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 - 4 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. 💚

    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.

    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!

    Tiny Patch, Huge Results!

    I always keep Mighty Patch Original on hand because it works every single time. The hydrocolloid patch pulls gunk out in just a few hours, and I love that it helps me avoid picking — the physical shield really does make a difference. It stays put overnight, even through tossing and turning, and it never irritates my sensitive skin. The best part is waking up to see the patch turned opaque white — proof it absorbed everything. My whiteheads look noticeably flatter and calmer after one use, and if a blemish needs a little extra help, I just apply a second patch. Mighty Patch has become a staple in my routine because it’s gentle, effective, and truly delivers on its promise to shrink the look of pimples fast. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a simple, reliable solution that actually works.

    Tiny but Mighty!

    We always have these on-hand in my household! The mighty patch was my introduction to pimple patches and they set the bar exceptionally high. They are easy to apply, comfy, and blend well into my skin- I especially love that they are virtually undetectable during zoom calls. Gentle enough for my sensitive skin without losing any measure of effectiveness. The results (flatter and less red) are always soo satisfying and the removal is painless! Overall, they've earned a spot in my routine and deserve their spot on the Mount Rushmore of skincare.

    This is the only pimple patch that works for me, and 1-2 days after using it my pimple has cleared up. Best to use straight out of the shower, but can be used any time. It really is a miracle worker!

    My Hero (literally)

    At the first sign of a pimple I use these life savers. They absorb all the oil making me making me more confident and saving my skin in no time. They are clear and easy to peel off. I make sure I'm always stocked with at least 2 boxes.

    One of the best out there

    Anytime I see a lil pimple forming, I slap on this bad boy and go about my day because I know Hero has got my back. I don’t ever have to worry about a pimple ruining my day or disturbing my make up routine as these work so fast and significantly reduce the size of my acne overnight! So easy to use as well and I can literally get these anywhere near me and online which makes it even better
