Literally Amazing I read through some of the comments and here's the deal with those who aren't getting great results - the pimple has to be weeping. And when I say weeping, I mean that active pimple you have been resisting the inevitable pop? Pop that pimple (clean hands, clean skin) then place the patch. Its goal is to draw pus into the patch - cant do that if the pimple hasn't been popped. These aren't going to work on cyst. These aren't going to work on blackheads. They DO work on ingrown hairs though. They are the bomb on POPPED whiteheads. So, here's whats up, you have a juicy pimple that you're dying to pop but don't want to risk digging in your nails and/or skin tool and you know you're going to pop it? Yeah, this patch is for you. Got a cyst or blackhead or pimple without a head? Nah, this isn't going to be for you.
Defective/Fake? I have generally purchased these ~10 at a time from Ulta. The last batch I received seems like it was either fake or defective. The stickers didn't absorb anything!!! With past purchases, I would put one on (e.g., a recently popped zit) and overnight the sticker would absorb an incomprehensible amount. I'd wake up to a bandage that was thick/white in the center. These remained flat with no absorption. I thought it might just be a bad package, so I tried the others - same problem. I was buying from Ulta specifically because other sellers were being described as selling knock offs. I guess I will just have to ditch this product. It's a shame, because I really loved my first two orders.

these are good but i've used better patches. normally i'm able to wash my face and the patch stays on, but these easily rub off when wet. they also don't work fast enough.

Worked really well for little spot treatments! Used on pimples still under the skin before bed and woke up to a white head ready to be popped and start healing!
Must have in my glam bag 5

I purchased these awhile back from YesStyle (to hit free shipping min requirement) but since I rarely get breakouts I had not used them. Recently in the last few weeks on two occasions I got one of those under skin zits that does not develop into a white head but just a bump and you usually just have to wait out. On both of those occasions I did my normal evening skin routine of washing, toner, serums, & moisturizer. I waited awhile while everything soaked in and before bed I put one of these little patches on my zit and went to sleep. The patch stayed in place and the next morning the zit was considerably improved. The first time it was gone by morning. This last one went down to where I could feel where it was but it was no longer a raised bump. Will 100% keep a pack of these on hand at all times!
K beauty staple, it's my HG! 5

I learned about these a few years ago and now they're a staple. I'm blemish free at a young 57 yo, but I recently got a giant blemish on my chin. I washed my face gently, and added this patch for at least 24 hours. It gently brings the gunk to the surface and removes it while keeping it protected, and it's invisible. The first time I used it, it seemed like magic it worked so well at removing all the gunk. This time, it brought it to the surface, and probably needed several more hours to fully release on its own. But the patch was expired, hence my recent repurchase of these at 21 Days of Beauty. I did end up helping things along on my own, gently toned it, added another patch in case anymore gunk needed to be expelled, then finally dabbed a bit of AHA on it. It healed nicely with a minimum of hyperpigmentation on my dark skin. Sometimes I'll dab a bit of centella ampoule as well for healing. Leave it to K beauty to come up with something so gentle and effective without being in any way drying. Having dry skin and blemishes is a tricky combo for me. But they've got you covered. Love it!
