I get on with these personally. I don’t find they blend that well and you can’t wear foundation and have this on as it will ring round it. It just doesn’t work. But they help reduce inflammation and redness
Great value for money given how many you get in the pack as opposed to other brands.
I usually use the Nip & Fab salicylic patches which do a brilliant job. I find these are better for whiteheads and the Nip and Fab do a better job on blind spots. They do look a little yellow on the face so not sure I would wear one to work but I pop one on before bed and by the morning the redness and swelling has reduced.
I had a spot brewing the very day they arrived so I placed it on overnight and come morning there was this gross white film under it that peeled off when I took the plaster off. Exactly how it does on those tiktok videos. And the spot was gone the next day. Incredible and also very incognito. Blends with the skin and sticks very well. Will definitely be buying more once I’ve used this pack.
I found these dots were some of the thinnest I’ve used, and stuck really well all round the outer edge, unlike some others. They really made a difference to the spots that popped up, bringing 99% of the gunk out of them. I’d definitely say to avoid putting moisturiser in this area before putting this on your face, but if you do forget, use a damp cloth to remove the moisturiser from the area before applying the dot. Just helps it stick even better.
Just repurchased, they work so well and keep me from picking at any pimples. They really pull out all the gunk, and they are very sheer so almost unnoticeable if you want to wear them out in public!
Wasn’t sure if these would actually work but really pleased with the outcome after using them will definitely be adding these to my skincare routine going forward
it only works if there’s a head on the spot. if it’s a spot that’s coming in. it just won’t do anything except for maybe bring it closer to the surface
These actually work! I can’t believe it!
They are discreet and stuck so well, I can wear them during the day if needed. I tend to wear them overnight, and by the morning the spot is well on its way to healing.
Perfect for getting rid of white heads but one thing to know, at least in my experience, is when you pull it off and it pulls away the gunk, it does kind of leave you with an open ‘wound’ that you need to ensure is kept clean and dry until it scabs over over night. By open wound I don’t mean that in a scary way, but it seems that how it works is it truly drains it and pulls the white head out almost like a blackhead so you are left with the open ‘pore’ as a result. It does work though. I leave mine on overnight for best results but they go on so sheet you’d easily get away with wearing them out and about during the day.
I’ve tried a couple brands including Hydro Stars but these are cheaper and so much more effective. I absolutely cannot be without them now!!
Perfect for whiteheads, but sometimes I even use them on under the skin spots – they aren’t really able to extract without a head but honestly make the spot look easier on the eye with the patch on. I’ve shamelessly worn a few on my face to work because I’m less embarrassed to have a sticker on my face than an angry red spot.
You do need a good 5/6 hours at least so I tend to wear all day or all night and the spot is gone when you take it off. Follow up with something soothing though as the skin will be exposed until it heals over!
I’m so glad I discovered these! I had a nasty, deep whitehead just under my nostril which was growing by the day and getting more and more painful. I think it may have been a pustule actually – very different to other whiteheads I’ve had in the past so I was reluctant to pop it. Saw these online and was so happy when they arrived a day early – put one on overnight and the results were dramatic! Peeled it off in the morning and it had taken care of most of it. I put another one on to help the healing process, it provides a nice protective barrier and I’m hoping it will heal a lot quicker having taken care of it this way. Fantastic!
I have these dots as a subscription because I literally can’t live without them! Such a good product if you want to get rid of spots without leaving spots on your ski
So glad I came across these as they’re brilliant! Bring painful red spots out overnight so really help to sooth. My ONLY issue with using them is if I forget I’ve got fake tan on … perfect white circle the next day where they remove the tan ha!
I can’t believe they work but they do! Amazing pop on before going to bed and no redness the next day. After 2 days all signs of spot had gone…they are Amazing ….have recommended to all my friends! They are clear little patch’s but not totally non existent.
Great for getting rid of spots! Covers up quite nicely with makeup. Would definitely recommend. Can also be used overnight if not wanting to use during day.
These are a lifesaver I put them on at night and notice visible improvement by the next morning also helpful for those spots under the skin that can be painful!
These are amazing! I had a massive inflamed spot with scabs on it due to picking it so much (I have anxiety and pick at scabs without realising). For 2 weeks I have tried various things to calm the spot down with no luck. I put these patches on and changed them after 6-8 hours and after 2 days the massive spot has completely vanished!! I literally can’t believe it! Definitely recommend, I’ll be buying again!
I was extremely skeptical about this products claims but also very desperate when I decided to give these dots for spots for a try. I had the largest pimple on my face which was bordering on the size of a boil. 5 days in and it was not reducing in size. It was impossible to cover with makeup as it kept scabbing, bleeding and refilling and was so raised and red. I was embarrassed to leave the house. I put a dot on which was so easy to apply. It just about covered the spot due to its size. I left it overnight (10 hours). The next morning I removed the dot and my spot was less than half the size and was completely flat with no head or scabs. It could easily be covered with a bit of concealer at this point. It honestly felt like a miracle! I would 100% recommend these to anyone and everyone.
Every now and then I suffer from hormonal painful spots on my chin and they would take ages to go away and scar. I started using these on them and it helps with the swelling if I wear one during the night in the morning the spot will be completely flat I will continue to use these, I have tried other brands but none are as good as dots for spots
I’m a picker. These have stopped that almost completely. I do find they work a LOT better when the spot has been opened (pin works the best to open without picking at it), but the amount of gunk they get out is amazing. Added bonus, they blur the spots while they’re on. I’ve worn these throughout the day, working in the office as well as video conferences. Much better than heavy makeup to cover and make the spot worse.
