Alba BotanicaAcnedote Pimple Patches for Face - Pimple, Spot Patches - Hydrocolloid Skincare Patches - 40 Count

I have had these on subscribe and save for years because they work so well. I like that when they are on they arent super noticable like the other ones that have bright colors and shapes. These are simple and clean looking. When I put them on at night I wake up to them being full of white junk and the pimple is much flatter.

As an adult with acne (so unfair), I’ve tried tons of pimple patches. These ones stick and work the best of any others I’ve tried. I can do my usual skincare, let it dry, and put on one of these patches. They don’t move and they blend in really well, so I can wear it during the day at work if needed.

I’ve had acne since middle school. Now in my 30s, I still breakout and can expect a larger flare up with my monthly cycle. These patches are by far my favorite pimple patch and I’ve tried every drug store brand. I used to find these patches in wal mart and now repeat order on Amazon. They are easy to use, aren’t noticeable, and can stay on all day or night without falling off. They literally drain and flatten swollen breakouts overnight or throughout the day. Pulling off the patch is so satisfying to see all the gunk on the patch and how flat the breakout is. They are a life saver for a breakout girlie and I keep some for emergencies in my car, in my purse, in my lunch bag and in of course my bathroom drawer.

These patches work so well! They're the only ones my teenagers use because they work quickly and efficiently. And with teenagers, time is of the utmost importance in getting rid of pimples!

I like that this packaging contains less plastic waste, and these are a good value for the money. I keep these in a drawer where they are less likely to get wet, so a paper box is fine for me. When I put them in my dop kit I seal them in a snack sized ziplock to keep them dry, though. The individual sheets are sealed. The sheets are small, which means you are unsealing fewer at a time. These patches are a tiny bit thinner than some brands and a little harder to apply smoothly, but if you succeed they are also slightly less conspicuous. They also become gummy if left on for a long time and can be more difficult to remove. I always swab the treatment area with a tiny bit of alcohol before and after applying them, though, which helps with adhesion before, and removes residue if there is any after. Just make sure it dries fully before applying the spots. I would prefer it if they were all the larger size, but the smaller size is still big enough. I can’t tell that the additional ingredients-tea tree oil or whatever- have any benefits, but these work fine.

I have tried so many of these pimple patches and always come back to this brand. I like them better than Hero and Mighty patches which I know are very popular. These are thinner, stay on better and pull out more gunk than any other brand I've tried. I can use these during the day and they aren't super noticeable, and it prevents me from touching or picking at my acne. I prefer to use them at night because they eventually fill up and become more noticable the more it pulls out, but that just means it's doing a dang good job. I've got these on a refill subscription Brevard they are so regularly used!

Easy to use & sticks really well. Put it on before bed and take it off in the morning for a couple days, blemish goes down a lot. Get remaining stickiness off with alcohol. I have sensitive skin and never had any sort of reaction to these.

I tried this on a whim after my beloved Skyn Iceland blemish dots were discontinued. These are suuuuper sticky...like, there's almost a residue after you peel it off, and it gets all stretchy and gummy as you remove it. Every time I remove one of these I feel like I'm about to have to pull it off in half a dozen sticky little pieces, and then I'm always kinda surprised when it doesn't actually snap after all the stretching. I guess most importantly, these really don't work that well. Does the usual hydrocolloid thing where it turns white over your pimple, so you think it's actually working...until you take it off and realize you still have a pimple underneath. At best, if I put this on a zit overnight it might become easier to pop in the morning, and even that is only if it had already come to a head before the patch was placed. Otherwise, the only thing I can say reliably is that blemishes at least don't ever get bigger overnight when I have one of these on it. But if like me you had higher expectations than that, keep looking. I won't repurchase.
