Can You Put Pimple Patches Over Moisturizer?

Can You Put Pimple Patches Over Moisturizer?

If you're one of the millions of people dealing with acne, you've likely heard of the wonder that is pimple patches. These adhesive patches can help to reduce the size and redness of pimples overnight, making them a go-to solution for those who want to wake up to clearer skin. But what if you're also using moisturizer as part of your skincare routine? Can you still use pimple patches over moisturizer, or do you need to choose one or the other?

The answer is simple: you should not put pimple patches over moisturizer. Pimple patches work by drawing out the impurities from your pimple and absorbing excess oil from the surrounding area. If you apply them over moisturizer, the patch will not be able to adhere properly to your skin, and it will not be able to draw out the impurities effectively.

Instead, you should apply Fazit's Zit Zapper hydrocolloid pimple patch to dry, clean skin. That means you should cleanse your face before applying the patch, but do not apply any moisturizer to the area where the patch will go. The patch needs to adhere directly to the skin to be effective.

But what about the order of application? Do you put pimple patches on before or after moisturizer? The answer is simple: you should not apply pimple patches after your moisturizer. Leave the areas of your face dry that you want to treat with a pimple patch. After, you may moisturize the rest of your face the patch is not covering. This will ensure that your skin is properly moisturized and that the patch adheres properly to your skin.

One popular brand of pimple patches is Fazit's Zit Zapper Acne Patches. These patches are made with hydrocolloid technology and can help to reduce the size and redness of pimples overnight. They are designed to be easy to apply and remove, and they can be worn throughout the day or night.
