Anytime I try and use a moisturizer with these, they won't stick. I try light moisturizer, holding frownies down for several seconds, etc. Any tips?

I ususally apply moisturizer first and let it absorb for approximately 20-30 minutes, then I apply the frownies. Or apply moisturizer and let it absorb then gently wipe the area, then apply frownies. I've tried it both ways and that usually helps.

I let my moisturizer absorb in a little bit first. Make sure you don't get the frownies too wet before putting them on. I've never had a problem with the 3-4 different moisturizers I use depending on which one is on sale.

Hi Amber, I couldn't get them to stay on even with a freshly washed face at bedtime. Found out its just kraft paper a anyway, its supposed to be spelled that way but it's made for crafts and comes in rolls

They recomend using their rose water,which does not work either!, i just threw them away and went back to using skin peels,which are very effective. I go to skinpeel.com.

Danielle and Monica are spot on. Try not to touch the gel pads as the oils on the hand do not help with the stickiness. I have dampened my finger and moistened the gel to clean them and rehydrate them. Have had no problem after doing that.

I always use along with moisturizer but I have dry skin. I usually mix a bit of Coola with my moisturizer then apply on my face.

I always used lots of lotion so the 85% wouldn't dry out my skin. Try a oil based lotion like emu oil. It may help.

Are you talking about the little skin colored bumbs under your eye? I've applied salicylic acid peel to these several times with no results. I just ordered the TCA peel and will try that also. Let me know if you discover anything and I'll do the same

Yes of course you can, I have always used water to apply the Frownies, and they stay on just fine. However, be careful not to wet them too much or they will not stick!

I have found the 10 X too strong to use on a daily basis. Try using a good moisturizer and then (after it has absorbed) applying a small amount of the Replenix. Try it this way and only use a couple of times a week.

The manufacturer says they make a line for the face; however, I chanced it and tried it on my face. He results were fantastic! Again, I suggest applying in the evening, and in the morning wash/rinse lightly and apply your regular moisturizer. I love he results and will continue to use the product year-round.

I wish I could be as positive as the 3 comments i read. I found them to be hot and clammy, and even tho they were sticky they did not stay in place. They felt natural but uncomfortable (if that makes any sense). For a purely cosmetic NEED, they could suffice.

Hi Lisa, I'm so happy you're using an SPF! Everyone needs to as their last step. Just make sure you allow 5 minutes or so for Aria moisturizer to fully absorb and then add the moisturizer with SPF. Nice to hear from you and thanks so much for the wonderful comments you left. I was thrilled to read our serum is the only product you ever purchased twice! We seem to be living in a hyper-critical world so every kind word is refreshing and greatly appreciated! Thanks again and let me know if you need anymore help. Best, Lois

I actually have really oily skin on my face and I have found that the more often you moisturize, the less oily your skin will be. Yes, this works very well with my skin :)

I too initially had problems with them sticking but I found if you apply pressure and heat for several minutes (2-3 minutes) when you put it on it stays much better. When put them on press the palm of your hand on the electrode - that gives it both pressure and warmth and you will probably need to do that each time you put on the electrode. They still don't stick as well as other I've had but these will do until I need them again. Don't use alcohol or anything else on them but you can use a little warm water on them when you reapply them and that might help as well.

You ate applying a moisturizer first right? A light based moisturizer for oily skin? Bc without moisturizer your skin will produce more sebum to compensate for it! This airbrush makeup is great but if you are blotting tht often with blot tissues it will disrupt the finish. Hope tht helps

I've never had a problem with one coming off. Just make sure your skin is clean and dry, and smooth it down well when you apply it. Try to put it in spots where it doesn't fold over on itself when you sit. Good luck!

I put nothing on afterwards, that's just my skin type though. If your moisturizer has fragrance etc. it might irritate your skin, maybe wait awhile. Coconut oil is what we use,very mild.

Try putting your finger inside and push it back or pull it back some and put lotion not oil on it then it should work it gets stuck sometimes

have you tried a good double stick tape of if you want them to stay on permanently... I'd try an epoxy or other sealants readily available.... good luck...
