Après is a small, comfortable patch you wear on clean, dry skin before you drink.  It uses transdermal technology, which means it releases nutrients through your skin over several hours instead of going through your stomach.  The patch runs quietly in the background while you enjoy your night, helping your body process alcohol and recover faster the next day.

Skinware™ is our way of making the skin an interface for your health.  Instead of swallowing pills or powders, you stick on a patch and it does the work without interrupting your routine.

Après is thin, soft and low‑profile.  Once applied with a firm five‑second press, it flexes with your skin.  Most people forget it’s there while it works.

Après is for adults who drink and still want to feel clear and energetic the next day.  It’s especially helpful if you have work, school or family commitments that can’t wait.  You should be at least 18 years old and not allergic to any ingredients on our label.

Do not use Après if you are under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have a medical condition that limits alcohol intake.  If you have sensitive skin, known adhesive allergies or are taking medication, consult a clinician first.  Our patch is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any disease.  It’s a tool to support your wellness – drinking responsibly is still important. 

Yes. Like all supplements, the ingredients lose potency over time. Do not use the patch beyond the expiration date printed on the pouch. Using an expired patch may reduce effectiveness and increase the risk of irritation.

No. It’s best to store the patches at normal room temperature.  Extreme heat (such as leaving them in a hot car) or humidity may affect adhesion and potency. Keeping them in a cool, dry drawer is fine, but refrigeration is not necessary.

Most products marketed for hangovers come as pills, powders or drinks that you take after you feel unwell.  These “reactive” remedies depend on your digestive system, which alcohol slows down.  A transdermal patch bypasses your stomach and liver and releases a steady, low dose over hours.  Transdermal delivery has long been used for medicines such as scopolamine (for motion sickness) and nicotine replacement. By delivering through the skin, Après reduces the need to remember pills and lets you enjoy your evening without extra steps.

We do not claim to be the “highest.” Our focus is on delivering a consistent dose. The patch uses medical‑grade adhesive, a permeation enhancer and a matrix that controls release over 12 hours.  Skin permeability varies by person and body site, and only certain molecules can cross. We test each batch for uniformity and refine our design, but we avoid unverified marketing superlatives.

It depends on what you’re comparing. Transdermal systems are useful when drugs or nutrients are broken down by stomach acid or lose potency in the liver.  They can provide a constant release for many hours and avoid the “first‑pass” metabolism of the liver. Oral supplements must be digested and may have variable absorption, especially if your gut is inflamed or you forget to take them. Après uses a controlled‑release matrix and a permeation enhancer to keep a gentle, consistent dose. This does not mean it is stronger than pills – it’s designed for convenience and consistency.

No. Après contains nutrients and plant extracts that have been studied for their antioxidant and metabolic effects.  Transdermal delivery is a recognised route of administration. However, no patch can override irresponsible drinking, and individual responses vary.  We encourage you to view Après as part of a broader approach that includes pacing yourself and staying hydrated, not as a magic cure.

Each pouch has an expiration date printed on it. To keep your patches effective, store them in their original foil pouches at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Do not refrigerate or freeze them, and keep them out of reach of children and pets. Discard any patches after their expiry date.

No. Après is not a licence to over‑drink. Hangover discomfort is your body’s way of signalling you’ve had enough. Drinking responsibly and pacing yourself are still the best ways to stay healthy. Après helps you maintain more of your energy and focus the next day, but it does not make alcohol safe in excess.

Each Après patch releases its ingredients steadily for up to 12 hours. This window matches the time your body processes alcohol, not just the time a drink is in your hand. Remove and discard the patch after this wear period and apply a new one if needed.

Après helps your body break down and clear alcohol more efficiently, which can reduce the severity of next‑day headaches, nausea and fatigue.  Many users report waking up feeling clearer and more functional.  Results vary with your body, how much and how quickly you drink, hydration and sleep.

Many users say they feel more clear and functional when they use the patch before drinking. By supporting the way your body processes alcohol, Après may reduce the intensity of headaches, nausea and fatigue. Results depend on factors like how much you drink, how hydrated you are and how much sleep you get. It is not a guarantee – responsible drinking and rest are still your best allies.

No product can guarantee that you will have no hangover. The main way to avoid hangovers is to drink less and stay hydrated.  Supplements that claim to “cure” hangovers lack strong evidence. Après is designed to support your body’s metabolism and recovery but it cannot offset excessive drinking.

