Made In

●        South Korea

●        The bevelled edge means the patch tapers into the skin rather than sitting on top of it

●        Hydrocolloid absorbs fluid and forms a barrier at the same time

●        Tea tree and Centella compounds sit in the adhesive rather than being applied separately

●        At 0.1mm the patch is thin enough to disappear under a base layer

●        Two sizes cover most spots without excess

●        Removal is straightforward if you peel from the edge horizontally

1.     Cleanse the area and dry it thoroughly.

2.     Choose the patch size that covers the spot with a small margin.

3.     Apply the patch and press down firmly for about a second.

4.     Leave it on for 6 to 8 hours.

5.     Do not wear a single patch for more than 24 hours.

6.     To remove, peel gently from the edge in a horizontal direction.

7.     Apply a fresh patch if needed.

8.     Reseal the pouch after each use.

Care Plus is the in house skincare line from Olive Young, Korea's largest health and beauty retailer. The range concentrates on blemish care, with spot patches, cleansers and toners built around tea tree and Centella Asiatica. Because it is a retailer brand rather than a standalone label, the pricing tends to sit below comparable products, which is a large part of why olive young care plus scar cover spot patch and its calming sibling travel so well outside Korea.
