"...we thought they might welcome it as a distraction from everything going on as well as a way to maintain some normalcy in their lives. We ended up launching with a healthcare provider giveaway campaign where we gave one of our Mighty Patches and a Rescue Balm to healthcare professionals on the front lines."
Once you stick ‘em on your zits, the hydrocolloid patches work by gently pulling out gunk to heal each pimple. Plus, they prevent you from picking which can cause scarring. Associate editor Abby Hepworth is also a fan of the Mighty Patch, but she prefers the Micropoint version which penetrates the skin to deliver acne-fighting ingredients under the surface.
They’re perfect for a single, large spot, but you can also use one patch to target an entire cluster of pimples at once. These are also ideal for chest acne, back acne, or anywhere else on your body where breakouts tend to take up more real estate.
"There are a must-have for anyone who breaks out. They prevent me from touching and picking at my zit, they stick so well compared to other brands, and they really suck out the pus. It's pretty gross to see but when that happens, the zit is flattened and sooo much better than previously. It really does help speed up the healing." —NYCGirl13
Promising review: "I love the Rescue Bomb. It’s the perfect addition to my skincare routine and brings down the redness significantly. My favorite thing about it is the texture: It’s so creamy and makes my skin feel great!" —Alexandra W
