Pimples in self-isolation? Is this patch effective, popular and, dare we say, trendy?

"I love acne!" said just about no one, ever. They mostly smell fear and show up at the most inopportune moments, say, right before a date or after a string of good days. No matter how much we love our acne cleansers and weekly charcoal face masks, sometimes we need something that will work directly on our pimple, like a spot treatment. To fight acne in the early stages, get acquainted with ZitSticka Killa Kit: a set of fashion portable acne spots who are here to save the day - and your face.

The founders of the brand gave me a Killa Kit, and somehow by chance on the same day my skin turned purple. The Killa Box contains eight individually wrapped Killa patches and Cleana tampons that can be used to wipe a pimple before application. What makes this acne patch different from others I have seen is that they contain mycodarts with ingredients that soothe your pimple. Within two hours of application, these darts distribute the ingredients (Hyaluronic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide, and Oligopeptide-76) into your pimple.

Initially, I was a little intimidated by the look of microdarts, and I won’t lie, I was afraid to press them into the skin. I found that it actually provided a strange satisfaction, but the best part was that I knew it wouldn't fall off my face in a matter of seconds. I went to work around the apartment, went to bed and woke up with an intact patch. In the morning, the pimple was not completely gone, but it did not become inflamed either. According to the brand, "The appearance of most pimples will lessen after six hours, but other cases will take longer, and in exceptionally stubborn cases, a follow-up application may be necessary." I am happy to report that my pimple has lived a very short life, but beware, you may need a second patch.
