In contrast to 100% hydrocolloid bandages or stickers, The Inkey Record’s addition of skincare substances work wonders to deal with the pimple from the within out. So do they stay as much as their promise? Jacqueline Kilikita, Refinery29’s Deputy Magnificence Director, was amongst one of many first to strive them. “My lavatory cupboard is a pimple patch graveyard — from squares to stars and circles, it’s crammed to bursting with packing containers of the little hydrocolloid bandages, loads of which declare to soak up pus and reduce indignant redness,” she says. “In my expertise, although, essentially the most they ever do is stop me from choosing and subsequently forming a scar. Most of the time, once I take away pimple patches, the breakout has crammed up once more and it’s like a endless cycle. That didn’t occur this time, and I’m satisfied it’s all right down to the salicylic acid.”
