Review: Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patch

By Herugliness
Hello! ~ This is a review of the Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patch. For a long time I thought Lioele made decorative cosmetics only, so I was quite surprised to see that they offer skin care products too, and among these a line specifically for troubled skin. The Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patch comes in a box with 5 separately packed sheets á 12 patches each, so 60 patches in total.I like Lioele's packing design a lot: The packing of theLioele A.C Control Trouble Patch is very simple, yet still elegant thanks to Lioele's beautiful silver holographic emblem. It's easy to open and reclosable.
The Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patch contains Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid to treat troubled skin. Each patch is transparent and self-adhesive. You are supposed to put a patch on a pimple on cleaned and dry skin, without using any kind of cream, as the patches don't stick well to oily skin. Then you leave it on your skin for 8-12 hours, preferable overnight. The patches are a bit hard to remove from the sheet in my opinion and I have to be very careful not to bend them. Once a piece of them is bend it seems impossible for me to make it stick to my skin. If I get the patch on my skin evenly, it stays firmly on my skin all night.
Both Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid are usually effective ways to treat spots. It has shown to be one of the very few things that work on spots for me, however, I tend not to use it often, because these ingredients, and Tea Tree Oil in particular, tend to dry out, almost "burn" my skin a lot. The Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patches contain Grape Seed extract which is supposed to prevent this from happening. So, did this product work for me?No, not at all. I have tried these on every kind of pimples that exist: Blackheads, whiteheads,  papules, pustules, cysts - everything and the patches did not show any effect at all. I am surprised about this. One should think that, for example a red spot, woudl heal naturally over night, but nothing like this happened. All my spots looked exactly the same after using these for 2 nights in a row. I could not even notice any natural healing. I was even considering the option that I might have done something wrong while applying the patches, but there really isn't anything that can be done wrong with these, so my final conclusion just has to be that the Lioele A.C Control Trouble Patch are completely uselessI have read in some other peoples' reviews that they improved minor spots for them, but did not work on bigger ones, so maybe my spots are just to huge and resistant for them. So, even though this product might work for some people, it did not work for me and I cannot recommend it at all.