Open the pouch, peel the liner off the patch and apply it 20–30 minutes before your first drink. Place it on clean, dry, hair‑free skin, press firmly for five seconds and smooth down any edges. Leave it on for up to 12 hours, then remove and discard. Do not cut the patch or move it once applied.

Apply Après 20–30 minutes before your first drink. Choose a clean, dry, hair‑free area such as the upper arm, lower abdomen or shoulder blade. Press firmly for five seconds to seat the edges – this ensures good contact and reduces the chance of lifting.

Pick an approved site where the skin is flat and will not rub against clothing. Rotate sites with each use to give your skin time to rest. Avoid irritated, broken or sunburned skin, as this can increase absorption and irritation.

Choose a flat area such as the upper arm, shoulder blade or lower abdomen where clothing will not rub excessively. Rotating the site each time gives your skin a chance to recover. Avoid broken, irritated or sunburned skin.

Do not cut Après patches. Cutting breaks the matrix that controls release and reduces effectiveness.  Using multiple patches at the same time will not speed up results and may increase the risk of skin irritation. Stick to one patch at a time and follow the recommended wear time.

Yes. Après is designed to withstand a quick shower and moderate sweating. Pat the area dry rather than rubbing, and avoid prolonged baths or saunas, which can loosen the adhesive.

Yes. The adhesive is designed to withstand short showers and normal sweating. Pat around the patch to dry; avoid rubbing the edges. Prolonged baths or heavy friction can reduce adhesion.

See the Product Information section above for shelf life and storage. Patches should be kept sealed until use, stored at room temperature and used before the expiry date.

If a patch loosens or falls off before 12 hours, do not re‑apply the same one. Dispose of it and apply a new patch to clean, dry skin.

Our adhesive is engineered to flex with your skin. Normal movement, dancing or light exercise shouldn’t dislodge it. Excessive sweating or friction can reduce stickiness, so press the edges back down if they lift and replace the patch if it comes off completely.

Most users tolerate Après well. As with any adhesive product, some people may experience mild skin irritation or redness.  Irritant contact dermatitis is the most common skin reaction. Less often, an allergic reaction to the adhesive or an ingredient can occur.  If redness or itching extends beyond the patch area or persists after removal, stop using the patch and consult a clinician.

No. Après is intended for adults aged 18 and over. It is not suitable for minors or anyone who is not legally allowed to consume alcohol.

No. We advise against using Après during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Many ingredients have not been studied in these contexts, and alcohol itself is not recommended during pregnancy.

Our patches are free from common food allergens like dairy, eggs, nuts and shellfish. The adhesive is hypoallergenic, but reactions are still possible. If you have a known allergy to any listed ingredient or to adhesives, do not use the patch and consult your doctor. Signs of an allergic reaction include widespread redness, swelling or difficulty breathing – seek medical help immediately.

Because transdermal systems deliver nutrients directly to your bloodstream, interactions are possible.  Using a patch alongside other medications may alter effectiveness or increase side effects. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about all supplements and medicines you’re taking before adding Après.

No. We do not recommend using Après during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you take prescription medications, have a chronic illness or metabolic disorder, consult your doctor before using any supplement or alcohol support product. Combining multiple medications with alcohol can affect your health.

We use medical‑grade adhesive, but sensitive skin can react to any product. Test the patch on a small area for a few hours the first time you use it. Rotate sites and avoid applying over the same spot repeatedly. Discontinue use if irritation persists.

We use hypoallergenic, medical‑grade adhesive, but individual sensitivities vary. Rotate application sites and give your skin time to rest. Apply moisturiser after patch removal but avoid lotions just before application, as they can affect adhesion. If you have a history of adhesive allergies, talk to a dermatologist before use.

Après contains relatively low doses designed to support, not overwhelm, your system. Using more than one patch at a time will not speed up results and may increase the risk of side effects. Always follow the recommended instructions and remove the patch after 12 hours.

Après is intended for adults. We do not condone underage drinking. If you are under 18, do not use this product.

All active ingredients are nutrients or plant extracts. The adhesive matrix uses medical‑grade materials to hold the patch in place and control release. We publish our ingredient list and safety data so you can make an informed choice.

