"The hydro-stars you know, plus salicylic acid for spots that need a little more help."
Our take

$12.99 Price at Starface, checked Oct 2026.

The short answer

Starface's hydro-star + salicylic acid patches combine hydrocolloid with salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid known to dissolve dead skin cells. It's a 32-pack made to refill Starface's Big Blue compact. It's worth it for spots that need more than a basic patch.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it: Two well-known ingredients in one sticker, with the same stay-put hold. The star shape doubles as a reminder not to pick.
Skip it if: Your skin is very sensitive to acids.
The catch: Starface recommends limiting use to 1 to 3 times a week, so these aren't for daily spot coverage.
