To ensure your tabs stay secure through intense exercise or a full night’s sleep, use the following application steps with your existing Intake system hardware:
1.Prep Your Skin:
Wash your nose or use an alcohol prep pad to thoroughly remove dirt, natural facial oils, or moisture. Let your skin dry completely before moving to the next step.
2.Position & Apply the Tabs:
Place a fresh adhesive Tab on each side of your nose using your Intake Magnetic Applicator. Position them just above the flare of your nostrils—right at the natural “pinch point” where your nasal passage collapses when you breathe in hard. Press firmly to ensure total contact.
3.Let the Adhesive Cure:
Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attaching your reusable band. This gives the medical-grade adhesive time to bond securely with your skin so it won’t pop loose under mechanical tension.
4.Snap On Your Reusable Band:
Hold your reusable Intake Relief Band over your nose with the curvature facing upward. The powerful magnets embedded in the band will automatically snap onto the steel disks within these new tabs, instantly lifting and widening your nostrils.
Because Intake is a non-pharmacological, mechanical breathing device, it contains zero active drug ingredients, chemical additives, or medication. The refill tabs are built entirely from premium, body-safe materials:
Adhesive Nose Tabs: Formulated from 100% USA-made medical-grade, latex-free, and hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive.
Structural Mechanics: The tabs feature a proprietary triple-layer sweat-wicking design with a built-in steel disk for a seamless magnetic connection to your reusable Intake band.
Are these tabs reusable, or do I need a new pair every day?
The adhesive Nose Tabs are strictly single-use and must be replaced daily, as the medical-grade skin adhesive is designed for one secure application. This Refill Pack provides 30 pairs to give you a full 30-day supply. The magnetic Relief Bands and Applicator tool from your original Starter Kit are completely reusable and built to last indefinitely.
Can I use these refills without an Intake Starter Kit?
No. These refill tabs require the magnetic Intake Relief Band (included in the Starter Kit) to function. The tabs themselves do not expand your nose; they provide the magnetic anchoring point that the reusable band pulls outward to open your nasal pathways.
Will the adhesive hold up if I sweat heavily or have oily skin?
Yes, provided you follow the prep directions! The tabs feature a specialized sweat-wicking material and a high-bond medical adhesive. Because the tabs sit flat on the skin rather than fighting a spring-loaded bend like traditional nasal strips, they remain securely anchored through intense cardio, heavy sweating, and tossing and turning in bed. Always ensure your skin is clean and completely dry before applying.
Can I wear these if I have sensitive skin?
Absolutely. The adhesive used in Intake Nose Tabs is 100% biocompatible, latex-free, and hypoallergenic. It is engineered specifically for use on delicate facial skin.
