These are fantastic and work just as well as the old ones. The centella seems to really help with the healing, especially if I’ve been naughty and picked. 🙈

Love these!! these pimple patches do help with healing and sucking the puss out of a pimple. You also get a lot of pimple patches (51).

These also stick well and aren't noticeable on the skin which I love because I get so irritated when a pimple patch is obviously on my skin. I really recommend this product.

I bought these from Stylevana UK.
