Pimple patches changed my life (not exaggerating)

If you're not using hydrocolloid pimple patches, I need you to go to the store right now.

You stick one on a spot overnight, and in the morning it's flat and there's a white gunk circle on the patch. It's disgusting and it's the most satisfying thing I've ever seen. It also stops me from picking, which is honestly 90% of my problem.

The white circle is the best part. I look at it every morning like it's a scientific discovery.

they're the same stuff as blister bandages! you can buy the big sheets at the pharmacy and cut them yourself, way cheaper

this is genius, why didn't I think of it

They work best on spots that already have a head. On the deep, painful ones they don't do much. Learned that the hard way.

I wear the star-shaped ones out in public now. My coworkers ask which color I'm wearing that day. No shame.

@lyrakat_77 the little stars are so cute, I wear them on stream sometimes. chat thinks it's part of the look

the picking thing is so real. I'm a picker. a patch on the spot means I physically can't touch it. game changer
