Thin and effective

These patches come in two sizes to accommodate different acne sizes. They are a hydrocolloid material that works by absorbing oils and pus into the patch to reduce acne. It is also helpful in the prevention of picking at blemishes while it works 💪🏼. To use the patch you must clean and dry your skin and lands and then gently remove the application tab by holding down the patch on your blemish and twisting the red tab out. This is a unique feature that allows for a cleaner application so that you are not touching the sticky side with your hands. After using these patches for a week I experienced reduction in the amount of discharge to my acne as well as some blemishes completely gone. I also have to mention that these patches are hard to notice on your skin at all so you could even use them during the day when you are out and about.

Effective!

I recently tried the Nexcare Thin & Transparent Acne Patches, and they’ve become my go-to for covering up pesky blemishes. These patches are so thin and transparent that once they're on, I almost forget they’re there. They’re perfect for wearing day or night, and they stay on for hours without budging. What I love most is how the hydrocolloid material works like magic, absorbing all the oil and gunk from my pimples. You know it’s working when the patch turns white! It’s also great that the patch acts as a barrier to prevent me from picking at my skin—such a lifesaver for me. Application is super easy too, thanks to the ready-to-grab tab. No mess, no fuss, and no touching the adhesive side with your fingers. I even use tweezers for a more precise application. Honestly, these patches are a must-have in my skincare kit whenever a breakout appears. Just clean and dry your skin, apply the patch, and let it do its thing for up to 8 hours. Pro Tip: Make sure your skin is completely dry before applying for the best results!

Favorite acne patches

The Nexcare™ Thin and Transparent Acne Patch has been a go-to for me when dealing with unexpected breakouts. I love how discreet they are—being nearly invisible, I can wear them during the day without anyone noticing. They effectively reduce the size of pimples overnight, flattening them by absorbing excess oil. I also appreciate how they prevent me from touching or picking at my skin, which has helped me avoid scarring. The patches stay securely in place and work well even under makeup, making them convenient for any time of day.

Super sticky!

Super effective - just tested out the strength of the adhesive at the gym and it’s definitely sweat-proof. So happy to have a reliable acne patch I can use anywhere

Easy to use!

This acne patch comes in 2 different sizes; 10mm and 12mm. There's a red tab you peel off to help stick onto the pimple with accuracy and ease. Unlike some other pimple patches I've used in the past, I liked having the red tabs to stick onto the pimple because it didn't crumple up at the corner. The quality of the pimple patches were thick, sturdy and well-made. It didn't rip when I pulled the red tab off to release it down.

THESE DIDNT FALL OFF!!

I am so impressed with these patches. I have used so many in the past, And truly nothing compares.

These patches are so easy to use, Are able to last all night long without falling off, And I was able to apply it to skin that I had finished cleansing and moisturizing.

When I view so many different branded patches, I had to make sure the area was completely void of any moisture. I would go even as far as to wipe it down with an alcohol wipe.Just to make sure that it was dry enough to hold the patch in place.

But these patches make that kind of practice history.

Admittedly, these are a bit pricey compared to those at winners, But these work.

Ten out of ten

A Game-Changer for Stubborn Pimples

The Nexcare Acne Patch is an excellent solution for those dealing with stubborn pimples. The patches come in a box with 39 assorted sizes, catering to different needs and pimple sizes, which is very convenient. They are thin and transparent, blending subtly with the skin, allowing for discreet daytime wear and effectiveness throughout the night.
What makes these patches particularly impressive is their hydrocolloid technology, which absorbs pus and oils from pimples, thereby reducing inflammation and the risk of scarring. This technology not only speeds up the healing process but also protects the acne from external bacteria and prevents touching or picking, which can worsen the condition.
From personal experience, these patches work best on pimples that have matured. You simply apply a patch over a pimple and leave it on for several hours, or overnight, and it noticeably reduces the size and redness of the acne by morning. The patch turns white as it absorbs pus, indicating that it's working, which is satisfying to see.
Overall, the Nexcare Acne Patch is a simple, effective, and non-invasive acne treatment. It’s a must-have for sudden breakouts, especially when you need a quick fix. Their effectiveness and ease of use make them a favorite for anyone seeking targeted acne treatment.

Easy to use

I love how easy these are to use! The tab feature is something that every pimple patch I've tried has never had. Other brands I've used are so hard to peel off (especially with acrylic nails) so with these, the tab makes it effortless!

Great for pimples!

I really liked using the Nexcare Brand Acne patches. They were so simple to use. Within a few days my pimples were all gone. I couldn't believe how much stuff it got out. I love how they are clear so you can go about your day with them on.
