SEOUL, South Korea, , Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Korean skincare brand CLERIVY,
founded by Guhada Co., Ltd., announced its U.S. debut on Amazon.com today with two
cosmetic patches now available: the Hydrocolloid Pimple Patch and the Microdart 
Spot Patch.

Its third product, the Microdart Acne Patch, will be available in October 2026. 
It is listed with the FDA as an OTC monograph drug for acne and contains 2% salicylic
acid as its sole active ingredient. Its full Drug Facts label has been public on
DailyMed since August 12, 2026.

CLERIVY’s U.S. distribution and marketing are led by Kglowing, Guhada’s global accelerator
platform, which has supported the overseas expansion of approximately 30 K-beauty
brands.

**Two Patch Formats for Different Stages**

The Microdart Spot Patch is designed for the kind of bump you can feel before you
can see it. Its water-soluble microdarts contain 7% niacinamide, 3% tranexamic acid
and 2.7% sodium ascorbyl phosphate, a vitamin C derivative used as a cosmetic antioxidant.
The formula also includes less than 0.5% salicylic acid for cosmetic purposes only.
Niacinamide and tranexamic acid are familiar ingredients in tone-focused skincare,
while panthenol and madecassoside round out the formula as skin-conditioning agents.
CLERIVY describes the formula as a three-part cosmetic approach: early spot care,
skin conditioning and targeted care for the look of post-blemish marks.

Once a blemish reaches the surface, the Hydrocolloid Pimple Patch covers the area.
It contains less than 0.5% salicylic acid for cosmetic purposes. Salicylic acid 
is a beta hydroxy acid commonly used in exfoliating skincare. Phytosphingosine, 
a lipid naturally found in the skin, is included with panthenol and allantoin as
skin-conditioning ingredients. The patch can stay in place for four to eight hours;
if it turns opaque sooner, that is the visual cue to gently remove it.

Both products launching today are cosmetics, not drugs. All three patches are manufactured
in South Korea: Y&K Biocos produces the Hydrocolloid Pimple Patch, while Raphas 
Co., Ltd. manufactures the Microdart Spot Patch and the upcoming OTC product. Raphas
Co., Ltd. states that its Droplet Extension (DEN) process uses the formulation’s
viscosity and air to form microneedles at room temperature.

**Tested for Sensitive and Acne-Prone Skin**

The Hydrocolloid Pimple Patch has completed human clinical testing at Cutis Biomedical
Research Center Co., Ltd., where it was rated suitable for sensitive skin and non-
comedogenic for acne-prone skin. In a one-week use test involving 22 participants
with acne-prone skin, instrumental measurements recorded a statistically significant
14.5% decrease in a* values, an indicator of the look of redness (p<0.001). In a
self-assessment survey, participants with sensitive skin rated overall usability
4.4 out of 5 on average, with all respondents reporting a positive experience.

**Drug Facts Published Ahead of October Release**

and "Acne Treatment" as the purpose. Under "Uses," the label states it is intended"
for the treatment of acne" and that it "penetrates pores to eliminate most acne 
blemishes."

Its 13 inactive ingredients include niacinamide, tranexamic acid and phytosphingosine
HCl. The package lists 6% niacinamide, 3% tranexamic acid and 2% panthenol.

two cosmetic patches are now available on Amazon.com. The hydrocolloid patch is 
offered in 10 mm and 12 mm sizes in 30-, 72- and 96-count boxes. The cosmetic microdart
