The microcrystal technology really gets in there and tackles the problem from the start, which is a huge relief.- Love that they include tea tree oil. It's a natural ingredient that I've always trusted for its soothing and antibacterial properties. It feels like I'm giving my skin a little extra care.- The fact that they're vegan and cruelty-free is a big win. It's nice to know that I'm using a product that's not only effective but also ethically made.- The hydrocolloid material is fantastic at keeping the area protected and clean. It helps prevent me from picking at my skin, which is a bad habit of mine.- However, I wish there were more patches in a pack. Nine patches don't last long, especially if you're dealing with multiple breakouts at once.- The patches could be a bit more adhesive. Sometimes they don't stay put overnight, which can be a bit annoying.- It would be great if they were a bit more transparent. They can be a little noticeable on the skin, which isn't ideal if you want to wear them during the day.Overall, these patches are a solid addition to my skincare routine, but a few tweaks could make them even better.

These spot dots are brilliant. I’ve used a different well known brand for years and tried these for a change. Very impressed, great it comes in two different sizes which have been useful for my children to also use.You can hardly see them on the skin so I’ve been able to wear them when out and about to help with the redness of an inflamed spot.Can’t recommend them enough, great product.

I have seen a lot of videos about how these type of patches work and I always had my doubts. After I (a woman in my late 30s) had an issue with some recurring spots I decided to try them. I found I had some spots on my forehead that would pop and loads of oil would come out, to the point I would place a piece of tissue on it, let it soak it in and then would wait a few hours until it was dry and remove it. Doing that often left my skin dry and I wanted an alternative. I chose these because of the good reviews. I also bought some of the large patches which I haven’t tried yet.These are easy to apply and nice thick patches. They come in a nice little plastic film wrapper and they are on a piece of plastic. There are three different sizes - small which I find really only good if it’s a blackhead sized spot (I have used it for a few blackheads I had tried to pop as I found once I tried to pop it I would get a spot come up there) and the largest is maybe about the size of a 5p coin. Some of the spots I get are a little bigger when they’re inflamed so some of these might not be suitable for that. That being said, I press it on for about 10 seconds and I have slept with them on and been up during the day with them on and forget they are there. Also they’re not immediately obvious. It’s also easy to tell when it’s picked up oil as there is a white spot on the outside of the bandage. I find it takes me two goes on a spot to deal with it. I’ve tried to pop it or break open the skin, then I clean it, dry it and put a patch on. My skin type is a tad on the oily side and historically I don’t spend a lot of time on my skincare routine. These are a nice addition to that. They are easy to peel off and don’t hurt. There’s been a couple of times I’ve had to pull it off slow as to avoid disrupting the spot which had sort of scabbed over.Overall I am happy with these - I wish there was a slightly larger size and fewer small ones, but that’s my personal preference. I have used way more of these than I expected to and can see myself buying them in future.

I was very sceptical with all these spot patches around but I started buying them for my daughter and used a few myself and I can 100% say these are the best I've brought so far! I will 100% be buying more in the future. There is no pain when taking them off, they stick really good! I've found some hardly stick to the skin. It's absolutely effective so I'd highly recommend!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as effective as other options

Y. · 31 March 2024

My second time buying acne patch from this brand. I reckon it is thinner, and it doesn’t absorb and reduce swelling as well as other brands I use after I first used it. I gave it a second chance again because I had Avenue breakout recently, and I need many acne patches. This brand is obviously cheaper than other brands by offering more patches for the same price. However, it is not effective when it comes to reducing inflammation and swelling. May not purchase this next time

4.0 out of 5 stars Helps prevent scarring, picking and relieves inflammation

H. · 31 May 2022

These are easy to use, comfortable to wear overnight and do work. So far I’ve only been able to try them on blocked pores, tiny little red spots and a couple of under the skin bumps rather than Krakatoan breakouts. I did some research and despite advice that they only work on spots that have been brought to a head, they do reduce under the skin bumps slightly and definitely help blocked pores and small red spots. When they turn white it is due to the hydrocolloid absorbing moisture/fluid from the pore, which can include infection. The upside of the hydrocolloid is that it allows the spot to heal while the surrounding skin is kept moist, which is critical for wound healing and preventing scars, the opposite of what most spot treatments do. This makes concealing the area easier as the skin around it isn’t dried out and flaky.The 96 pack is great value. I haven’t tried wearing them during the day so I can’t comment on visibility or applying makeup over them but they are transparent and pretty flat.

Best patches I’ve used!

They pull a lot of gunk out (if there is any to be pulled out) and they stick on well (I’ve had mine on for over 12 hours once even though it’s recommended is I believe is between 4-8 hours). I will say if you have a little peach fuzz on your face it will pull on the hairs when you pull it off- but what patch wouldn’t? I will forever keep buying these. I’ve had no irritations, no redness from them, and they have helped my pimples flatten down, and helped others bring a white head to the surface.

Product is as described

Decent product as described

Surprising!

I expected these to be minimally visible, but you can barely see them at all upon first application unless light hits them a certain way.After leaving them on overnight or during the day, they become more noticeable due to the white spot that forms over the blemish. This means they’re working! I have put the patches on spots that had less need for them and they did not form as much of a spot.These are ok to wear at night or out during the day at work. They stay on very well, and I have oily skin. They have a smooth texture and are not distracting to touch. They have not irritated my skin, and when they come off, previously rough skin has become flat and smooth.Thanks for this wonderful product.. I will be buying these all the time now.

Satisfait

Les meilleurs patchs

L.n. · 14 May 2025

Ce sont pour moi, les meilleurs patchs sur le marché jusqu’à aujourd’hui.Je n’ai pas une peau acnéique de base, mais il peut m’arriver d’avoir un bouton ou deux, ces patchs sont très efficace. Je les laisse toute la nuit et le lendemain la surface est plate et lisse et le bouton a été complètement aspiré par le patch.Je l’ai recommandé à tous mes amis.si le bouton n’est pas parti le lendemain car il était trop gros ou trop rempli, ne pas hésiter à laver la zone et en remettre un .
