Wrinkles Schminkles - Silicone Anti-Wrinkle Patches

Medical-grade silicone patches that visibly smooth wrinkles while you sleep. Wrinkles Schminkles invented a new category of non-invasive skincare in 2014: reusable patches made of 100% medical-grade silicone that keep skin taut, prevent creasing overnight, and provide intense hydration. Visible results within hours, with a cumulative effect with continued use. An affordable alternative to injections, recommended by dermatologists and plastic surgeons worldwide. This revolutionary treatment is for anyone seeking an effective solution against the signs of aging, side-sleeping, and sun damage.

What Makes Wrinkles Schminkles Unique: Medical-Grade Silicone for Anti-Aging

Wrinkles Schminkles is based on a simple yet radical innovation: using the same medical technology employed for wound healing. Gabrielle Requena, a former management consultant turned beauty entrepreneur, discovered the exceptional properties of medical-grade silicone during a visit to a friend who had just given birth by cesarean section. The silicone patch on her scar was her turning point. She spent the next two years traveling the world to find a manufacturer capable of creating 100% medical-grade silicone patches that were reusable, transparent, and suitable for targeted wrinkle treatment. After countless prototypes, she finally found an FDA-certified laboratory in the United States.
Medical-grade silicone is not simply an adhesive. It works by occlusion: when applied to the skin, it creates a barrier that prevents any skin contraction or wrinkling. Meanwhile, it draws natural moisture to the skin's surface and traps it between the epidermis and the patch. This intensive hydration stimulates microcirculation and boosts the production of collagen, the essential protein that diminishes with age. The patches are worn overnight or for a few hours during the day. Upon waking, the skin is visibly smoother, plumper, and firmer.

Beyond its signature silicone patches, Wrinkles Schminkles has developed two major innovations. The self-dissolving microneedle patches use 1,800 painless microneedles that penetrate the dermal layers to directly deliver collagen, hyaluronic acid, caffeine, and peptides in the form of a crystallized serum. These microneedles gradually dissolve, releasing their active ingredients where traditional creams cannot reach.
Sheet masks, on the other hand, utilize advanced biocellulose technology: the material adheres to the skin like a second skin and allows for the rapid infusion of 20 to 25 ml of cosmeceutical serum in just 15 minutes. This is the equivalent of an entire bottle of serum delivered in a single application.

A 2019 clinical study of 92 women demonstrated the effectiveness of Wrinkles Schminkles patches. 75% of participants saw a visible reduction in wrinkles after regular use. The patches are hypoallergenic, latex-free, paraben-free, and free of harmful substances. They are certified cruelty-free and vegan-friendly, with the exception of the InfuseFAST sheet masks and microneedle patches, which contain marine collagen. The products are FDA and TGA listed and EU and UK certified.
Wrinkles Schminkles champions a judgment-free view of aging. The brand's name itself, playful and uninhibited, reflects this philosophy. "Wrinkles, schminkles": wrinkles, who cares, right? The brand rejects the anxiety-inducing marketing of traditional anti-aging. It offers a different approach: aging gracefully means having a choice. The choice to accept your wrinkles or to soften them, without pressure, without guilt. The patches are for those who want a non-invasive, affordable, and effective solution. An alternative to injections, which are beyond everyone's budget or beliefs.
The brand is committed to environmental responsibility. In partnership with TerraCycle, Wrinkles Schminkles created the world's first recycling program for silicone patches. Every product in the range is recyclable, clean, and non-toxic. The brand also supports charities through its partnership with i=Change, having already donated over $34,000.

The Story of Wrinkles Schminkles: When a Low Cut Inspires a Revolution

In 2013, Gabrielle Requena noticed wrinkles appearing on her chest. Sleeping on her side, exposed to the Australian sun of her childhood in Queensland, she saw her skin showing the effects. She searched for a non-invasive solution that truly worked, without having to invest in twelve-step routines or expensive procedures. It was during a postpartum visit to a friend that she discovered medical-grade silicone, used to minimize scars. The idea took root: why not apply this proven technology to wrinkle treatment?
Gabrielle, who has no formal training in cosmetics but perfectly understands her target audience—herself and the women around her—embarks on this adventure. She travels, tests, and refines her product. In 2014, Wrinkles Schminkles is born with its first iconic product: the Anti-Aging Décolleté Patch.

Cult Products Wrinkles Schminkles at Superskin

Anti-aging Eye Patch - Smooth and refreshed eye contour
The eye contour area is often the first to betray the signs of aging. Fatigue, genetics, sleeping on your side, UV damage: it all shows under the eyes. These medical-grade silicone patches are comfortable to wear under the eyes overnight or for a few hours during the day. They prevent delicate skin from creasing, deeply rehydrate, stimulate blood circulation, and help boost collagen production. The result: smoothed wrinkles, reduced dark circles, diminished puffiness, and a rested look. Transparent texture and perfect adhesion.

