Handcrafted Hydrocolloid Blemish Patches

Produced as a hydrocolloid patch, this handcrafted formula combines hydrocolloid with blueberry fruit extract, tea tree extract, and vitamin A. Blemishes are small spots on the skin, such as pimples, and each patch is placed over a single blemish.

The patch contains tea tree extract, which is commonly used to clear blemishes.

Skin care engages touch at each step of a routine, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift surface oils, debris, and bacteria from the skin (Aiello & Larson, 2002). Moisturizing products such as creams, lotions, and balms add emollients that soften the skin surface and help hold in hydration. Serums, masks, and treatments are applied to specific areas of the face, and the pressure of application adds to the sensation. Applying any of these products activates C‑tactile afferents, the nerve fibers that process pleasant touch (Löken et al., 2009; McGlone et al., 2014). Slow, massage‑like pressure is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010; Field, 2015), and warmth and absorption add to the sensation as the product meets the skin.

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.
