Anyone with acne-prone skin [1] knows that dreaded feeling of a new breakout coming on. I have oily skin and break out quite often, especially around my period. Combating small whiteheads and blackheads is easy, but when I get those large hormonal-cyst blemishes, they make me feel horrible. I've tried numerous spot treatments but found that acne sticker patches have been the most effective. I've tested a few brands, but my current favorite is the Rael Acne Pimple Healing Patch [2] ($16).
While these patches don't make my breakouts magically disappear, I have noticed they go away so much faster. I sleep with one on at the first sight of a bump, and sometimes the blemish will be flat the next day with a small dark spot that fades within days. Other times, with more cyst-like blemishes, I've found they've come to a head and were able to be popped and healed much faster [3]. Either way, these have become my new holy-grail product that I see results with every time I use them.
Especially now that I'm wearing face masks [4] every time I leave the house, these have been great to combat my maskne [5] on my cheeks and chin. Shop all the brand's acne-fighting patches ahead.
Rael Acne Pimple Healing Patch
The Rael Acne Pimple Healing Patch [7] ($16) is the one I always use. It's strong enough to help reduce my breakout overnight. This is my personal favorite because you can barely see it on.
Rael Spot Control Cover
Sometimes when I have larger breakouts in clusters, this Rael Spot Control Cover [8] ($12) is a great way to combat them.
Rael Microneedle Acne Healing Patch
This Rael Microneedle Acne Healing Patch [9] ($12) is great to use when you first spot a breakout. The microcrystals help penetrate the blemish to clear it out quickly.
Rael Acne Healing Bundle
If you want them all, get the Rael Acne Healing Bundle [10] ($48). It comes with patches, a mask, and a spot corrector cream.
