I've spent much more on the name brand versions of these and these ones work just as well for so much less! They also offer a better variety of sizes. What a great find! I love these for those deeper painful zits that you can feel starting to form and for those blemishes that are hard to reach like around your ears. This works wonders! Just like the name brands, if you leave it on for too long or overnight, it can sometimes be pretty drying to that spot and leave a bit of a dry slightly scabby spot behind. But this is no different from the other brands. I think with how it works to extract the moisture and pus it's just bound to happen and you want to be careful with your timing. Still an incredible product.
For those that haven't used any version of this before, it's a little almost clear sticker that you put over a zit. Leave it for several hours, and the sticker slowly turns white as it pulls the pus and oil out of your blemish. Peel the sticker off at the end and you'll find a much less swollen blemish that looks like it's been days later, not just hours. It's pretty magical! No trauma to the skin from popping. No bleeding. Nothing like that. Just a bit of drying if you leave it too long like I mentioned above.
