Frownies Corners of Eyes & Mouth Wrinkle Patches, 144 Count

I've been using Frownies on and off for many years, and I have to say—they really do work! I originally used them years ago, then stopped for some reason. Now I'm back to using them, this time more for my corners of the mouth and still for my forehead, and it made me wonder why I ever quit. With consistent use, they really do help train the facial muscles and soften expression lines. It's amazing to see the difference they make. I've always used warm water to activate the adhesive, and it works perfectly. In the past, I wore them overnight, although sometimes they'd become uncomfortable as they dried and I'd end up removing them during the night. These days, I wear them for about three hours, and that works great for me. The only thing I'd love to see improved is the packaging. I wish the patches came pre-cut and ready to use instead of having to tear them apart. It's not difficult, but I usually tear them all apart in one sitting so they're ready whenever I need them. The tiny pieces left over from tearing though can be a little messy and inconvenient. That small inconvenience certainly doesn't outweigh the results. Frownies have earned a permanent place in my skincare routine again, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a non-invasive way to help reduce the appearance of expression lines.

These really are horrible. Despite prepping my skin, wetting, and applying them exactly as directed, they either peeled up at the edges and eventually came off, or poked into the surrounding skin enough that I wound up removing them in my sleep because they were so irritating. I did not use any kind of cream or serum on my skin prior to use. To add insult to injury, the adhesive smells putrid. Even after removing them, my skin smelled terrible until I scrubbed the area where the patch was. It’s a promising concept, and I like that no harmful adhesives are used, but these need modifications before I’d try them again. I only used three, so I’m sad to be dumping a nearly full box in the garbage.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have heard alot of good things about this product. It works great. People commented about the smell, but I didn't really notice it too much and it didn't bother me. I put it on at night and the next morning it is smooth. It doesn't last all day and have only been using it for a few weeks, so we will see how it goes. Some didn't always stick, and sometimes I do get bothered using it every night. I think the reason they didn't stick was because I didn't wait long enough between moisturizing and putting them on. Effectiveness: Wrinkles gone in the morning, but doesn't last all day. I am using consistently hoping for more smooth skin.

I’m going real with this review because I wish I had known what I learned. If you’re on the fence - I used these for almost a year. They definitely work if you use them consistently. But you also have to put patches on your face that you wear often, often. I chose ultimately that the price and upkeep wasn’t for me. I also didn’t want my young children seeing me constantly putting things on my face that I needed to explain. That’s just me. If you want to help your lines these will help. But you will also be paying for them and wearing them constantly. I chose not to. I love the idea, I loved the results. I’ve stopped using them for about 3 months now, my between the eyebrows line is slightly more noticeable. If your goal is to help those lines and you don’t mind the cost or time, totally do it. They’re pregnancy and breastfeeding safe, and they do work. But it’s a forever thing, not a quick fix.

Frownies facial patches, do a decent job with continued use of helping the appearance of fine lines. 144 patches really are a great value for the price. There is a little learning curve with applying them and I found a great rosewater spray makes it easier. The smell at first as a little different, but you get used to it. These patches are brown craft color paper and they come in multiple sizes to make everything fit across your forehead and they last a decent amount of time..

Not sure why all the hate. They don’t smell any worse than a postage stamp did back when you had to lick them, these are basically postage stamps. And if you remember having to lick stamps, then you’re probably using Frownies. You need to use these every night to see results. It’s a commitment. If you don’t want to do that, get Botox. I currently get Dysport and started using Frownies for two reasons 1. A friend I trust began using them with great results 2. Covid hit and I couldn’t see my injector. Frownies helped me stretch my Dysport results until I could get back in. Now I use them to stretch out my appts or when I’m trying to save money. I don’t get the eyebrow lift I get from Dysport/botox but it helps reduce my forehead wrinkles and 11’s if I do the full Wonder Woman method. I do my nightly routine, let my products sink into my skin about 10 min per the Frownies instructions. Then I wet my finger a little with water and slide it over my already torn out Frownie and wait for it to curl up before applying. After my forehead is covered, I use Trader Joe’s rose water spray over the whole thing and pat it down. You don’t need Frownies rose water spray. They peel off much easier in the morning with product underneath than going in dry. I’ve tried going in without product and peeling off the next day hurts. I’ve also tried putting on frownies (just a few, not a full crown), immediately after face product and letting the product be wet enough to act as water to activate the glue. It’s worked fine too. You just have to figure what works for you and if this is worth it to you. Most of the time, honestly, it’s not worth it to me and I’d rather just get Dysport. But when money is tight, it’s worth the nightly commitment. Every other night works too if I’m alternating a retinoid product. Do not use it the same night as a retinoid. Do one or the other or risk peeling your skin off. Also didn’t know people were reusing their peeled off mask crown thing for a second use. I might try that!!

