There are many lotions and potions designed to help remove pesky pimples – but one product in particular is being dubbed a ‘miracle worker’.
The Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch is from Korea and has been designed specifically to pull out puss from pimples.
They’re $5 for 24 patches, come in a range of sizes to match different sized pimples and reduce blemishes overnight.

It has been designed to treat acne like an infected wound and is made up of cellulose, polymers, adhesives and liquid paraffin.
The patches adhere to the skin and treat breakouts by eliminating infection and bacteria.
According to reviews online they only work after the pimple has been popped because they need to absorb the fluid from the spot.

This prevents the pimple from refilling with oil and hanging around for too long.
It is recommended that people wash and dry the targeted area and avoid applying any skin treatments or moisturisers between the patch and their skin.
When people remove the patch in the morning they’ve found that it white puss has transferred to it as it absorbs the blemish.
YouTuber Allie Glines used the patches on her pimples before she popped them but said they still managed to draw out puss and flatten the blemishes.

‘I’ve been using the patches for about two months now and I can say for sure that it gets rid of pimples faster than anything I’ve ever tried – pimple gels, creams, and oils are no match for it,’ the woman behind Project Vanity said.
‘These are amazing little miracle workers to have around when you get those dreaded hormonal pimples,’ another reviewer said.
Of course like most beauty products on the market, not everyone is won over with it.
‘The patches are amazing but I’ve noticed I can only put them on a pimple once it’s already developed,’ one person said on Soko Glam.
‘And it’s also left a hole in place of one of my pimples after peeling the sticker, which could have caused infection and it left a scar.’