Easy to apply, stay on for long periods of time and aren’t too noticeable so I was able to wear them out and about and even to the gym. Definitely saw a reduction in my spots, especially if wearing them overnight. I woke up and they were no longer swollen or as red and painful. I’ve tried more expensive brands that didn’t work so well, so I definitely recommend these.
I’ve been an ongoing user of this product since 2021 and found that the product worked very well for simply protecting the pimple area and preventing me from touching & potentially making the pimple worse. They more or less hide pimples, but a slight hint of red can be seen etc.
But the latest product which was received seems different? The patches are thinner than previous versions, and also come on a tearable strip of 3 patches rather than one line of six. They’re still working well, but they seem like a downgrade as the main ‘section’ of the patch is much thinner and doesn’t draw up the gunk up as much as previously.
I hate hate hate hormonal acne ahh! So i’ve been using lots of different brands of pimple patches and these ones are one of my fav, already bought another pack!! They are super easy to use, give it a couple of minutes they fully stick on and I can leave them on for hours on end. They are barely noticeable so I can even go out rocking these on. I have had a painful blind pimple on my chin and the first couple of days it was beyond sore, when I got these patches a little ago, inflammation has gotten down so much and even though there’s still a little swelling as it is blind, I can now eat and chat without constantly feeling the pain of this spot, it’s made such a difference these patches. They help get the gunk, help gradually with inflammation and preventing infection! Must buy guys for sure!!
I’m mixed race so a medium to deeper skin tone. If you studied my face like a weirdo you’d notice but it’s pretty unnoticeable, this all depends on where light hits. However, I’ve worn them out the house a bunch of times and not got any looks (people don’t tend to care as much as we think anyway) and it defo does help a whitehead. Not intended for under the surface spots or ones that are brewing. Defo better on a piercing white head, gets all the gunk out and Hides what’s really going on underneath. It also stops me from picking and gets rid of the redness I do love I do I do.
In addition to getting rid of the spots, it’s slightly translucent so it’s much harder to see any spots (at least from a distance) so they’re quite good if you’ve got a horrible angry one that will just look even worse if you squeeze i
I am new to these types of products, which is surprising as I’ve been an acne sufferer for years now. Great addition to skin care treatment. I find the added pressure of wearing the product helps with redness too. And you can hardly notice them with make up either!
Very happy with dots for spots, does what it says! You can’t pick or squeeze lol as soon as you see a spot dot it! After a couple of days those spots are almost gone.
Most of the time I forgot I was wearing them, wouldn’t say sheer enough to wear out but some people might. Didn’t reduce spots as much as hoped but definitely stopped me picking or squeezing them so I think helped them heal quicker. More gunk comes out if already popped or have whitehead o
These patches are thin and adhere really well. As someone who can’t stop picking, these really did work to stop my bad habit. Definitely works best on whiteheads. I would be tempted to wear them out of the house as they are so thin and sheer.
If you struggle with loads of spots as I do, I would definitely recommend. It’s helped me a lot, I’m not hurting my skin and leaving marks, I simply put one of the patches on and within a couple of hours it’s gone and you can see all the puss on the patch
Thought I would give these ago at 50 and going through the menopause I am getting spots!! I find these help I put them on before bed and they help reduce swelling and my spots clear a lot clearer, I don’t get many spots but the ones I have I don’t need to worry about now vey good in my opinion.
These are amazing and usually work overnight. Only a couple of times I have had to use more than one but usually on bigger acne/spots. They are really lightweight so you do not even notice they are there. I move around a lot in my sleep and they have never fallen off. If you have a nightbout after work they are easily covered with some make up and it takes it all out before your evening. Would totally recommend, great value for money also.
At first I was skeptical but they do work! Love how transparent they are and you can almost not see them on the skin. But they do absorb the pimple which is awesome! Will buy again.
If you have adult acne then you should try this. I get breakouts often and I used one of these until it turned white then used another. I ran through the pack of 24 in 2 days as I had a lot of spots. They do nothing for redness which is a drawback in my opinion. If they had something in them to reduce the redness then I’d give it 5 stars. Also, some don’t sit flush against the face because of the way they peel off the plastic.
Brilliant product.
Simply place over a spot and within anything from a few hours to overnight the spot contents will have been drawn out from the spot. Simply peel off the dot and the spot has virtually disappeared.
Xxxxx
They are a good product especially if you get white heads but they dont always work so sometimes they will bring the gunk (the stuff in the spot) forward and sometimes it will get rid of the spot all together. Definitely recommend wearing them at night.
They always do the trick. if I have spot coming up I pop it on over night and by the morning it is less inflamed and hardly noticeable. Not a miracle cure but it does help. Much better than other more expensive brands like the nip and fab ones which did nothing
Don’t go buying those crappy star ones or expensive stuff from highstreet stores! Honestly these are insane! The best product – they are so sticky and don’t fall off and the results are perfect in the morning! Buy!
I got a pack of these when I had a really sore spot. It had a big head and I was trying to resist the temptation to pop it. I’ve been using them ever since.
They are not miracle workers, and I’m not convinced by the “they draw the pus it” thing, BUT:
1) I find they immediately ease discomfort a little, just like blister plasters do; I think because they make/keep the skin moister and softer, so there is less swelling and tension
2) they definitely soften the skin and whatever is in or coming out of the skin
3) they help you not to pick at the spot, which I think might even be their most helpful asset, both in terms of the spot being less irritated and just in terms of a protective layer between the spot and your restless fingers
Also they work pretty well if you have popped the spot or if it bursts on its own.
Generally they seem to promote healing and help avoid scars. I don’t think they’re miracle workers, and for me at least they’re definitely not an overnight fix. That said, if you have minor spot problems and you just need to not pick at them while they heal, or if they’re painful, then these might well be worth looking at.
