Welly Face Savers ($15)

Community star Alison Brie says these Welly Face Saver patches “never leave her medicine cabinet.”

“These things are incredible,” she previously explained to us. “I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about them. You put them over blemishes at night (or all day, for at least six hours), and they suck all the bad stuff out—you can even see it on the patch. They’re especially great if you’ve popped a pimple and you don’t want to keep messing with it and making it worse, but you’re not sure if you got everything out.”