Our formula is free from dairy, lactose, eggs, peanuts and shellfish. If you have a known allergy to any ingredient on the label or to adhesives, do not use the patch and consult a doctor.

Transdermal patches work by creating a concentration gradient across the skin. When the patch is applied, active molecules diffuse through the stratum corneum and into your bloodstream.  First‑generation patches deliver small, lipophilic (fat‑loving) molecules at low doses. Après uses ingredients selected for their size and solubility, along with a permeation enhancer and occlusive adhesive to encourage absorption. Not all compounds can cross the skin barrier, which is why we choose plant extracts and vitamins that are suitable for this route.

Après contains plant‑based compounds and vitamins that support your body when you drink.  Key ingredients include:

• Dihydromyricetin (DHM) – a flavonoid from the Japanese raisin tree that supports alcohol metabolism.
• N‑Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) – an amino acid derivative that helps maintain your body’s glutathione levels.
• Glutathione – a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals.
• Milk Thistle and Picrorhiza – herbal extracts traditionally used to support liver health.
• B‑Complex vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, B12) – to replenish nutrients depleted by alcohol.
• Magnesium and Ginger Root – for general metabolic and stomach support.

Our patches are vegan, gluten‑free and contain no dairy, soy or animal by‑products.  We do not use artificial colours or preservatives.

Few peer‑reviewed studies have tested hangover patches. Supplements that claim to “cure” hangovers lack strong evidence. Our approach focuses on support and prevention rather than making unrealistic claims. We design our patches to deliver a steady dose over several hours and test them for adhesion, release and skin safety.

Yes. Transdermal delivery has been studied and used in medicine for decades. The first system for systemic delivery, a scopolamine patch for motion sickness, was approved in 1979. Since then, numerous patches for hormones, pain relief and smoking cessation have been licensed, and researchers continue to explore chemical enhancers and microneedles to improve absorption. These advances demonstrate that the skin can be a reliable route for small, fat‑soluble molecules.

Our patch is new. We perform laboratory tests to confirm that our formulation releases ingredients over 12 hours and adheres well. We also conduct small human‑factor and skin‑safety studies before launch. Larger, peer‑reviewed clinical trials are planned. We do not rely on anecdotal reports alone – we build evidence over time.

Yes. Before launch, we conduct human‑factor studies to see how easily people can apply, wear and remove the patch. We also run small-scale wear‑time and skin‑safety studies to monitor irritation and release. These studies inform our instructions and improvements.

As discussed above, the patch contains active compounds. However, because hangover severity depends on many factors, including how much you drink, hydration and sleep, experiences vary. We encourage responsible drinking and do not claim to “cure” hangovers.

Our formulation is built on well‑studied compounds. Ingredients like DHM, NAC and Milk Thistle have been researched for their antioxidant and liver‑supporting properties. Transdermal delivery has been used safely for decades to deliver medicines and nutrients through the skin.  Our team is conducting human‑factor and pharmacokinetic studies to validate the release profile and safety of our patch. We will publish results as they become available.

Yes. We do not use animal products or by‑products in our formulation or packaging. We do not test on animals.

We work with trusted suppliers in the United States, Europe and Korea to source plant‑based ingredients of high purity. Ingredients are tested for identity, potency and contaminants before formulation. Our adhesive materials are medical grade and latex‑free.

Après is designed in Canada and manufactured in facilities that follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and ISO 13485 standards for medical devices. Our manufacturing partner is one of the largest transdermal patch producers in the world and has more than 50 years of experience. They hold ISO 9001, ISO 13485 and ISO 22716 certifications.

Each patch is single‑use for safety and hygiene reasons. After use, fold the patch in half with the adhesive sides together and dispose of it properly – do not flush it. Returning used patches to a pharmacy collection program helps prevent accidental exposure and protects the environment.

We believe better personal care also means better care for the planet. We offset part of our carbon footprint through tree‑planting partners and donate a portion of profits to clean water and nutritional programmes. We will publish an annual sustainability report to keep you updated on our progress.

Our shipping boxes are curbside recyclable and made from post‑consumer recycled paper. The patch pouches protect freshness and currently use multi‑layer materials that are not yet curbside recyclable.  We partner with recycling programs and are actively exploring compostable and monomaterial options for future runs.
