It does what it says on the tin
Full disclosure that I didn't get any instructions with my sample, so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I felt these were just... okay! I didn't have any actively healing breakouts so I was using them on a corner of my mouth that always cracks and has darkened from the scabbing/healing. I've tried putting it over moisturized and unmoisturized skin and it sticks well both ways, but does leave some unseemly wrinkles from being stuck on overnight. Also not convinced that the triangle shape is the best. I did try cutting them in half to use, and they worked fine as well so you can get more bang for your buck that way (but be warned they do stick together quite easily, and don't peel apart).
For the most part, I feel like there is some minor lightening, but not significantly more than you'd see with targeted spot treatments like a niacinamide/retinol/vit c serum and it feels a little wasteful to have to use them for 10 days or more to see more of an effect. If you're the kind of person who tends to pick at your scarring or has more sensitive skin that you don't want to directly apply serums to, then this might be more your speed. But otherwise, I think most people might find themselves better off with a serum.

It’s alright
I was gifted this product for an honest review. I’ve seen this type of patches advertised by influencers on TikTok and YouTube, and was really excited to try them out. I tried the patches on my most stubborn breakouts (for context, I don’t get a lot of breakouts) for several days in a row and they’ve not had any significant effect on healing or the appearance of them. And yet, I’ve used them on other less noticeable break outs and they’ve disappeared within one night of wearing the patches. I can’t ascertain whether that occurred due to natural healing or not, but given that there was nearly no effect on the more stubborn areas of breakouts, I don’t know that this product does what it claims to do. It could also just not be working for my skin.

It did the work
Received about 4 of the PanOxyl blemish brightening patches and I wish I had gotten more so I could give a better review. It did do the work as I had a pimple show up as soon as I received it. The first night after I used it, the pimple became dull, and in 2 days I couldn't see it again or a scar from it.
I wish the patches were smaller or at least easy to divide, because I found them big enough to treat 2 spots but couldn't divide it for that purpose. I may be inclined to buy it as an "Emergency save my face kit", but not for everyday use.

It seems a good product
I received a sample of the product with only four patches, so I cannot talk about how effective it is since it says that improves the marks after 10 days of use, and I only had product for four days. Something I did not like about the sample is that it lacked of instructions on how to apply/use the product. I had to research online in order to be sure that I used it correctly. The product seems to be good, but I really cannot say that I experienced significant changes in my post-acne marks.

Clear up the spots patches
The patches are very easy to use and have good glue to stick on throughout the night. I used it for 6 days and it did help to lighten the spot a bit, otherwise naturally it takes more than a year to fade it. The size of the patch is good enough but I had to cut and use it as I received this to test and could only use it for 6 days .i

Not a terrible product but far from the best
I found the patches didnt stick well and it wasnt as strong as some other products ive tried in the same category. It doesnt smell too strong and didnt leave a tacky residue but atill i wouldnt spend money on it.

Needed more.
I think I would like to try other PanOxyl products. This sample came with 4, and said it would be effective in 10 days. So it didn't quite do the job, however I like the ingredients and it did some with a coupon to try other products in the line.

Wasn't for me
I received four PanOxyl to try so I used them on my post acne scars. As these were PM patches, they're meant to be used overnight and then peeled off in the morning.
Application was super easy and the patches were big enough to go over a few scars that were in proximity of each other. I loved that they barely felt or looked noticeable on my skin, but I didn't care for the removal process since it was a bit painful. I assume I'm supposed to use a patch a day to see results so unfortunately I didn't see any difference to my acne scars or pores during my trial. I also find that it's a bit pricey since a box comes with 16 patches and you're supposed to use 10 in an area to see results. Sadly, it wasn't for me.
