Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions
How does Kiehl's Truly Targeted Blemish Solution work?
This transparent liquid pimple patch incorporates active ingredients, including salicylic acid and niacinamide, to reduce the visibility of blemishes and enhance the appearance of clearer skin.
When to use Kiehl's liquid pimple patch?

Is it better to pop a pimple or use a pimple patch?

Can the Liquid Pimple Patch be used alongside other blemish treatments?
It's generally safe to use this invisible liquid pimple patch alongside other acne treatments, but it's recommended to avoid using multiple active ingredients simultaneously to prevent potential irritation or over-drying of the skin. Consulting with a skincare professional for further concerns.
Is it safe to use this liquid pimple patch on a daily basis?
Kiehl's Liquid Pimple Patch can be incorporated into a daily skincare routine. Consistently using it as directed can help maximise its effectiveness in reducing pimple size, redness, and post-blemish marks.
