LitBear T-Zone Patch (2 Size 30 Patches), XL Hydrocolloid Patch for Nose Forehead Chin Oily Pore, Pimple, Zit, Hydrocolloid Nose Strips to Absorb Acne Gunk Overnight, with Tea Tree & Calendula Oil

Perhaps it was on me because I didn’t read the fine print. However, I thought these were those pore patches similar to the ones Biore offers, however these are very different- they stay on 6-8 HOURS. I personally had a hard time with them because I didn’t put them on directly before bed so they kind of started to peel off and got itchy. I think they did a good job though because my pores looked pretty good after I rinsed the white gunk stuff off.

I used this product to treat mild acne breakouts and minimize small lines. I have used colloidal patches for many years from a company called Cosmesearch and they were very effective. They were a little more expensive and are now unavailable on Amazon. As a result I needed to try other brands. This one was the best substitute I have tried and worked fairly well for me. However it really isn't thick enough or sticky enough to stay on very well. Some pieces came off while sleeping. Also because it is thin and not that sticky, it is difficult to reuse pieces again. For me these were not quite as effective at drawing out impurities as the ones from Cosmesearch, but they still did help reduce inflamation considerably.

I love how large they are. The triangles are perfect for having multiple bumps in an area

So far I’ve only tried the nose strips which is what I bought this for and I’m pleasantly surprised. In some reviews I read people said they didn’t stay on but I didn’t have that issue. My guess is those reviewers tried to apply it after putting on skincare which can cause that effect. But he only downside about them is sometimes the part toward the tip of my nose tickles my nose when I’m trying to sleep. You can see all the yuck it pulled out of my nose. It’s not a miracle patch so there is still a little bit of congestion in my nose pores but it’s far cleaner looking.

I use this to help combat demodex patches on my skin. Cuts off their oxygen supply, contains tea tree oil to kill them, and is still gentle on the skin. Helps calm the skin ecosystem, absorb fat soluble toxins in skin sebum, along with zit contents. The nose strip works also on the chin, and could be cut to fit odd spots on the face. Works better than other brands. Will buy again.

Price

I did try one of these recently, and it was comfortable enough for me to go to sleep. Unfortunately I apparently took such offense to the thing that I tore it off and threw it across the room in my sleep. Will need to attempt to use during the day.

Not bad for $8. Through I did graze one of the patches against the back of the plastic sheeting they come attached to and it STUCK TF ON. Gently pulling it off wasn't an option. Stretched out and ruined... so.. be careful of that.