I’ve been using Frownies facial patches for years. When I consistently wear these patches on my laugh lines and eleven crease I notice positive smoothed out wrinkles in the morning.. I used to save time and PRE tear the patches by pulling the corners apart on the dotted line once I opened the box. So they are ready for me to use..Usually I use Frownies facial patches at night while I sleep. The patches adhered to my laugh lines don’t bother me.I saw or read an interview that actress Renne Russo had good results using frownies patches and she was right. I have been happy with these facial patches and I will probably continue to use them. I like to wet my finger well with really warm water, Spread my wet warm finger on the adhesive side of the patch and apply the patch to my laugh crease by gently patting the wet adhesive patch into place,after I’ve showered ,dried and moisturized my face, before bedtime.I usually have great success in getting the patches to stick completely on my laugh lines and eleven crease by using really warm water on my finger method. When I wake up the next day I tear them on patches off like a band-aid and rinse off the remaining dry adhesive from my skin and I might apply a quick layer of moisturizer to my skin so I can take my time go to my kitchen and enjoy my first cup of coffee. Then when I’m done with coffee I’ll shower for the day and or wash my face,?towel dry and apply moisturizer to my face . If I wear makeup using Frownies at night wont interfere with my next day makeup application. Frownies are easy for me to use. I’ve developed my own routine that works for me. I like the packaging and they have always arrived quickly and convenient through Amazon.

I tried these as an alternative to Botox for fine lines on my forehead and in between my brows. I tried this version and the other shape that is available by this company for at least three months and did use them nightly. The product was difficult to apply as I could not fully moisturize my face the way I prefer to before applying the product. If I used too much moisturizer, the pieces of paper would not stick to my forehead. The product was essentially craft paper that was sticky on one side and it did not smell good. The edges or corners tended to resist sticking to my face regardless of how long I held them to my face. I would wear this overnight and would wake up in the morning with slight improvements on my fine lines. The improvements would not last, and the lines would be present again by the end of the day. There was no general improvement in the final lines of my face over time through the three month period. I’m looking into other options, but this one was not it.

Worked very well.

It was not good at all. the patches were all stuck to each other and it looked like a very old product which was not very well stored. We have bought it before from other sites and always had a good product. this was very bad.

Non fanno miracoli ma prevengono e attenuano le rughe. Vedrete linee tratteggiate che separano il cerotto in 4. Toglietene solo uno e lasciate gli altri 3 insieme. Alternate: una notte con cerotto singolo e una con cerotto a tre. Il cerotto a tre forma una specie di grande V, la ci punta va in mezzo alle sopracciglia (mia figlia dice che le ricorda la forma di un Chihuahua :). Prima di mettere i cerotti dovete tendere la pelle al massimo. Poi incollate bagnando la colla e rimanete in posizione premendo sul centro e poi sui margini e sugli angoli e ripetete, finché il cerotto non è ben incollato e la pelle non si sposta. La mattina, quando lo toglierete, avrete dei segni. Mettete una crema estremamente emolliente (io metto la Vea), dopo una mezz'ora non avrete più segni. Cercate di non aggrottare la fronte durante il giorno e tendete i muscoli temporali (vedi ginnastica facciale). A fine serata, soprattutto se usate il fondotinta, le rughe ricompaiono, ma nel tempo c'è un miglioramento più duraturo. Se avete una serata, usatelo per TRE ore prima di uscire.

Love this and seems to be original

great service and good product
