Dealing with a sudden, noticeable pimple can be frustrating. These ultra-thin patches offer a nearly invisible solution to protect and heal spots, even under makeup, making them perfect for daytime use in Mauritius's social and professional settings.

• What it is: A pack of 15 sterile, ultra-thin hydrocolloid patches designed to absorb fluid from pimples and protect them from external bacteria.
• Who it's for: Anyone with oily, combination, or acne-prone skin who experiences surface-level pimples (pustules) and wants a discreet way to treat them.
• Key Benefit: Absorbs pus and impurities, speeds up healing, prevents scarring and dark spots (PIH), and stops you from picking at blemishes. Its super-thin, matte finish makes it almost invisible on the skin.

1. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Dry & Apply: Ensure the pimple and surrounding area are completely dry. Peel a patch from the film and place it directly over the spot. Press gently for 2-3 seconds.
3. Continue: Proceed with your regular skincare routine (toner, serum, etc.), applying them around the patch. In the morning, finish with sunscreen.

Note: Already own a similar product? Finish that first to practice mindful consumption (substitute, don’t stack).

The patch is your first treatment step after cleansing.

1. Cleanser: Start with a clean base.
2. [THIS PRODUCT]: On a completely dry spot, apply one patch.
3. Hydrating Toner/Essence (Optional): Apply around the patch to prep skin.
4. Serum (Optional): Apply your targeted serum, avoiding the patch.
5. Sunscreen SPF 30+: Essential for protecting your skin and preventing the spot from darkening. The patch itself provides some UV protection for the area it covers.

Apply the patch after cleansing to work overnight.

1. Cleanser: Double-cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant sunscreen.
2. [THIS PRODUCT]: On a completely dry spot, apply one patch. Leave it on overnight.
3. Actives (Exfoliant/Retinoid - Optional): Apply your active serums, avoiding the patch.
4. Moisturiser: Finish with a moisturiser to lock in hydration.

• Amount: One patch per blemish.
• Apply to: A clean, dry pimple that has come to a "head" (contains pus or fluid). Do not apply over creams or serums.
• Method: Peel the patch from its film. Center it over the pimple and press gently for a few seconds to ensure it adheres well.
• Frequency: Use as needed. Replace the patch when it turns white and opaque, or after 8-12 hours.

When NOT to Use: These patches are not effective on deep, under-the-skin cysts that have no "head." They work by absorbing fluid, so they are best for surface-level pustules or whiteheads.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid using on deep cuts or infected wounds. If the area becomes more red, swollen, or painful, remove the patch and consult a clinician.

• Immediate: The pimple is concealed and protected from bacteria and picking. Redness is less visible due to the patch's coverage.
• Within 6-8 Hours: The patch will turn white as it absorbs pus and fluid from the blemish. The spot will appear flatter and less inflamed after removing the patch.
• Within 1-2 Days: With consistent use (replacing the patch as needed), most surface pimples will be significantly flattened or fully healed, with a lower risk of scarring or leaving a dark mark (PIH).

• Why use this, not toothpaste? Toothpaste contains harsh ingredients like fluoride and sodium lauryl sulfate that can burn the skin, disrupt your skin barrier, and worsen inflammation, often leading to a darker post-acne mark. A sterile hydrocolloid patch creates a clean, moist healing environment that is medically proven to speed up wound recovery without irritation.
• Why use this, not picking? Picking at a pimple introduces bacteria from your fingers, damages the skin tissue, and can push the infection deeper. This almost always leads to worse inflammation, a longer healing time, and a higher chance of permanent scarring or Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). A patch safely draws out impurities without any trauma to the skin.

• Works With: All other skincare products (toners, serums, moisturisers, sunscreens, makeup).
• Use Carefully: The patch itself is non-reactive. The key is the order of application.
• Application Rule: Always apply the patch to clean, completely dry skin before any other liquid or cream products. Applying it over a toner or moisturiser will prevent it from sticking properly and reduce its effectiveness.

• Excellent for: Oily, Combination, Acne-Prone skin.
• Good for: Normal, Dry, Sensitive skin that experiences occasional breakouts.
• Caution: The adhesive is gentle, but if you have a known allergy to adhesives, perform a patch test on your arm first.

• Whiteheads that are close to the surface

• MFDS Class: General Cosmetic. This product is not classified as a functional cosmetic in Korea.
• Medical Disclaimer: This is a cosmetic patch for protecting blemishes. It is not a medical device or a cure for acne. For severe, persistent, or cystic acne, please consult a dermatologist.

