ZitSticka Killa Microdart Pimple Patches for Face - Most Potent Pimple Patch with Fast-Acting Microdarts - For Deep, Early-Stage Zits with Salicylic Acid - Regular 8 Count with Cleaning Swab

As someone who has tried quite a few different brands of pimple patches (ZitSticka, Mighty Patch, COSRX, Daolyo, BIORICA, Avarelle, GRAMRIGHT, etc.), I can say with complete confidence that their body patches work the best. I'll rank all the brands I have tried from best to worst just in case anyone wants to try others. So far, I would rank them like so: #1: ZitSticka Goo Getter Hydrocolloid Patches for Body Zits (~$18 for 9 square patches) #1.2: ZitSticka Goo Getter Pimple Patches (~$16 for 36 patches) (UPDATE 1/2026): I believe they've changed the formula for their pimple patches. The last time I purchased them, the packaging was hot pink instead of the original white and pastel pink. I did NOT like the hot pink ones. Bummer. I recommend you purchase their BODY PATCHES. This brand also sells large, square patches for your body. Those still come in the original white and pastel pink packaging, and I actually think they work even better than the smaller round ones, so I just cut those into smaller squares and use them on my face. I've stopped using the ones in the hot pink packaging altogether. They contain Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid like most other pimple patches, but they ALSO contain Vitamin C and Niacinamide, which are great for hyperpigmentation. (OLD REVIEW): These are by far the best, but unfortunately also the most expensive, so I would use them sparingly. And for the love of god, CUT THEM into smaller pieces. It'll save you a lot of money. Do not place an entire patch on a pimple unless that pimple is huge. You only really need to cover your pore, and pores are tiny. These are pretty thick as well, and the adhesive is quite strong, so they'll still stick no matter how small they are. Also, I'd only really use these on those angry, painful pimples you fear might leave a scar. These patches have prevented a lot of scars for me, so I wouldn't waste them on whiteheads or smaller pimples. UPDATE (1/2026): New #2: ROSELYNBOUTIQUE Pimple Patches Effective Blemish Control (~$13 for 300 patches) I was quite impressed by these, to be honest. I didn't expect them to work, but they actually hold their own in comparison to more expensive brands. They work a tiny bit slower (which I expected), but they've helped flatten quite a few of my pimples. I use ZitSticka for the really problematic pimples, and these for the pimples that aren't AS bad but still need to be drained. They're thin and discreet, but they do have a herbal-y scent, so just keep that in mind. Unfortunately, this brand's patches sometimes sell out, so make sure to have a backup brand. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid, and Cica. Did I mention there's 300 of them though? UPDATE (1/2026): #3: Daolyo Pimple Patches (~$10 (~$7 on sale) for 300 patches) These are basically the same as the ROSELYNBOUTIQUE ones—just a tiny bit cheaper and a tiny bit worse. I prefer ROSELYNBOUTIQUE, but those are sometimes sold out, and these are oftentimes on sale, so I buy these just so I'll have a huge stash. These are also on the thinner side, so they're discreet, but they DO sometimes fall off in my sleep (especially the ones I put on my chin) and also have a faint herbal-y scent. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid and Calendula Oil. #4: BIORICA (~$10 for 216 patches) UPDATE (1/2026): I tried these patches for a couple months, but they weren't really doing it for me, so I've since found some cheaper alternatives (see above). These are worth a try if you have sensitive skin, as they don't contain any Salicylic Acid or Calendula Oil. Unfortunately, IMO, they're not as effective as other brands. They loosen up and fall off once they absorb a lot of moisture (granted, I do cut them into smaller pieces, so that might be on me), and they turn into a sticky mess if I leave them on too long. Still, everyone's skin is different, so they're definitely worth a try. They come with a pimple popper tool, and their packaging is by far THE CUTEST, so I'll miss that the most. They also only contain Tea Tree Oil, as far as I could tell. #5: Avarelle (~$15 for 80 patches; ~$8 for 40 patches) These are probably the thinnest ones I've ever used. If you want a practically-invisible patch, you should try these. The adhesive is pretty average, so they're not the best but they're also not the worst. They come in a variety of sizes, and some of them are HUGE, so if you cut them into smaller pieces, you'll get a ton more uses out of them. They're not worth the $15 IMO though, so I've now found some cheaper alternatives. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Calendula Oil and Cica. #6: Mighty Patch (~$13 for 36 patches) These work very well and have a decent hold, but they're also kind of expensive for the amount of patches that they give you, so for just a few more dollars, I'd rather buy the ZitSticka ones since they work A LOT better for me, and for a better price, I'd rather get the ROSELYNBOUTIQUE/Daolyo ones, since they come with 300 instead of 36. Case in point, I don't really use these anymore, but they're a good option. Also, the only ingredient I could find was Hydrocolloid. #7: GRAMRIGHT (I don't even remember) #8: COSRX (~$14 for 96 patches) COSRX patches used to work really well, and the brand itself is great, but I'm putting them dead last because the last batch I purchased left awful, red burn-like marks. I don't know if they've since fixed their formula, but it took me a very long time to heal my literal WOUNDS, so I would never use these again. That's it for that! Additionally, I want to mention that the white stuff you see on the patches is not necessarily "gunk" from your pimple. It's really just the hydrocolloid reacting to moisture and forming a gel-like substance. Hydrocolloid patches are meant to absorb liquid—*any* liquid. That's why they're used for blisters as well. This means you can literally put them under running water and they will all turn white. It doesn't necessarily mean that the water has "gunk." Still, they work well, but I think it's just a common misconception for people to think of the white stuff as pus lol it's not. I hope this has been helpful :)

