Dealing with unexpected blemishes can be frustrating, especially when you want them to heal quickly and without leaving a mark.

• Who it's for: Ideal for anyone experiencing occasional pimples (whiteheads or pustules) who wants to prevent picking and reduce the chance of post-acne dark spots.
• What it does: This thin, transparent hydrocolloid patch creates a moist, protective barrier over a blemish. It absorbs pus and oil while delivering a mild dose of soothing ingredients like Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid, and Centella Asiatica Extract to calm redness and irritation.
• Expected Results: Blemishes appear flatter and significantly less red overnight. By protecting the spot from bacteria and UV exposure, it helps prevent scarring and the formation of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

1. Cleanse: Wash and completely dry your face. The patch sticks best to clean, dry skin.
2. Apply Patch: Choose a patch that fully covers the blemish and press it on gently for 2-3 seconds.
3. Let it Work: Leave the patch on for 8-12 hours (or overnight). It will turn white as it absorbs impurities. Follow with your usual routine on the rest of your face.

Note: Already own a spot treatment? Use it on a different blemish to see which works best for you, but avoid layering them on the same spot.

As-Needed Use:

• Amount: Use one patch per blemish. Choose a size that is slightly larger than the spot.
• Apply to: A clean, completely dry blemish. Do not apply any toner, serum, or cream on the spot before the patch.
• Method: Peel a patch off the film. Center it over the pimple and press down gently to ensure it adheres well, especially around the edges.
• Duration: Leave it on for 8-12 hours or until the patch turns opaque white, indicating it has absorbed fluid. Replace with a new patch if needed.

If-This / Then-That:

• If you have a fresh whitehead: Apply a patch immediately to absorb the pus and speed up healing.
• If the blemish is just a red bump (no head): The patch will primarily help by preventing you from picking it and will deliver soothing ingredients to reduce redness. It won't absorb pus if there is none.
• If you wear makeup: You can apply makeup over the patch. Its thin, matte design makes it discreet and prevents concealer from irritating the blemish directly.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid using on deep, infected cysts, or open, weeping wounds. Discontinue use if a rash or significant irritation occurs. These are designed for surface-level blemishes.

• Overnight: The patch will likely turn white, and the blemish underneath should appear visibly flatter and less inflamed.
• Within 2-3 Days: With consistent use (changing the patch as needed), the blemish should be significantly reduced or fully healed, often without forming a scab.
• 4+ Weeks: By consistently protecting new blemishes with these patches, you can significantly reduce the formation of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark spots), leading to a clearer, more even skin tone over time.

• Instead of popping pimples: Use a hydrocolloid patch. Popping a blemish can push bacteria deeper into the skin, cause permanent scarring, and lead to dark spots that last for months. A patch safely absorbs pus from the surface without damaging the surrounding skin.
• Instead of using toothpaste on spots: Use a medicated patch. Toothpaste contains irritants like fluoride and SLS that can cause chemical burns and worsen inflammation, leading to more severe post-acne marks, especially on melanin-rich skin. These patches contain skin-safe ingredients designed to soothe and heal.

• Works Well With: Any gentle skincare routine. These patches are designed to be an isolated treatment. You can continue with your regular hydrating toners, serums, moisturizers, and sunscreens on the rest of your face.
• Use With Caution: Avoid applying the patch directly on top of other strong, leave-on spot treatments (like high-concentration benzoyl peroxide or retinoids). This can trap potent actives under occlusion and increase the risk of irritation. For best results, apply the patch to clean, dry, bare skin.
• Avoid On: Do not use on broken, infected, or weeping skin. These patches are not suitable for deep, cystic acne that does not have a "head."

Suitable for all skin types—Oily, Dry, Combination, Normal, and Sensitive—that experience occasional inflammatory blemishes like pustules or whiteheads.

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Hydrocolloid Dressing (Acrylates Copolymer): The main material of the patch. It forms a gel-like substance as it absorbs moisture and pus from the blemish, creating a moist environment that promotes faster healing and prevents scab formation.
• Salicylic Acid (BHA): A gentle chemical exfoliant that can penetrate into the pore lining to help dissolve oil and dead skin cells.
• Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil: A well-known botanical ingredient with natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help calm redness and irritation.
• Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract: A natural source of salicin (a precursor to salicylic acid) that provides gentle exfoliation and soothing benefits.
• Centella Asiatica Extract: A beloved K-beauty ingredient known for its powerful calming and wound-healing properties, helping to reduce redness and support skin repair.

