Forehead & Between Eyes Facial Patches

1. Prep Your Skin and Your Frownies

Start with a clean face. Apply your usual serums and moisturizers, then give them a minute to fully absorb before putting on your Frownies.

Tear the patches along the perforations to separate them into individual triangles. Lightly moisten the shiny side of each patch using Frownies Rose Water Hydrator, Frownies Calming Toner, or warm water. Use your fingertip to spread the moisture evenly.

Set the patches down (shiny side up) and give them up to 90 seconds to become tacky.

3. Smooth and Stick

With one hand, gently smooth out any lines on your forehead. With the other, press the patches onto clean, dry skin.

Overlap the patches to create a full mosaic across the forehead — between the brows, up toward the hairline, and toward the temples.

Press and hold for 15–20 seconds to help them adhere.

Pro tip: Many people find it easiest to start between the brows and work outward.

4. Wear, Remove, and Repeat

Wear your Frownies overnight or for at least 3 hours.

To remove, dampen the patches thoroughly with warm water so the adhesive softens. Lift gently from the edges or slide your fingers underneath as the water loosens the patch.

Prefer the shower? Leave them on and let the water and steam help lift them naturally.

Early workout? Lots of customers keep their Frownies on through a sweat session and let them come off on their own.

Use nightly to support smoother-looking skin, then as needed once you love your results.

Let’s get into the nitty gritty.

Frownies Facial Patches for the Forehead & Between the Eyes are paper patches designed to be worn overnight (or for at least three hours) as part of your nightly skincare routine. They’re made to hold the skin in a smooth, stay-put kind of way while you rest—like a little reminder to your face to relax already.

Frownies have been around since 1889—yes, really—and are made from paper and a water-activated adhesive. These patches don’t penetrate the skin or deliver active ingredients. Instead, they work on the surface, using gentle pressure to help you maintain smoother-looking skin over time with consistent use.

Every batch is third-party tested for safety. Our Facial Patches are HRIPT tested, meaning a dermatologist has evaluated them to be hypoallergenic, non-irritating, and suitable for sensitive skin.

If you’re using Frownies with your favorite skincare products, do a quick patch test on your wrist or forearm first—just to be sure your skin vibes with the combo.

Pro tip: The adhesive sticks to clean, dry skin and releases easily with water—no tugging, no drama. Think of it as your beauty sleep’s bestie—working all night long so your skin can sleep in.

Due to the simple nature of our ingredients and production process, slight variations in color, thickness, and texture are normal. Rest assured, each batch is tested for quality and efficacy to meet Frownies' standards prior to distribution.

Q: Do Frownies Facial Patches actually work?
A: Frownies are designed to help hold the skin in place while you sleep, so you can wake up to smoother-looking skin with consistent use. They don’t work like magic—they work like consistency. Thousands of before-and-afters say it best: it’s a vibe once you’re in the routine.

Q: How long do I need to wear them to see results?
A: Everyone’s skin is different, but many users say they see a noticeable difference in as little as one night. That said, the real magic happens with consistent use over time—think of it like skin training, not a one-night stand.

Q: Can I use Frownies with my skincare products?
A: Totally! Just make sure your skincare is fully absorbed before applying your patches. Oils and heavy serums can make it harder for the adhesive to stick, so we recommend keeping it light before patch time. For best results, try our Frownies skincare—specifically formulated to play nice with the patches and help you get the most out of your routine.

Q: What’s the best way to remove Frownies?
A: Water is your bestie here. Fully saturate the patch with warm water until it loosens and slides off—no ripping, no peeling, no stress. Take your time and treat your skin like the queen she is.

Q: Are Frownies safe for sensitive skin?
A: Yep! Our patches are HRIPT tested, which means a dermatologist has reviewed them to be hypoallergenic, non-irritating, and safe for sensitive skin. Always patch test first if you're trying something new, just to be safe.

Q: Do they help with 11 lines or just the forehead?
A: The “Forehead & Between the Eyes” patches are shaped to support both areas—including those stubborn “11s.” Apply with your brows relaxed, and let the patch gently hold things in place while you sleep.

Q: Are Frownies reusable?
A: No—each patch is designed for a single use only. And trust us, your skin is worth a fresh one.

Q: Can I use Frownies Facial Patches with skincare actives like retinol and exfoliating acids?
A: Skincare actives, including retinol and exfoliating acids, may increase the chance of skin sensitivity. For your safety, we discourage use of Frownies Facial Patches on irritated skin. As always, follow the directions provided with your skincare products and consult your licensed skincare professional if you have specific concerns about your individual skincare routine.
