Hydrocolloid 96%.
Salicylic 0.7%. Centella 1.5%. Tea Tree 1.5%.

36 transparent patches in 2 sizes (9 + 12 mm), 0.03 mm thick. The hydrocolloid creates a moist seal that absorbs the fluid from a whitehead in 6-8 hours. Salicylic 0.7% (lipid-soluble) exfoliates inside the pore. Tea Tree and Centella calm the surrounding skin. Day or night. Invisible under makeup.

What do you think about transparent pimple patches with this formulation: Hydrocolloid 96%, Salicylic Acid 0.7%, Tea Tree Oil 1.5%, Centella Asiatica extract 1.5%? 36 patches, 2 sizes (9 + 12 mm), 0.03 mm thickness. Worn 6-8h on inflamed whiteheads. Pros: occlusive moist healing environment, absorbs exudate, lipid-soluble salicylic enters the pore, anti-inflammatory adjuvants. Limits: doesn't treat cystic acne, doesn't work on pimples that haven't surfaced. How does it compare to plain hydrocolloid patches without active ingredients?

How it works

Four ingredients. Four jobs.

Hydrocolloid 96% — the absorbent seal

Mechanism

Hydrocolloid dressings come from wound care. They create a moist, sealed environment over the pimple. Serous exudate and sebum are pulled into the gel layer, which turns visibly opaque (white) when full. The seal also keeps fingers and external bacteria out — no more nighttime picking.

Salicylic Acid 0.7% — the lipid-soluble exfoliant

Chemistry

BHA, fat-soluble — unlike glycolic. Diffuses past the sebum plug and exfoliates inside the pore wall, freeing the blocked content. 0.7% is the EU cosmetic limit for leave-on (the patch is rinsed off — minimal systemic exposure).

Tea Tree 1.5% + Centella 1.5% — the calming pair

Literature

Tea Tree (Melaleuca alternifolia) terpinen-4-ol has documented anti-bacterial action against C. acnes in vitro at low concentrations. Centella asiatica (madecassoside, asiaticoside) is repeatedly studied for reducing erythema and supporting barrier recovery. Adjuvants, not magic — they help the redness around the pimple, the hydrocolloid does the absorbing.

What they don't fix

Honest

A patch works on an inflamed pimple that has a visible white head. It can't reach a cystic pimple, a closed comedone, or one that hasn't formed yet. For chronic acne, the patches are damage control, not treatment — you want a routine with proper actives or a dermatologist.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know when to remove it?

When the patch turns visibly opaque (white). That's the gel absorbing exudate. After 6-8 hours, lift it gently — if the area looks fully cleaned, you're done; otherwise apply a fresh patch.

Can I wear them under makeup?

Yes — 0.03 mm and transparent. Apply on clean, dry skin first, then make up over it. Note: foundation may discolor the patch slightly, but it stays invisible at conversational distance.

Should I use these on cystic acne?

No. Patches work on inflamed pimples with a visible white head. Cystic acne sits deep, has no surface opening for the hydrocolloid to drain. For chronic or cystic acne, see a dermatologist.

9 mm or 12 mm — which one?

9 mm for small isolated pimples (most days). 12 mm for larger or for pimples with a halo of redness you want covered. The patch should fully cover the area, not just sit on top.
