Q: do these work on black heads?

submitted by ev - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello Ev, the Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch Original Acne Pimple Patches are designed to flatten pimples overnight but are not targeted for blackheads. Hope this helps!

    submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 4 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hi Ev, They do NOT work on blackheads but rather pimples that have pus in them. They will absorb out the pus and leave your pimples in a much better place.

  • A: They dont work on blackheads but works perfectly for pimple in the initial stage. Nice price for more patches than the other brands.

Q: are these acne patches okay for 11 year olds?

submitted by r - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi! I just looked into this a little for you and it looks like it may be a perfect option for an 11 year old. Gwyneth Paltrow has a wellness and lifestyle site where these are the first topical acne treatment listed under Clean Skin-Care Routines for Tweens and Teens . Hope this helps!

    submitted byKatt - 5 years ago
  • A: Yes our Mighty Patches are generally safe, but please note that we only test on consumers 18+. Since younger skin is usually more sensitive, we recommend to try leaving the patch on the pimple for only 4-6 hours at first, for children younger than 18 as a patch test. And to not use more than once or twice in the same area. If they have any sensitivity, then they should stop use and consult their doctor.

Q: Is it safe to leave on skin for longer than 12 hours?

submitted by Suz - 5 months ago
  • A: Great question! Mighty Patch™ Original is designed to be worn for up to 6–8 hours per use, or until the patch turns white. We recommend removing it after that time, cleansing the area, and applying a new patch if needed. Using it as directed helps ensure the best results and keeps your skin comfortable. 💚

    Really good pimple patch

    All pimple patches are just hydrocolloid, so they work basically the same way and most are similarly effective for me. However, I find that these stick well, are thin and comfortable (I don’t notice that I’m wearing them), not super noticeable, and absorb a lot of gunk!

    Perfect for daily and overnight use!

    I use these often during my hormonal acne flare ups and even on my back! I put one on during the daytime, typically during school, or leave it on overnight and the pimple is completely gone! So worth the money, i’ve been purchasing for years!

    Original mighty patch

    Absolutely love these I received these to try out when I ordered the deep “microdart patch and love them especially to use overnight they completely got all the gunk out of my pimple will most definitely be ordering these next time around. I love the fact that they give you something to try which makes it so much easier deciding what brand to get. The hero mighty patches are my all time favorite. Next I’d love to try is the extra large patch. Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks again for a wonderful product!!!

    I CAN NEVER NOT HAVE THESE

    This is my holy grail product. I have been using Hero pimple patches for almost six years now. Once I pop a pimple, I stick one of these bad boys on top and continue to swap them out until the pimple flattens and nothing else comes out. I have a tendency to touch exposed pimples so this protects my skin from getting bacteria in an already fragile location. My skin isn’t super sensitive, so I haven’t had an issue with these! I throw these into travel bags, and buy in large quantities.

    Great patches!

    I love how the patches work to reduce the swelling of pimples overnight. They're also subtle so I can wear them in public without it being obvious I have a pimple, and they help me not pop pimples because I can cover them up.

    this stuff saves my life

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the fact that incoming acne just went away. And it cured the existing ones, by shrinking them, and then just went away. It prevented me from picking on it.

    Saves my skin

    These patches are a life saver I always grab the biggest box I can when I need to restock. Whenever I feel a troubled spot coming on I know throwing a patch on overnight will prevent it from even starting. I’ve been using them since high school and turned my sister onto these patches because they really do prevent future breakouts.

    Best patches for acne! I even wear under my makeup!

    These are the absolute best for clearing up your acne quick, especially if you wear make up every day like myself. These also have a clear transparent option, and you can hardly notice them if notice them at all they absorb overnight when I wear these at night and my acne is clear in the morning. I highly recommend trying these if you haven’t, they have beaten every other brand I have tried.

    Literally my hero (:

    The Hero Mighty Patch™ Original is a skincare staple in my routine! It’s easy to apply, stays in place overnight, and helps visibly reduce the appearance of pimples by morning. I love that it works without drying out my skin or causing irritation. A simple, effective solution for unexpected breakouts!
