The Skinny Confidential Mouth Tape is Here For Your Deepest Beauty Sleep Ever

We’re so excited to introduce you to the newest member of The Skinny Confidential’s wellness/beauty/self care lineup – MOUTH TAPE.

Have you heard of mouth taping? It really is all the rage and after hearing Laird Hamilton talk about it in 2019, reading Breathe, Shut Your Mouth and Save Your Life Mouth, Jaws and talking to Dr. Huberman on The HIM & HER Show, I became addicted. Obsessed. A connoisseur. And it’s an easy habit to stick with (lol) because the results and benefits are insane.

Think: strengthened/defined jawline, stronger chin profile, brighter eyes, wake up with way more energy and I personally noticed a huge difference in my snoring.

Plus, it’s actually the best beauty tip EVER. Brighter eyes? A sculpted chin and jaw? An overall stronger face? Deeper sleep? It’s a win in every way.  If you don’t get enough sleep, don’t feel rested or are still tired when you wake up, keep reading.

The Skinny Confidential Mouth Tape

Mouth Tape, out of every product we’ve ever done, is the most life changing. What it’s done for my face and energy levels after using it every night for 10 months is out of this world. And I was a big mouth breather. I was a snorer, which did get better with my double jaw surgery, but still. Now I’m not either of those things. I’m extremely passionate about recommending this to everyone because it’s enhanced my life beyond what I ever thought a little piece of tape could.

When I first heard about mouth tape, I was just like WHAT? It was the weirdest thing I’d ever heard, and you know that I’ve tried some weird shit in the name of beauty and wellness (colostrum cream, vagina steaming, and a salmon semen facial comes to mind). After a few weeks of mouth taping my energy was through the roof. After 2 months I noticed the biggest difference in my face. My jaw is stronger and more defined, the whites of my eyes were whiter, I wasn’t thirsty in the morning. I felt and feel incredible because of it. Being a mom of two young kids and running a business and podcast can wipe you out, so as you can imagine, waking up with a noticeably higher energy level IS life changing. 

Experts agree:

“Think about how much water we expel from an hour of breathing. I think it’s a liter an hour when we breathe through our mouths. It’s much less if you breathe through your nose. So you’re going to feel better about yourself, your skin will tighten up, your jaw will tighten up, there are a lot of reasons why mouth taping is a great thing.”

– Dr. Mark Burhenne (listen to his episode here)

“Sleep is absolutely the foundation for mental health, physical health and performance. In general, we should all be nasal breathing unless you’re eating or speaking or doing a specific breathwork practice. Mouth taping is great for people who have trouble with snoring or switching over to nasal breathing.”

– Dr. Andrew Huberman (listen to his episode here)

WHAT IS MOUTH TAPING?

Mouth taping is an easy home remedy for treating mouth breathing when you sleep & it’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like.

Mouth taping is the process of placing tape over your lips while you sleep at night. This literally FORCES you to breathe through your nose throughout the night & can have positive effects on your health.

Breathing through the nose is the way that the human body optimally functions. And of course, we can make a conscious effort to close our mouths when we are awake. But, when we sleep it’s a whole different story. We lose that ability when we are asleep.

The benefits of nasal breathing are incredible for your entire facial structure.

BENEFITS OF USING MOUTH TAPE AT NIGHT:

♡ Beauty benefits galore:

Taping your mouth at night strengthens your jawline making it more defined, and your chin profile stronger. On top of that Lauryn has noticed whiter eyes, better breath, way more energy in the mornings.

♡ Improved sleep:

Breathing through your nose can help you establish a stable breathing pattern, which can help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, have a deeper sleep, AND wake up feeling more refreshed.

♡ Can reduce snoring:

Mouth breathing at night is one of the most common causes of nasal congestion & that annoying sound we call snoring. Not only can snoring disrupt your breathing pattern throughout the night, it can also really annoy your SO.

According to the Sleep Foundation, mouth taping for sleep changes the angle of your palate & tongue, and thus, mouth taping can help reduce snoring. No snoring = better sleep = better LIFE.

HOW TO USE MOUTH TAPE:

When you’ve finished your nighttime routine apply mouth tape over the lips and prepare for a deep sleep. When removing the tape the next morning, pull skin taut and gently remove. 

You’ll never go to sleep without your bright pink lip tape again…especially with that new chiseled jawline.

For best results, use every night. 

HOT TIP: Shave your face to ensure a seamless mouth tape removal. No biggie if you don’t. It’s like ripping off a bandaid. 

Mouth taping is the hottest new beauty tip. It can strengthen your jaw, chisel your chin, give you a deeper sleep, can help you snore less, & make your mouth feel healthier & cleaner. It really enhances your nighttime routine. Think of it as sealing the deal on your entire nightly rituals. 

At first, taping your mouth might seem a little weird & uncomfortable. But, after a few nights, you’ll get used to it & see all the benefits.

We’re so excited to hear what you think and most importantly, SEE your transformations. 

As I said, when mouth taping was first introduced to me, I was shocked. Naturally, I had some questions. If you are new to mouth tape, you probably do to.

IN -DEPTH FAQs:

Can anyone use these?

Mouth tape is for anyone who wants brighter eyes, a stronger jaw, and a more sculpted chin. Men and women can use mouth tape every single night. (We wouldn’t recommend these for children.)

How do I use mouth tape ?

15 minutes after your nightly skin care routine, apply Mouth Tape over the lips to enforce nasal breathing.

How does mouth tape work exactly?

By taping your mouth shut you’re forced to breathe through your nose. When you’re awake you can consciously make an effort to breathe through your nose but it’s hard to do that when you’re sleeping. The Skinny Confidential mouth tape does that for you. 

What are the beauty benefits?

A stronger more defined jawline and chin, whiter eyes, better breath and way more energy in the mornings. What’s more beautiful than waking up chiseled, happy and rejuvenated?

Mouth Tape helps you sleep ?

Breathing through the nose can help establish a stable breathing pattern, which can help you fall asleep faster, have a deeper sleep, and wake up more refreshed.

What if I feel like I can’t breathe?

Try to relax. Take long deep breaths, in and out through your nose. Your body was made for nasal breathing. In fact, nasal breathing promotes relaxation. But, if you’re ever too uncomfortable, remove the tape. Take baby steps. It takes some getting used to. 

Should I wear mouth tape if I have a cold?

Again, do what you feel comfortable with, but nasal breathing encourages less mucus production and oral bacteria. However, if you’re really stuffed up, we recommend taking a break from mouth taping and resuming when you feel better. 

Will it hurt when I rip it off?

No. Just be sure to pull your skin taut and remove quickly. It’s like ripping off a bandaid. If you’re still worried about this we recommend shaving your face. For men with long mustaches or beards, we recommend a little Ice Queen Facial Oil on your hair before applying the tape.

And there you have it. Thank YOU once again for your support and being part of the community. I say this every launch but it’s because I really mean it and it’s true: Our product line is only possible because of you and we’re forever grateful. Creating innovative products or taking something that needs a refresh is my passion and you have allowed me to follow it.

If you feel sleep deprived and just aren’t getting enough hours a night, then you should definitely give mouth tape a try. Sleep plays such an important role in every single part of our body. Making sure you’re getting quality sleep should be at the top of your list, and boy oh boy does mouth tape help.

Hope you love it.

x, Lauryn
