ZitSticka Hyperfade Microdart Pimple Patch, Targets Post-Zit Blemishes, Hydrates & Evens Skin Tone, With Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin C for Clear, Smooth-Looking Skin (4 count)

As someone who has tried quite a few different brands of pimple patches (ZitSticka, Mighty Patch, COSRX, Daolyo, BIORICA, Avarelle, GRAMRIGHT, etc.), I can say with complete confidence that their body patches work the best. I'll rank all the brands I have tried from best to worst just in case anyone wants to try others. So far, I would rank them like so: #1: ZitSticka Goo Getter Hydrocolloid Patches for Body Zits (~$18 for 9 square patches) #1.2: ZitSticka Goo Getter Pimple Patches (~$16 for 36 patches) (UPDATE 1/2026): I believe they've changed the formula for their pimple patches. The last time I purchased them, the packaging was hot pink instead of the original white and pastel pink. I did NOT like the hot pink ones. Bummer. I recommend you purchase their BODY PATCHES. This brand also sells large, square patches for your body. Those still come in the original white and pastel pink packaging, and I actually think they work even better than the smaller round ones, so I just cut those into smaller squares and use them on my face. I've stopped using the ones in the hot pink packaging altogether. They contain Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid like most other pimple patches, but they ALSO contain Vitamin C and Niacinamide, which are great for hyperpigmentation. (OLD REVIEW): These are by far the best, but unfortunately also the most expensive, so I would use them sparingly. And for the love of god, CUT THEM into smaller pieces. It'll save you a lot of money. Do not place an entire patch on a pimple unless that pimple is huge. You only really need to cover your pore, and pores are tiny. These are pretty thick as well, and the adhesive is quite strong, so they'll still stick no matter how small they are. Also, I'd only really use these on those angry, painful pimples you fear might leave a scar. These patches have prevented a lot of scars for me, so I wouldn't waste them on whiteheads or smaller pimples. UPDATE (1/2026): New #2: ROSELYNBOUTIQUE Pimple Patches Effective Blemish Control (~$13 for 300 patches) I was quite impressed by these, to be honest. I didn't expect them to work, but they actually hold their own in comparison to more expensive brands. They work a tiny bit slower (which I expected), but they've helped flatten quite a few of my pimples. I use ZitSticka for the really problematic pimples, and these for the pimples that aren't AS bad but still need to be drained. They're thin and discreet, but they do have a herbal-y scent, so just keep that in mind. Unfortunately, this brand's patches sometimes sell out, so make sure to have a backup brand. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid, and Cica. Did I mention there's 300 of them though? UPDATE (1/2026): #3: Daolyo Pimple Patches (~$10 (~$7 on sale) for 300 patches) These are basically the same as the ROSELYNBOUTIQUE ones—just a tiny bit cheaper and a tiny bit worse. I prefer ROSELYNBOUTIQUE, but those are sometimes sold out, and these are oftentimes on sale, so I buy these just so I'll have a huge stash. These are also on the thinner side, so they're discreet, but they DO sometimes fall off in my sleep (especially the ones I put on my chin) and also have a faint herbal-y scent. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid and Calendula Oil. #4: BIORICA (~$10 for 216 patches) UPDATE (1/2026): I tried these patches for a couple months, but they weren't really doing it for me, so I've since found some cheaper alternatives (see above). These are worth a try if you have sensitive skin, as they don't contain any Salicylic Acid or Calendula Oil. Unfortunately, IMO, they're not as effective as other brands. They loosen up and fall off once they absorb a lot of moisture (granted, I do cut them into smaller pieces, so that might be on me), and they turn into a sticky mess if I leave them on too long. Still, everyone's skin is different, so they're definitely worth a try. They come with a pimple popper tool, and their packaging is by far THE CUTEST, so I'll miss that the most. They also only contain Tea Tree Oil, as far as I could tell. #5: Avarelle (~$15 for 80 patches; ~$8 for 40 patches) These are probably the thinnest ones I've ever used. If you want a practically-invisible patch, you should try these. The adhesive is pretty average, so they're not the best but they're also not the worst. They come in a variety of sizes, and some of them are HUGE, so if you cut them into smaller pieces, you'll get a ton more uses out of them. They're not worth the $15 IMO though, so I've now found some cheaper alternatives. They contain Tea Tree Oil, Calendula Oil and Cica. #6: Mighty Patch (~$13 for 36 patches) These work very well and have a decent hold, but they're also kind of expensive for the amount of patches that they give you, so for just a few more dollars, I'd rather buy the ZitSticka ones since they work A LOT better for me, and for a better price, I'd rather get the ROSELYNBOUTIQUE/Daolyo ones, since they come with 300 instead of 36. Case in point, I don't really use these anymore, but they're a good option. Also, the only ingredient I could find was Hydrocolloid. #7: GRAMRIGHT (I don't even remember) #8: COSRX (~$14 for 96 patches) COSRX patches used to work really well, and the brand itself is great, but I'm putting them dead last because the last batch I purchased left awful, red burn-like marks. I don't know if they've since fixed their formula, but it took me a very long time to heal my literal WOUNDS, so I would never use these again. That's it for that! Additionally, I want to mention that the white stuff you see on the patches is not necessarily "gunk" from your pimple. It's really just the hydrocolloid reacting to moisture and forming a gel-like substance. Hydrocolloid patches are meant to absorb liquid—*any* liquid. That's why they're used for blisters as well. This means you can literally put them under running water and they will all turn white. It doesn't necessarily mean that the water has "gunk." Still, they work well, but I think it's just a common misconception for people to think of the white stuff as pus lol it's not. I hope this has been helpful :)

