Description

Blemishes happen but Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch Original is your blemish hero. If you’re wondering how to quickly handle a sudden breakout, this gentle pimple patch puts you back in control of your skincare journey. They work great on whiteheads: Simply apply the medical grade hydrocolloid patch over your blemish before bed and wear it while you sleep. It gently absorbs gunk in just 6 hours and visibly shows it is working by turning opaque and white. Mighty Patch shrinks the look of pimples in just 1 use so zits look better by the AM. And if you’re prone to popping and picking? These acne patches provide a protective barrier to help protect zits from picking and popping, plus they help shield skin from dirt and bacteria. Completely drug free and dermatologist tested, this overnight spot treatment is suitable for sensitive skin. Skincare is personal, and perfectly airbrushed skin is not the goal– feeling perfectly you in your skin, is. We create products that help reveal the hero that exists within you.

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.

    submitted byHero Cosmetics - 4 years ago
    Brand expert

  • 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: Will these come off while swimming?

submitted by Suz - 5 years ago

  • A: It will stay on but the top gets sticky

    submitted byOnline only - 1 year ago

  • A: If you apply our Mighty Patches to skin right after cleansing (ie, there is no product like moisturizer or serum between the skin and the patch), then it won't come off during swimmer or even in the shower.

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.

submitted by skaizun - 2 months ago

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

submitted by Suz - 7 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. 💚

    A pimple at my age? Really?

    You would think at 70 my days of pimples would be long gone. Nope, every now and then I'll wake up with a zit. And , of course, usually in an obvious place. This time it was beside my ear. Not noticeable but sore. I bought a small pack of Mighty Patches. Where were you when I was a teenager? Clearasil was about the only product available and it didn't work as well as we all wished. I wore a small translucent patch for two days and no more spot! My skin can be a little sensitive but this patch did what I'd hoped without irritating my skin at all! Thank you!

    The original and the best

    I am in my 50s but still get acne and other skin problems. Mighty Patch™ The Original was the first brand of acne patches I've ever tried, and so far, the best.

    They actually do work. So happy I found them and wish I had found them sooner. I hope people know that these are real reviews. I plan on getting the patches in every formula. I'm just so happy I found this brand and that it actually works.

    They work!

    I love these patches. I have been trying these "zit" patches by various brands. Hero is one of my favorites. Hero is a bit more expensive than some of the others I have tried, but they adhere well and blend into my skin. It is not obvious when I am wearing them. I only wear them when I am at home, but I have gone out shopping and realized that I still had one or two on my face. They blend in so well it is very easy to forget to take them off before leaving the house.

    A part of me was pretty skeptical about these patches, but they’re surprisingly effective. If I ever run out, I will definitely be repurchasing them. A little pricey, but worth it.
