LE GUSHE Korean Pimple Patches for Face (78 Dots) - Hydrocolloid Acne Patches with Tea Tree Oil - Invisible Zit Stickers - Dermatologist Tested - Korean Skin Care

I have chronic hormonal acne that has not gone away with years of both OTC treatments & prescription medication and was introduced to pimple patches a year ago as a method of dealing with the worst of it. I've been using different brands each time (and sharing them with my housemate) and bought this one because I thought the name was funny. But actually, out of the 6 brands I've tried, this is THE BEST. The packaging is great. The dots come on perforated paper (split down the middle of each row) so they are easy to remove from the plastic without creasing. The plastic sheets are not a bunch of tiny perforated squares but rather long strips that stay attached when you only take off one dot, so you are not dealing with throwing out a billion little slivers of plastic each time you use any. The bag comes with multiple sheets each in their own smaller packet that are easy to open, then the bag itself has a resealing zipper so the open packet stays fresh. The size of the dots is good, not too big and not too small. The dots are very good at staying put and I've even had them stay on just fine if I apply moisturizer or sunscreen on the surrounding skin and it accidentally gets on it. They've survived being out in the rain. I could get them to stay on places with beard/body hair even and they wouldn't yank it out when I removed them. The amount of gunk they soak up is great. If you have a particularly nasty refilling cyst/pimple, you do need to remember to remove it within a few hours or it has the chance of getting really mushy (and turning to goo when you try to peal it off), but this is expected behavior and better than 2 of the brands I tried that would only soak up to a certain point and then whatever formed past that would build up in/on the skin again. They are not completely invisible (no hydrocolloid patch is) but they are a lot less noticeable than most other brands. The only other one that did better was tinted tan to match the skin but only looked OK on certain skin tones (worked better on me than my tanner housemate), so I think untinted like these is the way to go. I don't know what CICA is but compared to patches that say they only contain tea tree oil, these handle inflamation way better. The skin is flatter and barely (if at all) red by the time I remove the patch. I tend to get really nasty deep pimples that refill repeatedly, but these patches have like a 90% success rate on preventing them from refilling because they deal with the inflamation that's causing it. Price wise, these are middle of the road (at least for the big 100+ packs), but it's better when they're on sale. Worth it regardless. TL;DR best pimple patches, highly recommend

Worked great and got the job done!!! It cleared up my blemishes overnight which really shocked me! Considering the luck I’ve had recently while trying so many different types of hydrocolloid patches. The one thing I would add to this line of products, if at all possible, would be to also make packages with either all “night time” or all “daytime patches. I tend to only use them at night so it would be more beneficial for me to buy a pack of just nighttime ones. UPDATE: I recently googled best hydrocolloid acne patches of 2021 and I was reading reviews on different websites about their picks for “Top 10” or “Top 15.” I was shocked to see this brand on some of the lists. I was even more shocked when I searched it on Amazon & learned I had previously purchased them & didn’t even remember! I’ve tried SO many different brands since then that I’ve lost track somewhere along the way. There are a few brands I really seem to LOVE, but they are SO pricey! Ive recently discovered a few companies that make & sell these patches on Amazon & not only have great results but are very cost-effective. I’ve got to where I don’t pay much attention to online reviews on these b/c SO many of them are fake or coerced. After seeing I had purchased these awhile back I wasn’t going to bother updating my review but after wearing them a few times I wanted to reiterate how effective they are. Some companies advertise how thin their patches are or they’ll say it contains salicylic acid or Teatree oil…. I’ve come to learn the basic patches, like these, with just hydrocolloid seem to work the best. The ones that contain “drying” ingredients for your acne also dry your skin out, which is a recipe for disaster when it comes to breakouts! Drying out your skin causes your body to produce even more oil & in return your skin will continue breaking out! When acne begins scabbing up it takes much longer to heal. Understandably the thicker patches can also absorb more fluid & in return stay moist which heals your skin so much faster than drying it up! I can’t say enough Great things about this brand!! There a little thicker than some other brands but that’s a GOOD thing when it comes to quickly clearing up your acne. *I already used a few of the patches in the picture but wanted to show how well these are made & how thick & durable they are!*

