Spot Cover Patch 22 Patches

SKIN1004 Spot Cover Patch: your invisible helper for skin impurities

Do you know that feeling when a spot appears out of nowhere and you would love to cover it up straight away? Or the temptation to pick at it, which often only makes the appearance worse? The SKIN1004 Spot Cover Patch is your discreet and hygienic SOS helper that specifically covers and protects skin impurities. These clever hydrocolloid patches are not only almost invisible but also create a pleasantly moist environment for the skin by absorbing excess fluid and protecting the affected area from external influences and careless touching. This way the skin can calm down visibly faster without leaving unsightly marks. With 22 patches in different sizes you are ready for any situation.

The power of the ingredients: how the patch works

The effect of the SKIN1004 Spot Cover Patches is based on an intelligent combination of hydrocolloid materials that work together to protect your impurities:

• Polyisobutene: Forms the flexible, water-repellent and skin-friendly base of the patch. It provides secure hold on the skin and protects the affected area from water and external influences while creating a pleasantly moist environment.
• Cellulose Gum & Pectin: These two ingredients are the stars of the absorptive matrix. They are hydrocolloids that swell on contact with fluid (e.g. from a spot) and form a gel-like substance. This effectively draws the fluid out of the spot and keeps the skin pleasantly moist, which can soften the appearance of unevenness.
• Hydrogenated Styrene/Methylstyrene/Indene Copolymer: This polymer provides the necessary structure and flexibility of the patch. It helps the patch stay thin but robust and adapt well to the skin without falling off when speaking or with facial expressions.

Together these components form an effective barrier that protects the area from external influences and keeps you from unconsciously touching or squeezing it.

How to add the patches to your routine

Using the SKIN1004 Spot Cover Patches is straightforward and effective:

1. Preparation: Cleanse your face thoroughly and dry the affected area completely. The patch adheres best to dry, oil-free skin.
2. Application: Choose a patch that is slightly larger than the impurity. Peel it carefully off the film and stick it directly onto the spot. Press it gently so it adheres well.
3. Let it work: Leave the patch on the skin for at least 6-10 hours, ideally overnight. You will see the patch turn opaque and whitish – this is a sign that it has absorbed the fluid.
4. Removal: Peel the patch off carefully. Cleanse the area again if needed and continue with your usual care routine.

Pro tip: You can also wear the thin patch during the day under make-up to discreetly conceal the impurity and protect it at the same time.

Complete your routine for clear and calm skin

To get the most out of the patches and to soften the appearance of new impurities, we recommend integrating the Spot Cover Patches into a comprehensive skincare routine aimed at a calm skin feeling and a supported protective barrier:

• Step 1 (cleansing): Madagascar Centella Ampoule Foam - Start your routine with this gentle yet effective foam cleanser that frees the skin of impurities without drying it out or irritating it – the perfect base for the following care.
• Step 2 (toner): Madagaskar Probio-Cica Essence Toner - This essence-like toner gives the skin a calm feeling and supports the protective barrier. It prepares the skin optimally for the absorption of further care products and helps make redness look less visible.
• Step 3 (ampoule/serum): Madagascar Centella Ampoule (55ml) - After cleansing and toner, this highly concentrated ampoule is ideal to give the skin a comprehensively calm feeling, support the regeneration of the skin surface and soften the appearance of impurities while supporting the protective barrier.

Still questions? We have the answers!

Can I apply make-up over the patch?

Yes, absolutely! The SKIN1004 Spot Cover Patches are thin and transparent enough to be worn discreetly under make-up. They not only help cover the impurity but also conceal it visually and protect it from further irritation by cosmetics.

How long should I leave the patch on the skin?

We recommend leaving the patch on the skin for at least 6 to 10 hours. You know it is time to remove it when it visibly discolours (turns whitish) and swells, as this indicates that it has absorbed fluid. Many prefer overnight use for intensive coverage.

What kind of impurities are the patches best suited for?

These patches are ideal for spots with a visible head or those in an early phase that are "ripe". They help absorb the fluid, protect against external influences and prevent unconscious touching or squeezing, which can soften the appearance of unevenness.