I’ve gone through so many of these now. I can genuinely say they help and have sped up the healing process for of my spots. Even if sometime they just stop me trying to pick.
Tried this after several reviews and found they work very well at reducing inflammation and helping spots heal. Also invaluable as stops you picking or irritating any spots. Best put on before bed to give a good 8 hours.
I will be buying again. If I have a breakout emerging I put these over the spots going to bed and it draws out the gunk (sorry!), it takes away redness also which is sometimes as bad as the spot itself!
bought these many times now, they work great but it seems to depend on your skin type, my sister with combination skin found these didnt do much, but i have dry/very dry and theyre amazing. One ones i will use. I’d reccommend getting the smaller pack to try them out first.
These do really well to cover up and help speed up the ‘got a spot’ phase. They draw out all the grossness pretty fast (relatively). The first time I used it I couldn’t see it on my face and a photo sent to a friend also fooled them. That said, it depends on the angle you’re being looked at from (and I guess any light shining on you), because otherwise it’s pretty noticeable that you have this random circle on your face. Also I found on the odd attempt I used one at the same time as using makeup that said makeup really highlighted the patch too. Overall though I like the product and would recommend!
They are invisible whilst they are on your face. But after a while it ends up looking like one of those poppable spots.
I think what I love most about these dots though is that I don’t touch my spots anymore while I wear them.
They don’t hurt or itch while I’m wearing the dot ons.
I dont really know if its good to have these on for too long, as they keep your spot “wet” etc.
Great for those who just won’t stop picking & ends up damaging the skin when rooting to extract spots.
Hardly visible and stick well, literally until you take them off, even through a shower.
For a male so no idea about covering them in make up.
Tried cheaper brands but they are a thicker, less flexible plastic so more noticeable & fall off.
With really bad pustules they help bring it to the skin for safe extraction in 2-3 days. Huge fan.
I never write reviews but I had to for this. I am in no way condoning picking at your skin, however the way I use these is I squeeze the spot and get as much of the pus out as I can with some cotton pads. I then place one of these dots over the area, go to sleep and the area is flat and the redness has gone down. They are amazing.
For example yesterday I had a huge sore volcano looking thing on my chin, used a patch as above last night, this morning (I have plans with the girls) I can easily put concealer over it as it has flattened – undetectable!! I’m ordering more.
Good for spots which are literally just starting out under the skin. If skin is broke don’t use them but otherwise in early stages of a spot they are excelle
Very quick delivery, easy to use, great job done when used overnight. Although did burn a bit initially, mainly because my spot was on the corner of my lips, so sensitive skin. Would definitely use again. Ended giving some to my sister too & worked like a dream for her too.
I bought these for my 14YO son who is in that horrible spotty stage bless him. Biggest bonus is that he puts these on and it stops him squeezing or picking. He puts them on at night time, peels them off in the morning with the gunk collected underneath. A massive improvement in his skin so I’d defo recommend for teenagers. I’d try them myself if he’d share
After reading the reviews i thought id give these a go! So glad i did.
I’ve had a really sore, red spot on my chin all week. I put one of these on last night, I’ve woken up this morning and its almost gone. Would highly recommend
I got horrible hormonal spots that have multiple heads round my mouth and chin. These things are literally a life saver and help clear them- I used to try and get all the junk out by popping them and then I’d get scarring. Can’t rate these enough. I do feel like the spot has to have broken the skin already though before they can draw the junk out, which is the only down side I’ve found so far.
Not sure if I can live without them now so cheap!
I checked out a review and found out how to apply them..really, tear down the perforated line and remove patch! Seems simply now! I wear them at night and have forgotten to remove the odd one, on occasion! Fabulous product!
These are my new best friends for when I get whiteheads on my face, it really is as slick as just peeling them off the sheet, finding the little buggers and placing the sticker directly on top. I’ve found it deeply satisfying watching the sticker turn white with all the gunk it sucks out of them over the day, only downside is sometimes peeling them off is a little finicky.
I can’t believe how much these have helped. I have had bad acne since my teens. Even having gone through the harsh treatment of Ro-Accutane twice by my Dermatologist I still get 25% of breakouts as a 56 year old adult. I sometimes get hard lumps and the poison is too deep rooted to get at it. If I leave them alone they take weeks to settle and then come back. I had 2 bad ones recently and made a right mess not leaving them alone. I had 2 large sores due to that and they were so bad I didn’t want to go out. Used a dot on them for 2 days and what a difference. I had 2 spots yesterday and put a dot on them and left it overnight. Was amazed this morning if I didn’t know they were there I couldn’t see them. Gutted I never got these years ago!!!!!!
These are definitely my favourite brand for dots that I’ve tried, they’re like magic. My skincare routine is so on point now that I rarely get breakouts, only monthly hormonal ones if that, I just put one of these on any spot and it clears it up so quickly! These dots are ingenious, love them. I’ve never worn my makeup over them so can’t attest to that, I have worn them out bare faced when I’ve popped to the shops and they’re barely noticeable, no strange looks or anything.
I’ve used this now a few times and pleasantly surprised with the results. They are basically small clear-ish plasters. I found that they stuck well and didn’t stand out. I actually went out with one on my nose and I think I got away with it 🙂 From the times I used it they did seem to calm a red spot down over the course of the day faster than i would have expected using typical remedies so I would recommended.
I have ordered these so many times now and they’re now on my subscribe and save!
I was skeptical before I tried them but they are seriously worth giving a go.
