Test: Mighty Patch by Hero Cosmetics

The packaging is minimal and informative, with a resealable pouch that keeps the patches hygienic and easy to take on the go. Inside are 36 clear, round patches in two sizes. They are easy to peel off and apply, and the directions are simple: apply to clean, dry skin, wear for 6 to 8 hours (or overnight), and remove.

Initial thoughts:

  • Sterile and discreet
  • Comfortable for overnight wear
  • Promises visible results in a single use