• Key Ingredient Explained:
  • Hydrocolloid (Cellulose Gum, Polyisobutene, Polyisoprene): This is a moisture-absorbing material used in medical wound dressings. When placed over a pimple, it creates a moist, sterile environment, gently draws out fluid (pus and oil), and protects the wound from bacteria, which accelerates healing and reduces the risk of scarring.

Full INCI: Polyisobutene, Polyurethane-9, Polyisoprene, Cellulose Gum.

• Fragrance: Fragrance-Free. This product contains no added fragrances or essential oils.
• Scent: None.
• EU Allergens: None declared by the brand.

• Texture: An extremely thin, flexible, and soft film with a matte finish.
• Feel: Adheres strongly but comfortably to the skin, almost like a second skin. It is designed to be unnoticeable once applied.
• pH: Not applicable.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Considered safe for those with fungal acne as it contains no oils or esters that the yeast feeds on.

• Issue: The patch won't stick or peels off easily.
  • Fix: Your skin was not completely dry. Ensure the blemish and the area around it are free from any moisture, toner, or cream before application. Press it down for 3-5 seconds to warm the adhesive.
• Issue: The pimple under the patch got bigger or more painful.
  • Fix: This may be a deep cyst that is not suitable for a hydrocolloid patch, or it could be a sign of infection. Remove the patch, cleanse the area gently, and monitor it. If it worsens, consult a clinician. Do not apply another patch.
• Issue: The patch left a red ring after removal.
  • Fix: This is usually temporary and due to the adhesive. It should fade within an hour. If you have very sensitive skin or a known adhesive allergy, test a patch on your arm first.

• Humid Summers: Excellent. The patch creates a waterproof and sweat-resistant barrier, protecting your pimple from the humid air, sweat, and environmental pollutants that can worsen breakouts. It prevents a spot from becoming more infected in the heat.
• Drier Winters/AC Environments: Very helpful. It prevents the spot from drying out and forming a hard scab, which can slow healing and lead to scarring. It maintains a moist healing environment which is optimal for skin repair.

We source all our Pyunkang Yul products directly from authorized distributors in South Korea. Every item is guaranteed 100% authentic. The packaging features a mix of Korean and English text, along with a batch code. For any authenticity concerns, you are welcome to contact us via WhatsApp with a photo of your product.

• Ingredient Rationale: The effectiveness of this product is based on the well-established science of hydrocolloid dressings in medical wound care. Hydrocolloid creates a moist, occlusive environment that promotes autolytic debridement (the body's natural process of removing dead tissue), absorbs exudate (fluid), protects against bacterial contamination, and prevents scab formation. This leads to faster healing and significantly reduced scarring.

Each pack contains 15 single-use patches. The reorder cadence depends entirely on the frequency of your breakouts. It is a useful product to keep on hand for skincare emergencies.

Developed by the renowned Pyunkang Oriental Medicine Clinic in Korea, Pyunkang Yul adheres to a philosophy of minimalism and balance. The brand focuses on using only the most essential and gentle ingredients to help the skin find its optimal oil-moisture balance and achieve a healthy state, making their products especially suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types.

Hydrocolloid

A wound-healing material that forms a gel when it comes into contact with fluid. It creates a moist, protected environment to speed up healing and absorb pus and oil from a blemish.

Pustule

A type of pimple that contains yellowish pus; often called a "whitehead" or a pimple with a "head." These are the ideal type of blemish for a hydrocolloid patch.

PIH (Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation)

The dark mark or spot left on the skin after a pimple or other inflammation has healed. It is caused by an overproduction of melanin. Protecting a healing spot with a patch helps prevent PIH.

When is the best time to apply a pimple patch?

The best time is on a clean, dry pimple that has a visible "head" (pus). This allows the hydrocolloid to effectively draw out the fluid. You can apply it day or night.

Can I put makeup over the Pyunkang Yul patch?

Yes. Because it is "super thin" and has a matte finish, it blends well with the skin and makeup can be gently applied over it for even better concealment.

How do I know the patch is working?

The patch will turn from clear to an opaque white color in the center. This indicates that it has absorbed fluid and impurities from the pimple.

How is this different from the COSRX Acne Pimple Master Patch (the red one)?

The Pyunkang Yul patch is significantly thinner, making it more discreet and ideal for daytime use. The COSRX Master Patch is thicker and generally more absorbent, making it a popular choice for overnight treatment when visibility doesn't matter.

• Best For: Individuals seeking a nearly invisible solution to treat surface whiteheads and pustules, especially during the day or under makeup.
• Key Benefits: Ultra-thin and discreet design, strong adhesion, effectively absorbs pus, and protects blemishes to prevent scarring.
• Keep in Mind: Not effective for deep, cystic acne that has not formed a head. The pack contains 15 patches.
