Why Should I Use An Acne Patch?

Everyone knows the standard advice for managing breakouts: apply something to dry them out, don’t pick and give it time. Easier said than done. 

But that’s where acne patches, a Korean skincare staple, come in. 


What is an acne patch and how do they work?

Acne patches are clear stickers made of hydrocolloid that help breakout-fighting ingredients penetrate directly into your pimple. The patch allows the ingredients fully absorb into your skin, drawing out acne-causing bacteria, and excess dirt and oil. 

The best part? They are so easy to use. Stick it on and then ignore it for 8 - 12 hours (you can even sleep in them). When the clear patch turns white, it’s time to remove and reveal clearer skin.


But why a patch?

In short, patches help pimples heal faster. The patch format completely covers your breakout, creating a barrier from external factors that can worsen your blemish:

  • Prevent the build-up of external bacteria
  • Protect from accidental popping
  • Keep you from picking (we all do it, no judgement)
