These pimple patches by Korean brand Cosrx have been one of my favorite acne spot treatments during these dark days. If you’re unfamiliar with spot patches like these they are basically like stickers you use to cover the pimple and overnight it is supposed to help shrink the pimple and, well, make it less.. there. Sounds like a dream come to true, right? I’ve tried other spot patches, like the ones by Missha, but these by Cosrx are by far the most effective! Overnight these patches literally suck out all the nasty stuff from the pimple and help shrink it so it can heal. I find these work best on pimples that have rose toward the surface of the skin, I haven’t had much luck on pimples that are deeper down within the skin. Which makes sense, since these patches basically suck out the gunk within the pimple, it’ll be more effective on pimples that have rose closer to the surface of the skin. These patches stick very well to the skin and don’t fall off while you sleep, but make sure your skin is dry and clean before applying these for the best results. I usually put these on after I use my cleanser and toner so that my later steps (moisturizer, serum, mist etc) don’t cause the patch to slip around. The less there is between the skin and the patch the better. I found these the cheapest on yesstyle, but you can also find them here and here and a bunch of other places as well. If you’re on the market for a new acne spot treatment or are struggling to get your skin under control I really recommend you give these a shot. Good luck on your road to healthy, clear skin! ✨✨
