I’ve been testing these out on a PIH mark leftover from a pimple I had. These patches are large and the mark was quite small so I cut them in half to get a couple more uses. I’ve used them about 7 times and I do think the mark is lightening a bit. However I don’t think it’s been long enough for it to fully go away.
I will say these are very comfortable to wear! They go on really smoothly and you can’t feel them at all. There were several mornings where I forgot I was wearing it until I washed my face and felt it. I think it also blended into my skin well enough that I could wear it during the day (though I chose to wear it at night). They were very easy to take off and didn’t hurt at all.
Overall I would consider buying these for an active breakout, but I don’t think these are the most economical way to deal with PIH.

I was not that impressed with this product. It is a cream product, so I wasn’t expecting much foam, but it hardly emulsified at all. I had to use a lot of the product to get my whole body clean, even using a loofah.
It has a light, creamy texture and a subtle almond smell, not too overpowering. This was nice as almond isn’t my favourite. However that’s not the products fault, just a personal preference. It still smelled pleasant. I love other L’Occitane scents, almond just isn’t for me.
My skin felt soft after my shower, even before moisturizing. But I didn’t notice any smell on my skin after about 30 minutes.
Overall I wasn’t impressed with how much product I had to use to feel clean. It doesn’t lather well at all. For the price, it doesn’t feel worth it. However, my skin did feel noticeably softer after my shower, even before moisturizing. I will finish the bottle, but I won’t repurchase.

Sarna Bug Bite Patches
These patches were really soothing and cooling. They greatly reduced the itch on my bug bites. I like the ease of use, no messy balms, and the hydrocolloid provides a nice, protective breathable layer. They’re handy to keep my bag for on the go!

This moisturizer was pleasant to use and really very lightweight. It did take a little bit to sink in, but once it did it was non-sticky and did not leave a film. I used this right after a shower, and while it did moisturize, I did need a couple layers to truly feel like my skin was hydrated. I think this would be a good, lightweight moisturizer to use in the summer, but I don't think it's quite hydrating enough for dry winter skin. I do think this would be good for someone with sensitive skin, it is very gentle and doesn't sting. It also has a pleasant oatmeal scent. -
