Dealing with unexpected spots can be frustrating, especially when you want them to heal quickly and without a trace. These ultra-thin hydrocolloid patches are designed to do just that, creating a moist, protected environment that absorbs impurities while delivering the soothing benefits of Centella Asiatica.

• What it is: A pack of 22 ultra-thin, translucent hydrocolloid patches in two sizes.
• What it does: Absorbs fluid from surface-level blemishes, protects the spot from bacteria and picking, and helps reduce inflammation and redness.
• Who it's for: All skin types experiencing occasional whiteheads or pustules.
• Key Benefit: Provides discreet, waterproof protection that speeds up the healing process and helps prevent post-acne dark spots (PIH).

1. Prep: Gently cleanse and completely dry the blemish area.
2. Apply: Peel a patch from the film and press it firmly over the spot.
3. Heal: Leave on for 4-8 hours (or overnight). Replace when the patch turns white and swells with absorbed fluid.

Note: Have other active spot treatments? Use this patch when you need a protective barrier over a blemish that has come to a head, especially during the day or to prevent picking at night.

Using a patch in the morning can help protect and conceal a blemish throughout the day.

1. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Tone/Serum (Optional): Apply any hydrating toners or serums, avoiding the immediate blemish area.
3. Apply Patch: Ensure the blemish area is completely dry, then apply the Spot Cover Patch.
4. Moisturise: Apply your moisturiser to the rest of your face.
5. Sunscreen: Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+). The patch provides a physical barrier against UV on the spot itself.

Overnight is the ideal time for a patch to work its magic, absorbing impurities while you sleep.

1. Double Cleanse: Start with an oil cleanser to dissolve sunscreen and makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser.
2. Actives (Optional): Apply any exfoliating toners or treatment serums to your face, avoiding the blemish.
3. Apply Patch: On the clean, dry blemish, apply the Spot Cover Patch.
4. Moisturise: Apply your nighttime moisturiser to the rest of your face, avoiding the patch.

• Amount: One patch per blemish. Choose the size that completely covers the spot.
• Apply to: A clean, dry blemish that has come to a head (e.g., a whitehead or pustule).
• Method: Peel the patch from its film without touching the centre. Press the adhesive side gently over the spot for 2-3 seconds to ensure it sticks well.
• Frequency: As needed. Change the patch once it turns opaque white, or after 8-12 hours. You can use them continuously until the spot is flat and healed.

If-This / Then-That:

• If the spot is deep and under the skin (cystic): Then a hydrocolloid patch will not be effective. It works by absorbing fluid from surface blemishes.
• If a pimple has just formed a whitehead: Then this is the perfect time to apply a patch to draw out the impurity.
• If you just picked a pimple: Then cleanse the area, dry it, and apply a patch. It will help absorb any remaining fluid and create a clean environment for healing.

Watchouts: Pilling or poor adhesion is usually caused by applying the patch to damp skin or over other skincare products. Ensure the area is completely dry for best results.

Safety: Do not use on infected wounds, deep punctures, or cystic acne. Discontinue use if a rash or irritation occurs. For teens, this is a safe and effective way to manage occasional spots and prevent picking.

• Immediate: The blemish is concealed and protected from touch, bacteria, and friction. The thin, beveled edge makes it very discreet.
• Within 4-8 Hours: The patch will turn white and swell as it absorbs pus and fluid from the pimple. Upon removal, the blemish will appear flatter and less inflamed.
• After 1-2 Days: With consistent use (changing the patch as needed), the spot should be significantly flattened and the healing process well underway, often without forming a scab. This helps minimise the chance of scarring or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

• Why this, not that? Use a sterile hydrocolloid patch instead of picking at spots or applying toothpaste. Picking introduces bacteria, damages the skin, and leads to inflammation, scarring, and dark marks (PIH). Toothpaste is an irritant that can cause chemical burns and worsen hyperpigmentation. A patch provides a clean, moist healing environment, which is clinically proven to speed up wound recovery.

• Works with: Your entire gentle skincare routine. The patch should be applied on a clean, dry spot before moisturisers or sunscreens are applied around it.
• Use carefully with: Other active spot treatments. Do not apply a patch on top of another potent spot treatment (like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid gel) as this can trap the active and cause severe irritation.
• Avoid on [Area]: Do not apply lotions, creams, or oils to the skin before applying the patch, as this will prevent it from adhering properly.