Anti-aging Forehead Patch - Smoothes Forehead and Reduces Frown Lines
Forehead wrinkles and frown lines between the eyebrows are often the most visible. This patch covers the entire forehead and even fits between the eyebrows. It keeps the skin taut, prevents nighttime muscle contractions, and provides intensive hydration. The medical-grade silicone works while you sleep to smooth horizontal wrinkles and vertical creases. Comfortable, it doesn't disturb sleep. Results are immediate upon waking and improve with regular use.

The Anti-Aging Patch for the Décolleté - Smoothing the Décolleté and Diminishing Fine Lines
The first product created by Gabrielle Requena, and still a bestseller. The décolleté is an often-neglected area, yet particularly vulnerable to damage from side sleeping and sun exposure. These silicone patches cover the décolleté area and prevent the vertical creases that form overnight. They rehydrate this delicate skin, visibly improve its texture, and smooth existing wrinkles. Worn regularly, they transform the appearance of this often-problem area. A must-have for side sleepers.

The Anti-Aging Lip Patch - Redefined Lips and Reduced Lines
A non-invasive alternative to injections, these patches target wrinkles around the mouth and nasolabial folds (marionette lines). They are applied vertically along the folds or horizontally above and below the lips. The medical-grade silicone smooths, plumps, and firms this area prone to signs of aging, exacerbated by smoking, sun damage, and genetics. They can even extend the effects of injections between appointments with a healthcare professional.

Plumping Sheet Mask for the Face - 25ml of Serum in 15 Minutes
A game-changing sheet mask. Unlike conventional masks, this one is made of biocellulose, a material created through lab fermentation that perfectly conforms to the contours of the face like a second skin. This technology allows for a rapid and deep infusion of 25ml of cosmeceutical serum—the equivalent of an entire bottle—in just 15 minutes. The formula concentrates 24 active ingredients: marine collagen, peptides, vitamin C, vitamin B3, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants. Skin is instantly hydrated, plumped, smoothed, and radiant. An eco-friendly bonus: the mask is 100% biodegradable and decomposes in soil within 8 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions about Wrinkles Schminkles

Are Wrinkles Schminkles products suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the medical-grade silicone patches are hypoallergenic and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Medical-grade silicone is known for its exceptional biocompatibility. However, if you have a known silicone allergy, avoid using the patches. Other products in the range, such as InfuseFAST sheet masks, are formulated without parabens, dyes, or fragrances, making them also suitable for reactive skin.
Is Wrinkles Schminkles cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes, all Wrinkles Schminkles products are certified cruelty-free. No products are tested on animals, and the brand has letters of certification from its manufacturers guaranteeing this practice. The majority of products are vegan-friendly. The only exceptions are the sheet masks and the self-dissolving microneedle patches, which contain marine collagen.

Who are Wrinkles Schminkles products aimed at?
Wrinkles Schminkles caters to anyone seeking a non-invasive, affordable, and effective solution to smooth wrinkles and prevent their appearance. The brand champions aging without judgment: whether you choose to embrace your wrinkles or minimize them, the choice is yours. The patches are particularly suitable for side sleepers, those with sun damage, those seeking an alternative to injections, or those wanting to prolong the effects of their cosmetic treatments.

How many times can silicone patches be reused?
Medical-grade silicone patches are reusable between 15 and 30 times, depending on your skin type and how well you care for them. It's important to clean them after each use with water or the specific Silicone Patch Cleanser, then let them dry with the adhesive side up before placing them back on their storage sheet. The better you care for them, the longer they will last.

Can Wrinkles Schminkles patches be worn during pregnancy?
Yes, medical-grade silicone patches are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. They are made with 100% medical-grade silicone and are latex-free, paraben-free, and free of harmful substances. Many pregnant women use them because they have to sleep on their side. For other products in the range, it is always recommended to test on a small area for an hour before full use and to consult your doctor if you have any doubts.

Do the patches really work or is it just a temporary effect?
The patches offer visible results immediately after use: skin is smoothed and plumped, and wrinkles are reduced. This effect is due to intensive hydration and the way the skin is held in a taut position. With regular use, the results become cumulative: the skin "remembers" its smoothed position, wrinkles appear less deep, and collagen production is stimulated. A clinical study conducted in 2019 on 92 women showed that 75% of them experienced a significant reduction in wrinkles with regular use.
