Smoothies Variety Wrinkle Patches for Face Overnight - Facial Patches for Forehead, Elevens, Crows Feet and more, 160 Facial Adhesives per Box - Face Tape, Made in the USA

Better than Frownies!! These are so much easier to apply, they stay on all night and don't fall off while you sleep. Frownies have a weird smell and you have to use multiple, plus it leaves your skin feeling dry. These leave your skin feeling hydrated have no smell and are comfortable, serving the same purpose. Keeps your skin taught all night long instead of worsening wrinkles in your sleep, plus they are clear and clean so could be worn during the day easier. Will not buy Frownies again.

A much more subtle alternative to frownies. I cover my forehead with these before bed, similarly to the viral product that we've probably all seen, instead of just between my brows on my 11’s. If my bangs are styled, you can’t even see them, because they’re clear and matte. I have sensitive skin, but have had no reaction at all. In the morning, my forehead is visibly smoother, and any slight residue washes right off when I wash my face in the morning. They’re definitely helping me learn to relax my forehead muscles too. Much cheaper and faster than botox, without the risk of muscular atrophy. Absolutely recommend this product.

I had been using the big brand that has been around for over a century for several months and I was noticing it was helpful. But I was curious if there was something a little bit cheaper or even more effective so I gave these a try. I ordered the smaller triangles, but I wanted the larger ones. At the time, they would arrive too late as I was out of my other ones, so I had to order the smaller ones. I figured they would hold me over, but the bigger ones seem like they'd work better since I'm really targeting my entire forehead which is long and big. After using these for several nights, I could tell they were effective, but like I suspected, I need the larger triangles to deal with the forehead otherwise there are too many I need to overlap and there are a lot of lines that stay there for a long time on your face especially if you are not extremely hydrated or seasoned in applying these. For me, one of the small ones works perfectly for the 11's, each crow feet area, and each smile lines. I had 2 deep lip cracks which are wrinkles on one side of my lip, and I had to cut these in half and experiment numerous times for me to get it over my lip right without my lip doing something weird and trying to flip over or the skin would bulge. I figured out I sort of had to connect it with the smile line ones, but I don't like sleeping in them especially if I sweat or drool or something as the area feels damp under. I work from home and don't leave the house alot, so it's better to wear the lip one during the day. I can even drink water with it and it stays on, but like I said that took some tweaking on getting a thin strip. And some nights I feel like it just won't line up right, but that's because my lip situation is complicated and not typical which is from pursing my lips my whole life which I didn't notice until the last few years that I do when I'm focused or stressed which is 100% of the time it seems lol The small ones definitely don't work for my forehead when I need the entire area covered, and I am curious about the larger size but I am not ready to reorder yet. There were too many creases from all of them. I don't think these sizes work for that when your wrinkles cover the entire forehead. A few small ones would be fine, but that wasn't my situation. I am extremely sensitive and usually react or am allergic to most things on the planet, and I didn't react to these. I did the same thing as I did with the other patches and did my entire facial routine and applied moisturizer, then I would apply the patches after at least 20 minutes or longer once everything was absorbed by my skin. An hour was most ideal. Taking them off the next day was no problem and didn't rip my skin. There was one day I had a reaction similar to another reviewer where it was all red and rashy looking underneath the triangle between my 11's as it was the only one I applied the night before. I specifically remembered applying my moisturizer which had hyaluronic acid in it, and I was curious what would happen if I put this on before it's soaked in. Well, there you go, that created the reaction. It was just pooled under the strip, and it irritated everything. So, that tells me people with reactions may not have waited until all their facial products have fully absorbed (if they didn't have an allergic reaction). This was discerning because it looked like a red UFO between my eyebrows, so I put that pink Cal. rash lotion on with a little bit of this other natural rash cream a couple times a day, and later that night it finally dissipated. I can imagine if I didn't put the right product on this like that pink rash cream that it could go on for days and days because rashes are usually hard to get rid of. This actually looked like a mild burn too.Anyway, I do prefer the brand that has been around the longest for the forehead because of how tight it gets and how it works for my specific issues covering my entire forehead so I need a cast. But these are definitely better looking and you don't have to feel like a freak since they are pretty clear. I can even wear them under my hats in the winter when I go in public. Heck, I wore the paper ones under my hat and I'm sure people were wondering what was on my forehead, but I really don't care because I have been determined to feel prettier. I wore the other brand for several months and it took me about a month of wearing them every day to really notice a difference with wrinkle taping. After a month the wrinkles would stay away longer and even my 8-year-old son noticed one day in the car that he said the patches are working which he just said out of the blue. I'm pretty sure I cried lol They say you want to do wrinkle taping every night for a month or so and then you can just do it a few days a week or just see how your body responds. It helps you retrain the muscles and to get used to not moving them. The days I'm extra animated, are the days I really noticed the wrinkles coming. If I can just stay home and relaxed with minimal talking which is actually very healthy to the soul, things look better.Now, as I was using these a while I decided to splurge and get some injections. The spot in between my 11's looked like it was going to do something weird after a few days which had happened to me before where there was a really deep crease in it worse than normal. It's like somebody took their pointer and thumb finger and pinch that area and it stuck that way. This has happened before with other injections if I'm squinting alot right after I get them as it's like the injections want to settle in that position and it's like I caused it myself. My eyes have been so blurry lately and I'm constantly squinting and I noticed it happening again which literally happened the last time with my squinting and having a period of really blurry eyes when that botched situation happened. The last time I did this they actually had to fix it because I looked crazy. So, since it was several days in and getting worse I decided to put the small triangle on that exact spot before bed and the next day it all went back to normal. Phew, because it is a pain to have to go back in and get something tweaked. I am going to use these as often as possible to see how much longer I can stretch out these injections. I have not gotten them done in 3 years until right now as I am writing about this because of cost and that my body just releases it after less than 2 months and it just was getting too expensive. My intentions are by using these regularly that will help me extend them and help train my face more especially when it starts to wear off. So, I feel fortunate to be able to test these in both situations. I didn't expect to even go back to injections, but one day I just had it with not feeling pretty or youthful and I put it on credit lol, and I'm manifesting that all coming back plus some because I'm worth it. Anyway, I like these, and excited to see if the bigger triangles work better, especially because you can cut them too so you wouldn't need a set of these smaller ones in addition for other areas.**Update** wrinkle taping is extending my injections by many months. It's amazing. It's been 6 months since I had them and I still look great. Maybe it's all wore off and I just look younger without them. I have no idea.

All I can think of is how many of us are searching for anything that will make us look younger...erase wrinkles or , at the very least soft them a bit. We will try some of the most expensive creams, serums and contraptions to firm, hydrate, brighten, tighten, lift. There are moisturizers, serums, eye treatments, peels, exfoliators, masks, plumpers, neck and decollete wonder treatments. Well, I have spent so much money looking for the Holy Grail. Oh my gosh, if there were a true treatment that would restore us to our 20's, 30's or even 40's, it would be all over the news! Again, I fall victim to the search. This product made sense. I figured the worst thing would be if it did nothing at all. The pieces vary in sizes for different parts of the face. All you do is place it on clean skin and wait for the sticker to smooth your wrinkles. The product does do something. It gives you a very minor wrinkle plumping effect for a brief period of time. I found the biggest difference in my lip lines. I did one side only. I did see a noticeable difference. Alas, it did not last longer than a half hour for me. If you are going to take a few pictures of yourself, perhaps use this if you have no plans to photo shop. Other than that, I am nonplussed. I read reviews and count on them to help me to make good choices in my purchases. If you find my review helpful, please click yes for me.
