You need pimple patches. Listen, I can’t speak to your acne, but chances are if you’re reading this review you have some type of pimple that can be helped by pimple patches. I’ve tried 3 different brands, for your convenience, and these are my favorite. Matched in stickiness to CosRX (which are both better than Avarelle), tied for cost with Avarelle (.17/ea vs .12/ea for CosRX – although these are all in the budget bracket), most useful size options so you don’t get stuck with leftover awkward sizes, fastest to flatten and reduce pain for deep cysts, and BEST at bringing new pimples to a head and sucking the life out of them.For background, I’ve been struggling with a year-long breakout, my skin only rebelling further with my attempts to rule in or out various causes. So, after one particularly bad reaction from yet another new product, I was back on the internet and read about pimple patches. Like I said, I’ve been going through 3 brands over the past several weeks as I continue to work out what’s causing all this to begin with. These have worked best on deep cystic pimples and new white heads that haven’t yet formed a head. If I get them early, some can be flattened (and therefore pain reduced) before they ever form a head (overnight in most cases). Even if it’s not gone completely by morning, it hurts substantially less and is easier to cover up. For others, I may have to wear a patch continuously (changing out as needed) over several days. I can wash my face and take a shower without these falling off! Luckily we’re all at home, or wearing masks when out these days. These are the most discrete, but I wouldn’t say any I’ve tried are coverable for actual in-person human interactions. My attached picture shows 2 patches and 1 make up covered healing pimple (more noticeable than the patches to me). I think the patches are perfectly fine on zoom/camera.Now, if you’re anything like me (and you are, if you’re looking for pimple patches), you are also one of the lucky few (many?) whose anxiety manifests in picking, no matter how bad you know it is for you. That’s the absolute #1 benefit to pimple patches. When you feel the urge to pick, slap one of these on and LEAVE. IT. ALONE. Trust the patch and it’s mystical powers. This brand especially are the best at pulling out all that nasty stuff that you will try and try to squeeze but never fully get. You’ll see the patch turn white with satisfying success, and then (remember, I know you) you’ll go to change it out and think, “well, if the patch can pull THAT out I can just get the rest myself”. False. You won’t be able to, because you don’t have the voodoo pixie magic these patches do. You’ll try to squeeze and pinch and push, and once you’ve gotten your fix, just put another patch. The patch will forgive you, and just go right on healing that pimple in spite of you. Long story short (not very short), these are amazing.I’m REALLY hoping to get my ish under control sometime soon. But, even if I do, I will absolutely keep these on hand for the inevitable day-before-a-(now nonexistent)-big-event pimple. They’re an absolute essential to any acne sufferer.

Effective for hiding pimples, might aggravate them
The patches do a good job of making the face look more sightly by hiding the pimples. However, directions are to take them off in 4-8 hours. Since they are so sticky for long after that amount of time, taking them off (with or without the assistance of water) can very easily pop the pimple. This can aggravate it and make it stay longer/scar. It is hard to tell if active ingredient in these patches do actually help speed up the acne healing process. I figure that is different for everyone based on the type of acne.In summary, good at hiding pimples, questionable if it helps them heal faster. Wish they were less sticky over time.

Works as stated!
This product is easy to apply and quickly helps blemish to heal. The patch can be worn during day as it is almost invisible. It stays on securely. I experienced no irritation from these patches and I have very sensitive skin. Would recommend.

Miracle
There are amazing. My 11 year old daughter uses them. Put them on and you can’t see them. Her skin is clear the next day

Recomendable

These stick really effectively to the skin. I’ve been able to sleep with them on and they haven’t fallen off in the night like many others. The backing plastic is perforated so that you can tear it away from the sticker and not stretch the sticker out trying to pull it off the sheet.The translucent design means they are fairly discreet but also disguise the look of the spot a little. I feel these have helped to draw out spots quicker than if I’d done nothing.Pros:- Discreet appearance- Easy to remove from backing sheet- Can be effective in drawing out spot- Good adhesion to skinCons:- More expensive than other brands I’ve tried
