Who wants to get rid of their forehead wrinkles and 11’s lines? That’s kinda what skincare is all about, really—protecting your skin and preventing signs of aging. And wrinkles are a natural part of life! It means you’ve lived, you’re expressive, and you’ve seen the sun. There’s nothing wrong with that… However, it can be discouraging to see those wrinkles pop up.
Luckily, we’ve found an incredible alternative to Botox (although, if you want and can afford Botox, definitely go for it). They’re called Frownies. These Frownies patches are low-tech, but work miracles! You stick them on your forehead and between your eyes at night. Simple as that.
Ok, but let’s dig into it. How do these patches do their job?

Turns out, you get a lot of skin damage in your sleep. From weird facial expressions (no judgement) to pressing your face into your pillow, your skin can get a lot of folds just from those unconscious 8 hours. I can testify that it is, sadly, true. So, Frownies hold your face in place. It’s like Botox, but just for the night! By holding your skin in place, you won’t get those deep lines between your eyes or on your forehead.
The patches are made with natural weighted craft paper, which may sound basic, but it’s actually perfect for allowing your skin to breathe and maintain its normal restoration at night. The adhesive is a corn-based adhesive (read: not silicone!) to prevent irritation or allergic reactions. Who knew that such basic ingredients, when creatively combined, would have such an impact on our skincare?

Still don’t believe me? Well, firstly, you should. And, secondly, check out these reviews from Amazon:
“After using them 3-4 times a week for a month, my frown line is about 75% gone. When I start to notice it coming back, I put on my frownies for a few hours or over night and it is much improved.”
“I started wearing these overnight between my eyes and poof they are gone in the morning. I guess I was frowning in my sleep without knowing it? Whatever the reason, it looks like I got Botox. I am impressed- they have earned a lifetime customer.”
“Within 7 days of nighttime use, the lines between my eyes and forehead were gone. I tested to see how long it would take them to come back, and without using them at night, it took about 4 days for the wrinkles to become prominent again. I believe this is an excellent alternative to botox as it helps prevent the facial expressions during sleep.”
For only $20, you can get the effects of Botox without losing your facial expressions. It’s the best of both worlds… And it’s cheap! Order a box of 144 patches for $20 on Amazon. You can thank me later.
