AVARELLE XL Large Hydrocolloid Acne Cover Patches for Face & Body 8 Count

Update: as you can see in the photo the bigger patch is Avarelle and maybe I’m just terrible at applying it or maybe it’s the area I applied it but it did get wrinkly. It looks like it didn’t do much but it’s cause the whole patch sucked out the oils and some dead skin so you can’t see a huge difference. But overall the area where I had the patch on feels a lot smoother and cleaner. TLDR: Bigger and thinner than mighty patch, just as effective. For half the price!!! Great at drawing out sebum and oil. Recommend if mighty patch is out of your budget! For context, I’m currently a 20 year old college student and my acne has been through many ups and downs and unfortunately this time was a down. For the past couple of weeks I have actually been eyeing this product as well as the mighty patch. So I decided to order them both to try and see how they compare as one is twice as expensive as the other. The mighty patch consists of 10 patches for 17.99, while the Avarelle patch has 8 patches for half the price(8.50). In terms of size, I was pleasantly surprised with how big it was, the Avarelle patch covers a larger surface area and is in the shape of a square. The mighty patch is more rectangular and I would say half the size of the Avarelle patches. In terms of flexibility and thickness the Avarelle is slightly thinner and has the slightest bit more stretch than the mighty patch. Both stick on through out the night very well and didn’t budge even through my toss and turns. I would say that when putting on the Avarelle patch you might have to be slightly careful with where you apply it because I applied it between my jaw and neck area and it did wrinkle a bit and when I removed it, it did leave a slight mark from the patch. (THEN AGAIN, it might have just been the way I applied it and unfortunately I forgot to take pictures. But I will be posting an update when I use it again!) Now the real question is, were they effective? If you look at other reviews and pictures you will see that the patches extracted lots of sebum and oil. And that is true for both! (AGAIN WILL BE POSTING PICTURES WHEN THE NEXT TIME I USE!) Both acted the same, and I wouldn’t necessarily say they were uncomfortable but you can definitely feel the patch there. (So maybe for those with sensitive skin, be careful when taking off the patch) All in all, I would say they are both equally as effective, BUT Avarelle patches are bigger and cover more surface area than the mighty patch. It’s also slightly thinner and flexible than the other. AND IT WORKS JUST AS WELL FOR HALF THE PRICE! If you need a quick patch that works in removing oils and have an area with pimples that’s ready to pop, this is the product for you!

I'll start this off by letting you know I've suffered with acne for probably close to 20 years. It started in my pre-teens and now that I hit the big 3-0 it finally seems to have stopped. Soon while I'm no longer dealing with huge zits the size of Mount Everest I still get clogged pores because they are enlarged from my previous acne battles. My cheeks and chin looks like they're covered in moon craters and when I use an extractor on the pores a ton of sebum comes out. So rather than continuously stick a ton of little tiny circles on my face that are meant for individual zits I figured I'd try these extra large patches. Wow. They worked absolutely amazing. I feel like when I use the individual small dots the other companies make I have to press really hard on my face to make sure they adhere well. That was not a problem at all here. The adhesion was fantastic and when it came time to remove the patches it didn't feel like I was ripping off my flesh. I could see all the gross and yet satisfying little white blobs on the patch from where it had absorbed my excessive sebum and bacteria while I slept. My pores looked so much smaller because all of that gross stuff that was clogging them had been removed and they could shrink back to a normal size. Seriously, this stuff is great. These did way better than any pore strips I ever used have and they were less painful to use. Oh, I like to add that this company sent me a really cute card via snail mail to thank me for my purchase and I love that the design was made by a talented woman with special needs named Eun Song. I already like to support small businesses, but those who are equal opportunity employers and hire individuals who are differently-abled is something I absolutely have a soft spot for. So go buy these if you want to have baby-soft poreless skin and are tired of it looking like Neil Armstrong should be planting a flag on your face.

I bought this patches to use as a layer of protection between my face and the mask I have to wear at work for +12 hrs. I was getting too many breakouts due to mask wearing and this patches have helped decrease the amount of maskne I get. I cut the square shape of each patch into two rectangles and apply each to my cheeks on the area where I'm more prone to getting cystic acne. The breakouts have not been prevented a 100% but have definitely been reduced. I've only got small pimples and no cystic breakouts because I'm still using Differin. I've recently started cutting each square patch into 4 long pieces and applying one along my chin to prevent chin maskne and it has helped as well. Before these patches I had tried tegaderm and duoderm but they both actually made me break out and were so hard to remove that my skin was very irritated after removal. The biggest downside is that at $8 is pretty much a dollar per patch and that money adds up. That's why I only use them for work. Wish the store had a package deal. They're still the most affordable ones I've found so far tho. The other problem is that the patch molds a little with facial expressions and wrinkles a little which makes your face have some marks after removal as if you slept on your face. Makes me think with prolonged use, as in years of use, I'll get wrinkles. But if I keep the patch not to close to my mouth the wrinkling is less. I'm aware the patches are made for occasional use but I'm reviewing how they work for what I'm actually using them.

