Description

Easily remove stubborn common and plantar warts with this fast-acting, maximum strength formula. Compound W Fast acting wart removal liquid contains salicylic acid, a trusted active ingredient in wart removal. From gels and liquids to freezing methods, there's a Compound W product that's just right for you. Each wart removal type easily and effectively removes warts. The Freeze wart removal method freezes the wart to kill the virus and can remove warts in as few as one treatment. Medicated bandages and topical liquids and gels slowly soften and peel away the wart over time with salicylic acid. While Freeze wart treatments can remove warts relatively quickly, medicated bandages and topical gels and liquids can take up to several weeks to fully remove a wart. Compound W also has special wart remover products specially designed for kids with two removal types — freeze and medicated bandages. Compound W offers a variety of wart treatment products so you can treat warts at home and get back to looking and feeling great.

Rhianne - 1 month ago
It did not come out in drops at all it was the texture of partial dried glue and would not transfer to skin. It just stuck to the brush. It also says precision tip, but it is just like a nail polish brush. You have to glob it on with a qtip to get it to go on your skin using too much of the product and it burns after few minutes.

Nicole - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
Just buy the gel version! This one is very hard to use and product in the bottle dries out easily (and gets crusty). Plus the bristles on the brush that comes attached to the bottle lid/top is very mangled, stiff, and too big to get accurate application….you end up accidentally getting it on unaffected skin. Even if you try using a q-tip instead of the brush to apply this…it dries in mid-air as you’re trying to apply it to your fingers/hands. Just overall dries too quickly. The gel is much easier to use as you can put it on a q-tip and pin-point apply it. The gel might take a little longer to try, but it’s much more user friendly. This was a waste of money for me. Maybe if it was huge planter foot warts…but definitely not for your fingers/hands which tend to be smaller warts

I acquired this on drive up -and the box was opened but there were other things in the bag so I thought maybe it popped open in the bag? From the gal putting things in the car? But when I opened the bottle there was nothing in it? It’s only supposed to be .31 fl oz sooo I guess what my question is- should there be actual liquid in the bottle? Lol. Ughhh. Oh drive up. A short term convenience that I always end up back in store for one reason or another 🤦🏻♀️

I bought this for my daughter’s warts on her hand. Seemed to work fine after about a week, but the application is horrible. The brush is not a “precision tip”. It’s hard to control where you are putting it.

This isn’t a totally horrible product. It did help start the removal of my wart. The problem is the medication started to dry up in the bottle after 3 days of use. I had to throw it out because it made my house smell really bad. There is probably a better product out there to remove warts. It was worth a try but I would not buy this again.

The product works well until it dries out and gets all gunky in the bottle. If it will only take you a week to remove your wart, great. But if you plan to actually use this product as directed, you’ll be buying something else or returning it.

HORRIBLE! Sadly, I went through 3 in a matter of 2 weeks. I was thinking I left the lid off. One bottle lasted a day, the 2nd bottle lasted 3 days, the 3rd lasted a day. It is pure garbage and dries up to a hard goop that turns white that can't be applied. Such a rip off!!
