Nua Pimple Patch Review – It Legit Works!
In this article – I’ll be sharing my complete review and experience with Nua Pimple Patch. What worked, what I liked, what did not work — everything, including before and after images.
While browsing for acne patches over at Blinkit, none of them caught my eye except for one, the Nua pimple patch. I don’t know why it just felt like that Nua pimple patch might actually work and be different from all the other ones listed on the platform, because amongst all the acne patches I have tried in the past, only a few worked!
Nua Pimple Patch Review in a Glance
5/5
Are the patches too thick?
Not at all. I feel they are appropriately sized as they aren’t super thin either. They are thick enough to stick and do the needful.
Does it hurt while taking the patch out?
Definitely not! I tested the patch on various locations on my face. 😹 And there wasn’t a single time when it pained to pull out the patch.
My Personal Favourites
Niharika X NykaaDid the patch fall off during the day?
Nope! It stayed throughout the day. I wore the patch after my morning shower and took it off in the evening and the patch stayed as it is.
I guess there was a reason I developed a few acne so that I could give these Nua acne patches a try and share my opinion on the blog. If you have been looking for Nua pimple patches review that too in detail in the world of AI, you are on the right page.

My Experience with Nua Pimple Patch
My Skin Type: Combination/oily in the summer season and dry in winter. Sensitive and acne-prone skin.
Packaging
It comes in a simple cardboard pouch. Super sleek and easy to store and carry.
Further inside, there is a single pouch carrying a sheet of 36 (12 large + 8 small) patches which are securely protected with a top layer sheet.
Fragrance
No fragrance
Appropriate thickness to do the job
Honestly, I was having 50-50 hopes. Either this was going to be another disappointment or it was going to be my new favourite and I am glad my money did not go waste.
I used the patch on bare skin after cleansing my face, i.e, prior to any serum or moisturizer.
First thing I notice was the thickness. The patch isn’t super thick and neither paper thin. It is somewhere in between and wasn’t giving an impression that I am wearing patch so it passed the test for me.
Sticks well and blurs the redness
Next, the patch was hazy enough to fade the redness. This was really important because a lot of use pimple patches when heading out and a good pimple patch has the capability to hide or blur the intensity and redness.
The third most important factor for me was how well it sticks especially after getting disappointed by Nykaa acne patches.
Nua pimple patch passed the stickiness test too for me. The patch stayed on throughout the day and throughout the night — intact! Without falling off or moving.
Now that the patches impressed me halfway through, it was time to see them in real action whether they actually help in treating the acne or not.
I wore the Nua pimple patch on 2-3 acne for about 5 hours. One of them was a real big one and other two were ready to pop-out.
Treated acne in single use 💯
After 5 to 6 hours, I took out the patches and could see the gunk on the patch. It legit pulled out all the oil and everything the acne had.
After experimenting over a week on different acne sizes and types, I concluded that the Nua pimple patch worked every single time. On the tiny ones, the patch pulled out the pus shrinking and treating the acne over single use. On the big ones, it reduced the size and redness and stopped it from growing bigger.
Controls the pain
I also noticed that it reduces the pain too on active painful red bumps. There were bumps on my chin and on my cheeks, which pained way too much, and the patch really helped in controlling the pain.
I like the overall concept of the acne patch. Once the patch is on, it acts as a barrier protecting from dust and from accidentally touching too.
I remember so many times unknowingly, I touched the painful acne, and it pained soo much at that very moment. Having the patch on changed those scenarios. It no longer triggers a sharp pain when the patch is on.
Stopped the big one from growing further
Depending on the stage and size of the acne, it either stopped it from growing further or treated it in a single night. The big ones required 2 patches at least to dry them out.
I used these patches along with my serums, moisturizer, and sunscreens, and the patch stayed intact.

FAQs
What Do The Users on Reddit say?
There isn’t much talk about the Nua pimple patches but those who tried, mentioned in a post that they liked them. There is a lot of talk about the Beard hood patches and it seems like no one really liked them. 👀 Looks like I dodged a bullet. The one Brand that a lot of users recommended over Reddit was, Priveda. That’s new to me and I think I’ll be trying that next.
Pimple Patches That Really Worked For Me
The patches that actually worked were from Dr.Belmeur, though I am not sure if they are still the same as it’s been a really long time and from Derma Angel. Apart from this, all other acne patches were simply a joke including Nykaa patches and Spruce. And now, happy to say that Nua patches are added to this list too. 😌
The reason I am so skeptical when it comes to pimple patches is because literally every other Brand has one and the majority of them don’t work at all. They are just hazy stickers and nothing else.
Final thoughts – Absolutely Worth It!
From the effectiveness in treating the acne to acting as an aesthetic tool to hide the redness, the Nua patch was a complete 10/10. The patch did not result in any rashes or itching. It sticks well, blurs the redness, shrinks the acne, and that too in one use.
