Cosrx Acne Pimple Master for Covering Zits and Blemishes, Spot Stickers for Face and Skin. This is a convenient, quick solution to quickly deal with unexpected acne spots

Many people eat a balanced diet and clean their skin carefully every day, but they still get a few red pimples from time to time. The cause is usually hormonal changes.

Women often get this type of acne during their menstrual days. The pimples are usually located in the jawline area, near the lips. In addition to hormonal changes, it can also be caused by changes in the weather, or by working in an environment with a lot of dust. Here is my review of Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch, a product used to treat inflamed pimples like the ones mentioned above.

1. Packing of Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch

Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch comes in a zipper bag with 24 round patches attached to a plastic film. The patches have different diameters, from a few millimeters to about 1.2 centimeters. You can choose the appropriate patch size for your pimple.

The patches are transparent, so they will blend in with your skin when applied. Many people say that you can use foundation to cover them up. Personally, I will avoid wearing makeup as much as possible when I have acne.

In the past, when I had acne, I would often try to squeeze it and disinfect it. However, the result was that it became severely inflamed and took a long time to heal, resulting in scarring. The reason for this unscientific action is that my job requires me to interact with many customers. So I was eager to get rid of the acne.

Another case is the habit of touching the pimple, which is a habit that many people have. This habit makes the inflammation worse. Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch is a solution to prevent these cases and support the rapid treatment of inflamed pimples.

2. Actual Use

You can see that I have a swollen pimple right under my chin. In this position, the pimple is very often exposed to water and food. It is also more difficult to eat or clean my teeth than usual. Obviously, this type of acne is very unsightly and makes me less confident when communicating.

I use a patch before going to bed. Just a patch the size of a fingertip is enough to cover the entire pimple. Please note that you should cleanse your face thoroughly before applying the patch.

The patch sticks very well. I tried talking, moving my lips in different ways, but they still stayed in place. After one night, when I peeled it off, it pulled out the white pus. The base of the pimple was less red, swollen, and dry.

After that, I washed my face and applied another patch to prevent the open wound from being exposed to the environment. In another case, I applied a patch to a smaller, inflamed pimple, and by the afternoon, it had completely flattened.

3. Ingredients of Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch

I was a bit surprised when I discovered that the product only contains 07 ingredients:Cellulose Gum, Styrene Isoprene Styrene Block Copolymer, Polyisobutylene, Petroleum Resin, Polyurethane Film, Liquid Paraffin, Tetrakis Methane.

What surprised me more is that after the analysis, the results showed that there were no anti-inflammatory or antibacterial active ingredients in the product. The specific functions of each ingredient are as follows:

+ Cellulose Gum : In cosmetics, cellulose gum is used to thicken creams, lotions, and mascara. It is also used as a thickener for lipsticks and eye shadows. Cellulose gum is also used as a stabilizer in cosmetics that contain water and oil, such as moisturizers and sunscreens.

Cellulose gum is a safe and non-allergenic substance. It is recognized by the FDA as safe for use in food and cosmetics.

+ Styrene Isoprene Styrene Block Copolymer (SIS) is a polymer with a resilience close to natural rubber, which is likely the main component of adhesives.

+ Polyisobutylene (PIB) is a viscous, non-toxic, white, odorless liquid that has the ability to increase adhesion, water resistance, and electrical insulation.

This substance is also known as Polybutene (PB). It is the only type of rubber that is AIRTIGHT and can store air for a long time.

Polybutene (PB) has a wide range of applications from industrial to medical and food. For example, it is used to make gas-tight gaskets, food wraps, and medical wraps.

+ Petroleum Resin is an aromatic hydrocarbon compound, widely used in the production of adhesives.

+ Polyurethane Film is a type of synthetic plastic that makes up the backing sheet that contains 24 adhesive pads.

+ Liquid paraffin, also known as paraffinum liquidum, is a highly refined petroleum oil that is used in cosmetics and for medical purposes, such as laxatives.

I think this ingredient may be used to create a protective layer that prevents water or dirt from entering the patch while also moisturizing the acne area.

+ Tetrakis Methane: I have searched through many reference sources but I am still not sure what the effect of this substance is. The molecular structure has been presented in documents, but I have not seen any mention of its application in medicine or cosmetics.

4. Conclude

Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch is a hydrocolloid patch that can help conceal acne, making it look more presentable and hygienic. It is especially useful for people who go to work, school, or outdoor activities.

The product works by isolating the inflamed acne from the dirty environment, preventing the habit of touching it with the hands, and maintaining moisture in the inflamed area. This helps prevent the inflammation from worsening and speeds up the healing process.

In my experience, the product is effective and safe. For example, a red pimple can be healed after two applications. The speed of the sebum and swelling reduction is much faster than normal. For example, you can apply a patch at night and apply it again in the morning before going to work. By the evening, you can be assured that the pimple will be healed.

Please note that the Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch is not a long-term acne treatment. It is suitable for sudden acne breakouts. For those who suffer from allergic acne or hidden acne, this is only a temporary therapy that can help heal the acne faster, but it does not solve the root of the problem. When you see acne starting to appear, use it immediately to help it heal faster and prevent it from becoming more inflamed.

Due to the nature of my job, I have to constantly travel everywhere. My lifestyle is a bit erratic, and time is limited. Therefore, to maintain my health at the best possible level, I always try to limit fast food and replace it with fruits and vegetables. When it comes to skin care products, I put safety first. Because I don't have much time to do elaborate skin care steps, I like products that provide optimal results in a short time.
