Peace Out Skincare Clear Skin Duo. Hydrocolloid Anti-Acne Pimple Patches Bundle with Pre-Refining Nose and Face Strips with Retinol to Help Shrink Enlarged Pores and Help Remove Blackheads (2 Items)

Product is great but the seller sells one year past expiration date products I messaged them they didn’t bother responding. I felt like it was appropriate to warn others.

These are the best blemish patches ever made. They're more expensive than the average patches, but these have retinol. Love them.

I'm amazed at what these dots did overnight! The difference is pretty amazing for a stubborn zit that popped up that just wouldn't go away. Unfortunately, I'm only giving 3 stars because the patches I received were expired.

This is an awesome way to stop that stubborn zit !!

I've tested numerous acne patches, an upwards of 70 brands, so I pretty much know after one use which patches work great for my skin. If they don't give me results after one use I'll give it a few more tries over the course of the next few days. All that said, these ones work great on my skin! I can see why this brand is one of the popular ones carried by big name retailers. This pack comes with both the round dots and pore strip/large patch styles. This pack allows you to tackle small breakouts as well as cluster ones. I didn't have a super visible breakout on my skin but I used a few dots on it anyway. This was during the day time when I was in the comfort and privacy of my home, and within 2 hours I looked at the patch and wow - there was plenty of gunk sucked onto the dot already. I am definitely very impressed by these. The pore/large patch ones also works great, I tested it on my husband's skin as well. He had gotten bitten by something, mosquitoes or spiders, we're not sure, but he had 3 red bumps on his face. Within 2 hours it had sucked the gunk out as well and visibly deflated the red bumps. I would say for the pore strip style patches, wear them overnight before bed. If you are not used to wearing hydrocolloid acne patches, especially such a big patch over your nose, it may feel uncomfortable but hopefully you can just sleep through it and not let it bother you too much. You can also try cutting it in half or 1/3rds, and manually sticking them on different parts of your nose. That might be more comfortable when you're able to line them up in the way that doesn't block your nostrils. I personally also stuck these on my cheeks and chin and it was able to work just as well on the other areas. I wouldn't say to replace these with black nose pore strips because I still feel that they work differently. With black nose pore strips I can see little spikes coming off it when I pull it out. With these patches it is oil and dirt that was trapped in my pores. I think integrating both pore strips and these hydrocolloid strips to your pore cleaning routine will be complementary, as long as it isn't damaging your skin. These hydrocolloid patches definitely doesn't feel as harsh as the pore strips. Overall I think this is an excellent set, both items work great, and honestly if it weren't for the price I would have ordered these in bulk! This is definitely one of the pricier ones out there as you don't get a lot but at least I know this brand works great and FAST on my skin. The dots say it is made in the USA but I couldn't find where the pore patches are made. This is one of the few hydrocolloid brands, or at least these two varieties, made in the USA, if that stuff matters to you.

If I could give this set 10 stars I totally would! I have been using both of these product for years now, ever since they first because available at Sephora and could only be purchased there only. Both are absolute must haves for me and I make sure I never run out, ever. As you can see in the photos I currently happened to stock up and then happened to come across this set up for review on Amazon Vine. These Peace Out Skincare Clear Skin Duo. Acne Healing Dots (20 dots) Bundle with Hydrocolloid Pores Strips (4 pore and 4 nose strips) come with 2 packets of the acne healing dots with 10 dots in each mylar bag, and 4 each of the pore strips and nose strips. (The picture I have shows much more than what comes with this kit as I showed all of my backups that I paid for with my own money.) Basically the acne dots are the Cadillac of acne dots! They have sasicylic acid, vitamin A and Aloe Vera in them, and they are also a much bigger size than most other dots on the market. They will seriously shrink a pimple overnight! Sure they are pricy, but personally I think they work well enough to justify the price point, hence the amount of money I have spent on them over the years. The nose strips are equally as awesome! Not only do they clear all of the funk, white heads, and oil out of your pores, but they also gently pull out any blackheads I have as long as my skin was prepped well before using. Overall highly, highly recommend these!!!

Ugh, I wish these were less expensive because I really love using them. Pros: they work for ready-to-go acne in a matter of 2-6 hours, they're very close to the skin color, and they have a good texture on the outside. Cons: If you have a painful and deep pimple, they will not work on it. You'll have to wait for some time before they could work, and they can be painful to take off depending on the area of your skin, how sensitive it is, and how dry it is. I recommend using them after washing your face and before moisturizing, but I've noticed they still work if I put one on at sometime random during the day without washing. Since I have dry skin, I'll wash my skin, use a moisturizing toner, then pop one on and finish the rest of my skincare around them. You can use multiple at a time and they usually will work in around 4 hours, if it's not showing anything by 6 it's not going to help anything so definitely take it off and try again when the acne has a head showing. Would recommend keeping a pack around for time-sensitive scenarios, but probably shouldn't be an everyday usage if you aren't well-off financially, and I'm sorry to say, but it won't help any cystic or painful hormonal acne. A dermatologist is necessary for that. Also, it works for pretty much any acne on any spot. I recently got my cartilage pierced with a double helix and it had a bump on it and (for scientific purposes) I put one on it overnight. Bad idea and don't recommend it for safety purposes, but it actually got stuff out, made the bump smaller, didn't cause any scabbing or bleeding, and the bump healed back on its own with only a little bit of skin to peel later. They definitely work. Hope this review is helpful :)

These seem to work okay for the most part, but I can't really justify the price for the amount that's included. 6 pore strips and 30 patches for nearly $40 doesn't seem right for how average or less the results were. Both the patches and pore strips had no odor, which was nice. I've had pimple patches with a chemical smell before, which wasn't ideal. The patches work alright and don't dry out my skin too much; they feel like silicon patches. The same goes for the pore strips; they're a bit finicky to get to stick properly in the beginning, and I had to massage it all over my nose for 10 minutes to get it to stick right. I kept it on overnight, but the only thing it seemed to remove was some dry skin I have on the sides of my nose. Overall, I'm not very impressed with these.
