Farmstay Dermacube Acne Calming Spot Patch

Start with clean, dry skin with no cream or makeup on the area. Peel off one patch, press it over the blemish and smooth down the edges so it sticks well. Leave it on for eight to ten hours, or overnight, then peel off gently. Use a fresh patch each time; do not reapply a used one.

Yes. The patches are transparent and ultra-thin, so they sit discreetly on the skin and are barely visible. Apply the patch to clean, dry skin first, then apply makeup gently around and lightly over it. This lets you cover a blemish during the day while keeping the area protected from touching and rubbing.

They form a thin, protective cover over a blemish, which shields the area and stops you touching or picking at it while it settles. The transparent film keeps the spot out of sight, and tea tree in the formula helps the area look calmer. They care for the look of the skin rather than treating it medically.

Leave each patch on for about eight to ten hours, which makes them ideal to wear overnight or through a working day. After that, peel it off gently and, if needed, apply a fresh one. Using them on freshly cleansed skin helps them adhere well and stay put for the full wear time.

The patches are designed to be gentle and contain soothing tea tree, but they do include salicylic acid and fragrance-related plant extracts, so very sensitive or reactive skin should patch-test on a small area first. If you notice any stinging, redness or irritation, remove the patch. Apply only to intact skin, never to broken or open areas.

Yes. Because they are transparent and slim, they work discreetly during the day under or around makeup, and comfortably overnight. Many people keep a few on hand for whenever a blemish appears. Use a fresh patch for each application and always start with clean, dry skin so it adheres properly and stays in place.

The patches contain a skin-friendly adhesive film along with tea tree oil and leaf extract, purslane and witch hazel, plus humectants like glycerin. Tea tree is well known in skincare for helping blemish-prone skin look calmer. The full ingredient list is shown on this page; patch-test first if your skin reacts easily to plant extracts.

They are best suited to raised, surfaced blemishes where the patch can sit flat and adhere well. They are less suited to flat marks or areas under heavy movement. Apply to clean, dry, intact skin only, never to broken or irritated skin. If a blemish is painful, spreading or not settling, see a pharmacist or doctor.
