Having trouble getting the Intake Tabs to stick?Updated an hour ago

Are you having trouble getting the tabs to stick?

The secret to a long-lasting hold comes down to skin preparation. Sunscreen, facial oils, moisturizers, and makeup create a barrier that prevents the Tab adhesive from bonding properly with your skin.

To ensure your Tabs stay secure all day or night, follow this simple prep and care routine:

How to Apply for Maximum Hold

  1. Double-Cleanse Your Nose: Wash your face once to strip away heavy surface barriers (sunscreen, makeup, or thick creams). Wash a second time to clean out pore-level oils and residual debris.

  2. Prep with Alcohol: Wipe the sides of your nose with the provided alcohol pad (or Micellar water) to completely strip away remaining surface oils. Let the skin dry completely.

  3. Apply Your Tabs: Place the Tabs on your clean, dry skin and press firmly for 10–15 seconds to set the adhesive before attaching the Band.

How to Remove & Protect Your Skin

  1. Peel Gently: Slowly peel off the Tabs from the edges.

  2. Remove Residual Adhesive: Use a damp cloth or water wipe to clear away any leftover adhesive from your nostrils.

  3. Hydrate: Apply your regular moisturizer or skincare products after removal to keep your skin healthy and ready for your next wear.
