THIS THING IS AMAZING. I don't know how I managed to live without these acne patches! They work so well in draining pimples, therefore shortening healing time (and the pain!) and works well with cystic acne too. I'd stick one on at night as soon as I feel a pimple brewing, and by the morning when I wake up, the pimple would either have come to a head, decreased drastically in size or flattened out! Would always have these at hand since I go through them way too quickly.