This was my first shot with hydrocolloid patches (ie. pimple patches), and overall I was quite impressed. I think my expectations were a teensy bit too high initially, but after giving these a full trial, I think it's safe to say that these are a solid product. 👍🏻 Depending on the type of pimple, you'll likely get slightly different results. I was hoping that these would help bring hidden pimples to the surface, but that didn't turn out to be the case. If the pimple is under the skin and the skin is NOT broken, it won't pull the pus up to the surface. Rather, and possibly even more ideally, placing these patches onto closed pimples with fully intact skin will actually SHRINK the pimple - within a day typically, maybe two if it's super bad, it'll just... poof! Disappear. Alternatively, if you place this on a pimple that has either a) already breached the surface or b) has been picked previously, it WILL draw the pus towards the surface. This is nice because then it's as simple as taking a tissue and gently wiping it away after that. This can work in as little as an hour, though it's ideal to keep it on for longer if possible. What these basically do is they keep your wound (because pimples ARE technically wounds) completely sealed off from the air, dirt, germs, oils, and other possible irritants that would affect the healing process (not to mention they keep the temptation to pick far away!) and allows the pimple to heal extra fast. It's like a bandaid, but on steroids kinda? lol The hydrocolloid in the patches only speeds up the healing even further, providing a perfectly sealed, moist environment for healing. While a picked at pimple may start to scab and dry up after a time, with these patches the skin is kept safe and soft, healing at it's own perfect rate. Also, if you struggle with excoriation like I do, then you're really in luck! Hydrocolloid patches were initially created to treat small cuts and wounds - so that coupled with the small, convenient sizes make this a perfect combo to fight bad picking habits! With the patch on, you can't pick at or reopen old wounds, forcing you to allow them to heal. I wear them in between showers, so about two days at a time, and have had no issues work then falling off, though your skin type may effect this. To note, I have a mix of oily/dry skin, and for the most part had no issues. I leave them off for anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours after my shower to allow the skin too "breathe," and then I replace them. For pimples, I find it can take anywhere between about half a day to 3 days to fully heal, though if you're confident you won't pick at it, you could probably remove it even sooner. The length of time is just a bit of extra precaution on my part. For other cuts and wounds, it REALLY depends on the severity just how long you'll need to wear it. For scratches and scrapes, 1-2 days usually works for me. For blisters, blood blisters, scabs, deeper cuts, and craterous wounds caused from picking or scratching, I've found that healing can take anywhere from a day to a full week. Every body is different, so you'll have to try it out yourself to get an exact feel for what you'll need ultimately. In review, what I like about this product: + Convenient and easy to use + Not glaringly visible at all - you could probably go to school or even work (depending on your job, ie. not working directly with customers all day) with them on and it wouldn't cause much of a stir + Rarely fall off or lose their adhesiveness (unless you attempt to reuse it (don't), replace it, or shower/bathe with it) + Draws pus towards the surface of open wounds/pimples, while shrinking and ultimately erasing closed/hidden wounds/pimples. + Comes in 3 different sizes + I have very sensitive skin and had zero issues with these causing any form of irritation, redness, etc. + Once these went on, I almost never noticed them after that. It's like they're not even there. What I dislike about this product: - If you only have the occasional breakout, these are great to have on hand, but if you're fighting a war, these will be gone within the week, if not sooner. I recommend buying full size hydrocolloid patches and using scissors to cut them to the size you need; a little bit more work for a lot more savings. - The seller seems skeezy asf, and while the product is great, I wouldn't purchase from LeCushe again. They promise you a $15 Amazon credit for a 5 star review, which is not only an ethical concern about honesty, but is against Amazon's TOS for offering incentives for positive reviews. - I never could find it what the heck the difference between the "night" and "day" patches were. I honestly don't think there was one, so marketing then as two separate patches that do two separate things just seems weird and dishonest to me. - There were no directions, and while it's pretty self explanatory, they would have still been appreciated. - For whatever reason, the "night" patches came in the advertised 3 different sizes, which I very much liked, but the "day" patches were all the same size, which left me with an awkward amount of just that one size after the others ran out. - There were perforations on the sheets of the "night" patches that allowed for easy removal, but the "day" sheets had no perforations, making them notably harder to peel off. With no instructions or explanation, I found this to be pretty annoying. **NOTE: THIS RATING IS SOLELY FOR THE PRODUCT ITSELF, NOT THE SELLER!**

