Hi All,
What causes zits/acne and what prevents it? The whole life would go in search for a perfect answer! When hair follicles under our skin clog, it causes skin disease also known as pimples. (The medical term for pimple is Acne Vulgaris. )
So, what causes this clog? The dead skin cells and oil secretion! Voila…we know the answers and yet there is no assured way to prevent it as acne is caused due to a number of factors like your diet, sleeping conditions/hours, and hormonal changes too.
Now the good news is that there might be a solution to get rid of this embarrassing acne!
Nexcare has come up with an acne patch that is required to be applied on the acne and left on overnight! In the morning you get a clear face and you don’t need to bother about that untimely acne anymore!
Learn more about how to use this miracle product!
What the product claims: Nexcare acne patch is made of special material called hydrocolloid that acts like a sponge to absorb the oily secretion, fluid or pus that may be present. This provides an environment that is best for healing of acne. The product is chemical free so there is no fear of side effects. The breathable outer layer is a film that provides a protective cover against water and bacteria, thus making it waterproof & reduces the incidence of infection.
How to use it: steps are as follows-
1) Clean and dry the skin
2) Peel the acne patch from the strip according to the size of the acne.
3) Place it on the acne pressing the edges down.
4) Leave on for 6-8 hours
5) Remove when patch becomes white in color.
Price: Comes in assorted packs of Rs.100, Rs.85 & Rs.75
Shelf life: 5 yrs from date of mfg.
Mine is an oily, sensitive acne prone skin and once in a while I do suffer from acne! Sometimes it is severe and the other times it is less but somehow and no matter how much precautions I take I do get it once in a month!
I am sent this acne patch to experiment. Each pack has a round transparent patch that has to be applied on the skin.
The round patch is really transparent and with makeup you can camouflage it too! Yes, you can apply makeup on it! Isn’t that great?
Peel the patch from the stripe and apply the round patch on the areas affected with acne. (It works ONLY on pus filled acne).
Make sure that your skin is dry when acne patch is used. The patch should rest for atleast 8 hours on the acne. The round patch would turn white and that would be the correct time to remove it.
Acne patch is God’s gift to women who suffers from acne prone skin.
Nexcare acne patch special features-
- It is affordable.
- Has NO Chemical so there is no worries of side effects for people with sensitive skin
- It is a transparent patch and comes in different sizes so it can be applied on difficult places like over the nose and forehead as there are specific patches for that.
- Use of makeup on it would conceal the patch and you can attend that important meeting/party without being bothered!
- It is made up of special material hydrocolloid that provides perfect environment for acne to get healed.
- It prevents our inherent urge to pick or press the pimple, keeping it unaffected. This also prevents a mark or scar from being formed once the pimple is healed.
Will update the post with my experience soon 🙂
