ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch

ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch

For the blemishes that a regular patch can't reach. The ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch from ANUA combines a standard hydrocolloid spot patch with 200+ dissolving microdarts loaded with a triple acid complex (Glycolic Acid + Lactic Acid + Salicylic Acid + Gluconolactone), Succinic Acid, Zinc Lactate, and Madecassoside. Press the patch over a blemish for 10 seconds, and the microdarts dissolve into the skin, delivering actives directly at the depth of the developing blemish — not just at the surface. A 0.3mm ultra-thin hydrocolloid base adheres invisibly for day or night wear, turning white when fully saturated to signal when to remove.

Fragrance-free, paraben-free, silicone-free, fungal acne safe, cruelty-free.

Size: 12 patches per pack

Key benefits

• Reaches deep, developing blemishes — 200+ microdarts dissolve into the skin to deliver actives below the surface
• Triple acid complex: Glycolic Acid + Lactic Acid (AHA), Salicylic Acid (BHA), Gluconolactone (PHA) — exfoliation and pore-clearing at multiple depths
• Targets bacteria and excess sebum — Succinic Acid + Zinc Lactate
• Soothes and supports healing — Madecassoside + Centella Asiatica Extract to calm and minimize post-blemish marks
• Ultra-thin 0.3mm hydrocolloid — invisible, wears under makeup, turns white when done
• Fragrance-free, paraben-free, silicone-free — fungal acne safe

How to use

Cleanse and completely dry the target area before applying the ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch — any moisture or serum on the skin will prevent the microdarts from penetrating and the hydrocolloid from sealing. Apply directly over the blemish and press firmly for 10 seconds — this activates the microdarts and drives them into the skin to dissolve. Leave on for a minimum of 4 hours; overnight wear recommended. Remove when the patch turns white or after extended wear. Do not apply to open, broken, or actively weeping blemishes — for developing, under-skin blemishes only.

Why we love it

Standard hydrocolloid patches are genuinely useful — but they work only on blemishes that have already surfaced. The deep, painful, under-the-skin lumps that build for days before they emerge are exactly what conventional patches can't reach. The ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch was designed for those. The 200+ microdarts are loaded with the triple acid complex and pressed into the skin with 10 seconds of firm pressure — they dissolve on contact with the skin's moisture and release the actives at depth, where the developing blemish actually is. Salicylic Acid is oil-soluble, so it penetrates into the sebaceous follicle to dissolve the sebum plug from the inside. Glycolic Acid exfoliates within the follicle. Succinic Acid targets the bacteria driving the breakout and helps normalize excess oil production. Zinc Lactate reduces the redness and swelling around the blemish. And Madecassoside — the most potent active from Centella Asiatica — supports collagen repair at the blemish site to minimize the post-blemish mark after the patch does its work. The hydrocolloid then protects the surface, absorbs impurities, and keeps you from touching or picking — the four-way approach (deep actives + surface protection + antimicrobial + healing) in one invisible patch. At BestSkincareUSA.com, the ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch is our top blemish patch recommendation from ANUA for anyone dealing with deep, under-surface blemishes.

Key ingredients

• 200+ dissolving microdarts — Made from a water-soluble material loaded with the patch's active ingredients. Pressed into the skin for 10 seconds, they pierce the surface and dissolve as they contact skin moisture — releasing actives at the depth of the developing blemish rather than only at the surface.
• Triple acid complex (Glycolic Acid + Lactic Acid + Salicylic Acid + Gluconolactone) — Four acids targeting different aspects of blemish chemistry: Salicylic Acid penetrates into the oily pore to dissolve the sebum plug; Glycolic Acid exfoliates within the follicle; Lactic Acid provides gentler exfoliation support; Gluconolactone works at the surface level to protect barrier integrity around the blemish.
• Succinic Acid — A naturally occurring acid from fermentation with documented antimicrobial activity against acne-causing bacteria, and sebum-normalizing properties that help prevent the excess oil production feeding new breakouts.
• Zinc Lactate — Zinc delivered in a bioavailable form directly to the blemish site, reducing redness, swelling, and the oil production that drives breakouts — one of skincare's most effective blemish-calming minerals.
• Madecassoside + Centella Asiatica Extract — Madecassoside is the most potent active from Centella Asiatica, supporting collagen repair and healing at the blemish site to minimize post-blemish marks. Centella Asiatica Extract adds additional soothing and calming support.
• Sodium Hyaluronate — Keeps the skin beneath the patch balanced and hydrated during extended wear so the barrier doesn't dry out.

Pro tips and pairings

The most important rule: completely dry skin before applying the ANUA Triple Acid Spot Care Microdart Patch — apply over bare cleansed skin, not over toner or serum. Press firmly for the full 10 seconds — the pressure is what activates the microdarts. For best results, apply overnight and remove in the morning. Apply the ANUA Niacinamide 10 TXA 4 Serum over the surrounding area (not the patch) for brightening support on any post-blemish pigmentation. Pairs naturally with the ANUA Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam as the cleansing step before application. Explore more from ANUA: Shop ANUA