Loved these! Saw result after first use, they helped dry out my breakouts overnight and reduced redness. Simple, effective, and def worth it!

My FAV pimple patches!!!!! Love the different size options, not just all one size. They work every single time I use them! Make sure you let all your other serums set in your skin before you put these on and they will stick so well! I have tried many other brands but this one I always repurchase🩷

Overall, I like the product. I have a problem with hormonal and cystic acne. I'm switching birth controls and am experiencing some of the juiciest pimples I've ever had. Normally I use the CosRx pimple patches but I came across a review of this product on YouTube. Intrigued by the idea that little needles inject medication directly into the problem area, I did some research and I found so many websites claiming that this was THE pimple patch for acne like mine. I bought this zitsticka miracle patch and here I am. Swelling and Pimple Pain: the swelling decreased for most of my pimples when I took off the sticker. The size difference fell short of my expectations for the really juicy pimples and I didn't see much of a size difference after one sticker. It took 2 or 3 patches for drastic improvement on the juicy pimples. The sticker did help with how sensitive the pimple was to touch and I did notice a difference. This sticker does well for the normal pimples as far as swelling and pain is concerned and I did see improvement for normal pimples after one patch Redness and Irritation: I did not have any irritation with the stickers or the cleaning wipes that come in the package. I don't think I noticed a giant difference with redness but redness wasn't my main concern Pimple Patch Needle and Wipe Pain: the micro needles did hurt a little when I put the stickers on my very inflamed pimples but the pain was short lived. Otherwise, no pain associated with putting it on my less inflamed pimples or taking the sticker off the pimples. I found the wipes to be painless and they didn't sting my skin. Adhesion: the stickers stayed put and they didn't lift with one exception. I put another sticker on my very inflamed pimple (in the pictures) for a second day in a row and the pimple burst in the morning under the sticker and pus oozed from under the patch and down my cheek/chin. I felt very sexy in that moment. Price: they should get rid of the wipes and add more stickers to make it worth the price. I probably will not buy this product again unless they change the price or replace the wipes with more stickers. Update 12/12: Amazon notified me that a few people found my review helpful so I thought I would give a ~6 month update. One thing I forgot to mention is that this product is not a hydrocolloid patch and will not suck the juices out of your pimples if you accidentally pop one like I did when I was trying out the zitsticka patch. I had to let it drain before putting on a hydrocolloid sticker on the cystic pimple to help it drain all the way. I did not buy this product again and continue with my CosRx patches. The price detouredme from purchasing this again since the amount of pimples on my face at the time was more than the amount of stickers provided in one box. I also may be a bit biased against buying these again since my acne has calmed down tremendously after getting used to my new birth control pill (combined with topical prescrptions) and I no longer have the inflamed/cystic acne on the level I had over the summer. If it wasn't for an Amazon notification, I would have forgot about this product. I'm going to leave my initial review of 4 stars since the patches did help with swelling and inflammation but otherwise, this product was overpriced and forgettable.

I was a little skeptical at first because I’ve tried so many pimple patches that just sat on my skin and didn’t do much. But these actually work — and fast. The microdarts are the real game changer. You can feel a slight tingle when you first put it on, which I personally take as a good sign that it's doing something. I use them on those painful, under-the-skin zits that you can feel brewing before they even surface. I pop one of these on at night and by morning the bump is either completely gone or significantly reduced. It doesn’t dry out my skin either, probably thanks to the hyaluronic acid. They stay on really well through the night and don’t peel off like other patches I’ve tried. The price is a little high for only 20 patches, but honestly, I don't need to use them constantly. I save them for those annoying emergencies — the big, angry pimples that show up at the worst times — and they’ve never let me down. If you deal with those deep, hormonal breakouts or stubborn early-stage pimples, these are worth trying.

