Starface pioneered the statement pimple patch back in 2019. Since then, the brand behind the unmistakable yellow star has been named one of our favorite pimple patches and expanded its lineup with a multitude of unmissable colors, including pinks, purples, blues, rainbow, and this solid black — which could read as goth but strikes me as quite a chic way to cover a blemish (insofar as a pimple patch can be chic, though it’s certainly far more sophisticated than sunshine yellow or Snoopy). Plus, when you think about the fact that even “invisible” patches are usually glaringly obvious (you’re not fooling anyone), confidently taking ownership of that zit with a visible black star is actually a very mature move. So grow up and get yourself some black-star pimple patches. A 90-count pack is 26 percent off right now.
