincidence or the wart stick. Awhile after that my son developed a pretty big wart on the back of his hand. He had it for about a year and I tried the gel and natural remedies and nothing worked. I found the stick one day in my medicine bin and I cut off the tip and let him use it on the wart. He would smother his entire hand with it and never covered it. At first I could see a few little warts developing around the big wart which worried me that he was spreading it and then about a week later all of them were gone. They never fell off, just went back to normal skin. Be patient! It doesn’t work overnight. It took a few weeks both times.

It works! Just very slowly.
I bought this on April 12. Today it’s May 25. That’s how long it took for the wart to completely fall off. You need to apply this consistently, and daily. Everyone says to use duct tape but I just used bandages. I would apply 2-3x a day. Remember this is strong medication so stop using after the wart falls off. It works very slowly but it definitely works! If for whatever reason, a wart returns, I will be using this product again. Just requires patience!

First product that has consistently worked for me!
I had 2 warts on my hand, one on my ring finger and one on my thumb. The one on my ring finger had only been there for a few months but the one on my thumb had been there for over 5 years and no matter what I did, I couldn’t seem to get that one to go away. When I started using this stuff, the wart on my ring finger peeled off within 2 weeks. The one on my thumb took me about 3 and a half months and 2 additional tubes of this stuff, but it appears that I have finally been able to get this wart to go away. Depending on the stubbornness of the wart, this stuff can work super quick or it can take a while. Either way, it’s nice to have something actually work on the stubborn one! Before this product, I had used compound w, freeze off, duct tape, you name it but none of them worked. This stuff though actually did wonders and I was finally able to get rid of a wart that had been there for 5 years and showed no sign of going away beforehand! I most definitely recommend this stuff! You just need to make sure you have patience throughout the process!

Works great!
I bought this stuff for a wart on my face. 🙁 I was in denial about the little flesh colored bump being a wart until my kid nicked it with a fingernail and it started to grow. It got pretty raised before I accepted that I had a wart. TBH it looked like my forehead was growing a nipple :(. I didn’t want to go to the doctor, so I gave this stuff a shot, and I couldn’t be happier. You do have to follow the directions and soak the wart before you do anything. Obviously I couldn’t soak my forehead, so I wet a cotton pad and stuck it to my wart for five minutes, and then dried the spot and scraped off a little blob of the wart stick cream and stuck it right on the wart. Then I covered with a little round spot bandage . I did this every night and within the first two days it started peeling. It honestly looked kind of gross for the first week, but I could definitely tell it was getting smaller. After a month, it’s all but gone. Do make sure that you ONLY get the medicine on yoru wart. I accidentally got it on my forehead in a non-wart area and didn’t wash it off, and it turned red and itchy and peeled. The texture of this stuff makes it very easy to get just the right amount in the right spot, though. It also has not left a red mark or a scar, which I am very pleased iwth.

Works Great, but Will Take More than Two Weeks
Wartstick works great! It is much more convenient than mixing an aspirin poultice every night. The container is small, about the size of a lip balm, but it is used sparingly and should last a long time unless it loses potency over the years.The one warning I have is about managing your expectations. I got this for a little bitty wart on my knuckle. I applied the Wartstick every night at bedtime and covered it with a plastic bandage or padding held on with adhesive tape. I removed the bandage every morning and washed off the Wartstick. As dead skin built up, I used an emery board to sand down the wart. It has now been a little over five months, and the wart is almost gone. I don’t think this is an unreasonable amount of time since this is a gentle, over-the-counter treatment.

Bye Bye Little Warty
It works if used every day until Warty McWartface peels off. Be careful not to put too much on or the goo will spread to healthy skin. No need to take the good skin off too. Use a q-tip or a lip brush for precision application, then cover the area with paper tape or a water-resistant band-aid.

Did NOTHING for my wart!
I have a wart close to my right eye and this did nothing for it. I used it for about 2 weeks every day. No change at all. Not even by a little bit.

