Uncover, a local Nairobi brand that harnesses Korean beauty to serve, protect, and nourish women’s skin, has launched I Am Spotless Pimple Patches a new, game-changing product to solve a major issue Kenyan women face with their skin.
Infused with wound-healing agent hydrocolloid, breakout-fighter salicylic acid, and calming centella asiatica flowering plant, the I Am Spotless Pimple Patches will address a dire need among Kenyan women: an easy, safe, and affordable method to heal their pimples.
Jade Oyateru, Uncover Founding Team, says, "Our team worked really hard to launch our first product into the market in under 6 months. We cinched supply partnerships with 6 of East Africa’s largest pharmacy, wellness, and cosmetic chains, sold 3,000 units of our first product in the first month."
A survey of almost 1,000 participants found that post acne hyperpigmentation (discoloration that results from harsh pimple removal techniques) is one of the biggest pain points for Kenyan women.
While aggressive acne treatments are tempting, they can cause discoloration and even inflammation in their wake.
I Am Spotless Pimple Patches— Uncover’s super power stickers that safely heal, flatten and protect ripened pimples with their gunk-sucking technology.
To celebrate the new product on Nov. 24th 2021, Uncover hosted a Kenya launch event in Nairobi, attended by top influencers, personalities, beauty & skin experts and some of the brand’s loyal consumers, to debut the patches and the growing brand.
It was a thrilling experience with the brand’s growing beauty committee joining in the exclusive introduction of a new product. The event also hosted important conversations about the evolving beauty scene in Kenya.
A pack contains 18 transparent patches with two sizes that work on all skin tones and skin types.
The patches work best on ripened pimples and start to work immediately. We suggest leaving them on for 4-8hours or replacing them as needed (depending on the amount of debris in the skin), allowing you to go on about your day.
The I Am Spotless Pimple patches will retail at KSH 899/= and is available for purchase on Uncovers website www.uncoverskincare.co and other health and beauty stores like True Cosmetics, Kasha, Super Cosmetics, Goodlife, Jumia and other well known chains in Kenya.
