Pimple Patches Acne Patches Hydrocolloid Patches for Covering Zits and Blemishes Spot Care for Face Absorb Fluid 5

With two teenage girls in our household, I have learned the indispensable value of pimple patches. I am also familiar with the high cost of some of them, so I am always looking for better sources for purchasing them. I have found these to be an exceptional choice. Here are my impressions of these pimple patches: -The quantity is outstanding, as is the value. I am thrilled with the value of 300 pimple patches for about $9. -The package has a 3 year shelf life with a recent production date, so there is no worry about them expiring before they are used. -The individual sheets of patches are packaged and sealed separately, so one sheet can be opened at a time. This is really helpful in keeping a bunch of half-used sheets from being scattered all over the place, getting dirty. -The ingredients include tea tree oil, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid. These are all ingredients I look for in pimple patches, but not all of them contain all three. -The patches come in different sizes. I did feel like this was a little over-done with this product. There are five sizes, with the three smallest being 10mm, 9mm, and 8mm. No teenager I know is going to evaluate a pimple enough to effectively choose between these sizes. It would have been better to include two sizes, like some other brands, with most being 9 or 10mm. The 8mm were a little smaller than practical, but still usable. It was just too many choices that do not positively affect the product usage. -There was a very, very faint tea tree smell to the patches, but it is not particularly noticeable once they are applied. -Neither of my girls experienced any skin irritation and they did find the patches to be at least as effective as others they have used. Overall, I really loved this product and plan to use these to replenish our supply as needed. Read more

I’ve been using these pimple patches for a couple months now and they work well! You can smell the tea tree oil in them, so they truly do contain that. I was worried about having a reaction since I’ve only used straight hydrocolloid patches before this, but I haven’t had any issues. These stay on nicely until I take them off myself. I’ve had them on for 12+ hours before! I love the different size options and they really blend into my skin. I forgot I had one on and wore it to Thanksgiving dinner, and I didn’t even notice until I got home and looked closely in the mirror haha! Read more

My daughter has bad acne on her forehead which has been a problem for the last year. We got this acne patch set and started using it. She washes her face every night with panoxyl and dries her skin. Then applies the patches over the pimples and sleeps with them on. She has a lot and they are mostly on her forehead, so that's the area I took photos of. Most of the photos are after the patches are removed in the morning. The first photo (day 1), did have the patches in bc I'd forgotten to take a before photo. The patches have never fallen off while she sleeps. They stick very well. Day 2 photo after removal looked pretty bad actually and I was worried they weren't working. I think that maybe her skin was slightly irritated from the new product being introduced. She didn't have any pain, itchiness or other bothersome irritation, so she wanted to continue using them. We started seeing a noticeable difference after removal of patches on days 3 and 4. Today is day 5 and the difference is very noticeable. Her skin is clearer, less red, she does still have bumpy skin from the acne, but it's more of her skin tone now and not red/irritated like active pimples. She wants to keep using them, and we have had enough of an improvement over the past 5 days to continue with positive expectations. One thing is, the package seems to promise a decrease in redness and irritation. As you can see from our experience, it looked worse after the first application and then got better. I would recommend starting this on a day that you don't have big plans the day after or even the next 2 days after the first application. It could inflame the skin even if it isn't painful or itchy irritation, and may make it look worse. My daughter doesn't wear any makeup at all, so makeup wasn't an option we wanted to use to make that inflammation any better. But all in all, it does work but I'd give it a few days to get noticeable results. Read more

I could smell the almost minty scent of the tea tree oil when I first opened the box, but the patches don't have any odor to them and they don't sting when I put them on an open blemish. They are a little thicker than some patches I've tried and they can absorb a lot of fluid without coming loose. They stick very strongly and they lie flat, even when I've been wearing them for hours, and they seem to heal blemishes faster than plain hydrocolloid patches. What I really like about this set is the range of sizes and how easy it is to peel the patches off the plastic sheet. The five sizes go from 14 millimeters down to 8 millimeters. I like using the bigger ones at night and the tiny ones are nice to have during the day when I don't want them to be noticeable. There are lines of perforations down each sheet and all the patches are centered on the lines, so it's simple to tear the plastic down the dotted line without tearing or stretching the patch. They have a light gold tint to them, but that isn't obvious once a patch is in place, and they have a soft matte finish that blends in well with my skin texture. They are very good at absorbing fluid and protecting blemishes and they look pretty close to invisible. Read more

These patches function just like the name brand ones I've been using, but are more cost efficient. They stay on all night and help to flatten the blemishes by morning. I like the variety of sizes the pack comes with also. The only thing to note is that they aren't patches I'd feel comfortable wearing out in public because they are noticeable. Not an issue when wearing at night, but for those who are looking for something to wear discretely, these wouldn't work. Read more