I get hormonal acne and break outs particularly on my chin. I will tend to put these on before bed and leave overnight. They do a good job of helping the spot to heal / dry out. You can see the results as the colour changes to become more opaque as they work. They also help as they stop me from absent-mindedly playing with my spots which of course only makes them worse!
To manage expectations- they aren’t totally invisible. I would never leave the house wearing them as it would be pretty obvious (especially as they work and the colour of them changes to be more white than see-though). You wouldn’t be able to cover them with makeup either to hide them.
That said, they certainly help and I wouldn’t be without them now.
I was a bit sceptical about how well these dots would work, but they have really helped me stop squeezing and picking spots, which means less scarring on my face. Whenever I peel a dot off from having it on overnight, there is always a satisfying little white dot of puss and the bump is reduced, so you can see them working. I’m really happy with them and I’ve bought a bigger pack
Purchased on a whim as they are always advertised.
After the purchase, i was invited to an important interview so obviously grew Mount Everest in the middle of my cheek!! Thanks hormones!
Decided to give the Dots for Spots a try the night before just to see.
The next morning – bye bye spot, bye bye redness, hello clear skin!
Honestly could not believe how well these work.
Definitely a staple product in the skincare box and will be using to rid any of little imperfections we all hate!
I occasionally suffer from hormonal outbreaks due to a health issue so knowing that I no longer need to spend hours with concealer and make to cover is a huge relief.
I liked it, it was pretty lightweight and didn’t irritate my skin like some other patches do. In fact is was so lightweight, that i forgot I put them on and when I was washing my face in the morning, I thought I had tags of my skin peeling off .
I not sure what it actually does to solve the issue of the acne itself but it only works if the pus of your acne is visible to the surface. I put a patch on one that hadn’t quite peeked the surface yet and it did nothing.
Over all, I would recommend. Its a real life saver when you notice that your skin had broken out the day before a big eve
I recommend these to everyone! These are excellent for providing healthy cover of spots whilst also dealing with the spot itself. I literally pop these on overnight as soon as I feel one coming and by the morning any redness or swelling is massively reduced, if not gone altogether to go under my normal makeup.
These can be worn through the day well, they are very discreet looking but not entirely invisible. I wouldn’t recommend covering them with make-up, whilst they do take make-up over the top it does make them more noticeable in my opinion.
If you suffer with acne, these are worth the money. I’ve recommended them to make up artists who have subsequently kept them in kits or advised bridal parties to use them when breakouts happens a few days before the big day. I wouldn’t be without them
I dont get acne, but I just hate getting spots and they make me feel so awkward and insecure. Having these is really great because the cover up the pimple, and having the physical barrier there is really helpful to stop me messing with them and continuing to touch them which obiously makes it worse. I have foudnt hat on deeper spots it takes a bit longer for these to work, they end up drawing the spot to the surface and then I’ll change the dot and use a fresh one, and then it removes the spot completely, almost like magic.
These are so effective that my boyfriend got curious and now also uses these as well, which is great because he is also very self conscious about his skin and these have really been an eye opener for him in terms of having good skin care and realising that he can actually do somethign about spots and not just leave them forever
I will probably keep buying these and use them for my skin whenever I need to, they are very effective and quite subtle
I’ve used other spot stickers before and they didn’t do the job for me. These spot stickers were a little bit more expensive than the others but I’m so glad I purchased them. They definitely work as I can see the difference after leaving the sticker on for a few hours. After using these, my spots heal really nicely as all the gunk has been drawn out. However for bigger spots I’ve had to use 3 spot stickers in a row which is understandable as there is more gunk to remove. They’re really clear stickers so they’re not so noticeable when you put it on your face and if you put some makeup over them then you won’t notice them at all. Honestly this is the best spot sticker out there and I would highly recommend them as they’re worth the purchase!
I buy these on a regular basis every couple of months, these work wonders for my skin! When I need a blemish or spot to heal quickly I put one of the dots on overnight and it goes down in the morning.
It makes a protective barrier over the area so that 1) it creates a moist enviroment for your spot to heal and 2) it stops bacteria from entering, particularly if you’re like me and tend to pick at the spot
Granted, it won’t work for every type of spot. Whiteheads are the best to put a dot on overnight as it gives it the time it needs to make use of the dot properly. If a spot is smaller I tear one in half so that I can use one dot for two spots! Sometimes I put one on a blemish too and it helps with inflamation.
So as long as you cleanse, tone and moisturise you skin beforehand these dots will aid your skin to heal!
These came earlier today and honestly I really like them. At first I found it difficult to get them off the strip and had folded edges but then I realised there are cuts in the plastic specifically to help you get the dots off without them folding over. They definitely reduced the redness in the areas of my pimples and depending on the location, they can be hidden. The one on my face is noticeable only it up close but from further away my partner really couldn’t tell. I also have one by my nose and you wouldn’t know it was there unless I said. I wore both for 5 hours and have just applied new ones now for tonight. They definitely sucked out the gunk from the spots already. I really think/hope tomorrow my pimples will be less noticeable but even if it takes a few days I’m really impressed with this product. Also helps if you’re somebody who likes to keep touching their spots (guilty) Glad I listened to reviews. Thanks!
So far… I love it! (only on day one but high hopes)
I discovered these during lockdown. Due to wearing masks I got a few spots around my chin and cheek area. These definitely saved the day. They are pretty much invisible when they’re stuck on your face. You could easily go outside during the day wearing these and no one would notice you wearing them (unless they got right up into your face) which I have been guilty of doing, I’ll admit lol. I would usually put them on before going to bed, after I’ve washed my face. By the morning they’re full of pus and sebum from the affected area. Pulling them off is so satisfying too. The spot is pretty much all gone by the morning. Raised spots become just flat reddish marks. I am still to this day blown away by how well these work. I will never be without them now!
