Pore Strips by SKINCHOICE - Breakout Patch XL Hydrocolloid Nose Strips to Unclog and Shrink Pores, Nose Patch Absorbs Oil, Acne Pimple Spot Blackhead Remover, Vegan (Pack of 10)

Product Information

We tried over a dozen in The Lab to figure out which ones work—extra points for comfortable wear and pain-free removal. Hydrocolloid patches (or acne patches) are skin care treatments that originated in the medical world: Hydrocolloid dressing is a sticky yet dry, cellulose-feeling fabric that is used over injury or scars for wound-healing. Made from hydrocolloid infused with derm-backed ingredients, these gentle strips stick to your nose like a second skin and remove easily without ripping or tugging. Though the last couple of minutes were slightly uncomfortable, the stiffening made her feel that it was working.

Pore strips won't make your pores look bigger, but they often don't work, so sometimes pores are simply getting fulleron their own despite using pore strips," says Dr.

And if you're looking to remove blackheads and clogged pores on your chin or forehead, consider a set that has strips specially designed to fit each part of your face.

While we're all for an occasional treatment, you're probably better off with a lactic acid or salicylic acid peel than a pore patch. This three-in-one kit comes with 24 salicylic acid dots for treating pimples, 24 hydrocolloid dots for whiteheads, and three charcoal nose strips.

With their advice, we compiled a list of 7 promising pore strips and sent nine testers to try them out in our lab and at home. With their advice, we rounded up 14 promising products in a range of sizes and ingredients to suit different skin types and needs. After inspecting the ingredients lists, intended uses, and guidelines, each option was applied according to the instructions. It has a gel layer that’s formulated with pectin or gelatin and other ingredients that attract water and absorb fluids (such as pus).
