How to apply

Two minutes, and they'll stay on for eight to twelve hours.

Clean, dry skin.

No lotion, oil or body glitter underneath. Anything between the adhesive and your skin costs you hours.

Sunscreen counts.

SPF is designed to form a water-resistant film. That's the opposite of what adhesive needs.

Pasties go on first.

Before sunscreen, before glitter, before body chains and layers — not after.

Take two minutes.

Rushing the last step is what makes them fall off.

Five steps

  1. Clean and dry the area.

    Micellar water, a fragrance-free wipe, or soap and water. Dry completely — damp is as bad as oily.

  2. Peel the backing.

    Handle by the edge. Try not to touch the adhesive face.

  3. Position before you press.

    Hold it just above where you want it and check. Every peel-and-reposition costs grip.

  4. Smooth from the centre outward.

    Work out to the edges so no air is trapped.

Press and hold for 30 seconds.

Body heat is what sets the adhesive. This is the step people skip, and it's the one that matters.

Taking them off

Peel slowly from the edge, at a shallow angle rather than straight out. Warm water softens the adhesive — if your skin is sensitive, take them off in the shower and it's painless. If a little residue is left, oil lifts it.

Why single use

Ours are single use, on purpose.

Fresh adhesive every time is what keeps them on for a whole night and what keeps your skin comfortable.

Re-worn adhesive has already collected skin cells, fabric fibres and product residue, and its grip drops sharply. A second wear isn't the same product as a first wear.

Going for more than one day

Plan a fresh pair per day, plus one spare. Running out on day three is a real thing that happens.

Two things worth putting in your bag
A spare pair
A fragrance-free wipe
So you can clean and dry properly if you need to reapply.

If something goes wrong

An edge is lifting.

Press and hold again with a warm hand. If it keeps lifting, there was product on the skin — or the size is too small to have enough margin.

They won't stick at all.

Almost always lotion, oil, sunscreen or glitter underneath. Wipe fully, dry, and start with a fresh pair.

It hurts to remove.

Warm water first. Peel at a shallow angle, not straight out.

They keep coming off at festivals.

Usually the size, not your technique — and bag straps crossing the chest are the second most common cause. We wrote up all eight reasons here.

Not sure what size you are?

Small fits 1″–1.5″, Medium 1.5″–2″, Large 2″–3″ — measured across your areola, not your cup size. Between two sizes, size up.

All three sizes are $12.
