Tips for frownies

1) The glue on the back of these Frownies is quite strong. As such, I recommend that you only wear these on nights when you plan on taking a shower the next morning. This is because the steam from the shower will help in dissolving the glue and therefore removing the Frownie. Otherwise, if you are just washing your face say over the sink the next morning, you'll have to spend at least a few minutes wetting the Frownie, waiting a bit, trying to pull it away from your face a bit, wetting it some more, etc. Unless you are the type of person who feels comfortable YANKING the Frownie and glue from your face (which to me would be too rough on your skin), it is going to take a bit of work to soften the Frownie/glue. Therefore, iIt's much much easier to just let the steam from the shower do most of the work. What I find helps is….before you go into the shower, wet the Frownie well, and try and pull up at least some of the edges of the Frownie. This in turn will help the steam/water from the shower get under the edges of the Frownie to help dissolve the glue….
2) As far as applying the Frownie before bed, I find that a smaller piece of the patch is better, so I will often cut them down a bit in size. The reason for this is….I usually apply the Frownie to either the area immediately over my eyebrow (where I have a deep horizontal line) or else to the area between my two eyebrows. Either way, I find the patches are too big and end up pulling too big an area of my skin together due to the sheer strength of the glue. The Frownie's directions really aren't good at explaining this or giving you any 'tips' but….because this glue is so strong, and the patches somewhat big (at least for my face), if you use the entire patch it can actually seem to create MORE 'wrinkles' because the strong glue can pull on your skin, PARTICULARLY along the edges of the Frownies patch. In addition, if you DO wet the entire surface area of the patch and then apply it to your face, the EDGES of the patch (which are very distinct and somewhat 'sharp'), can often dig INTO your skin, and when you remove the patch, you are left with 'dents' on your face from the edges of the patch. Therefore, when I wet the back of the patch, I only wet the center section of it….NOT the edges. I then place the patch on my face and press on the center of the patch only, leaving the edges of the patch remaining dry and therefore not stuck to my face. Depending on the size of the patch and where on my face I placed it, I might then take small scissors and cut off the edges of the patch if they are protruding too much.

They do work, but I find that I have to be very consistent with them to keep the results. I'm not sure I want to wear stickers to bed for the rest of my life. I agree with another reviewer that it might be best for leading up to a big event. They're not a very sexy accessory to wear to bed. Also, my skin is a little sensitive, so I have to be careful taking them off (soak the pad thoroughly for a while) or I get a red patch where it was. Overall, though, I'd recommend them, because they do work.

This is the worst thing I have ever used. They say to simply wet it to remove....not so. I didn't think that I would ever get them removed.

      Not worth the money and very expensive. I went and bought the brown shipping tape for packages and cut it down. It is the same thing and much cheaper. But even doing this does not help the wrinkles or sagging skin!

            I use this between my eyes every night and sleep with it on. I used to have deep grooves from frowning and sleeping on my side but with Frownies, I don't have to worry about that anymore. They have almost disappeared. I bought lots of boxes to ensure that I never run out of Frownies.

                Frownies are such a simple concept, but they do help reduce the appearance of wrinkles if used consistently. That's the KEY...you must use consistently to see a difference. I use them for my "11" wrinkle between the eyebrows and wear them every night....sometimes during the day if I don't have to go out. I see a difference...but it's sometimes difficult to wear them all of the time.

                    These do reduce the depth of brow creases between the eyes, of course you have to use them consistently to get the best result. I have only been using them for a couple of weeks but I see that they work. One word of caution - if you are older & have skin that holds onto creases & lines from pressure (like a pillow case wrinkle) - make sure you remove the used product early enough to allow time for your skin to recover. There may be little edge lines from the paper that appear once removed. It is also best to limit the amount of time you wear them - longer = more likely to wake up with those 'edge lines'. This product was created a long time ago & it seems the simple materials haven't changed either. They are brown craft paper, with what I believe to be the original formula for postage sealing tape glue on one side. You can still buy the sealing tape & if you've smelled the wet tape it smells like the Frownies. The simple combination of materials creates a pulling effect on skin once the glue dries & stiffens the paper which then basically holds the skin in position while you sleep, relaxing the muscles enough to decrease the appearance of the crease - ta da - you look a little better without Botox!

                      I bought about a year ago and only have used twice. They did help a little with wrinkle between eyes, but if pulled skin off when taken off and hurt.
