Sensitive skin, marks and gentle removal
Why a light mark appears, how to take a patch off gently, and when to give skin a rest.
The short answer
A light mark after you take a patch off is normal and goes away within a few minutes. Peel slowly, start with moisturizer only, and give your skin a night off if it looks pink.
Why marks happen
The patch holds the skin smooth all night, so when it comes off you may see a faint outline where it sat. That’s normal, and it goes away within a few minutes.
How to take it off gently
- Peel from one corner, low and slow, keeping the patch close to the skin.
- Support the skin next to the patch with your other hand.
- Don’t pull it off quickly, especially if your skin is on the dry side.
- Put it back on its sheet if you plan to wear it again.
If your skin is sensitive
- Try one patch on a small area first.
- Wear it over moisturizer only before adding actives underneath.
- Skip any skin that is broken, sunburned or irritated.
- If the skin looks pink, give it a night off.
- Stop using it if irritation doesn’t settle, and check with a dermatologist.
