[REVIEW] ARTPE Micro-Pyramid Spot Patch Set

I received this product from the Mishe Beauty Report Club. These patches are similar to the COSRX pimple patches which I'm sure many of you are already familiar with because they have been all the rage in the K-beauty world. I wanted to try this product out because I get breakouts pretty often and I wanted to find the perfect solution to combat them.

About The Product

These patches are designed with micro-needle technology to help eliminate blemishes and prevent the spread of bacteria. They are formulated with salicylic acid (to eliminate the blemish), green tea extract (an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ingredient) and hyaluronic acid (to prevent your skin from drying out). The patches are also free of parabens, synthetic colours and fragrance. They are intended for oily and acne prone skin types but I'm sure that anyone who gets breakouts can use these.

Packaging

These spot patches come in 4 different sizes. The largest size comes in a set of 4 and are in the blue bag. The medium size comes in a set of 9 and are in the pink bag. The two smallest sizes come in a set of 12 and come in a smaller blue bag. In my opinion, I think that there is too much unnecessary packaging for this product. They all come in a cardboard box and inside the box there is 3 separate bags for the different sizes of patches. For the largest and medium sizes, the patches also come in a clear, plastic case. In all honestly, I really appreciate that they want the product to be as hygienic as possible but by doing so, they are creating a lot of unnecessary waste because all of these patches could easily fit into one of the resealable bags (If you are familiar with the COSRX pimple patches, than you know what I'm referring to).

Application

The spot patches are on a clear, sheet of plastic which makes them very easy to peel off and apply to your face. I usually only use these at night but if I were to use them during the day, it wouldn't be too noticeable because these patches are much thinner than the COSRX ones.

Whenever you are applying these, make sure that you do so on clean, dry skin because if you have other skincare products on your skin, the adhesive won't stick well. I usually put these on right after I air-dry my face.

Results

As mentioned earlier, I put one of these on my pimple at night and in the morning when I peel off the patch, the pimple has significantly reduced in size and the inflammation has reduced as well. When you look at the patch, there is traces of sebum, dirt, etc that was inside the pimple (honestly, it was kind of gross so I didn't want to insert a picture).

They are really easy to use and perfect for people who don't have time to consistently do different acne treatments. The patches are also very travel-friendly and will be great for me to bring on my Bermuda/Bahamas trip in August. I would recommend this to people who get breakouts here and there occasionally, but if you have severe acne, than perhaps you should try a different product instead.

Price/ Where To Buy

You can purchase this product from Mishebeauty.com for $19.99 USD.

Considering how you are getting only 25 patches, I would suggest that you get the COSRX ones instead because those are 24 for $5.00 CAD at Mikaela Beauty. For a 10% discount code to Mikaela Beauty, click on the link here.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Overall this is a decent product but not really the best bang for your buck.
