When a spot pops up, this Nexcare pimple patch is a simple, trusted way to cover and protect it. From 3M's well-known Nexcare first-aid brand, each thin, transparent hydrocolloid patch sits over a surfaced blemish and works like a sponge, absorbing oil and pus while shielding the spot from external irritation and from your own fingers. As it absorbs, the patch turns from clear to white, so you can see when it is done.
What makes these blemish patches so easy to reach for is their thin, discreet design and generous 64-patch pack. The beveled, dome-shaped edge keeps them low-profile and comfortable, and an easy-grab tab lets you apply each patch without touching the sticky side, keeping dirt and grease off the blemish. They are non-medicated and drug-free, latex-free, and gentle enough for most skin types, day or night.
These patches are a nice fit for anyone with surfaced whiteheads or popped spots who wants a discreet, protective cover, and a great way to stop picking. Apply a patch to a clean, dry spot, wear for up to 8 hours, and replace once it turns white. One honest note: hydrocolloid patches work best on spots that have come to a head; they are not designed for deep, closed, or under-the-skin blemishes.
