Review on Say Goodbye To Acne With SMARTMED Cover Dot - Hydrocolloid Treatment For Skin Blemishes (24 Dots) by Hector Sosa

I began purchasing these acne "pimple patches" a while ago when I heard from a a vlogger in Japan about the CosRx brand version of them. I traveled to S Korea last summer and purchased a nice sturdy supply of those and they worked beautifully. However, I will say that I think these are better. I appreciate the packaging, for one thing. It is very easy to get these off and onto your acne without actually touching the sticky part of the patch with your fingers. The only problem I've had with that design is accidentally pulling the opposite way or making the patch stretch out a little, but that really doesn't affect the effectiveness of these much at all. Also.THESE THINGS WILL STAY ON THROUGH ANYTHING. Shower, sweat, swimming.ANYTHING. The downside to that is that they are a little painful to take off and do leave a little red mark on your skin if you are sensitive, so just be aware of that. Also, these work much better (and this goes for all pimple patches) if they go on an open or recently popped whitehead. Sometimes they work on whiteheads that are "sealed", but not all the time. They do pull out a lot of gunk on your nose, I have noticed. So if you have a lot of oil/sebum there, these will out that stuff out. Overall, they are just really satisfying to use and peel off. Plus, they work!
