great brand, useful, but expensive
Mighty Patch is among the best pimple patches I've tried, so I was eager to try this bigger strip. My chin has been a problem area for me since I was a pre-teen, but lately my nose has actually been the issue. I haven't had real breakouts, but have pores the size of a Manhattan apartment all over my nose that I just can't get fixed. So despite the fact that I don't often have much luck with patches getting anything other than a well-developed white head cleared, I put one of these sheets upside down from the chin direction on my nose for a night. It was surprisingly uncomfortable. Once I put a normal pimple patch on, I can't feel it and forget it's there until the light hits it right. But the big strip across my nose was a very noticeable feeling that I was anxious to take off. I resisted the urge, and fell asleep. In the morning I was pleasantly surprised! There were more white spots than I expected from just enlarged pores without any developed white heads. So despite the discomfort, I will use these patches when I'm frustrated with a larger swath of my face. I have cut this brand's dot patches in half many times for smaller zits, and think you could slice this big patch up into many smaller bits to get it all where you really want it, but I wouldn't count on being able to save any of it for later once you've unsealed the package. I'm always interested in how to use these more frugally, because they seem really pricey to me. I generally don't want to use one unless I'm really sure that it will work.
