Wake Up!
Let’s start with a little background info. What is The Good Patch, and what makes these patches so damn good?
This brand’s whole thing is plant-based, wearable wellness. They have patches to support energy levels, patches to help you get to dreamland, patches for skincare, and beyond. I initially caught a glimpse of them in Ulta, and was intrigued enough to head home and do some research.
The beauty of the patches – in my opinion – is that they are completely controlled by you. You can apply them anywhere there’s clean, dry skin in a venous area (the wrist is merely a suggestion!), feel the effects for up to 12 hours, and peel them off whenever you’re ready. They’re also easy to take with you and apply exactly when needed.
In particular, the B12 Awake patches are formulated with just 3 key natural ingredients:
- 15 mg caffeine
- Green tea extract
- Vitamin B12
And these ingredients are powerful! They keep working way longer than your average cup of joe, and you don’t have to worry about a dramatic crash when they wear off, which is a major win.
My Hero
So, how was my first time? Let me set the scene.
Upon opening the B12 patches, I loved the packaging: a simple resealable pack that’s subtle and sleek enough to go with you everywhere. I waited until the next morning and peeled a patch off the backing, stuck it on my wrist, and went about my day.
Within about 15 minutes, I noticed a change. I felt AWAKE. I actually made myself a very involved omelet instead of just pouring a bowl of cereal – and that kind of productivity stuck with me. It turns out, feeling more awake means you get more stuff done! At my desk, I felt more focused and positive, and my regularly scheduled power nap was forgotten.
After work, though, I was ready to relax… but I still had a little pep in my step. “Uh oh,” I thought to myself. “This is my fate now.” And then I remembered that, unlike a drink or a pill, I could control when I wanted this to end. I removed the patch at 6 pm – 9 hours of wear – and was able to unwind and enjoy my evening.
This has been my consistent experience every time. A clean energy support, whenever I want it. Sure, I still indulge in some cat naps, but now I feel like I don’t need to.
