Best suited to early-stage, surface-level breakouts like whiteheads, pustules, and papules rather than deep cystic acne, this hydrocolloid acne patch works by drawing surface fluid out and treating inflammation as a targeted spot treatment.
Each pack contains 72 patches, giving plenty of coverage for anyone who wants to stop picking at a pimple and let it heal untouched instead. Swap for a fresh patch once it turns opaque or white, a sign it's done its job absorbing fluid.
Complete The Routine
Frequently bought together for early-stage, surface-level pimples like whiteheads, pustules, and papules.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many patches are in one pack? ⌄
Each pack contains 72 patches.
Do they work on all types of pimples? ⌄
They're most effective on pimples with a visible head or oil/pus buildup close to the surface. Customer feedback is mixed on deeper or cystic bumps, since hydrocolloid patches primarily draw out surface fluid rather than treating deep inflammation.
How long should I leave a patch on? ⌄
You can leave it on overnight or all day, and it's designed to be worn continuously until it turns opaque/white (a sign it's absorbed fluid), at which point it's a good idea to swap it for a fresh one.
Can I put skincare or makeup over the patch? ⌄
Yes, since the patch needs to sit on totally clean, dry skin first, everything else in your routine like serums, moisturiser, sunscreen, and makeup, goes on top of it afterward.
How do I apply them properly? ⌄
Cleanse your face, make sure the skin is completely clean and dry, then stick a patch directly onto the pimple. Leave it on overnight or throughout the day. All skincare and makeup goes on top of the patch, not underneath.
Who should use pimple patches? ⌄
Anyone with an active whitehead or surface-level pimple who wants to speed up healing and stop themselves from picking at it. They work best on pimples that already have a visible head, rather than deep cystic acne.
What do these patches do? ⌄
These are hydrocolloid patches infused with salicylic acid and centella asiatica. They absorb oil, pus, and gunk from an active pimple while shielding it from bacteria and further inflammation, helping it shrink within hours.
