Teen acne, adult acne… it all sucks. Even that pimple breakout caused by that time of the month can’t be avoided.
Over the past decade, companies have developed pimple patches; stickers that help to draw out the inflammation and nasty stuff in the center of your zits.
We tried them and these are our top recommendations to zap those zits:
Nexcare™ Acne Cover (Blemish Cover)
This acne cover reduces the urge to touch and squeeze acne, both during the day or unconsciously when sleeping. I recommend placing the sticker on your pimple(s) at night. In the morning, likely a white blob of pimple innards will have come to the surface of the sticker. These acne patches are breathable, comfortable and work like a sponge to absorb pus and oil from clogged pores.
HANHOO’s Erase Zit Magnesium Microneedle Patch
Target troubled spots with a microneedle patch infused with Magnesium. The non-dissolving microneedles carry calming Magnesium straight to the pimple to improve the look of deep zits. The hydrocolloid patch protects the blemish from finger-picking and dirt. Apply during the day or overnight.
Neutrogena Stubborn Acne® Ultra-Thin Blemish Patches
These dermatologist-tested patches are proven to help reduce the size of popped pimples in one day. The ultra-thin, non-medicated blemish patches provide an optimal healing environment to help protect pimples from being picked.