These are by far, the best pimple patches I’ve ever tried. My boyfriend even uses them from time to time LOL they don’t smell weird and they’re sticky so no need to worry if they fall off. I also like that they blend with your skin- I’ve worn them to work before on accident and only once did someone notice them lol they’re pretty thick I would say! Easy to remove from your skin after use. They’re a bit hard to put with your fingers but I use tweezers and that works! As for function, THEY WORK! For reference, I have oily + dry combo. It depends on the weather and time of year lol but within 12 hours of putting them on, you can def notice a significant change. I’ve used them for about 2 years now, consistently, and have never had an allergic reaction or irritation or anything negative. Would recommend! They’re worth every single penny!

I fricken LOVE these!!! This is my fifth time buying them. I feel like I don’t have to conserve them and can use them freely because you get so many for such a great price (the mighty patches are like $13 for 32). Plus, they work!! They stick to your face, and they actually suck the gook out of your pimples. They’re also clear, so they’re more inconspicuous than patches like Starface — I was embarrassed with Starface patches because I often wear patches during the day to prevent picking, and it was like a giant sign saying “look everyone, i have a pimply face!” (even though these aren’t very noticeable — i mean, there is something on your face so it’s not like they’re invisible lol — once they start to turn white from sucking the stuff out of your skin, they do become a bit more noticeable!). I never write reviews, but I felt compelled to share so that others could discover these. Don’t hesitate to buy if you need them.

I was looking for a cheap value pack, but ultimately I threw them out before using even the first two cards of patches. Overall they worked well (they sucked up the white heads mostly), but they also had two issues: 1) if they got wet they dissolved/softened and were hard to peel off. Kinda weird. 2) If they’re left on over 6 hours they leave blotchy red marks (bigger than pimple area) that eventually had to scab and peel off.

I'm not an expert on acne patches but I've tried a few in the last couple years and these are by far the most effective! I'm 28 and use retinol, so most of the few zits I get are right at the surface and don't need any help healing, but occasionally I'll get these terrible deep ones on my forehead or chin that are large and take weeks to come to a head on their own. Normally when I get one of these I'm stuck in a cycle of trying to pop it because it's so painful, getting a little bit of gunk out but mostly just causing it to get weepy, waking up to bigger bump full of fluid the consistency of what you'd find in a blister, and once again trying to pop it (or at least get some of the fluid out). It's not pretty. Coincidentally I had just run out of my old patches before getting the worst zit I've had in probably a year, and these arrived on day three of this cycle, ready to be put to the ultimate test. I put a large one on overnight and had no trouble with it staying on. When I peeled it off in the morning, the inside was horribly slimy, and I thought that there was just too much fluid coming out that the patch couldn't handle it - until I looked closer and saw that it had gotten EVERYTHING out! I've never used a hydrocolloid patch that pulled out the entire contents of a pimple, just ones that helped dry it out and bring it to a head. I'm sufficiently impressed. My only criticisms are that there seems to be a lot of unnecessary packaging (what's the point of each sheet of 20+ patches being sealed in a sterile package when it's only going to be sterile the first time you use that sheet?) and it's not clear what the difference between the day and night ones are. Great product though and a good value.

These patches work so great! It’s so nice to just put them on and forget about them (or even sleep in them) while they work their magic! When I use them, they help reduce the swelling of pimples and pull out lots of gunk! Always nice to have something to help speed up healing time for annoying pimples!