These spot patches work amazing on acne prone skin. You are visually able to see, after a few hours, that the extraction definitely works. It’s a must have essential piece in my sleepover bag. Would highly recommend and purchase again!
These really work! And I’ve tried a few! Best ones so far and cheap!
This reduces the erythema and swelling of my spots and I would 100% recommend!! (Leave overnight and see the results in the morning)
I get on with these personally. I don’t find they blend that well and you can’t wear foundation and have this on as it will ring round it. It just doesn’t work. But they help reduce inflammation and redness
If you need a spot sorted for the next day these are it. Will flatten it. I leave mine on for days, just replacing when it’s gone white n
I always have these I’m my drawer. Other brands not good.
I usually use the Nip & Fab salicylic patches which do a brilliant job. I find these are better for whiteheads and the Nip and Fab do a better job on blind spots. They do look a little yellow on the face so not sure I would wear one to work but I pop one on before bed and by the morning the redness and swelling has reduced.
Great product for spots. Next day the impurities are gone. Excellent, would recommend.
I found these dots were some of the thinnest I’ve used, and stuck really well all round the outer edge, unlike some others. They really made a difference to the spots that popped up, bringing 99% of the gunk out of them. I’d definitely say to avoid putting moisturiser in this area before putting this on your face, but if you do forget, use a damp cloth to remove the moisturiser from the area before applying the dot. Just helps it stick even better.
Will definitely be buying this brand again.
Just repurchased, they work so well and keep me from picking at any pimples. They really pull out all the gunk, and they are very sheer so almost unnoticeable if you want to wear them out in public!
Works better on pimples that are about to come to a head, prevents me from touching my face all the time and definitely heals redness faste
Wasn’t sure if these would actually work but really pleased with the outcome after using them will definitely be adding these to my skincare routine going forward
definitely gets rid of spots
it only works if there’s a head on the spot. if it’s a spot that’s coming in. it just won’t do anything except for maybe bring it closer to the surface
These actually work! I can’t believe it!
They are discreet and stuck so well, I can wear them during the day if needed. I tend to wear them overnight, and by the morning the spot is well on its way to healing.
Great dot spots. Really helps to relieve spots. Great coverage
These do actually work. They bring the spot to the surface faste
Perfect for whiteheads, but sometimes I even use them on under the skin spots – they aren’t really able to extract without a head but honestly make the spot look easier on the eye with the patch on. I’ve shamelessly worn a few on my face to work because I’m less embarrassed to have a sticker on my face than an angry red spot.
You do need a good 5/6 hours at least so I tend to wear all day or all night and the spot is gone when you take it off. Follow up with something soothing though as the skin will be exposed until it heals over!
Really good product I always use it if I have a larger/painful spot and it clears it up so quickly
Liquid make up can get caught around the edges I’ve tried loads of brands but always go back to this one. They really work.
I have these dots as a subscription because I literally can’t live without them! Such a good product if you want to get rid of spots without leaving spots on your ski
I’ve been using these for a couple if weeks now and while they don’t get rid of the spots they help reduce them abit which does help
I am impressed with how sheer it is, it blended well with my skin unlike my previous acne patches
So glad I came across these as they’re brilliant! Bring painful red spots out overnight so really help to sooth. My ONLY issue with using them is if I forget I’ve got fake tan on … perfect white circle the next day where they remove the tan ha!
a little pricy but not as bad as other brands. works as well as expected
Reordered more. I like these, as they work well at calming down achne.
These are great. I use them over night and they really help to dry out the spot and speed up healing.
Not harsh on my skin either.
These are just INCREDIBLE. They really work to flatten spots so quickly and means I don’t end up with nearly as much scarring. 10/10 recommend
The patches are one-sized and too thick, which makes it a bit visible on skin. But it absorbs pus effectively.
I can’t believe they work but they do! Amazing pop on before going to bed and no redness the next day. After 2 days all signs of spot had gone…they are Amazing ….have recommended to all my friends! They are clear little patch’s but not totally non existent.
I swear by these – they work every time and I would highly recommend – I had a huge breakout in the summer and these helped massively
These are brilliant they get rid of my pimples overnight ! I will 1000 % repurchase and I highly recommend them.
Great for getting rid of spots! Covers up quite nicely with makeup. Would definitely recommend. Can also be used overnight if not wanting to use during day.
They fairly easy to use and you can hardly see them once they are on. Brilliant results, spot gone by the morning.
These are a lifesaver I put them on at night and notice visible improvement by the next morning also helpful for those spots under the skin that can be painful!
I couldn’t live without these pimple patches!!! They’re so good and actually worth. Totally worth the money. I have purchased them multiple times.
These are amazing! I had a massive inflamed spot with scabs on it due to picking it so much (I have anxiety and pick at scabs without realising). For 2 weeks I have tried various things to calm the spot down with no luck. I put these patches on and changed them after 6-8 hours and after 2 days the massive spot has completely vanished!! I literally can’t believe it! Definitely recommend, I’ll be buying again!
Every now and then I suffer from hormonal painful spots on my chin and they would take ages to go away and scar. I started using these on them and it helps with the swelling if I wear one during the night in the morning the spot will be completely flat I will continue to use these, I have tried other brands but none are as good as dots for spots
I’m a picker. These have stopped that almost completely. I do find they work a LOT better when the spot has been opened (pin works the best to open without picking at it), but the amount of gunk they get out is amazing. Added bonus, they blur the spots while they’re on. I’ve worn these throughout the day, working in the office as well as video conferences. Much better than heavy makeup to cover and make the spot worse.
