Transdermal Patch Jars

Patchology's Eye and Lip Gels are Sold in Jars, Rather Than Sachets

— April 27, 2016 — Fashion
Most women are familiar with seeing eye and lip gels packaged in individual sachets, but Patchology deviates from this norm in order to reduce the cost of the patches it is able to sell. Individually packaged transdermal gels can cost between $5-10 per use, which means that consumers are more likely to reserve the treatment only for special occasions. In contrast, Patchology packs 60 patches (30 pairs) of its FlashPatch Eye Gels into a single container in a ying-yang formation to make the most of the space available.

The FlashPatch Eye Revive and Lip Renewal gels are made with a medical-grade hydrogel and the HydraSurge5 moisture system that's able to moisturize the skin in five minutes.
Trend Themes
1. Cost-effective Packaging - Packaging products in jars rather than sachets reduces costs and makes treatments more accessible.
2. Space Optimization - Arranging patches in a ying-yang formation maximizes the use of available space.
3. Medical-grade Hydrogel Technology - Using a medical-grade hydrogel with the HydraSurge5 moisture system provides effective skin hydration in a short amount of time.
Industry Implications
1. Beauty and Skincare - In the beauty and skincare industry, companies can explore cost-effective packaging solutions to make their products more appealing to consumers.
2. Pharmaceuticals - Pharmaceutical companies can leverage space optimization techniques to enhance the convenience and efficiency of their transdermal patches.
3. Medical Technology - In the medical technology industry, there is an opportunity to further develop and improve medical-grade hydrogel technology for various applications.
