Summary of reviews

The Differin pimple patches have received mixed reviews from guests. While some guests appreciate their thin, nearly invisible design and effectiveness in reducing redness and swelling, others find them ineffective in drawing out impurities or staying in place. The patches are praised for their comfort and ability to blend with the skin, making them suitable for daytime use. However, some guests report no noticeable improvement in their acne, suggesting that results may vary based on individual skin types.

    Scam. The outside package is showing 36 clear patches. When i opening the package. Only found 12 clear patches. Looks like someone bought, used and returned it! I could do the same thing. Just return it to the target for resale. But really unfair for the next purchaser .Really disappointed!!! Target should be serious about the beauty return policy.

    Since Diferin's adapalene gel works great, I figured these would as well. They stick well and are invisible against your skin, but that's about all they have going for them. They don't work at all. I wore a few overnight on top of some pimples I had popped. In the morning, the patches were still perfectly invisible/clear. They hadn't absorbed anything and they didn't help with the inflammation either.

    Do not buy. It’s too sticky and does not do anything. It does not absorb at all. If anything it has worsened my pimples because it was too sticky and tipped off some skin. Never purchasing again.

    It's hard to believe these are priced at $10. They don't do anything to heal blemishes. It's like throwing a sticker on your pimples. Look elsewhere.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The effectiveness of this product was minimal for me. The packaging was also hard to open . It did not have any smells and it don’t not irritate my skin. It stayed on my skin over night . It’s not worth the price since it didn’t work for my skin

    These are nice and thin for daily wear, however they don’t seem to do much other than cover up blemishes. They don’t pull anything out, help heal, or actually reduce pimple size.

    If you are able to even get this to stick to your face, it does nothing. You’d have more results with scotch tape than these “medicated” patches.

    Worst pimple patches I’ve ever purchased. They will adhere to completely dry, product-free skin, and are very thin as advertised, but they are not effective at all at shrinking the size of my pimples as advertised. Complete waste of money.

    Do not buy these. I’ve tried other patches before and these do nothing. It does not reduce swelling, size, or redness. These are by far one of the worst patches that I have tried.

    I have tried at least 10 different brands of pimple patches and these were by far the worst. They did absolutely nothing. However they are extremely thin and sheer so I have used them a few times to cover a pimple when going out so they weren’t a complete waste.
