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.
Wanted to try something different from the Mighty Patches because I think they just don't do it for me. The COSRX patches come in a variety of sizes, which I don't really care about because most of my pimples are similarly sized. To get the most out of your patches, apply them after cleansing and drying your face. The pimple has to be white and juicy, like about to pop. I leave it on my face overnight or for 12+ hours and it does not budge (and I sleep with a blanket over my face!). It sucks out most of the pus of the pimple, but you might have to squeeze the rest out with clean hands or cleanse afterward. Another thing I don't like about the patches is that the edge you peel up first becomes bent and doesn't stick on your face. I feel that could be fixed by using tweezers but I don't have one. Pimple patches are really just personal preference, so I might like it but someone else might not.

I got these hoping to find a better option compared to mighty patch. Lets just say im very dissatisfied. They don't stick very well, dont absorb as much debri from your pimples, thick, and almosy look like there are bubbles in the patch when you pull it off the strip. Not sure if i got defective batch, because everyone raves about these. I do like that they come in a large pack with different sizes, but overall i will not be repurchasing.

Fake panoxyl works way better

i have bought this twice and was gifted the master patches as well and i really enjoy them. i personally have no tried other pimple patches and honestly dont't really want to because i enjoy these so much. it pulls out sooo much gunk! my pimples flatten out after a couple of hours with the patch on and they get less red with multiple uses.

I like using these overnight when I get a pimple. For best results use a small amount of serum or moisturizer before applying the patch to avoid dryness.

These are very noticable on the skin & stick up a bit as well. They dont seem to do anything. I like the mighty patch brand a lot more.

Skip these, buy the Hero acne patches; they actually work.

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!

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!

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!

Doesn't work at all I rather keep purchasing zitstika

You really have to have a bare/clean face. If u have moisturizer or anything it will not stick. This is good sometimes. It will pull everything out. But other times I will leave it for 12 hours and it won't do anything.

I really liked the results from Peace out patches, but I break out a lot, so paying $22 every other week wasn't a solution. These are just as good, I like that there are different patch sizes. Maybe it's being too picky, but I wish they would include less of the smallest size, because I almost never get breakouts that are as small as the patch. I notice the smallest ones being less effective. Overall, great product and next time I will buy a jumbo. I saw a lot of reviews say, that patches come off, but I didn't notice that when applied on dry clean skin as suggested. They start coming off even if there's any skincare, even essence or toner underneath.

They are so convenient I can wear them with makeup on because they're barely noticeable. They are also great to wear overnight! I always buy these they're great.
:) from Earth
I love these, they're great for any big acne spots. I just put them on overnight and by the morning the spot is pretty much gone, or at least much less inflamed. I would recommend these!

I received this product for free from Influenster and COSRX in exchange for my honest review. I've used quite a lot of different pimple patches in the past and this is the only effective one I've ever used. It reduced inflammation and redness in the area and doesn't even leave a spot. I absolutely love it.

* I received these products for free in exchange for my honest opinion * I normally get under the skin pimples so I used tried on one of those! It didn't completely make it go away as I didn't think it would! It did however make it less red and less sore to the touch and It did seem to go away quicker!

If you struggle with white heads and clogged pours these are a must. They work in just a few hours and when removed you can see the results. Overnight the pimple is drawn out and almost every time will be flat. I highly recommend these as unlike other brands they stay on very well.
Diana from Bakersfield, California, USA
I liked them. They were complimentary from influenster! I like how different sizes came so I can choose. Stayed on through the night
T from Orange County, Ca
These along with the black labeled ones are my go to. They have the best price and work great! I've tried other brands and they all work great but I always find myself back to these. I get small little spots along with huge hormonal acne and these come with different sized ones and my gooodness do they help so much! They draw out all that gunk that's deep underneath. If you have those deep hormonal volcanoes these help draw it to the surface and alleviate the pain. You'll get the white head so you can extract (safely or go to a derm or facialist if you can) idk about cystic acne since I don't suffer from that.
Gabriela from Los Angeles, California, USA
Though I received these products for free from Influenster and COSRX in exchange for my honest review, I had been purchasing these basic patches for years prior thanks to a recommendation by blogger Andeelayne. Love the different sizes and quantity of patches. So easy to put on, leave overnight, and wake up with reduced pimple! Will always keep these in my arsenal for my battle against acne!
