Pimple patches have been around for a while now and you may have already used them or at least are aware of them. But with new kinds of pimple patches popping up, just as many questions pop up as well.

So, we combed through some of the common questions about our patches and have answered them here: 

Q: How do you keep the Glow Blemish Patch glowing in the dark?

A: Our Glow Blemish Patch needs to be charged up first before applying so you can get the best glow in the dark effect. All you have to do is point a light source, like your phone’s flashlight, at the patch for at least 30 to 60 seconds. Then you can apply it on the spot and watch as the patch glows in the dark. 

If you notice the patch losing its glow you can simply charge it up again with a light source and it’ll be back to glowing. 

Q: How else can I use the Cosmic Blemish Patch? 

A: Aside from diminishing your pimples, the Cosmic Blemish Patch can also be used in a couple different ways. For one, the cute holographic finish makes it great for use in a cool makeup look. They can also complement a look on a night out or even to spruce up a festival fit. 

The hydrocolloid material in the patch is also great for minor cuts or even bug bites. It helps protect the spots from external irritants or from scratching at the spots. 

Q: Does the Dark Spot Brightening Patch have Vitamin C? 

A: Yes, our Dark Spot Brightening Patch contains Vitamin C in the form of Ascorbyl Glucoside. This form of Vitamin C helps improve the appearance of uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation. So, alongside the Niacinamide in the patch, this ingredient also helps brighten the look of the skin and fades post-blemish marks. 

Q: Does the T-Zone Pore Patch help close pores? 

A: No, the T-Zone Pore Patch does not help close pores, but generally speaking no topical skincare product can close your pores. Pores cannot open and close; their size is largely dependent on your skin type as well as genetics. But, you can make sure to keep your pores clear of debris like dead skin cells and excess sebum to help improve the look of enlarged pores.

The T-Zone Pore Patch functions by absorbing excess sebum on the skin to help prevent it from clogging up pores. So when you use the patch overnight you will notice it start to turn white. The white on the patch indicates the amount of gunk absorbed from the skin, like excess oil. And, after 8 hours of sleep (or more if you’re lucky) you’ll come away with a super gunky patch and clearer-looking pores. 

Q: Does the EraZit Magnesium Microneedle Patch work on pimples that don’t come to a head?

A: The EraZit Magnesium Microneedle Patch works best on deep pimples, which don’t typically have visible gunk at the surface. These are the types of pimples that don’t typically come to a head and that usually appear as tender, red bumps. They form deep in the skin and can be quite a nuisance. 

EraZit helps by having the Magnesium microneedles reach the spot directly and deliver calming Magnesium to the spot so it doesn’t get worse. And, over the course of a few days of use the spot will diminish in size. For this reason, EraZit is great for deep pimples or early-stage pimples that have not yet come to a head and helps stop them in their tracks. 

Q: What patch works on stubborn acne that keeps coming back? 

A: The Extra Strength Blemish Patch is a great option for stubborn pimples. Made with Salicylic Acid, this blemish patch helps flush out pimple gunk from the pore to help make sure that a recurring pimple doesn’t keep coming back.

Sometimes, when a pimple is super gunky you may end up needing a few patches to help extract all that gunk. The Extra Strength Blemish Patch is gentle enough that you can use it consecutively to make sure that the pimple doesn’t come back.   

Q: What do you do after you remove the patches? 

A: After removing a patch, you can proceed to cleanse the skin with your choice of cleanser. If you notice some lingering redness or flakiness from a healed pimple, then you can apply our Post-Blemish Corrector on the spot. The Post-Blemish Corrector is made with Ceramide to hydrate any flaky spots and a combination of 3% Niacinamide and 2% Tranexamic Acid to help fade red and dark spots. You can use the corrector up to twice a day daily to help fade these lingering spots.