Worked on Deep Plantar Wart, Requires Time + Consistency
I had a very large, deep, heavily calloused plantar wart directly on the bottom of the ball of my foot for 15 years. I had multiple liquid nitrogen treatments at doctor’s offices, at-home freeze kits, salves, gels, duct tape, you name it. In fact, my doctor basically told me I should learn to live with it since it seemed untreatable. This product ended up being what worked. That being said, I have some things to note for people using/considering this product:1) CONSISTENCY IS KEY: I used this product for over a year, every day before my wart was completely gone. Prior to that, I had used it on and off and it wasn’t effective. So if you have a beast of a wart like mine, be prepared to make this a long-term part of your routine. For me, the commitment paid off. My foot looks perfect now.2) PREP YOUR FOOT: This seems to work best on a calloused area straight out of the shower when your skin is still soft. I also used a callus shaver to remove the top layer of dead skin each time I reapplied. This allows the product to have closer contact with the wart itself instead of your callused skin.3) USE A LOT: This is probably not recommended by the manufacturer, but given the size and depth of my wart, I would actually take a tweezers and “shave” off a thin layer of the product, put it directly on/in the wart, then apply bandaids. Swiping it like you would a chapstick didn’t seem to leave enough for me.

Forbidden Chapstick
I’ve been using some liquid from a well-known wart removal brand for over a year and it hasn’t done anywhere near what this Wort Stick has in a 1/10 of the time.I’d come across a random recommendation to check this stuff out and being not overly happy with the liquid option, I gave it a shot. It’s great.Application is far easier. You can place it just where you want and it’s not running all over the place while it dries.It lasts forever. Where the liquid would run out after a month or so, it was usually because the product inside would start to dry out. This stick doesn’t suffer that at all. It’s always ready to apply and applicable until it’s all gone.It’s far quicker to kill off the layers of skin and get to the problem wart. It seems this is because it absorbs into the skin far better. Rather than being painted atop the skin, it’s rubbed in and really absorbs. Where it’s be a week or two between good pints where a couple layers would peel off with the liquid, this Wart Stick causes those at least weekly, if not more often.I’m sold. This works much better than the big-name liquid, even with their freeze-off package. I highly recommend it and will certainly buy again.

It worked!
My child had a wart on his finger. We tried the little pads, which helped but didn’t seem to knock it out. I got a topical gel product, but it was messy and got on more skin than it should have, causing damage to areas around the wart. I ordered and used this wart stick (put it on, then covered with bandaid) and within a few weeks it was gone. I know this isn’t a solution for everyone, but it worked for us. I really liked that it was not messy like the gel, so it was easier to limit the application to just the problem area. Glad I just got a single stick of it, as a little goes a long way.

Only product that actually works!
I had a stubborn wart for 18 months. 4-5 visits to the dermatologists. $100+ dollars spent on salicylic acid and bandaids. I visited a different dermatologist, and he recommended something with 40% strength. I bought the WartStick and my wart was finally gone after about a 4-6 weeks of use. Such a relief!

CANNOT say enough great things about this
I don’t know why I had a billion warts on my right hand, and on my thumb, my warts had warts. It was so bad, and ugly looking. I found this and decided to try it, and have to say- it works as fast as freezing it off if you do it right!! Apply it to the wart and then cover it with a bandaid and it’s gone in like 1-2 weeks.I was skeptical at first because unlike freezing it off, I didn’t feel it. It felt like I was just putting chapstick on the warts and I was thinking “no way is this working” but I’ll be damned, it did.I still have a few more that I’m working on getting rid of (couldn’t do them all at the same time because my whole hand would have been covered in bandaides) but next time I start on a new one, I’ll take a before and after pic to show!!It is painless, comfortable, and relatively quick!!!It DOES kind of kill the skin surrounding the wart and that skin will be discolored for a little bit but it quickly heals itself

