6 Game-Changing Pimple Patches That Work Just As Good As The Cosrx Ones

Buh-bye, maskne! 👋
Senior Editor, Studio

It may seem like a good idea to just pop a zit whenever it, well, pops up, but the best thing to do is to slap a patch on it and let it disappear overnight.

It sounds like magic, doesn’t it? 

Pimple patches like the Cosrx one are flying off shelves for one reason: they work!

Editor's Choice: You Can Get These Game-Changing Pimple Patches For $12 On Amazon Canada

If you’re looking to quickly get rid of pimples, blackheads and other annoying blemishes so you look your best for that important Zoom meeting, try any of these best-selling products. 

Peace Out Salicylic Acid Acne Healing Dots

Price: $25

Details: Sometimes it’s not the size of the zit that’s annoying, it’s the colour. The aloe vera extract in each patch means it’s going to get rid of any redness so you don’t look like Rudolph in the morning.

Starface Hydro-Stars

Price: $20

Details: Talk about brilliant packaging. These star-shaped patches come in a yellow smiley face tin and mirror that's so cute, it almost makes pimple-fighting fun. Almost. 

Rael Acne Pimple Healing Patches

Price: $24.46

Details: While some patches are designed to work overnight while you’re catching Zs, this brand made an ultra thin and matte patch so you can wear it comfortably – and confidently – during work hours. 

Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch

Price: $17.99

Details: A lot of people online rate this overnight zit zapper a 10 out of 10! One customer even shared their genius idea of sticking the patches on under their mask to prevent any further irritation. 

Dr. Jart's Focuspot Micro Tip Patches

Price: $24

Details: This one’s a little more expensive since it only comes with two patches instead of the usual four. However, it works wonders on stubborn dark spots and those annoying pimples that think they can live rent-free under our skin.

Peach Slices Acne Spot Dots

Price: $21.66

Details: Just like Cosrx, Peach Slices is another K-beauty brand getting a lot of buzz for their fast-acting pimple patches. These stickers can go on overnight or underneath makeup during the day.