Full INCI List: Acrylates Copolymer, Vinyl Caprolactam/VP/Dimethylaminoethyl Methacrylate Copolymer, Butylene Glycol, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, PVP, Salicylic Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Polysorbate 80, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract, Allantoin, Volcanic Ash, Sodium Hyaluronate, Phytosphingosine, Centella Asiatica Extract.

• Fragrance Status: No added artificial fragrance.
• Scent Profile: A very faint, clean, medicinal scent from the Tea Tree Leaf Oil. (Scent intensity: 1/5)
• Potential Allergens: Contains Tea Tree Leaf Oil, which naturally includes components like Limonene that are listed as potential allergens in the EU. The adhesive may cause sensitivity in some individuals. A patch test is recommended.

Who Should Use: This product is suitable for individuals of all ages, including teens, who experience surface-level blemishes like whiteheads and need a gentle, protective solution.

Who Should Use With Caution: Not intended for deep, painful, under-the-skin cysts or nodules. If you have a known allergy to adhesives (like those in bandages) or any of the listed botanical ingredients, use with caution.

Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply one patch to a clean, dry area of skin on your jawline or behind your ear. Leave it on for 8 hours. If no redness, itching, or irritation occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use on blemishes.

If Irritation Occurs: Remove the patch immediately. If a red ring or rash appears and persists, discontinue use. This may indicate a sensitivity to the adhesive.

• Texture: A very thin, flexible, and discreet adhesive patch.
• Finish: Matte and slightly translucent, designed to blend into the skin.
• Scent: Faintly medicinal (tea tree).
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains Polysorbate 80, which can be a potential trigger for some individuals prone to fungal acne. *Individual responses vary.

• Issue: The patch won't stick properly.
  Solution: The skin was not completely clean and dry. Ensure you wash the area and pat it thoroughly dry before application. Do not apply any other skincare products underneath the patch.
• Issue: The patch didn't turn white or reduce the pimple.
  Solution: The blemish was likely not a pustule or whitehead with fluid to absorb. Patches are most effective on pimples that have come to a head. For red, under-the-skin bumps, the patch primarily acts as a protective cover to prevent picking.
• Issue: My skin is red in the shape of the patch after I remove it.
  Solution: You may have a sensitivity to the adhesive. Discontinue use and opt for a liquid spot treatment instead.

These patches are exceptionally well-suited for the hot and humid Mauritian climate. They create a clean, sealed environment that protects blemishes from sweat, bacteria, and pollution, which can otherwise delay healing. The patch also provides a physical barrier against the sun's intense UV rays, which is critical for preventing the formation of dark spots (PIH) on a healing blemish.

Aggregated sentiment from online beauty communities. Individual results may vary.

• "I really like that these have soothing ingredients. I feel like they do more to reduce the redness of a new pimple compared to my plain hydrocolloid patches. They're also quite thin and stick well." — Paraphrased from Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2024)
• "They are a pretty good patch. They adhere well and are discreet enough for daytime. My spot was definitely flatter the next morning." — Amazon customer review (2024)
• "A fair caveat: they don't seem to absorb as much gunk as the thicker Cosrx patches. For a really big whitehead, I'd probably still reach for the Cosrx Master Patch, but for smaller, redder spots, these are great." — Paraphrased from Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2023)

Can I use these patches on blackheads?

No, hydrocolloid patches are not effective for blackheads. They are designed to absorb fluid from inflammatory acne like pustules (whiteheads).

Are they suitable for deep, painful cystic acne?

These patches are best for surface-level blemishes. They will not be able to draw out fluid from a deep, under-the-skin cyst that doesn't have a head. For cystic acne, it is best to consult a dermatologist.

Why did my patch not turn white?

If the patch didn't turn white, it means the blemish did not have any excess fluid or pus for it to absorb. In this case, the patch still served as a protective barrier against picking and bacteria.

Can I cut the patches to fit a smaller spot?

It's not recommended. Cutting the patch can compromise its sterility and the integrity of the adhesive at the edges, making it less effective and potentially introducing bacteria.

Best For: Individuals with sensitive or acne-prone skin who need to heal surface-level whiteheads and pustules quickly while calming redness.
