Yay—let's recycle! Here’s a quick guide for when you've finished using all your products:
1. Make the products 'recycle ready' by rinsing it out and cleaning it. What if the product doesn't work for me? Give it to someone who might like to try it! That way, you will minimise wastage and give the product a second home. ♡♡
2. Get the DETAILS! Typically, most skin care packaging is recyclable in Australia, but what can and can’t be recycled depends on where you live. A quick Google search will reveal a recycling guideline based on your state / territory.
3. Can I put this in my recycling bin? If you've checked and the answer is 'yes', give these items a second life and put them in the recycling bin. If it's not, look into enterprises like TerraCycle, to help you properly recycle your beauty products. If the product is recycable through TerraCycle, it is FREE and all you have to do is gather your empty products together, print a recycling label and ship it out - that’s it! They’ll take care of the rest for you.
FYI, recycling plants uses numbers ranging from 1 to 7 to help sort all the materials. PETE stands for Polyethylene Terephthalate and PP stands for Polypropylene — these are both plastics. PAP represents paper / mixed paper / cardboard. See Earth Easy to learn more about your plastics.
That's it babes! Remember to love our earth; love our planet! #dontbetrashy

How long you wear a COSRX pimple patch generally depends on the size of the pimple. Bigger zits need larger and more frequent patch changes, others may need just the single. Remove the patch when it turns white (that's all the gunk it's sucked out...ew but satisfying) and keep changing and wearing until the wound has healed.
You can definitely use the COSRX pimple patch overnight, it won't fall off. Just ensure that you apply it on clean skin, after washing your face but BEFORE applying any products. After applying the patch, follow through with the rest of your routine.
COSRX acne patches work. Like, they seriously work a charm. There's a reason why this product is a cult hit, generated countless imitators and attracts 5-star ratings wherever its sold. The reviews don't lie!
COSRX acne patches are too good to be true. They're a Godsend on those large cyst-like pimples, helping to clear out impurities within and providing a protective layer on top to prevent re-infection or another whitehead emerging.
COSRX pimple patches work beautifully on popped pimples. Think of them like a zit bandaid. Have you ever let an open wound fester? It can get infected and sometimes the healing process can be delayed, resulting in a bigger wound or heavier scarring. That's the same with pimples, which, when popped, are essentially a wound. These patches help prevent outside bacteria reinfecting the pimple, encourage faster healing and even minimal scarring.
Make sure you put your COSRX pimple patches on BEFORE your moisturizer or anything on your skin. This way, it adheres properly to your skin and won't peel off.