This does work be patient!
Original review April 16,2021:This is so easy to use. The product is great with adhesion to the feet (plantar warts). I have been applying this once a day since February 12, 2021. Let me just start by saying that I’ve had my plantar warts for more than 8 years. I shower and dry my feet. The wart stick is great because the thickness of the formula. I place it on the areas I need it and put duct tape on where my warts are at. This has been working like a charm. It’s slowly but surely falling off. I make sure I use duct tape so the product stays on. I repeat it every day. My plantar warts are looking so much better. I’ll update when my warts that are older than 8 years old warts go away.Update June 22,2021 well I have been using this since February 12, 2021 with a almost a month of break to give my foot a break. Three of my warts are completely gone. As of today I’m doing twice a day because hey I’m almost close to having my foot healed from plantar warts. Please be patient. It truly does work. Mind you my warts were 8 years old. Three are gone but now the rest are close to being gone. I still put duct tape. Your warts will turn white then shed and start again to turn white and shed. I find it easier to apply with a qtip for more more precise application. It’s easy to use cheap and there’s no horrible scent like the other wart removers.Update August 30,2021: my skin on the area where my previous three warts were located is normal now. Now I’m just left with two small warts and one pencil eraser diameter size wart. They are so close to being eradicated. The wart stick works wonders with duct tape. Please be patient it does work but you have to be persistent.Update September 14,2021:So many reviews stating that this doesn’t work. Let me just explain it take a while for it to eradicate the wart. Mines were 8 years old. Some people have had their warts less time and some more time. Your results will vary in time to fully clear a wart out. Mines are completely gone. I started 6 months ago. If you want it to work fast do twice as directed. I use it once a day. But the moment I started using twice a day my foot completely healed. It did make my foot very raw and gave me discomfort to walk. But my foot is clear. Do I recommend this! Yes’ yes!be persistent. Reiner cover the wart with duct tape

Works, but takes some patience and persistence
This wart stick was recommended by my doc after she tried to unsuccessfully freeze off 2 flat warts on my finger that have been there for years and years. We tried 2-3 times and at that point she didn’t wanna go further due to risking arthritis. So I purchased this on her recommendation and at first it did nothing. It took me about a year of consistent use to get this to remove my warts. I even started shaving off the top of them (yes it hurt) and applying this and honestly I think that’s what finally made the difference. Still took forever though. However, I now have a normal finger for the first time in years!! If you have the patience and can be consistent and willing to explore different ways to use it, give it a shot. If you’re looking for a quick fix, look elsewhere.

Works great
This stuff works great. My baby had 3 warts on her lip and we went dermatologist for every 2 weeks for freezing. And we tried for 3 months and paid so much copays and there was no change. Then we tried the dr.schols wart remover also never made any difference. But at the end we tried this one and worked great. Wart was gone in 2 weeks. I will recommend for everyone who needs it.

It takes time, but works
I’ve had a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot for 4+ years that never went away or improved at all. I’ve tried it all; freeze, pads, gel, duct tape, you name it. None of those worked or even helped.I thought I’d be stuck with this wart forever.I saw this on amazon and saw the reviews so thought I’d give it a try. I’m glad I did.First of all, the easy application and no smell is the best part about this. It doesn’t dry up or have any chemical smell to it at all.This also showed results the fastest of any product. I started by just rubbing it onto the wart area and covering with a bandaid twice a day. While this works, I eventually found it better to use a toothpick and apply it more accurately onto the wart to avoid damage to surrounding skin.I used a pumice stone and removed dead skin with a knife. If you do this, just be careful you aren’t digging at the wart area to avoid pain and bleeding.It was great to see progress. It does take time for the severe plantar warts, but keep at it.I started to think even with this product the wart wouldn’t go away but after a month and a half of consistent use, mine is almost unnoticeable. I don’t have to hide my bare foot anymore!I’m still going to continue to use this to get rid of it completely, but wanted to say it does work and I’m so happy that I can finally be bare foot again without constantly hiding my foot.

Not that effective.
Been using this 1 month now and it has not come off yet. Very slow and irritate the area around the wart. Like 12Years ago I used one that was more expensive but omg it worked so fast and leave the area clear and smooth. Application was twice a day and in 5 days the wart dried up like a raisin and fell off from the roots without bleeding or sore and it was not a small one

Easiest product for kids warts!
This is the only thing that worked for my kid. She was so scared of all the “freezing” products we got. She did not want us touching her foot. I put this cream (it looks like chapstick) on a medical tape bandage and wrapped her foot up. Took multiple days so we made it a bedtime routine. It was painless and the wart is finally gone today! Will tell all parents about this. So easy! I used it liberally too and it did not hurt her.

