Rael Microneedle Acne Healing Patch - Pimple Acne Spot Tea Tree Treatment (4Pack, 36 Patches)

Eine große Enttäuschung. Es wäre besser, den Miracle Pickelpflaster (Rosa-Packung) zu kaufen. Das wirkt ziemlich besser.

Want to feel young again? These patches will transport you back to that awkward pubescent phase when your breakouts were so heinous that you considered wearing a full ski mask to school. I am 40 years old and do not have “problem skin.” My face is, for the most part, pretty clear. I will periodically get small whiteheads here and there and, every once in a while, I will get one of those beneath the skin monsters that aches from the depths of my face but refuses to surface. I only recently discovered that acne spot patches were a thing and, while skeptical, I felt an urge to order some to have on hand for when unwanted visitors decide to “pop up.” I was pleasantly surprised by the first brand of patches that I used. They diminished whiteheads in less than 2 days, leaving behind nothing but a glorious, soiled circle of triumph. It seemed like sorcery. However, while they provided a tiny bit of relief for those mammoth, subterranean variety of pimples, they were clearly not the most effective treatment. When I heard that microneedle patches existed, I was on the hunt. The brand I Usually use doesn’t make them so, after seeing so many great reviews, I decided I couldn’t go wrong with these Rael patches. It turns out I could and I did. Really wrong. Either I got a bad batch or the reviews are doctored because these satan stickers cursed my skin. I had a small whitehead and a deep doozy so I slapped a patch on both, following the directions carefully. After the first application, I saw zero positive differences in either of the zits — all I found was a sticky, crusty residue. I would also like to mention the fact that the Rael patches showed no clear signs of absorption. After siting on an affected area for an extended period of time, the patches that I previously used would turn white. These did not. Convinced they just took time to do their thing, so continued using these things for a few days. Instead of clearing the blemishes, it irritated them. It also caused them to multiply. As you can see in the image, my jawline looks angry. LARGE zits surfaced around the still thriving existing ones. The under-the-skin zit actually grew and worsened. I feel like I may have to just raise it and send it to college at this point. I’m trying to make light of this but it actually is pretty terrible. I’m a grown woman and I have an awkward teenager’s complexion right now. It’s embarrassing. My skin doesn’t act like this. It is definitely the Rael patches. Do not buy these, the only thing they reduce is self esteem.

Love these for when I feel a deep cystic spot coming in!

As expected

The price is out of this world. It’s almost $2 per tiny patch of hydrocolloid with tea tree oil. I’ve tried out of sheer curiosity as I’ve been using regular hydrocolloid bandaids (cut in little pieces) for over ten years - obviously at a much better price, though it’s not over packaged sold for desperate people with skin problems, it’s worked absolutely perfectly. This product is a rip off, over packaged and over priced. Also sticks like a sore thumb on your skin, don’t fool yourself thinking it’s invisible. It’s also impossible to lay flat because it’s so thin. I recommend all the ones out there looking for a simple solution that doesn’t put them in financial deficit (because I know the feeling of despair trying to cure acne) to just get those hydrocolloid blister bandaids, and cut them to size. Clean properly your wound first and leave it on as long as you can. Much more efficient since it’s a lot thicker, and a lot less pricey! Good luck Xxx