Easy to apply, stay on for long periods of time and aren’t too noticeable so I was able to wear them out and about and even to the gym. Definitely saw a reduction in my spots, especially if wearing them overnight. I woke up and they were no longer swollen or as red and painful. I’ve tried more expensive brands that didn’t work so well, so I definitely recommend these.
Not very visible when worn and very effective in treating spots.
I’ve been an ongoing user of this product since 2021 and found that the product worked very well for simply protecting the pimple area and preventing me from touching & potentially making the pimple worse. They more or less hide pimples, but a slight hint of red can be seen etc.
But the latest product which was received seems different? The patches are thinner than previous versions, and also come on a tearable strip of 3 patches rather than one line of six. They’re still working well, but they seem like a downgrade as the main ‘section’ of the patch is much thinner and doesn’t draw up the gunk up as much as previously.
I hate hate hate hormonal acne ahh! So i’ve been using lots of different brands of pimple patches and these ones are one of my fav, already bought another pack!! They are super easy to use, give it a couple of minutes they fully stick on and I can leave them on for hours on end. They are barely noticeable so I can even go out rocking these on. I have had a painful blind pimple on my chin and the first couple of days it was beyond sore, when I got these patches a little ago, inflammation has gotten down so much and even though there’s still a little swelling as it is blind, I can now eat and chat without constantly feeling the pain of this spot, it’s made such a difference these patches. They help get the gunk, help gradually with inflammation and preventing infection! Must buy guys for sure!!
I’m mixed race so a medium to deeper skin tone. If you studied my face like a weirdo you’d notice but it’s pretty unnoticeable, this all depends on where light hits. However, I’ve worn them out the house a bunch of times and not got any looks (people don’t tend to care as much as we think anyway) and it defo does help a whitehead. Not intended for under the surface spots or ones that are brewing. Defo better on a piercing white head, gets all the gunk out and Hides what’s really going on underneath. It also stops me from picking and gets rid of the redness I do love I do I do.
Easy to use, but mainly used them over night or when in house
In addition to getting rid of the spots, it’s slightly translucent so it’s much harder to see any spots (at least from a distance) so they’re quite good if you’ve got a horrible angry one that will just look even worse if you squeeze i
I am new to these types of products, which is surprising as I’ve been an acne sufferer for years now. Great addition to skin care treatment. I find the added pressure of wearing the product helps with redness too. And you can hardly notice them with make up either!
Very happy with dots for spots, does what it says! You can’t pick or squeeze lol as soon as you see a spot dot it! After a couple of days those spots are almost gone.
Most of the time I forgot I was wearing them, wouldn’t say sheer enough to wear out but some people might. Didn’t reduce spots as much as hoped but definitely stopped me picking or squeezing them so I think helped them heal quicker. More gunk comes out if already popped or have whitehead o
These patches are thin and adhere really well. As someone who can’t stop picking, these really did work to stop my bad habit. Definitely works best on whiteheads. I would be tempted to wear them out of the house as they are so thin and sheer.
If you struggle with loads of spots as I do, I would definitely recommend. It’s helped me a lot, I’m not hurting my skin and leaving marks, I simply put one of the patches on and within a couple of hours it’s gone and you can see all the puss on the patch
Thought I would give these ago at 50 and going through the menopause I am getting spots!! I find these help I put them on before bed and they help reduce swelling and my spots clear a lot clearer, I don’t get many spots but the ones I have I don’t need to worry about now vey good in my opinion.
These are amazing and usually work overnight. Only a couple of times I have had to use more than one but usually on bigger acne/spots. They are really lightweight so you do not even notice they are there. I move around a lot in my sleep and they have never fallen off. If you have a nightbout after work they are easily covered with some make up and it takes it all out before your evening. Would totally recommend, great value for money also.
Works well, just wish there were more in each pack considering the price
At first I was skeptical but they do work! Love how transparent they are and you can almost not see them on the skin. But they do absorb the pimple which is awesome! Will buy again.
If you have adult acne then you should try this. I get breakouts often and I used one of these until it turned white then used another. I ran through the pack of 24 in 2 days as I had a lot of spots. They do nothing for redness which is a drawback in my opinion. If they had something in them to reduce the redness then I’d give it 5 stars. Also, some don’t sit flush against the face because of the way they peel off the plastic.
Brilliant product.
Simply place over a spot and within anything from a few hours to overnight the spot contents will have been drawn out from the spot. Simply peel off the dot and the spot has virtually disappeared.
Xxxxx
They are a good product especially if you get white heads but they dont always work so sometimes they will bring the gunk (the stuff in the spot) forward and sometimes it will get rid of the spot all together. Definitely recommend wearing them at night.
They always do the trick. if I have spot coming up I pop it on over night and by the morning it is less inflamed and hardly noticeable. Not a miracle cure but it does help. Much better than other more expensive brands like the nip and fab ones which did nothing
Don’t go buying those crappy star ones or expensive stuff from highstreet stores! Honestly these are insane! The best product – they are so sticky and don’t fall off and the results are perfect in the morning! Buy!
I got a pack of these when I had a really sore spot. It had a big head and I was trying to resist the temptation to pop it. I’ve been using them ever since.
They are not miracle workers, and I’m not convinced by the “they draw the pus it” thing, BUT:
1) I find they immediately ease discomfort a little, just like blister plasters do; I think because they make/keep the skin moister and softer, so there is less swelling and tension
2) they definitely soften the skin and whatever is in or coming out of the skin
3) they help you not to pick at the spot, which I think might even be their most helpful asset, both in terms of the spot being less irritated and just in terms of a protective layer between the spot and your restless fingers
Also they work pretty well if you have popped the spot or if it bursts on its own.
