Spot treatments for pimples are one of the best ways to target breakouts. Pimple patches, in particular, are one of our favorite ways to shrink a blemish, not just because they act fast, but because they’re so convenient. There’s just one problem: they’re designed to cover just one pimple, not an acne breakout. 

The Bioré® Paint & Peel Pimple Patch solves this problem with its innovative formula that goes on like a liquid spot treatment and peels off like a pimple patch. Skeptical customers thought it sounded too good to be true (honestly, same), but now swear by it, saying that it can “make pimples go away overnight.” Say less!! 

Bioré® Custom Pimple Patches Target Breakouts Overnight
Bioré® Paint & Peel Pimple Patch
Whether you want to target one pimple or a cluster, this spot treatment is designed with versatility in mind, allowing you to customize the size of your pimple patches to your specific skincare needs. The clear gel-to-patch formula features 1% salicylic acid and has a lip balm-like applicator tube that makes it easy to apply and glide the serum over the skin to form the patch. 

“I was feeling iffy about this,” one customer wrote. They used a small amount to cover a pimple and noted that it dried within 5 minutes. When they removed it in the morning, they “felt so much better.” Another customer calls the formula “genius,” and says it works better than patches because they can make whatever size they need. “It help[ed] me feel more confidence in my skin and [made] my pimples go away overnight,” explains another. 

The formula performance is so elite, UConn Men’s and Women’s Basketball team players swear by it as part of their “pre-game prep” so that their skin looks good on and off the court.

To make the custom pimple patches, apply an even layer over the area you wish to target and let it dry. Peel it off four hours later—or in the morning if you wish to sleep in it overnight—and you’ll see a difference in the size and shape of your pimple. Continue using the formula until the blemish completely clears. For more stubborn breakouts, it can take about three days to see a major difference.
