Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch Micropoint for Blemishes Patches

Most Helpful Positive Review

Effective for specific use cases

These patches are really great but only for specific use cases. Products like this are really finicky and kinda expensive. You end up using them sparingly and carefully. They are effective but only for certain types of breakouts. In my experience they're meant for small breakouts that are a day or t...wo from surfacing on areas of skin that are tin, flat, still, and hairless. This means that if you get a random breakout on places like your forehead, cheek, temple, it'll work great. They don't really work on areas like your nose, brow bone, lip, cupids bow, the curve of your jaw, and so on because these areas have things like thicker skin, distinct curves, hair, and or they're areas that stretch/wrinkle when you move your face. I would not recommend a product like this for someone who has or is experiencing a lot of breakouts, severe acne, or deep cystic breakouts. The patches are just not as effective on these types of breakouts and since these types of breakouts come in larger numbers, more frequently, you'd burn through your supply of patches real fast and be spending alot of money. In addition to the type of breakout and location on your face, these patches also get really finicky in the application because if you apply them on freshly cleaned skin at night you have to be extra gentle applying the rest of your routine in order to avoid bumping it off or disturbing the adhesion which sounds easier to accomplish than it is. The other option is to apply them over your finished routine however if you use something like a really wet gel moisturizer or use any products that are oily/greasy they won't stick and you end up wasting a patch so I recommend this method of application if you use a smooth moisturizer that you let sit for 30 seconds before sticking the patch on. This all being said I think these are great effective products, they just have a very specific use case.
