My first company, Glow Dreaming, helped over 250,000 families fix their kids' sleep. I ran it for 8 years before selling to private equity. Eight years of sitting with parents at 11pm answering emails about why their toddler still wasn't sleeping through the night.
Eight years of also not sleeping. Coffee for fuel. Magnesium that did nothing. Melatonin that left me foggy until 11am. I built Sleep Skins because I needed it for myself - and because I knew there was a better way to deliver sleep actives than swallowing them at bedtime.
A patch is a reservoir. We sized it for the night, dosed it for sustained release, and left out melatonin entirely.
