“Hero Cosmetics, founded by Ju.Ru back in 2017, they're really the OG of Acne Patches and they are the ones that popularized them in North America. [...] Acne Patches have been around a long time in Korea and Japan, but it was really Hero Cosmetics that made them known to everybody else in the world. Ju.Ru founded Hero Cosmetics because she struggled with acne and having sensitive skin and just didn't really deal well with traditional acne treatments, causing more sensitivity. When she went back to Korea, she discovered hydrocolloid patches as a way of helping to treat acne, and that's why she brought them here to the US market. I love the fact that by doing so she also normalizes the stigma of acne. Hydrocolloid patches is actually a type of wound dressing that dermatologists have been using for a long time to heal various types of wounds. [...] Even though it's not the best acne treatment, it gives people options and certainly can be a great option.”

“There are salicylic acid in them, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, peptides. There are no other bad ingredients. I don't love that this does not disclose the percentage of salicylic acid, but overall this is a very good option. This one also contains niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and centella asiatica. I also found this very affordable.”
