Anyone who struggles with acne will know how difficult it can be to try and get rid of a breakout.
Having acne can have a huge negative impact on your mental health as well as your appearance, so any quick fixes to get rid of spots are ideal - and one product from Amazon is said to make them go away 'overnight'.
The Dots for Spots Acne Patches are currently the number one top rated beauty product on Amazon, receiving thousands of five-star reviews from happy shoppers who have used them to help banish acne.
The patches come in a pack of 24, and are made from vegan and cruelty-free ingredients, Wales Online reports.
They contain hydrocolloid, which creates a moist environment and can help to heal the skin from scars. You can use them on your face or body by putting a patch on top of a spot when it appears.
A barrier is then formed between the spot and the outside environment thanks to the sticky surface, and the hydrocolloid gets to work to extract pus from within the spot.
It also acts as a preventative tool for people who tend to pick or scratch their spots - which can make them worse as the bacteria is able to spread more easily.
For the best results, the brand recommends wearing them for a minimum of six hours or overnight. They are ready to be taken off once the translucent centre has turned opaque white.
The patches don't contain any "hidden ingredients" and are free from fragrance, alcohol, paraben and phthalate, according to Amazon.
Shoppers have been raving about the acne patches and out of 37,000 reviews, 65 percent of them are five-star ones.
