What the gurus are saying

The gurus who tested these praise them for actually working on whiteheads and early breakouts, with one expert calling them the best pimple patch available. The combo of salicylic acid, retinoid (retinol palmitate or retinyl acetate), and hydrating aloe sets them apart; the aloe means they won't leave skin parched the way some patches do. They're pricier than many alternatives, but the experts say that cost tracks with cleaner formulation and real results, especially for anyone dealing with adult acne.

"I've used these for more than five years now and my love for them has not changed. These are fantastic and they really do set themselves apart from everyone else. They have hydrocolloid polymer technology with salicylic acid, and this also has a retinoid in it. The retinal acetate is a great addition to have in a pimple patch that actually works. I love these for adult acne if you get whiteheads, blackheads that turn into whiteheads, or breakouts. The aloe vera in here is also hydrating so these don't dry out the skin. They are a little bit more expensive, but if you're looking for a flat invisible pimple patch that actually works and you've got the money for them, I would say that these are the best ones."

"Peace Out Acne Dots, 20 patches for 19 dollars. These contain 0.5 percent salicylic acid, and they also contain aloe and retinol palmitate. You get a little bit better bang for your buck here. The Peace Out ones are far more simple, they have very few unnecessary ingredients in there. I really like the Peace Out brand face patches for this reason."
