Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Hydrocolloid is technically not an INCI ingredient. It is a type of material used to dress uninfected wounds.

Hydrocolloid is coated with a mix of gelatin, pectin, xanthan gum, carrageenan, and other biopolymers.

Hydrocolloid patches made for treating pimples often have other ingredients, such as tea tree oil, salicylic acid, niacinamide, glycolic acid, and more. Unfortunately, unless a company discloses this information, we won't have a way to know what other ingredients are present.

When hydrocolloid is applied to a wound, the polysaccharides and polymers absorb water to form a gel. These moist conditions help promote wound healing without breaking down cell tissue.

A study from 2021 found Hydrocolloid may aid in scar healing.

This patch never disappoints. I wear it overnight and the pimple is drained by the morning. Definitely worth the price!

Love these! This product works really well for when I have a cluster of breakouts in a certain area on my face. It really sucks the puss out of my pimples which makes it easier for me to heal with other products. I also like to use these on my nose and chin just to smoothen it out.

I really do recommend these if you suffer from cluster breakouts or just need bigger pimple patches. However, Show more
