What if we told you that you can get rid of acne pimples faster than ever? Read on and discover how these pimple patches work.
The power of hydrocolloid
Pimple patches come in the form of a small sticker that you apply directly to the pimple. The patches contain hydrocolloid, which absorbs excess liquid from the pimples, thereby reducing inflammation and the time it takes the pimple to heal. What's more, hydrocolloid also helps eliminate the pimple without drying out your skin. And the patches themselves cut off oxygen, which prevents bacteria from surviving to help eliminate pimples even faster.
Helpful tip:
Avoid trying to pop the pimples. You might only make the situation worse by spreading bacteria to other parts of your skin.
How do the patches work?
Pimple patches are very easy to use. Here's how...
- Cleanse your skin thoroughly and pat it dry.
- Gently peel off the patch and apply it directly to the pimple.
- Leave it on overnight. You can also wear the patches during the day if you like and camouflage them with a little concealer.
Psst...
Pimple patches only work on open pores, so they have no effect on subcutaneous pimples (the ones under your skin).
