Guide Picks - Top 5 Medicated Overnight Treatments
When daily treatments aren't enough, or when you want to get rid of a blemish quickly, overnight (or spot) treatments can be
effective additions to your acne fighting arsenal. These products deliver a concentrated dose of acne killing active ingredients,
be they natural or medicated, directly to existing or emerging blemishes. You put these products directly on troubled areas
and leave them on anywhere between 30 minutes to all night long. They work quickly to seal the effected area and give it a mega
dose of treatment. These products are very concentrated and should be used as spot treatments only. You can use them as soon as you
feel a zit coming on by applying the product directly on the blemish. For this purpose, medicated and all natural products are
equally effective. Essential oils are also effective spot treatments. Take a look at our top 5 picks for medicated overnight
acne blasters.
1) Acne Dry Spot
This night time treatment will noticeably shrink existing blemishes while you sleep. Just dab it on
effected areas before bed and wake up to clearer skin. Intended to treat existing blemishes, this product is not a preventative
solution and should not be applied to unaffected areas. When you see or feel a zit coming on, just grab this little bottle and dab it on. The zits won't know what hit them!
2) Biore Blemish Bomb
Another overnight treatment, this product works like a acne patch. It goes on as a liquid but dries to form a protective seal
around your breakouts. While sealed up, the active ingredients in the "bomb" go to work shrinking the blemish. In the morning
you peel away the patch to reveal a much smaller zit. After only 2 nights all but the most stubborn blemishes will disappear.

These patches should not be worn overnight, 30-45 minutes is ample time for the medicine to take effect. This spot
treatment is listed here because it is not suitable for daily wear. An excellent cure for sudden blemishes or persistent and
stubborn acne.
5) Clean & Clear Overnight Acne Patches
Tiny patches that work to help control breakouts by directing maximum strength acne medicine straight to the pimple. They work
like mini band-aids, you simply place the medicated disk right on top of the blemish you want to eliminate. Leave the patch on
overnight and wake up to a noticeably smaller blemish. After a few nights of use, even the most stubborn zits will be gone.
The unique acne fighting formula is in a soothing base of aloe and vitamin E to treat pimples while minimizing skin irritation.
