Reviews: Nexcare 3M Acne Patch



I love pressing pimples! I bet any girls would do, don't you? When the yellowish pus or hardened pimples oozing out of the skin surface, that makes me excited! The immense satisfaction is eventually dampened by scars that are very difficult or almost impossible to get rid off.

A few years back, at the moment I saw the advertisement in a taiwan version of Cawaii magazine, i was like " cheh... too good to be true",who knows after 2 years, all over sudden i found it at Watson! At first i'm taking the small pack with 7pcs and I got the 36pcs the every week after =_=|||
Oh gosh! These babies really work!


The acne patches are small round gelatin thingies,According to the info I got from website, these patches which are actually the mini version of a medical dressing with 3M Tegasorb which is used in hospitals to absorb wound's pus. The idea came about when some Taiwan nurses cut the dressing into smaller pieces and place on their acne. They are really brilliant!

How To Use?
First of all, you have to clean your face, and don't apply any moisturiser or treatment products first. Coz it can't stick on a oily surface. To use the patch, peel it off from the plastic film and apply the sticky side directly on your zit by surrounded your zit in center. If the patch is too big for your zit, you may cut the patch into half even quater ?

Although you may use this in the day, but I prefer using this at night. Despite the fact that the packaging says you can apply makeup over the patch, but please don’t do that, because it looks freaking ugly and I tried it before. swt! a big regret because my skin get really oily after 3 hours and the patch moves! =_=|||


So, in the next morning, you can see some "yellowish white thingy" inside the patch- that's your acne pus!yikes. Then you may peel off the patch.Your zit should be gone depending on the size and condition. If you can still see some pus remaining on the zit, stick on another patch so that it can suck out the rest of the icky stuff.Yea yea, according to the photo above i got 3 pimples,1small, 1medium and 1huge! x..x by the way, the patch also creates a barrier between the zit and itchy fingers so there’s no direct contact to cause bacteria infections. Awesome for people who love to touch their zits -- ME!

With these lovely babies, I gonna say goodbye to scars~GoodBye Scars~ I will not miss you!
