Carpe Lotion vs. Skin Boss Pimple Patch: Which Works Best?

Carpe Lotion vs. Skin Boss Pimple Patch: Which Works Best?

In search of options outside of face creams to address rashes on stubborn butts or body breakouts? This review takes a look at two solid options: a lotion based upon an antiperspirant and a hydrocolloid pimple patch, and you can make an informed decision about what you might find useful.  

What Is Carpe Lotion? 

Carpe Lotion is a dermatologist-recommended, sweat-controlling lotion made to address hyperhidrosis. The formulas (including the Face Lotion variation) contain ingredients such as witch hazel, aloe, niacinamide, silica, and jojoba esters that absorb moisture, reduce shine, and keep skin dry without being too harsh. 

The reviews indicated that the lotion dries quickly and that it is non-greasy. It can provide noticeable improvement in as little as four weeks. While sensitive skin users, as much as possible, may be able to use the lotion, patch testing is always wise, as users can accidentally apply the lotion to the unintended location. 

What Is the Skin Boss Butt Acne Pimple Patch?

The Peach Patch is an extra-large hydrocolloid pimple patch specially designed for thicker, high-friction areas, like the butt, back, and thighs. It provides a combination of lactic acid, arnica, and calendula to bring healing and anti-inflammatory properties while quickly absorbing impurities. Designed to stay on, even when moving around or while sleeping, you can expect results in about 24 hours.

Which Should You Choose?

  • Looking for all-over oil and sweat control, especially for places like the face, hands, feet, or body folds? Get Carpe Lotion for controlling sweat more widely and shining more moderately.

  • Are you dealing with stubborn body breakouts, especially in hard-to-treat areas like the butt or thighs? Skin Boss Pimple Patch is a great way to bring healing ingredients directly to the spot with rapid results.

  • If you want to take a double-dip approach, you can use Carpe Lotion for overall dryness and apply the Peach Patch when you have individual breakouts.

How to Get the Most from Your Products

Carpe Lotion: After cleansing your skin, make sure to pat it dry and apply a thin layer. Allow the lotion to dry before layering with cosmetics or other products. Use it once in the morning and once at night, and you should notice good results. 

Peach Patch: Clean the area, and pat dry before sticking the patch down. Press the patch on the skin for 5 seconds to allow it to "stick" to your skin. Leave it on overnight or for 6-8 hours, then carefully pull it off before cleansing the area. 

In Summary

Both Carpe Lotion and Skin Boss Pimple Patch serve important purposes. On one hand, Carpe's lotion is best at controlling sweat and oil production over wide areas of skin. On the other hand, Skin Boss Pimple Patch provides quick patch treatment for problematic body acne. Choose between lotion for everyday moisture control and patches for specific trouble spots...or use both for full-spectrum treatment! 

Let SkinBoss help boost your confidence with visible results from your skin care routine, whether you're sweating, shining, or blemishing.