It fades my dark marks with just two patches of use. Good value for the effectiveness. Only fade patches I generally use. I’m a wild sleeper so the adhesive is a plus. Application is seamless.

Extremely small that was a disappointment the area I need it for is larger then a pimple Did not irritate my skin I have sensitive skin It was easy to apply and stayed on throughout the night 9p-7a I used it for scarring I’m making this review after my first time using it and I can see the difference one side the dark spot is completely gone the other side is noticeably lighter I’m extremely pleased with the results worth the money to me I see the negative reviews and I am glad I didn’t see them till now or I would’ve been discouraged from buying them they work for me I only got the 4 pack to test them just in case they didn’t work now I’m reordering more

Loved these! Saw result after first use, they helped dry out my breakouts overnight and reduced redness. Simple, effective, and def worth it!

These improves the appearance of leftover blemish marks—but I’m not sure it does enough to warrant the price point. At the time of writing this review, it’s $22.99/12 patches. I think that’s excessive for a slight improvement. I love ZitSticka’s regular pimple patches, but I don’t think this is the right medium or price point to improve dark spots/hyperpigmentation/etc.. These patches are only meant for 8-ish hours of single use. While that can jumpstart the process of repairing the skin, unless you’re buying the whole pack to use on just 1 or 2 problem spots, 12 stickers probably won’t be enough to see significant improvement. I’d recommend instead seeking out a gentle retinol cream for the same price point. The stickers are a nice idea, but you’re more likely to see lasting results with a product you can use consistently over a longer period of time.

While on the pricey side, these dark spot patches do work well. I can rely on them to reduce the appearance of acne marks.

one of my go too patches but doesnt have the same potency as before

My FAV pimple patches!!!!! Love the different size options, not just all one size. They work every single time I use them! Make sure you let all your other serums set in your skin before you put these on and they will stick so well! I have tried many other brands but this one I always repurchase🩷

Does wonders!

These are just the best. Massive spot patches you can cut to size and they're nice and sturdy so no problems with them filling up too quickly and/or peeling off during the day or disappearing into the bedsheets at night. Not ideal under makeup as they are very thick but if you use them often enough on at-home days or overnight, you'll have way fewer concerns like that. Other patches I've tried either only work overnight or are so thin and flimsy they fill up almost immediately. These ones you can wear for hours or overnight for really troublesome spots or cysts, but you can also just pop them over a spot and sometime get the desired result in half an hour. They have really great absorbing qualities, I've also used them for odd stuff like a low level infection near a fingernail or on a mosquito bite that won't calm down.

Was very hopeful for these as they claim to be able to ‘kill’ an emerging zit.. unfortunately the claims are not true. I used 2 patches—the recommended amount for ‘harder to kill zits.’ 1 overnight, and 1 for 5ish hours while working from home. The new blind pimple that I could feel starting to form beneath my skin is still emerging. I’m going to try using a third patch (so basically 3/4 of the box) but I don’t have high hopes anymore. Might just be good for regular zits, not blind ones. Definitely better ones out there though for a fraction of the price if that’s the case.

I am unsure how to rate these. I could definitely feel the microdarts. I have an underlying condition so I’m unsure if I reacted to them or if they’re really strong. (The ingredients aren’t ones I’m known to have issues with.) However, I trialled three dots before the pain was lasting days after removal, and there was no change in fading the area. I don’t think I’d recommend this. I would probably try speaking to a dermatologist about a situation of anything even similar to melasma or scarring from pimples as there are definitely things they can do but my understanding is that currently there is no quick fix.

Enough said :(
