Know exactly what you are putting on your skin
Most spot patches in this category never name their active ingredient. You end up finding out how strong one is from how your skin reacts to it, which is a bad way to find out.
This one is on record. The manufacturer registered it with the FDA as an over-the-counter drug, and that label lists a single active ingredient: salicylic acid, 25%. The purpose recorded against it is wart remover, for common and plantar warts. The oils the marketing talks about — tea tree, calendula, cica, castor and argan — sit on the same label as inactive ingredients.
Read this before you open the box
If a spot is new, changing in shape or colour, growing, itching, bleeding, crusting, or has an uneven or irregular border — have a doctor look at it before you put anything on it at all. Covering something like that and waiting is how a skin cancer diagnosis gets delayed, and that is the one outcome here you cannot take back. A GP or a pharmacist can tell you what it is in a couple of minutes.
The label's own do-not-use list is short and specific. Not on irritated skin, or on any area that is infected or reddened. Not on moles or birthmarks. Not on warts with hair growing from them, and not on warts on the face or on mucous membranes.
Worth saying plainly, because the carton and a lot of listings for this product suggest otherwise: the registered label does not cover use on the face.
It is an acid plaster, and it behaves like one
25% salicylic acid is a genuine keratolytic strength, not a cosmetic level. Some stinging where the patch sits is an ordinary reaction to it. Skin around the patch going raw, sore or weeping is not — take it off, stop, and speak to a pharmacist if it does not settle.
Keep it to the spot rather than the skin around it, wear one at a time, and try it somewhere inconspicuous first if you already know your skin reacts to things. Keep the pack out of reach of children, and ask a doctor before using it on one.
What is in the box
- 288 patches on peel-off sheets, in two circular sizes
- Active ingredient: salicylic acid 25%
- Also on the label, as inactive: tea tree oil, calendula, cica oil, castor oil, argan oil
- Patch sheet: 2.32 x 3.46 in
- Box: 3.77 x 2.55 x 0.47 in
They are pale, not clear
Worth knowing before it arrives, because plenty of listings for this product describe it as transparent and it is not. The patches are matte and opaque in a pale off-white. On most skin a worn one reads as a small light dot rather than a dressing — easy to miss at conversational distance, visible if someone is looking for it. The smaller size is about the size of a lentil; the larger is closer to a shirt button.
How the manufacturer says to use them
- Wash the area and dry it thoroughly. The adhesive will not hold on damp or oily skin.
- Pick the size that covers the spot with a little margin, and peel it off the sheet.
- Press it on and leave it.
- Take it off after 24 hours, and put a fresh one on.
What this page is not going to tell you
That it will get rid of a skin tag. Skin tags are not what the registered label covers — the indication on it is common and plantar warts. Any page selling this as a fast skin-tag fix, the carton it ships in included, has gone past what the manufacturer put its name to.
Also not here: a number of days, a before-and-after photograph, or a testimonial from someone whose tag fell off. If a skin tag is the actual problem, a doctor or nurse can take it off in a single appointment and confirm that is what it is while they are looking. That is a better answer than a patch, and it is worth saying even on the page selling the patch.
Frequently asked questions
Will this get rid of a skin tag?
This page is not going to tell you it will. The registered label for this product covers common and plantar warts, not skin tags. If a skin tag is the problem, start with a doctor or a pharmacist — both to have it dealt with properly and to confirm that is what it is.
Can I use it on my face?
No. The label's do-not-use list includes warts on the face and on mucous membranes. Listings that say otherwise are contradicting the manufacturer's own label.
Can I use it on a mole?
No. The label rules out moles and birthmarks. And a mole that is changing needs a doctor, not a patch.
Does it sting?
It can. It is a 25% acid plaster, and mild stinging where it sits is an ordinary reaction. Raw, broken or spreading redness is not — take it off.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
The marketing for this product calls it gentle. The label says do not use on irritated skin. Take the stricter of the two, and try it somewhere inconspicuous first.
How many do I get?
288 patches across two sizes. On the label's routine — one patch per spot, changed daily — that is a long supply.
Is it waterproof?
Nothing from the manufacturer documents that, so this page will not claim it. Assume it needs clean dry skin to hold, and that a long soak will lift it.
Can children use it?
Keep the pack out of reach of children, and ask a doctor before using it on one.
Sold as it is labelled
That is the whole of it. A 25% salicylic acid plaster, 288 of them in two sizes, with the manufacturer's stated purpose and its do-not-use list printed above rather than buried. If that is what you came for, it is here. If you are not certain what the spot is, please have it looked at first.
