About this item

Highlights

  • SALICYLIC ACID: Made with salicylic acid, these stars absorb fluid while helping to dissolve dead skin cells and unclog pores.
  • AWARD-WINNING FORMULA: Hydro-Stars are made with hydrocolloid, a material that’s clinically proven to help absorb fluid, reduce redness, and shrink spots while feeling cute.
  • PICKING PROTECTION: These blue stars protect your spots from outside bacteria and serve as a gentle reminder to avoid skin picking.
  • UNCLOGS PORES: Hydro-Star® + Salicylic Acid Patches are perfect for spots that need something more powerful. Because hydrocolloid and salicylic acid work together to dissolve dead skin cells and absorb fluid, deep spots might like these stars best.
  • FOR EVERYONE, ALWAYS: Hydro-Stars are vegan, cruelty free, dermatologist tested, Target Clean, and safe for every skin type, including sensitive.
  • ANYTIME, ANY SPOT: Let your Hydro-Stars work their magic overnight, or any time for 6+ hours and limit use to 1-3x per week.
  • SPECIAL SHAPE: The star shape is cute and effective: their little arms hug the more difficult-to-reach contours of your face, like the corners of your nose or sides of your lips.
  • PRO PIMPLE: Hydro-Stars turn caring for your skin into a moment of self-expression and fun.

Guests are saying

The product is a decorative acne patch that some guests find effective for reducing inflammation and preventing picking, while others feel it doesn't stick well or absorb effectively. The cute star design is a hit, but opinions on its functionality are mixed. The salicylic acid ingredient is appreciated by some for targeting deeper pimples.

    disapointed

    i usually buy these specific ones when i have a breakout under the skin. it may have been a bad batch but none of these are sticking to anything but the plastic that’s on top when you open it?? im really upset because i usually love these and they do work and idk if i can return them since they’re open.

    Bad batch

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wasn’t like my usual purchase. I literally purchase star patches monthly and these may have been a bad batch. They were thin and not sticky and the plastic didn’t have the folds on them like they usually do to remove the patches. They also were literally falling off my face. Kind of sad because this never happens. This must have been a bad batch.

    My gurrl

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sal Acid Hydrostars are my gurrl. My twin bestie fr, if you will. They adhere to my spots and actually double down on shrinkage for my open cystic acne.

    Spots are noticeably smaller/less red

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spots are noticeably smaller/less red overnight, usually! I use these a lot. Be careful with these/any salicylic acid product when you’re using other acne products or exfoliants, you may peel a little in that area :) these by themselves usually do the trick and other products aren’t needed for typical spots!

    Useless

    They did absolutely nothing. Worn for 8-12 hours two nights in a row with no change. They did stay on, so I guess there’s that…

    Wouldn’t buy again

    I bought two of these and one of the boxes was literally empty. . I tried to return it, but I wasn’t able to. The actual patches aren’t that sticky and fall off easily. Plus, they did absolutely nothing even after leaving it on for a little over 8 hours.

    Amazing

    For a long time I was debating whether I should get these or not. I wasn’t sure whether people just liked them because they were popular or they actually worked. I finally decided to get them and let me tell you, they worked so well! These have been doing wonders for my skin! I know everyone’s skin type is different, but they worked great for me!

    Favorite patch on the market

    I don’t write product reviews but I had to for these. I’ve re purchased these three times now , they really do work. Everyone that’s commenting about them falling off are simply just not prepping their skin right for the the patch. I make sure I don’t put moisturizer or greasy products over my pimple, the patch will do its job.

    fan of salicylic acid

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of the most effective patches I've ever used, and its sky blue color looks beautiful on my face. They're great. Their star shape allows them to target any pimple. When I start using them, I notice the difference within two days: they shrink, aren't red, and the fluid starts to drain out. By the third day, the pimple starts to disappear.

    Okay :/

    These patches are so cute! They truly did pull all the gunk the the surface. But it is SO hard to actually keep them on your skin. They don’t stick very well at all. Other than that, I love them!
