Hydro-Stars

Okay first off.... I REALLY wanted to like these. They are so stinkin cute! But in actual use I found they did nothing for my acne and are an absolute pain to remove from the plastic they are wedged between. I do love the branding and packaging.... as someone in marketing i can appreciate that. i just do not think this product delivers. I would recommend alternatives. See my other reviews for more!

I’m a big fan of starface. Acne is not fun, but the stars are so cute it makes using them feel like a treat. They definitely make a difference but you can’t expect a miracle. Using overnight they tak down the inflammation and improve pimples. They don’t work for cystic / under the skin spots. Definitely most effective as a preventative measure before the spot has fully manifested. Mine always stay on all night and never have any issues.

Are these the best pimple patches i have ever used? No. Are they the cutest? Yes! I do love the little carry case it comes with which is super handy for travelling. Will i repurchase? Unsure at this stage as i feel there are other options that are better and cheaper.

As a person who picks her acne I love starface patches. They are cute, convenient, and always there for me when I'm suffering from a breakout. I've felt more confident throughout the day when wearing them. Lots of gen Z girlies are wearing them and it's really cute to see teens not afraid of acne like back in the day.

Super cute but they don’t really stick that well or even pull out the oil like other face patches. But the packaging is just so super cute!! I love that you can refill the cute packaging as well. So that’s good!

While they look cute and stick well, I didn’t see much improvement in my pimples. The active layer is very thin, and they don’t pull out as much as others I’ve tried. Definitely more of a novelty than an effective solution—especially for the price.

These are really fun and the packaging is super cute and fun but there are cheaper and better alternatives now. K beauty has so many patches like these that do the same thing. I love the idea and how they started this trend but I wouldn’t repurchase.

I think this brand’s skincare is best suited for preteens and teenagers with mild acne. Anyone with more serious problems will likely not have a bad reaction, but you certainly won’t get results. The patches are ok, I still purchase them mostly for the look. They definitely stick, are non-irritating, and very cute! Just not super effective.

I am a fan of Starface and have been keeping them in my cabinet for a while now. The branding and packaging are adorable, and they work pretty well on smaller pimples to quickly calm inflammation. That said, they’re not the most powerful zit fighters out there. If you’re dealing with stubborn or big cystic acne, these aren't for you. I also wish they adhered to your skin more strongly. I will wake up in the morning and sometimes find stars in my sheets.

These are really pretty pimple patches that come in fun shapes and colors. I think this is good when you want to cover up a pimple when going out but do not want to make it worse by hiding it under makeup.

Love that they absolutely made it okay to embrace that all skin is not perfect. I cannot help but smile when I see teens wearing these stickers. I am in my 40's and I put them on and remind myself my skin is my skin. I just wish they weren't so expensive.

I personally am not a fan of the star pimple patches I personally like the hero ones, but I know these are cheaper, but I feel like they don’t work as good as other ones on the market. I’ll just say though is I know a lot of people do wear them and I do see them a lot more often than pimple patches

You can't beat Starface for simple, cute pimple patches. They have the cutest designs on the market and they do a great job of destigmatizing acne and making pimple care fun. Of course, the products do what they say they're going to do.

In a fan of the reusable pimple patch holder + patches. They don’t pull as much as some patches do, but I love the case and fun designs. I also enjoy the chapstick. Very fun and bright branding, catch’s your eye on the shelf.

I wanted to love these, but have mixed feelings. I do LOVE the little box with a mirror. The container is the best part. I think it's a cute and smart way to store the patches, keep them clean, and the mirror for applying wherever. They also do very cute collabs. The box is worth purchasing. The patches themselves however, are not the best. Personally, I don't really desire to have a big colorful patch on my face, but if you're into that, then cute. I just don't think these work very well compared to other patches in a similar price range. I've tried the classic yellow and black stars and they did not suck the gunk out of my skin well. I did not find them affective at improving blemishes, which is the point. I saw they just came out with a clear patch, so fingers crossed maybe those work better.

I think the products are cute but don't really do much for the skin. The regular patches are too small and buying the bigger ones are not worth it. Personally i think people only use it cause it looks nice.I say just get hydrocolloid patches from the pharmacy.
