Amazon's 26p pimple patches that are 'invisible' and 'heal blemishes overnight'
It's a skincare lover's nightmare when you wake up to find a mountainous spot has appeared on your face overnight. Thankfully, shoppers are raving about a set of pimple patches that come to the rescue every time and not only conceal the spot, making it almost invisible to see, but also treat the spot so that its appearance diminishes vastly in a number of hours.
A pack of 24 Dots for Spots patches cost £6.29 on Amazon - which amounts to 26p each. The patches work their magic by absorbing the gunk and impurities from your blemishes with the inclusion of ingredients like salicylic acid, green tea and hyaluronic acid in the hydrocolloid covering.
With the zit patches being translucent and ultra-thin, they blend in with your skin seamlessly, meaning you can go about your make-up routine as normal without irritating the pimple while the covering also acts as a barrier to prevent those who can't help but pick, touch or - worst of all -try to pop them.
The acne patches can transform spots overnight (Amazon)The recommended time to wear to Dots for Spots patches, to see the best results, is over six hours or over night and you'll know when the patch is ready to be removed as the see-through dot will turn a cloudy opaque white.
With over 39,000 reviews on Amazon, it's safe to say this spot-busting product is really popular, with a rating of 4.4 stars and over 25,000 five-star reviews alone that rave about the dots for being 'hands down the best spot patches EVER'.

One shopper explained: "I’ve used them on a few spots now and they work exactly as they say. I’m not sure of the science so I’ve put it down as magic but they work very well. Also, an added bonus is that they seem to stick through showers in my experience. I assumed there would fall of like any old plaster but it stayed on there and seemingly didn't even move!"
Another went as far as to say they were 'magic' after being unable to understand the science behind it. "I’ve used them on a few spots now and they work exactly as they say. I’m not sure of the science so I’ve put it down as magic but they work very well. Also, an added bonus is that they seem to stick through showers in my experience. I assumed there would fall of like any old plaster but it stayed on there and seemingly didn't even move!" they said.
A third remarked: "These are the best little dots I’ve ever had the great fortune to find. Anyone who suffers from the hormonal flare ups. These are brilliant within 24 hours redness gone 48 hours the little blighter has vanished. Thanks D4S [Dots for Spots] brilliant creation. Perfect for teenagers at that awkward time too."
For some shoppers, these patches didn't work quite as well as for others as they experienced them falling off or not working at all and simply leaving a red mark on their skin.
One wrote: "I brought these on the whim that they might make a difference to my acne but to be honest I'm not too sure about them. When placing them on I do find that they can slightly hide the appearance of the redness but not sure they work too well with reducing the spots themselves. I will continue to try in different places to see whether they work."
That being said, many people love pimple patches to cover up and heal their spots - including Millie Bobby Brown, who was spotted recently on the Drew Barrymore Show wearing a butterfly shaped pimple patch from her own brand Florence by Mills, which can be bought on Beauty Bay for £12.
Elsewhere, other patches loved by skincare fans include Starface's Hydro-Star Mini Pack, £5.99 from Superdrug, and the £6.39 Hero Mighty Pimple Patches from Boots, which are described as being "perfect for blemishes".
