No question too small
Everything you're wondering, answered.
Trying mouth tape for the first time? Most people have the same few questions before night one. Here are honest answers, no fine print.
The big four
The questions that actually stop you.
Will I feel like I can't breathe?
No. You breathe through your nose as normal, and the soft hydrogel strip simply encourages your lips to stay closed. It peels off easily any time you need it, and most people forget it's there within a few nights.
What if it irritates my skin?
REM uses a soft hydrogel lip pad, not a harsh fabric tape. It's made to sit gently on delicate lip skin and peel away in the morning with no pulling or sticky residue.
Does it actually work?
REM encourages nasal breathing overnight, so you're less likely to wake with a dry mouth, and the collagen-infused pad leaves lips feeling soft and hydrated. Give it a week or two to settle into the ritual.
What if it's not for me?
Every order is backed by our 7-day satisfaction guarantee. If the ritual isn't right for you, just reach out and we'll look after you.

The product
What is REM Sleep Tape?
A beauty-first mouth tape. Each strip is a soft hydrogel lip pad infused with collagen, hyaluronic acid, aloe and vitamins, designed to gently encourage nasal breathing while you sleep and leave your lips feeling soft and hydrated by morning.
See the ritual →What's the difference between hydrogel and regular mouth tape?
Most mouth tapes are a fabric strip with adhesive. REM uses a soft hydrogel lip pad that sits gently on the delicate skin of your lips and keeps them hydrated overnight. It peels away easily, with no pulling or residue.
Why does nasal breathing matter?
Your nose is designed to warm, filter and humidify the air you breathe. Many of us don't realise we breathe through our mouths while we sleep.
Sleeping with your mouth open night after night can leave you waking with a dry mouth and dry lips, and looking less rested. It may also keep the body in a more stressed state overnight. Encouraging nasal breathing supports a calmer, more restful night so you wake feeling refreshed.
Why does REM sleep matter?
REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is one of the stages your body cycles through each night. It's when most dreaming happens, and it's thought to play a part in memory and mood. A consistent bedtime and a calm evening routine are a simple place to start.
How to use
How do I apply and remove it?
Cleanse your lips and the skin around your mouth, then pat dry. Peel the strip from its backing and place it over your closed lips, smoothing it gently from the centre out. In the morning, peel slowly from one corner while supporting your skin. If you notice any redness or irritation, stop using it.
How long until I get used to it?
Everyone's different. Many people like to give it a week or two to get used to the feeling. If it's not for you, our 7-day satisfaction guarantee has you covered.
Will it help with a dry mouth in the morning?
Breathing through your mouth at night is a common reason for waking with a dry mouth and dry lips. REM is designed to gently encourage nasal breathing overnight, while the hydrogel pad keeps your lips feeling soft and hydrated.
Try it tonight →Can I use it every night?
Yes. Each strip is for one night, and REM is designed to become part of your nightly wind-down, right after skincare.
Safety
Is mouth taping safe for me?
Mouth tape isn't right for everyone. Only use it if you can breathe comfortably through your nose. Don't use it if you have a blocked nose or cold, sleep apnoea or a respiratory condition, broken or irritated skin around your mouth, or if you've had alcohol or sedating medication. If you have any health concerns, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
Can I use REM Sleep Tape with CPAP?
REM Sleep Tape is a cosmetic lip-care product, not a medical treatment or a substitute for prescribed care. If you use a CPAP machine, have sleep apnoea, a nasal obstruction or a respiratory condition, please speak with your treating clinician before trying mouth tape. Your prescribed therapy should always come first.
Who is REM Sleep Tape designed for?
Adults who can breathe comfortably through their nose and want to encourage nasal breathing as part of their evening routine.
