FAQs
What even is a vitamin patch?
Imagine a tiny, painless sticker that delivers vitamins through your skin instead of your stomach.
That's it. That's the patch.
You stick it on a clean area (inner arm, shoulder, hip — wherever feels comfy), go about your day, and the active ingredients slowly release into your body over 8–12 hours. No swallowing. No bloating. No setting alarms to remember six different bottles.
It's basically wellness on autopilot.
Wait, does this actually work?
Real answer: yes, but let's be honest about how it works.
Transdermal delivery (fancy word for "through-the-skin") has been used for decades — think nicotine patches, hormone patches, motion-sickness patches. It's a legit science.
Daily Patches use the same delivery method, but for everyday wellness — vitamins, herbs, and clean ingredients formulated for Indian skin.
Will you wake up looking like Deepika Padukone in 7 days? No. (Sorry.) Will you feel a real difference if you wear them daily for 2-4 weeks? Yes. That's how wellness actually works.
Is it safe?
Yes. Patches go on your skin, not in your bloodstream like a needle. The ingredients absorb gradually and gently — way slower than swallowing a pill.
We don't use:
- Titanium dioxide (banned in EU for a reason)
- Artificial dyes
- Hidden sugar
- Stimulants pretending to be "natural energy"
- Anything we wouldn't put on our own mom
Translation: clean enough that your dermatologist won't side-eye you.
How do I use it?
Three steps. We'll resist the urge to make this complicated:
- Clean and dry the skin (no oil, lotion, or post-workout sweat)
- Peel and stick the patch on a soft area — inner arm, shoulder, hip, lower back
- Wear it for 8–12 hours, then peel off and toss
That's it. No app. No reminder. No PhD required.
Where on my body do I stick it?
Anywhere with thinner, softer skin — the patch absorbs better there.
Best spots:
- Inner forearm (most popular)
- Upper arm / shoulder
- Hip / lower back
- Inner thigh
Avoid:
- Face (these aren't those kind of patches)
- Anywhere with cuts, rashes, or irritation
- That one mole your mom keeps telling you to get checked
Can I shower with it on?
Short answer: a quick shower, yes. A 45-minute steam session set to lo-fi beats, probably not.
Our adhesive is sweat-resistant and water-friendly for normal daily activities. If you're going for a swim or doing intense gym, take it off and stick on a fresh one after.
Will it leave a mark on my skin?
Nope. The adhesive is gentle and dermatologically tested for Indian skin. Some people see a faint outline for an hour or two after peeling — it fades quickly.
If your skin is super sensitive, do a small patch test on your inner arm for 2 hours first. (We do this for new earrings, why not patches?)
Are these like Korean pimple patches?
Different family.
Pimple patches are topical — they pull gunk out of one spot.
Daily Patches are transdermal — they deliver wellness ingredients into your body through the skin.
Same general "stick-on" technology. Different mission entirely.
How is this better than just taking a pill?
Glad you asked. Here's the side-by-side:
| Pills | Daily Patches |
|---|---|
| Need to remember | Stick once, done |
| Often contain fillers, sugar, dyes | Just the actual ingredients |
| Hard on the stomach | Bypasses digestion entirely |
| 30-50% absorption (rest goes... bye) | Steady release through skin |
| Easy to forget mid-week | Visibly on you |
| Tastes like regret | Tastes like nothing because, well, skin |
Pills aren't evil. They're just inconvenient. We made something that fits real life.
Will it interfere with my regular medication?
Daily Patches are wellness products, not medical drugs. They use vitamins, herbs, and natural ingredients in safe, considered doses.
That said — if you're on prescription medication, pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a chronic condition, please talk to your doctor before using them. We'd rather you be safe than sorry, even if it means selling you fewer patches.
How fast will I see results?
Depends on what you're patching for, but here's a rough timeline:
- Energy / Sleep / Calm patches: Most people feel a difference within 3–7 days
- Glow / Hair / Skin patches: Visible changes in 3–4 weeks (skin is slow, sorry)
- Lean / Metabolism patches: Best results when paired with reasonable food + movement, 4–6 weeks
We're not a quick-fix brand. We don't believe in 7-day miracles. We believe in daily, gentle, consistent care — the kind that actually changes things over time.
How many do I get in a pack?
- Starter pack: 7 patches (one week trial)
- Monthly pack: 30 patches (one full cycle)
- 3-month pack: 90 patches (best value, our most loved)
You only need one patch a day. So a monthly pack actually lasts a month. (Crazy concept, we know.)
Do you ship across India? COD?
Yes and yes!
- Free shipping across India on all orders
- Cash on Delivery available everywhere
- 5% off if you prepay (we just love you a little extra for it)
- Dispatched within 24 hours from our India warehouse
- Delivery in 3–6 business days depending on your pin code
What if I don't like it?
We get it — you're trusting us with your money and your skin.
That's why we have a 15-day no-questions-asked refund policy. If your first pack doesn't feel right, write to us at [hello@dailypatches.in] and we'll sort it out. No "but-actually" emails. No gatekeeping forms. Just a refund.
(We don't get many returns. But we keep the policy honest because that's how trust works.)
Are these tested on animals?
No. Never. Not now, not ever.
Tested on us, our team, and a small army of friends who will happily volunteer for the Glow patch.
Are these patches Made in India?
Honest answer: We're a young brand. Right now, our patches are sourced from a verified manufacturer in South Korea (the gold standard for transdermal patch tech), then quality-checked, packed, and dispatched from our India facility.
As we grow, we're working on bringing full manufacturing to India. We'll keep you posted — promise.
Is this an Indian brand?
100%. Daily Patches is born in India, built for Indian skin, Indian climate, and Indian life.
Our team's in India. Our customer support is in India. Our chai obsession is very Indian.
Can I use multiple patches at once?
Technically yes, but we'd say… don't go wild.
If you're using a Daily Glow + Daily Sleep, that's totally fine — different times of day, different goals. But layering 4-5 patches at once is like ordering biryani, pizza, and pasta in one meal. Your body will be confused.
Stick to 1–2 patches a day max. Your skin (and your wallet) will thank you.
I have sensitive skin. Will it irritate me?
Our adhesive is dermatologically tested and designed for sensitive Indian skin. Most people have zero issues.
If you're prone to skin reactions, do a 2-hour test patch on your inner arm first. If you see redness or itchiness, don't continue. Email us — we'll refund you and apologize for being weirdly excited about a sticker that didn't work for you.
What if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Please skip our patches during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and consult your doctor before using any wellness product. This isn't us being paranoid — it's just basic care.
We'll be here when you're ready.
Where can I find you on Instagram?
@dailypatches — where we share patches, tips, customer stories, and the occasional cat picture (we have no shame).
DM us anytime. A real human (most likely Aanya or Riya) replies within a few hours.
One last thing — why "Daily" Patches?
Because that's the whole point.
Wellness shouldn't be a quarterly resolution or a 3-month detox you abandon by Day 9. It should be daily. Small. Easy. Like brushing your teeth, watering your plant, or replying to your mom's WhatsApp.
A small patch. Every day. That's the whole brand.