Generally they seem to promote healing and help avoid scars. I don’t think they’re miracle workers, and for me at least they’re definitely not an overnight fix. That said, if you have minor spot problems and you just need to not pick at them while they heal, or if they’re painful, then these might well be worth looking at.
I’ve gone through so many of these now. I can genuinely say they help and have sped up the healing process for of my spots. Even if sometime they just stop me trying to pick.
Tried this after several reviews and found they work very well at reducing inflammation and helping spots heal. Also invaluable as stops you picking or irritating any spots. Best put on before bed to give a good 8 hours.
I will be buying again. If I have a breakout emerging I put these over the spots going to bed and it draws out the gunk (sorry!), it takes away redness also which is sometimes as bad as the spot itself!
bought these many times now, they work great but it seems to depend on your skin type, my sister with combination skin found these didnt do much, but i have dry/very dry and theyre amazing. One ones i will use. I’d reccommend getting the smaller pack to try them out first.
These do really well to cover up and help speed up the ‘got a spot’ phase. They draw out all the grossness pretty fast (relatively). The first time I used it I couldn’t see it on my face and a photo sent to a friend also fooled them. That said, it depends on the angle you’re being looked at from (and I guess any light shining on you), because otherwise it’s pretty noticeable that you have this random circle on your face. Also I found on the odd attempt I used one at the same time as using makeup that said makeup really highlighted the patch too. Overall though I like the product and would recommend!
Seems to work, but don’t leave on too long, cleared spot but left a scab. Will use what I ordered but probably won’t buy again.
They are invisible whilst they are on your face. But after a while it ends up looking like one of those poppable spots.
I think what I love most about these dots though is that I don’t touch my spots anymore while I wear them.
They don’t hurt or itch while I’m wearing the dot ons.
I dont really know if its good to have these on for too long, as they keep your spot “wet” etc.
Great for those who just won’t stop picking & ends up damaging the skin when rooting to extract spots.
Hardly visible and stick well, literally until you take them off, even through a shower.
For a male so no idea about covering them in make up.
Tried cheaper brands but they are a thicker, less flexible plastic so more noticeable & fall off.
With really bad pustules they help bring it to the skin for safe extraction in 2-3 days. Huge fan.
For example yesterday I had a huge sore volcano looking thing on my chin, used a patch as above last night, this morning (I have plans with the girls) I can easily put concealer over it as it has flattened – undetectable!! I’m ordering more.
I liked these & they did help spots go down. Only thing I would say it for the amount you get they are pricey
They do draw out any nastiness from a spot; always best to leave them overnight, I don’t reckon they’d do much if you only left them an hour or two.
They’ve really improved some horrible spots I’ve had, they bring swelling right down and can transform an area overnight.
They don’t have 100% success rate for me, but they work well and often enough for me to still love them.
Big fan of this brand and product- they are a cult beauty product for me now.
The only thing I would say is don’t try wearing them under make up, it simply doesn’t work!
Good for spots which are literally just starting out under the skin. If skin is broke don’t use them but otherwise in early stages of a spot they are excelle
Very quick delivery, easy to use, great job done when used overnight. Although did burn a bit initially, mainly because my spot was on the corner of my lips, so sensitive skin. Would definitely use again. Ended giving some to my sister too & worked like a dream for her too.
I bought these for my 14YO son who is in that horrible spotty stage bless him. Biggest bonus is that he puts these on and it stops him squeezing or picking. He puts them on at night time, peels them off in the morning with the gunk collected underneath. A massive improvement in his skin so I’d defo recommend for teenagers. I’d try them myself if he’d share
After reading the reviews i thought id give these a go! So glad i did.
I’ve had a really sore, red spot on my chin all week. I put one of these on last night, I’ve woken up this morning and its almost gone. Would highly recommend
I got horrible hormonal spots that have multiple heads round my mouth and chin. These things are literally a life saver and help clear them- I used to try and get all the junk out by popping them and then I’d get scarring. Can’t rate these enough. I do feel like the spot has to have broken the skin already though before they can draw the junk out, which is the only down side I’ve found so far.
Not sure if I can live without them now so cheap!
I checked out a review and found out how to apply them..really, tear down the perforated line and remove patch! Seems simply now! I wear them at night and have forgotten to remove the odd one, on occasion! Fabulous product!
These are my new best friends for when I get whiteheads on my face, it really is as slick as just peeling them off the sheet, finding the little buggers and placing the sticker directly on top. I’ve found it deeply satisfying watching the sticker turn white with all the gunk it sucks out of them over the day, only downside is sometimes peeling them off is a little finicky.
These are definitely my favourite brand for dots that I’ve tried, they’re like magic. My skincare routine is so on point now that I rarely get breakouts, only monthly hormonal ones if that, I just put one of these on any spot and it clears it up so quickly! These dots are ingenious, love them. I’ve never worn my makeup over them so can’t attest to that, I have worn them out bare faced when I’ve popped to the shops and they’re barely noticeable, no strange looks or anything.
I’ve used this now a few times and pleasantly surprised with the results. They are basically small clear-ish plasters. I found that they stuck well and didn’t stand out. I actually went out with one on my nose and I think I got away with it 🙂 From the times I used it they did seem to calm a red spot down over the course of the day faster than i would have expected using typical remedies so I would recommended.
I have ordered these so many times now and they’re now on my subscribe and save!
I was skeptical before I tried them but they are seriously worth giving a go.
I get hormonal acne and break outs particularly on my chin. I will tend to put these on before bed and leave overnight. They do a good job of helping the spot to heal / dry out. You can see the results as the colour changes to become more opaque as they work. They also help as they stop me from absent-mindedly playing with my spots which of course only makes them worse!
