Korean skincare products are great. Whatever issue you have,
there’s a cool product to help. As a result, Korean people tend to have really
nice skin. Since living here, I’ve become quite a fan of the skincare products.
Thankfully, it’s easy to find cheap, high quality products. Otherwise, I’d be
broke.
A few weeks ago, I noticed that one of my middle school
students had these teeny, tiny bandage squares on her face. I thought maybe she’d
had moles removed or a biopsy done. It turned out that these were acne patches.
While buy contacts lens solution, I came across a box of
acne patches and decided to give them a try. Unfortunately, I had a pimple on
my chin that just wasn’t responding to my usual treatments so I needed
something new. I’m happy to say that the acne patches work!
Now, the patches aren’t a miracle cure. I wore mine
overnight and I still had the pimple in the morning but it was better. The
redness was still there but the inflammation was gone. I’ll take a flat red
spot over an inflamed, swollen red spot any day.
I did a quick Google search and found this article about
acne patches. It looks like some patches are designed to deliver medication and
some are designed to reduce the inflammation. I assume I got the nonmedicated
inflammation kind but, since the box is in Korean, I can’t be sure.
Acne patches are a useful product. I wouldn’t recommend
wearing them out like my student did because they are pretty obvious and
somewhat medicinal looking but they can definitely help with a pimple.
This same brand is available on the Walgreens website.

I think this picture series means the patches will reduce the swelling.

The patches come in two sizes.