So much cheaper than the pre-cut ones. Work great. Also thinner- more discrete.

I have ordered these particular patches over 10 times, so it’s safe to say I’m a huge fan of the product. I like the extra large patches bc you can cut them down with scissors as small or as big as you want… no wasted product & you're getting way more uses out of a package than if you buy the individual size ones. Result wise, this brand works better than any of the other ones I’ve tried. I put it on overnight and the difference in swelling and redness by morning is obvious! You can see how well it worked when you take it off and see the “evidence” on the patch. When I find a product that I swear by, I always like to share with others! Best bang for your buck and the patches give you great results!

I really like the idea of such large patches...but I can't hello but think that these should actually be cheaper than the dots. Same brand you get a pack of 4 dots, but what do they do with the part they peel away? And doesn't it cost more to cut out a ton of dots, and despose of the cutout part, creating waste when they could sell sheets like this cheaper? Pretty sure it's cheaper to manufacture sheets...but you only get 8, and one didn't want to stick. I've only used 1 1/2 sheets so far but I've used lota of their dots. I liked then at first but they left severe dryness thsr requires Aquaphor for 3 days after use. I've found my holy grail type after much searching, and while this brand does work well, adheres well, they need replaced too often for the price compared to the other brand I found. I may buy the squares again just for emergency large area breakouts, but...for what you get, the pricing could be much better, and no dryness with the other brand. The large patches are also pretty hard to peel and apply without it doubling on itself, I'll probably cut them in half or smaller to.maximize usage for cost.

Holy crap did these things work. I have TERRIBLE acne on my jaw line and neck and I’m the first to admit that I’m not good at keeping a skin care routine. Or any routine in general. So I’m always looking for a quick fix fully realizing that most “quick fixes” are just a waste of money. But let me tell you, this is a great quick fix. I’ve been putting one on each side of my jaw line each night, targeting different areas each time, go to sleep and wake up with my pores sucked of all the gross stuff. Let me tell you, it is disgustingly fascinating looking at all the crap this stuff pulled out of my face. I cleaned with micellar water and let my face dry then pop one of these on. They are VERY sticky and sticks to itself very easily, so be careful pulling them off the strips. But getting them on was really easy and they don’t budge at all at night. I toss and turn a lot and was worried these would fall off, like many other spot stickers I’ve tried, but these worked amazing. Like I said, they are super sticky, so getting them off is much like ripping off a very large bandaid from your face. Stings a little but you get over it quick. Don’t wear these if you have to be presentable first thing in the morning though!! If you sleep in them you will end up with skin imprints from the pressure of the sticker, but they don’t last any longer than the imprints you get from your sheets, but could affect your makeup routine. Overall, AMAZING product. 15/10. I’ve signed up for a subscription they’re that amazing.

I've bought products from cosrx, peach slices, mighty patch, and amazon hydrocolloid bandages. most of them essentially do the same thing, though I'd say cosrx would be another favorite because it has decent adhesion and varying sizes. but i'd say this brand is pretty good as long as you have dry, clean skin to put it on. this product is great because each patch is huge and i tend to cut my patches up to custom sizes to fit my patch. obviously, these patches do not magically pull the stuff out of your skin, but it does help bring it up so it can come out with a wipe. i usually wear hydrocolloid patches to bed and only on dry spots of my face during the day because it will not stick very well to oily or sweaty skin as I go about my day.

Bought this as i hated using up all the small dots at a time if i felt inhad a problematic area. As you can see from the photos its great!

Fait son taff! Je recommande!!

Sembra un buon prodotto avevo un brufolo bello grosso dopo diverse applicazioni di questo patch si è ridotto abbastanza non fa miracoli ma funziona

今まで丸いタイプのニキビバッチを利用してきまきたが、直ぐに取れることが悩みでした！ 顎付近に2つ赤ニキビができてしまい、急遽こちらを購入。 自分で大きさをカットできるのも良いポイント。 敏感肌ですが7.8時間貼り付けてもかぶれませんでした。 通常より早く治りそうでとても良い買い物になりました。 ただ、お化粧はシートの上からしてません。 剥がれそうな気がして…… 洗顔後。乾いた肌に直接つけました！ 剥がれることも無く、リピ決定です。 パッケージは古いタイプかな？ それ以外は、満足なので☆5個です。

São muito bons por podermos cortar para o tamanho desejado, no entanto prefiro os da mesma marca em formato individual ( adesivo)
