Dr. Melaxin S-ZINC Ultra Thin Patches are transparent spot patches designed to care for emerging blemishes and areas prone to oil, impurities, and redness. They feature an ultra-thin thickness of about 0.013 mm to adhere closely to the skin surface and provide precise care for the blemish with an almost invisible appearance, making them easy to use during the day and even before applying makeup.

The patches are based on a blend of Salicylic Acid, Sulfur, Zinc PCA, Lactobionic Acid, and Citric Acid with soothing ingredients such as Panthenol, Centella, and Propolis, to help care for accumulated sebum, gently exfoliate dead skin cells, soothe the appearance of the blemish, and protect the area from touching and friction. The pack contains 72 patches with a 12 mm diameter, suitable for targeted use on blemish areas.

Main Features and Benefits:

• Precise targeted care for blemishes: Each patch directly covers the targeted area to help keep care focused on the blemish without spreading product over the rest of the face.
• Helps reduce the appearance of oils around the blemish: Supports care for excess sebum and shine in areas prone to impurities.

• Soothes the appearance of emerging blemishes: Helps the area look calmer, less red, and less uncomfortable with proper use.
• Protects the blemish from repeated touching: Forms a thin layer that reduces direct finger friction and helps avoid picking or squeezing the blemish.
• Ultra-thin at 0.013 mm: Designed to sit close to the skin surface, making it less visible than traditional thicker patches.
• Suitable for use under makeup: The thin edges help achieve a smoother appearance when applying makeup over the patch.
• Almost invisible texture: Suitable for daytime use for those who want targeted blemish care without a noticeable patch look.
• Helps reduce picking at the skin: Covering the area reduces the urge to touch the blemish, helping avoid increased irritation and post-blemish marks caused by squeezing.

How to Use:

1. Clean the targeted area and dry it completely before applying the patch.
2. Apply the patch before using toner, serum, cream, or oils on the area to ensure the best adhesion.
3. Pull the green protective layer backward to reveal the patch.
4. Place the patch directly over the blemish and press gently until it adheres well.
5. Remove the outer layer printed with the brand logo after securing the patch, leaving the ultra-thin film on the skin.
6. You can continue applying skincare products or makeup over it after making sure it is secure.
7. Replace the patch with a new one when needed, and do not reuse the same patch.

Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• The Beauty Time team recommends applying the patch on completely clean and dry skin, because creams, oils, and serums underneath may reduce its ability to adhere.
• Use it in the early stage of a blemish when you feel a bump or the start of a spot, as it is mainly designed for targeted care of emerging blemishes.
• Avoid squeezing the blemish before applying the patch, because picking at it may increase redness, irritation, and post-blemish marks.
• After securing the patch, gently run your finger over the edges to help make it level with the skin surface before applying makeup.
• When using makeup, apply it over the patch using light tapping instead of strong rubbing so the edges do not move.
• If your skin is very oily, wipe the area and dry it well before application to ensure better hold throughout the day.
• Do not apply a strong blemish treatment or exfoliating acid under the patch at the same time, as the patch itself contains active ingredients for blemish care.
• If you use retinol or exfoliating acids on the entire face, avoid placing them directly under the patch to reduce the possibility of localized dryness or irritation.
• These patches are not mainly designed to absorb fluids like hydrocolloid patches; therefore, if the blemish is open or filled with discharge, a hydrocolloid patch may be more suitable for that stage.
• Do not try to remove the thin film forcefully with your nails; lift the edge gently to avoid pulling the skin or irritating it.
• If you have more than one blemish close together, use a separate patch for each area instead of trying to cover a large area with one patch.
• For the best benefit, combine targeted care with a simple routine that includes gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and sunscreen instead of over-drying and over-exfoliating.
