Pimple Patches
Beyond makeup tutorials and dance challenges, TikTok is also a platform where you can easily find skincare tips and tricks. One of the latest trends on the app has people sticking hydrocolloid bandages over their acne overnight so it’ll disappear. Hydrocolloid serves as a barrier for the skin while absorbing impurities, like the pus from your pimples, from within. However, removing big and sticky bandages can irritate the skin, which is why you may also opt for pimple patches.
Pimple patches are more suitable for the skin on your face as they are less sticky and easier to remove. Since they’re smaller, you can target the spot directly without affecting the surrounding skin. To help you achieve clear skin overnight, we’ve gathered 13 pimple patches of different shapes and sizes that treat your acne.
1. Rooki
If you’re already trying to get rid of acne, why not look cute as you do it? The Mission Critical Acne Patches from Rooki are pink and shaped like hearts. The patches are also made with hydrocolloid, so they work just like the bandages in the TikTok videos, except these are way more adorable.
The patches come in a pack of 36 with 2 different sizes included. It is also a limited edition launch, so you’ll have to be quick if you’d like to get your hands on it.
Price: $18
Shipping fee: $3.50, free standard shipping for orders over $50

One of the most popular pimple patches in the market, COSRX’s Acne Pimple Master Pad is a must-have for K-beauty fans. It comes in a set of 24 with 3 different sizes to tackle any kind of acne that might pop up. I personally use this and can confirm that using it has made my zits shrink or disappear completely overnight.
For pimples that appear next to each other, there’s the AC Collection Acne Patch, which is a bigger, oval-shaped patch. Or, for times when you’re headed out, COSRX also has the Clear Fit Master Patch, which is ultra-thin and meant to look unnoticeable under light makeup.
