Focus on anti-pimple patches

What if we told you that you could speed up the healing of your acne pimples while protecting them from bacteria? Well, it’s possible with anti-pimple patches! Read on and find out how they work and how they can benefit you.

Hydrocolloid to fight acne

Anti-pimple patches are small stickers that you apply directly onto pimples. They’re primarily made of hydrocolloid, which absorbs excess liquid from the pimple, reducing inflammation and shortening healing time. As a result, hydrocolloid helps eliminate pimples without drying out your skin.
Thanks to this powerful ingredient, anti-pimple patches also cut off the oxygen supply to the tissues, eliminating acne-causing bacteria.

Tip:

Avoid popping your own pimples as much as possible. You could make the situation worse by spreading bacteria to other areas of your skin.

When to use an anti-pimple patch

Anti-pimple patches can be used effectively in a number of situations.

  1. When the pimple starts to become inflamed: Hydrocolloid helps reduce inflammation, so applying a patch to a pimple that is red or swollen can be quite effective.
  2. When you accidentally pop a pimple by scratching it: Applying a hydrocolloid patch to a pierced pimple can minimize damage by absorbing the remaining liquid and protecting the affected area from infection.
  3. When the pimple reaches maturity: If the pimple stops growing and turns white, it's probably mature and ready for treatment. Anti-pimple patches can help by absorbing pus without piercing the pimple, which helps reduce the risk of scarring.
  4. When the pimple is located in an area prone to rubbing: If that’s the case, apply a patch to protect it and reduce irritation.

How do anti-pimple patches work?

Anti-pimple patches are easy to use in three simple steps:

  1. Clean your skin thoroughly and pat it dry;
  2. Gently peel off the patch and apply it directly to the pimple;
  3. Leave it on overnight. You can also wear the patch during the day and conceal it with makeup.

How to use makeup when wearing a pimple patch?

It's a little tricky, but totally possible. Here's a routine to help guide you:

  • Cleanse your face like you normally do, making sure your skin is completely dry. Then apply the patch to the pimple, making sure it sticks properly to your skin.
  • Apply base makeup over and around the patch to blend it in with your skin and create an even base. Make sure you choose a product that suits your skin tone and type.
  • Apply foundation over your entire face, blending it in with a brush or sponge. Avoid using too much foundation on the patch, or you might make it more visible.
  • Cover the patch by dabbing on a little concealer (be careful not to move the patch!). If the patch is transparent, just apply a thin layer of foundation or powder to even out the colour.
  • Complete your makeup routine using blush, a bronzer or an illuminator, but make sure you don’t use too much around the patch. You might also want to use a spray fixative to prolong the hold of your makeup and give it a more natural look.
  • Fix your makeup and mattify the area on and around the patch using a light layer of loose or compact powder. A translucent powder is recommended as it helps ensure you don’t use too much powder.
