I agree. As much as I think all the magic band designs are, I just don't bring myself to buy one because really what do you do with it when done? [Although to be fair I'm an AP holder so I use it all the time], but still aside from being in "the world", I don't wear it all the time at home so I'd rather buy a mug with the money. Something I'd use virtually everyday.

We bought these for our last trip and they looked good for about 2 days. Then they started peeling off and made a huge mess of the band leaving sticky goo all over it. I definitely would not recommend them. It makes me sad, because I had such high hopes for them!

Thank you for the review. I was about to purchase one this weekend, but think I won't now. Bummer. Too bad they weren't better.

I don't think they are stickers, the images are laser printed on the band in the same way that the phone cases are made on site.

They were talking about the bands from magic your band, not Disney.

Hi - I am sorry you had problems with your skins they should not have come off after 2 days - please can you email me tracy@magicyourband.com with details of your order so I can look in to it as it not normal.

We all bought the cloth type material covers the last time we were down there and they make the magic band much more comfortable to wear.

I have to give a big thumbs up for magicyourband.com I've ordered from them twice already, once in April and again in September. They were really easy to apply and stayed in place for the full 10 days of our trip in April, even through a full day at a waterpark.
When it came time for our September trip the stickers from April peeled off perfectly well and didn't leave any sticky stuff on the bands.
I'm just about to order for a quick December trip and cant recommend them highly enough plus their customer service is outstanding!

We used those for our whole party when we were there in August 2015. They worked just fine, lasted well attached the whole time we were there (9 days). It was hot and sweaty and sunscreen-y... and they did not come loose. Will likely keep them on the bands for any coming future visits.
Pay attention of cleaning the MagicBand before applying the skin... and take time to really smooth it onto the band.
best,

We did go ahead and purchase from wwwmagicyourband.com
I can not speak to the wear of the skins yet since our trip is in December, but can tell you, in a world where excellent customer service seems to be a thing of the past, Tracy (the owner), goes far above and beyond any expectations I have for any company! We received our bands in a timely manner and they are beautiful!!! We are excited to use all the different styles, including one for Christmas! For the price they are a great option to add a bit of personality to the otherwise blah and NONPURPLE bands offered to date.
We'll let you know how they do on our trip!
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow!
