What It Is

Blemishes can appear unexpectedly and leave behind stubborn marks that take time to fade. Understanding how to treat both active breakouts and post-blemish discolouration is key to achieving clearer skin.

Our Truly Targeted Blemish-Clearing Solution is an invisible liquid blemish patch with 2% Salicylic Acid, specifically formulated to deliver visible results on blemishes and post-blemish marks. Unlike traditional pimple patches, our liquid patch technology creates a breathable, invisible seal that delivers concentrated actives — 2% Salicylic Acid, 4% Niacinamide and 0.2% Licorice Root — directly to the blemish. This targeted formula addresses the causes of breakouts while calming and fading post-blemish discolouration, and layers seamlessly with sunscreen and under makeup for discreet, all-day wear.

NIACINAMIDE

Niacinamide, the form of Vitamin B3 we use within our formulas, is known to help visibly brighten skin. When used in topical skincare formulas, Niacinamide can also help balance skin's surface oil.

LICORICE ROOT

Extracted from a perennial herb native to Europe, Asia and the Middle East, Licorice Root Extract has been used medicinally since 500 BC. An effective complement to a routine focused on skin brightening, clarity and evenness, Licorice Root is known for its soothing and calming properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DOES A LIQUID BLEMISH PATCH WORK?

A liquid blemish patch works by forming a breathable, invisible seal over the blemish that delivers concentrated active ingredients directly to the spot. Our Truly Targeted Blemish-Clearing Solution uses this liquid patch technology to keep 2% Salicylic Acid, 4% Niacinamide and 0.2% Licorice Root in close contact with the blemish, targeting the cause of breakouts while protecting the area from external aggressors. Unlike traditional hydrocolloid pimple patches, our liquid formula dries invisibly and layers under makeup and sunscreen.

CAN I WEAR THIS BLEMISH PATCH UNDER MAKEUP?

Yes, our liquid blemish patch is specifically designed to layer seamlessly under makeup and sunscreen. Once the formula has fully dried, you can apply your usual sunscreen, foundation, and other products on top. The invisible, breathable seal means no one will know you're treating a blemish — making it ideal for discreet daytime spot treatment.

HOW QUICKLY DOES THIS PIMPLE PATCH SHOW RESULTS?

You may see noticeable improvement in as little as 2 hours, with visible calming of pimple redness. Within 24 hours, pimple size is typically visibly reduced. For post-blemish marks and discolouration, continued use over 4 weeks may help to visibly correct and fade marks, thanks to the combined action of Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide and Licorice Root.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LIQUID BLEMISH PATCH AND A HYDROCOLLOID PIMPLE PATCH?

A hydrocolloid pimple patch is a physical sticker that absorbs fluid from surface-level blemishes, while our liquid blemish patch is a paint-on formula that delivers active ingredients — including 2% Salicylic Acid — directly to the blemish. Our liquid patch dries invisibly, creates a breathable protective seal, and works on both active blemishes and post-blemish marks, making it a more versatile acne spot treatment.

WHAT SKIN TYPES IS THIS BLEMISH PATCH SUITABLE FOR?

Our Truly Targeted Blemish-Clearing Solution is formulated for acne-prone skin types, including oily and combination skin. The targeted, one-drop application means you're treating only the blemish itself, so surrounding skin isn't over-treated. If you're looking for a broader blemish-prevention routine, we recommend pairing it with our Expertly Clear Blemish-Treating & Preventing Lotion to help strengthen the skin's protective barrier.

CAN I USE THIS BLEMISH PATCH DAY AND NIGHT?

Yes, you can apply our liquid blemish patch both morning and evening. During the day, simply allow the formula to fully dry before applying sunscreen and makeup on top. At night, apply it as the last step in your skincare routine. For a complete blemish-targeting routine, discover our full range of products for skin blemishes.