• All Skin Types: Excellent. This product is not skin-type dependent but rather concern-dependent.
• Acne-Prone Skin: A must-have for managing surface-level breakouts (whiteheads, pustules).
• Sensitive Skin: Generally very well-tolerated as it is fragrance-free and creates a protective barrier. However, some individuals may have a sensitivity to the adhesive. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• Blemish Healing

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Hydrocolloid Dressing (Cellulose Gum, Hydrogenated Polymers): The core material of the patch. It's a moisture-absorbing dressing that draws out fluid (pus and oil) from a blemish, creating a moist, gel-like environment that promotes faster healing and reduces scarring.
• Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid: These are the three primary active compounds derived from Centella Asiatica. Together, they provide powerful soothing and anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to reduce the redness and irritation associated with a blemish and supporting the skin's healing process.

• Fragrance Status: Fragrance-free. Does not contain any added fragrances or essential oils.
• Scent Intensity: 0/5.
• EU Allergens: None declared.

• Who should use with caution: While generally safe, individuals with a known allergy to adhesives should be cautious.
• When NOT to use: Do not apply to deep, infected, or cystic acne, as the patch cannot draw fluid from that depth and may trap bacteria. Do not use on open wounds that are actively bleeding.
• If irritation occurs: If you experience redness, itching, or swelling after use, remove the patch and discontinue use. Consult a doctor if irritation persists.
• Teens & Kids: Safe for teenagers to use on occasional pimples. Not intended for use by young children.

• Texture: A very thin, flexible, and translucent film with a matte finish. It has a beveled edge to help it blend seamlessly into the skin.

• pH: Not applicable.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Considered safe for those with fungal acne.

• Issue: The patch won't stick properly.
  • Quick Fix: Ensure the skin is 100% clean and dry before application. Any moisture, oil, or product residue will interfere with the adhesive. Press gently for 3-5 seconds to warm the adhesive and secure it to the skin.
• Issue: The patch didn't seem to do anything.
  • Quick Fix: Hydrocolloid patches work best on pimples that have a "head" or are close to the surface where fluid can be drawn out. They will not be effective on closed, under-the-skin bumps (cysts or nodules).

These patches are exceptionally well-suited for Mauritius' hot and humid climate.

• Protection: The waterproof barrier shields blemishes from sweat, environmental humidity, and bacteria, which can worsen breakouts in a tropical environment.

• Ingredient Rationale: The efficacy of these patches is based on established principles of wound care. Hydrocolloid dressings have been used in medical settings for decades to promote moist wound healing, which is proven to accelerate recovery and reduce scarring. They work by absorbing wound exudate (fluid) and forming a protective gel.
• Ingredient Rationale: The inclusion of Centella Asiatica derivatives (Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid) is based on extensive research showing their potent anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. These compounds help to soothe the inflammation of an active blemish and support skin regeneration.

• Contents: 22 patches per pack (12 patches of 12mm, 10 patches of 10mm).
• Cost-per-Use: Each patch is a single-use treatment for one blemish.
• Reorder Cadence: This is an "as-needed" product. We recommend keeping a pack on hand so you are prepared for unexpected breakouts. Reorder when you have used about half of the pack.

When is the best time to apply a pimple patch?

The ideal time is when a pimple has formed a visible whitehead or pustule. The patch works by absorbing the fluid from this type of blemish.

Can I use a patch on a pimple I've already popped?

Yes. After gently cleansing the area, applying a patch can help absorb any remaining fluid, protect the open skin from bacteria, and promote faster, cleaner healing.

How do I know when to change the patch?

You should remove or replace the patch when its centre has turned opaque white and swelled up. This indicates it has absorbed the maximum amount of fluid.

Does this help with acne scars and dark spots?

It helps prevent them. By creating a protected, moist healing environment and stopping you from picking, the patch reduces inflammation and tissue damage, which are the main causes of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and scarring.

• Best For: Individuals of all skin types who need a discreet and effective solution for healing surface-level whiteheads and pustules.
• Key Benefits: Rapidly absorbs impurities, protects blemishes from bacteria and picking, soothes inflammation with Centella Asiatica derivatives, and is thin enough for daytime use.
• Keep in Mind: These patches are not designed for deep, under-the-skin cystic acne. The adhesive works best on completely clean, dry skin.
