Packaging is a pain I spent not an insignificant amount of money on the combined pack and the post zit stickers, and several times have wasted expensive patches because of a design flaw in the packaging. These stickers are wired shut inside annoying plastic squares. You have to yank them open with your fingers, (which would be impossible for anyone who has issues with their hands) and frequently they fly out onto the floor, ruined and you have no choice but to throw them in the bin. It's additionally not great that you're left with a load of plastic tat after you've used one. The early zit sticker didn't work for the larger under the surface zits I had, I guess they were too stubborn. The goo getters were an interesting experience, and stopped me popping whiteheads myself. The post zit stickers did help fade marks, but it wasn't the great result I had read from others. The benefits to these are that they stop you picking and making zits worse. The cons are the expense, the ease of use and packaging.

Severe reaction resulting in GP visit Bought the ‘Face Map Hydro-Patch’ due to an explosion of stress spots all over my face. Never had issues with other spot stickers before and thought these would be good as they cover large areas rather than individual spots. Woke up next day, lots of gunk on patch, looked like job was done. Next day, blemishing where patches had been, but no pain, didn’t think much of it. Following day, swollen, itchy skin with clear solid lines of where the patches had been. Burning sensation. Had a severe reaction. Today I write this as I sit on the sofa with cold compresses covering my face and a prescription for Hydrocortisone for face cream. Having to cancel appointments and work this week due to how bad it is, so actually lost a lot of money and time getting this. Reviews on website are suspiciously all positive, should have been a red flag. Not been asked for feedback yet which is suspicious too. Basically, don’t do it and buy proper products elsewhere that are genuinely ok for your skin.

For body acne... no no For body acne - no impact (only tried body acne treatments from them as this is my main concern). Trial period lasted 4 months (this is pretty reasonable and generous). The combo I used was their BodyDouble. It really does seem all marketing, no impact for me.

Bad company Bad company. Missed off the free gift that was the reason I bought via this company, rather than a distributor, where I would get 20% off. Avoid & buy elsewhere.

Cleared cyst in 5 days! I've started getting cystic acne and decided to give the Killa patches a go after the last cycle left my skin so incredibly painful as the cysts were so swollen and deep. Even with using actives in my skincare (AHA, BHA, PHA and retinol) it took 2 months for those cysts to go. I've since tried these patches when I saw another cyst coming up and it has taken 5 days to clear the cyst and start the healing. I used 3 killa patches in the evening and then the goo getter in the day (they were free though, i think it's better buying Cosrx ones as they're cheaper and not so obvious on your skin). I know they're expensive, but knowing just how much pain I was in last time means I'd happily pay that again. Best bet is to order when there's a sale on.
