PURITO All Care Recovery Cica-Aid 5 ingredients
These pimple patches, which are both vegan and cruelty-free, offer a calming and soothing experience. They blend seamlessly with the skin, being nearly invisible. However, when it comes to accelerating the healing of blemishes, they may not be as effective as some other available spot patches.
If you're an acne-haver and have never tried pimple patches, do yourself a favor and indulge. These keep my active breakouts clean(!) and keep my fingers off of them(I've struggled with acne picking for like, my whole life). Don't love their disposability (we all make way too much trash) but will make an exception here and use responsibly as they really are that good.

Game changer
These have changed the game for me. I'm a picker so spots usually last for months for me, but this flattens them down and takes a good majority of the rubbish out. This gets rid of 90% of the spot, and leaves just pigment behind. It's not 100% healed but speeds the process up by about 2 weeks
They get the job done, but not as well as other pimple patch options. For whatever reason they tear off a layer of my skin along with the pus it absorbed. My mom has had the same issue. Maybe it's fine if you have thicker skin.