Works great!
I bought this stuff for a wart on my face. 🙁 I was in denial about the little flesh colored bump being a wart until my kid nicked it with a fingernail and it started to grow. It got pretty raised before I accepted that I had a wart. TBH it looked like my forehead was growing a nipple :(. I didn’t want to go to the doctor, so I gave this stuff a shot, and I couldn’t be happier. You do have to follow the directions and soak the wart before you do anything. Obviously I couldn’t soak my forehead, so I wet a cotton pad and stuck it to my wart for five minutes, and then dried the spot and scraped off a little blob of the wart stick cream and stuck it right on the wart. Then I covered with a little round spot bandage . I did this every night and within the first two days it started peeling. It honestly looked kind of gross for the first week, but I could definitely tell it was getting smaller. After a month, it’s all but gone. Do make sure that you ONLY get the medicine on yoru wart. I accidentally got it on my forehead in a non-wart area and didn’t wash it off, and it turned red and itchy and peeled. The texture of this stuff makes it very easy to get just the right amount in the right spot, though. It also has not left a red mark or a scar, which I am very pleased iwth.

It works really well
I use this for a month on and off.. I’d forget a lot. Comes in a tube that looks like chapstick kind of mess but it dose work. The instructions are printed very small on the tube.use the product every two days and cover it with a bandage. Simple instructions, easy to use and dose work.

This was the first time my wart’s went away
I had warts on my feet for quite a while and for a very long time and when I went to the foot doctor he gave me cream and stuff but it still stayed there and never went away…So I was looking around Amazon for different items and stuff to try new creams out to take away the 5 warts I had all over my foot and as well I was reading bad reviews and good reviews at the same time I decided to try it out and now if you look at my foot you can see it’s as if nothing was ever there in the first place and I still have my wart stick with a lot left if I need to get rip of anything in the past…The stick in self in small and easy to roll out like a regular makeup stick… And after you put it on your feet your feet get a little sticky but it dries up after a while and you don’t need to chop or cut anything off no dry skin or nothing it just ends up disappearing sometimes you might feel your skin get a little soft where it starts peeling a drop but don’t worry about it and just starts going away and those job very happy very grateful and then now after when I went back to the doctor to show my foot he was shocked to see that it went fully away and also he looked at the stick and said this is only 40 percent by the way…So I guess the less strong the cream is the better cause in the past I was using strong stuff and all it did was make the foot all white and the whole foot all full of dry skinSo overall this was the first time it worked and for a cheep price…

Best wart remover on the open market
My Dr. Told me instead of wasting my money on a prescription wart remover that this product has 40% higher concentrate of the chemical that actually removes the wart. I’ve been using it for a week now and the wart has disappeared, I highly recommend trying wart stick before goi g to the Dr. and wasting money freezing it off or them prescribing something more expensive.

Review for a friend
This thing works, which a friend told me (not me, I don’t have warts). My friend (not me) said that using this for two weeks, combined with duct tape, cleared up a painful plantar wart. The package was easy to open, my friend reported. He was a little concerned that the tube does look like chapstick, so best to keep away from kids. He didn’t want to write a review because he was embarrassed. Never had a wart myself, but if I did, I’d use this. Just to reiterate, I don’t have any warts.

Stop Looking – this is it.
After researching how to remove an annoying, single wart on my finger, I realized that salicylic acid is key ingredient. This particular remover has the highest concentrate I found. It’s already done way more removal than anything else I tried, and I just started. Compare the differences for yourselves. The other tubes are not cheap for the amount you get, so why not go with the highest percentage? Plus, it’s in a tube, like a waxy chapstick, & should last for a long time. Good luck!

Finally !
I have had this rather large wart on my finger for 12 years. Tried freezing it off, all sorts of different applications and even got a specialist but it never fully went away and kept growing till it was so annoying I couldn’t handle it.I bought this and at first, it didn’t seem to work. I would put it on, put a bandaid on top, everyday for about a week . Just when I thought it didn’t work, and I stopped applying. I didn’t notice it was a slow process but my skin looked like it was drying up and it started to peel. Was pretty gross but I thought hmmm.. I’ll give it another go. Kept reapplying and by the second week, it fell off. Completely gone No residue. And my skin is soft. Yall. 12 years I had this thing. Learned to live with it. Became an ugly part of me.It was a slow process but with persistent and determination, it truly worked and I’m so happy to finally get my finger back to normal.