These patches are okay. They're the first brand I've used with microneedles, and I chose them for their good reviews. I will say by the time they arrived I hav had a cystic pimple for about 3 days, so it wasn't exactly "early stage" like it says on the box. Still, using 2 if these in 2 hour intervals did seem to help the inflammation. The change wasn't significant, but it was enough to help me stay focused at work instead of picking or touching my face. Note that my pimple never came to a head, and I did end up pikcing it eventually and then treating it with another brand of patch (Rael, sans needle). These seemed to speed the healing process much faster, but it may also just be my impatience. One thing to note: there is a bit of pain, or rather pricking that can be felt when applying these patches. It's very breif, but there. The needles are a lot more noticeable than I expected (when looking at the oatch before application), but I couldn't feel them after the patch was in place. I had to use 2 patches on my zit, but wish I could have made it longer with just one. I did find that the adhesive was a bit disappointing (these were on my chin) and wouldn't stay put for longer than 2 hours at a time. This was enough time for the needles to dissolve at least, but I would have liked to have worn one overnight. With the way they were sticking, that doesn't seem possible. Note that my face was clean and dry (no moisturizer or product) at the time of fpplication, and yes, I did use the cleansing pad and follow the instructions. Maybe I moved too much or my skin was oily, but these didn't seem to hold as well as other brands I've tried (Hero, Peaches, CORSX). Overall, I'm not displeased necessarily, but for the cost I would have liked these to perform a little better. Namely, longer wear, and more per package. Otherwise, they worked okay.

It's unfortunate that these patches are so expensive because they work so well. I purchased other microdart patches and they do not work at all. The combination of the wipes and the patches are amazing. It's easy to use, the patches stay on overnight and my zits are pretty much dead by the morning. I have very sensitive skin with rosacea and these patches do not irritate my skin.

Get cystic pimples and these are the only thing that work. The micro darts penetrate under my skin to help it heal faster. They also protect me from touching my skin which is good to too so I do not pop it and get a scar. The are expensive but worth it.

Does wonders!

These are just the best. Massive spot patches you can cut to size and they're nice and sturdy so no problems with them filling up too quickly and/or peeling off during the day or disappearing into the bedsheets at night. Not ideal under makeup as they are very thick but if you use them often enough on at-home days or overnight, you'll have way fewer concerns like that. Other patches I've tried either only work overnight or are so thin and flimsy they fill up almost immediately. These ones you can wear for hours or overnight for really troublesome spots or cysts, but you can also just pop them over a spot and sometime get the desired result in half an hour. They have really great absorbing qualities, I've also used them for odd stuff like a low level infection near a fingernail or on a mosquito bite that won't calm down.

Was very hopeful for these as they claim to be able to ‘kill’ an emerging zit.. unfortunately the claims are not true. I used 2 patches—the recommended amount for ‘harder to kill zits.’ 1 overnight, and 1 for 5ish hours while working from home. The new blind pimple that I could feel starting to form beneath my skin is still emerging. I’m going to try using a third patch (so basically 3/4 of the box) but I don’t have high hopes anymore. Might just be good for regular zits, not blind ones. Definitely better ones out there though for a fraction of the price if that’s the case.

Enough said :(

I’ve been using the ZitSticka KILLA Extra Strength patches for a few weeks now and they’ve honestly made a real difference in how I manage breakouts. These patches are easy to apply and actually work. Right away I noticed how firm they feel. They stick really well and don’t slide around, even when I’ve slept or worn makeup over them. The medical grade adhesive stays put and I never worry about them peeling off during the day. When I get a spot that’s angry or painful, I put a patch on overnight and by morning it’s noticeably calmer and smaller. The extra strength formula seems to get right to the core of the blemish. I’ve had stubborn pimples shrink much faster than I expected and those painful red ones are way less inflamed. I like that they’re pretty discreet too. You can barely see them on the skin, which means I can wear them during the day without feeling self conscious. Overall these feel like a higher quality version of traditional pimple patches and they actually deliver results. They’re not cheap but for the relief and faster healing I’ve gotten, they’re worth it. I’d recommend them to anyone dealing with occasional breakouts or painful spots.
