It is definitely much less noticeable than the original and you can barely see that it’s on. However it is not as effective as the original mighty patch. The area of hydrocolloid appears to be much smaller in this product and does not soak up as much excess fluid as the original one. If you are looking for a patch that is inconspicuous to cover up one of your spots during the day, then this is for you. Just know that it is not as powerful than the original.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These extremely small patches pack a mighty punch! They have been an absolute lifesaver with my skin's recent breakouts in this summer heat I have so many small whiteheads that can't be popped without damaging my skin. I love that these can provide coverage while actually treating and healing the blemish rather than me having to cover with makeup that actually makes the situation far far worse! I highly recommend. I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own.

I actually picked up this product while I was pregnant since it was safe for baby but it is seriously the best! I love how inconspicuous these little patches are so I can wear them when I’m out and about. They’re also great under a mask! I also recommend these for healing pimples. Get the subscription. They’re definitely good to have at all times.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Adult acne is the worst and Hero Patches help with all of my acne (hormonal, cystic, whiteheads, etc). The zits move through the acne phases quickly and my face heals faster after the zit! I really appreciate the reduced redness and zit size that comes along with these patches

These patches work wonders! They help to clear up white heads in a mere day or two as opposed to untreated white heads that can take up to a week to clear! It is a bonus that the patch helps with my terrible habit of picking at my face. They are worth EVERY penny.

Plenty of reviews already speak to how these work but I wanted to know if you can cover them with makeup. I got the invisible kind. With no makeup, the patch is impressively invisible however that does mean it doesn't fully hide the red spot. However when I put makeup over it, the makeup just made the patch more obvious by highlighting its edges. And I was quite artistic about it- I very carefully dabbed a bit of concealer trying to blend to the surrounding skin, and then used setting powder on top. From a distance it works. No red spot, and no patch. But it does make the patch visible from about the distance of a face-to-face conversation. I think i will still go for the makup vs without though. Btw I have super pale skin.

I initially got these in an Ipsy bag and had to come back and buy more. Out of all of the acne patches I’ve tried these really get all the gunk out of a pimple! They’re a little difficult for me to get off of the plastic (I have bad fingernails) but they stay on super securely. And these ones are almost invisible so I’ve worn them out under my mask before and not been worried.

This is the first product I used by the Hero brand and what got me hooked. These patches are unreal! I leave the house with them on because I forget I'm wearing them. Not only are they not easy to spot, I don't feel like I'm wearing a patch either. They do an amazing job on soaking up all the gunk and my pimples heal quickly. I've used other pimple patches of I've run out of these and I hate them! I always upgrade sure I have a few boxes of these patches on hand so I never run out.

These patches are a life saver. They work soo well, get rid of white heads so quickly, and are all satisfying to take off! Not only does it make the pimple go away fast, but it makes the pimple not noticeable in the meantime. I recommend this product and the original patches as well!

Do these patches get all the gunk out of a pimple? Sure. But it’s not worth it when your left with a dry irritated patch of skin. I do have sensitive skin, so that might be the issue. If you have sensitive skin, don’t try it. It won’t be worth it. I’m now having to put so much cicalfate cream to repair my dry damaged skin when the pimple probably would’ve gone away/healed faster and with less damage without the patch.