To manage expectations- they aren’t totally invisible. I would never leave the house wearing them as it would be pretty obvious (especially as they work and the colour of them changes to be more white than see-though). You wouldn’t be able to cover them with makeup either to hide them.
That said, they certainly help and I wouldn’t be without them now.
I was a bit sceptical about how well these dots would work, but they have really helped me stop squeezing and picking spots, which means less scarring on my face. Whenever I peel a dot off from having it on overnight, there is always a satisfying little white dot of puss and the bump is reduced, so you can see them working. I’m really happy with them and I’ve bought a bigger pack
Purchased on a whim as they are always advertised.
After the purchase, i was invited to an important interview so obviously grew Mount Everest in the middle of my cheek!! Thanks hormones!
Decided to give the Dots for Spots a try the night before just to see.
The next morning – bye bye spot, bye bye redness, hello clear skin!
Honestly could not believe how well these work.
Definitely a staple product in the skincare box and will be using to rid any of little imperfections we all hate!
I occasionally suffer from hormonal outbreaks due to a health issue so knowing that I no longer need to spend hours with concealer and make to cover is a huge relief.
I liked it, it was pretty lightweight and didn’t irritate my skin like some other patches do. In fact is was so lightweight, that i forgot I put them on and when I was washing my face in the morning, I thought I had tags of my skin peeling off .
I not sure what it actually does to solve the issue of the acne itself but it only works if the pus of your acne is visible to the surface. I put a patch on one that hadn’t quite peeked the surface yet and it did nothing.
Over all, I would recommend. Its a real life saver when you notice that your skin had broken out the day before a big eve
I recommend these to everyone! These are excellent for providing healthy cover of spots whilst also dealing with the spot itself. I literally pop these on overnight as soon as I feel one coming and by the morning any redness or swelling is massively reduced, if not gone altogether to go under my normal makeup.
These can be worn through the day well, they are very discreet looking but not entirely invisible. I wouldn’t recommend covering them with make-up, whilst they do take make-up over the top it does make them more noticeable in my opinion.
If you suffer with acne, these are worth the money. I’ve recommended them to make up artists who have subsequently kept them in kits or advised bridal parties to use them when breakouts happens a few days before the big day. I wouldn’t be without them
I dont get acne, but I just hate getting spots and they make me feel so awkward and insecure. Having these is really great because the cover up the pimple, and having the physical barrier there is really helpful to stop me messing with them and continuing to touch them which obiously makes it worse. I have foudnt hat on deeper spots it takes a bit longer for these to work, they end up drawing the spot to the surface and then I’ll change the dot and use a fresh one, and then it removes the spot completely, almost like magic.
These are so effective that my boyfriend got curious and now also uses these as well, which is great because he is also very self conscious about his skin and these have really been an eye opener for him in terms of having good skin care and realising that he can actually do somethign about spots and not just leave them forever
I will probably keep buying these and use them for my skin whenever I need to, they are very effective and quite subtle
I’ve used other spot stickers before and they didn’t do the job for me. These spot stickers were a little bit more expensive than the others but I’m so glad I purchased them. They definitely work as I can see the difference after leaving the sticker on for a few hours. After using these, my spots heal really nicely as all the gunk has been drawn out. However for bigger spots I’ve had to use 3 spot stickers in a row which is understandable as there is more gunk to remove. They’re really clear stickers so they’re not so noticeable when you put it on your face and if you put some makeup over them then you won’t notice them at all. Honestly this is the best spot sticker out there and I would highly recommend them as they’re worth the purchase!
It makes a protective barrier over the area so that 1) it creates a moist enviroment for your spot to heal and 2) it stops bacteria from entering, particularly if you’re like me and tend to pick at the spot
Granted, it won’t work for every type of spot. Whiteheads are the best to put a dot on overnight as it gives it the time it needs to make use of the dot properly. If a spot is smaller I tear one in half so that I can use one dot for two spots! Sometimes I put one on a blemish too and it helps with inflamation.
So as long as you cleanse, tone and moisturise you skin beforehand these dots will aid your skin to heal!
These came earlier today and honestly I really like them. At first I found it difficult to get them off the strip and had folded edges but then I realised there are cuts in the plastic specifically to help you get the dots off without them folding over. They definitely reduced the redness in the areas of my pimples and depending on the location, they can be hidden. The one on my face is noticeable only it up close but from further away my partner really couldn’t tell. I also have one by my nose and you wouldn’t know it was there unless I said. I wore both for 5 hours and have just applied new ones now for tonight. They definitely sucked out the gunk from the spots already. I really think/hope tomorrow my pimples will be less noticeable but even if it takes a few days I’m really impressed with this product. Also helps if you’re somebody who likes to keep touching their spots (guilty) Glad I listened to reviews. Thanks!
I discovered these during lockdown. Due to wearing masks I got a few spots around my chin and cheek area. These definitely saved the day. They are pretty much invisible when they’re stuck on your face. You could easily go outside during the day wearing these and no one would notice you wearing them (unless they got right up into your face) which I have been guilty of doing, I’ll admit lol. I would usually put them on before going to bed, after I’ve washed my face. By the morning they’re full of pus and sebum from the affected area. Pulling them off is so satisfying too. The spot is pretty much all gone by the morning. Raised spots become just flat reddish marks. I am still to this day blown away by how well these work. I will never be without them now!
These spot patches work amazing on acne prone skin. You are visually able to see, after a few hours, that the extraction definitely works. It’s a must have essential piece in my sleepover bag. Would highly recommend and purchase again!
