Kiehl's Truly Targeted Acne-Clearing Pimple Patch with Salicylic Acid 12 ingredients
Absolute perfect formula. It doesn't burn, and I wake up to results. Its too sticky to wear under makeup. I haven't tried it during the day or over makeup. But I love that it is clear. I highly recommend this product over any pimple patch. Pimple patches in public look awful! It's like wearing pajamas or a bonnet in public, save that for home!
Seems to help without causing irritation. Doesn't work as well as a pimple patch, but works well on emerging pimples. If you have an open newly popped pimple, use a pimple patch instead.
