Plagued with pesky pimples? While it happens to the best of us, zits and acne can be a serious nuisance. That’s where a pimple patch comes in. The K-beauty invention takes the place of popping or putting balms on your pimples by crafting soothing, patches that cure pimples in a snap. Simply pop a pimple patch over your troublesome skin and the patch will quickly reduce any redness or inflammation.
Think of these like tiny bandages: they protect your blemish from further dirt and grime while keeping your skin moisturized, letting the pimple heal in peace. We recommend placing it over your pimple before you go to bed – when you remove it in the morning, your skin will be flatter and less inflamed.
Or, put one on before hopping on a Zoom call – the patch will hide any redness or swelling. With that in mind, here are our favorite pimple patches available.
