The rule is to pick a patch noticeably wider than the blemish, so the adhesive edge seals onto clear skin all the way around. A patch sized exactly to the spot sits on inflamed, uneven skin at its border and lifts within a few hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlacement matters too. Areas that move constantly — the sides of the nose, the chin, along the jaw — need a smaller patch that can sit flat rather than a large one that creases. Flat areas like the forehead and cheeks will happily hold the biggest size on the sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn mechanism, these work exactly as the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/cosrx-ac-collection-acne-patch-21g\"\u003eAC Collection Acne Patch\u003c\/a\u003e does: hydrocolloid absorbs fluid from an open blemish and keeps it covered while it heals. That means the same limitation applies — on a closed bump with no opening, there is nothing to absorb and the patch will not do much beyond stopping you from picking at it. Which, to be fair, is often the most valuable thing anyone can do for a spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003col\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStart with clean, completely dry skin.\u003c\/strong\u003e Moisturiser or oil under the patch will stop it sticking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChoose a size wider than the spot\u003c\/strong\u003e so the edges seal onto clear skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApply before serums and creams,\u003c\/strong\u003e directly to bare skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeave six hours or overnight,\u003c\/strong\u003e and swap for a fresh one if it goes fully white.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cosrx\"\u003eCOSRX range at EmartGCC\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between this and the AC Collection patch?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are hydrocolloid and work identically.
