BACKGROUND
Start the Diet Now Advertisement
First there were patches to help you quit smoking, then birth control, and now there is a patch for losing weight. Created for women trying to lose those last five pounds, the Pink Patch is a substance-infused sticker that you slap on once a day to curb your appetite. The ingredients, which seep into the skin, are intended to control your appetite for 24 hours while revving up your metabolism, curbing your appetite, boosting your energy and elevating your mood. Pink Patch is the newest product from Curb Your Cravings, responsible for the Hoodia patch.
The Pink Patch is marketed toward girls and women in their teens and early twenties. You are expected to lose approximately one to three pounds each week.
The suggested use for the Pink Patch is to stick one patch on your skin in the morning and leave it on throughout the entire day. You are encouraged to drink a lot of water, avoid alcohol and limit caffeine to only a cup per day while you are wearing the Pink Patch.
Do You Know the Best Diet Pills of 2024?
PRO
- The Pink Patch may be able to help you lose weight
- Pink Patch does not cite any side effects
CON
- No FDA approval or evaluation of the supposed and intended results of the Pink Patch
- No scientific or medical claims to support the Pink Patch claims
- It targets young women whose bodies might be more vulnerable to the unregulated and synthesized ingredients contained in the Pink Patch.
- Does not include any guidelines for how to maintain a healthy weight once the young woman stops wearing the patch.
- It encourages young women to be skinny and to do introduce potentially harmful substances into their bodies in order to achieve their dream bodies
INGREDIENTS
The Pink Patch contains, Fucus Vesiculosus , a type of seaweed, used in holistic medicine to reduce excess weight by increasing metabolism. It also contains yerba mate, a South American stimulant and hunger suppressor and lecithin, an emulsifier that is claimed to re-proportion your body weight. The ingredients in the Pink Patch are absorbed into the skin and are time released throughout the day.
DIET and EXERCISE
Even though there is no formal diet or exercise plan you should follow while wearing the Pink Patch, you are encouraged to eat a low-fat and low-calorie diet and exercise in order to be see the intended weight loss results.
CONCLUSION
The Pink Patch is a dietary supplement that has not been approved or evaluated by the FDA, therefore its effectiveness and safety cannot be validated. Also, be warned of any supplement that claims to shed pounds by simply putting a sticker on your arm. Moreover, since this product is targeted specifically to young women, it promotes the pressure for women to be skinny by doing whatever they can to achieve their perfect body even if that means taking a product that is unregulated and potentially harmful. As with any new drug or supplement, consult with your medical doctor before taking the Pink Patch.

Pink Patch?

I am still on the free trial and so far I like it. I honestly didn't think it would do me any good. I work so much that I am just too lethargic to get anything else done. I've been full of energy and lost my ability to be high strung. It makes me feel happy and happy people have happier bodies. I haven't weighed myself yet but I haven't been hungry and have smoked a lot less too.

i used the patches in about april of this year, I had a free trial week and then 2 months worth. I didn't feel like there was any drastic difference at the time, but I suddenly found myself a stone lighter at the beginning of summer, which was fab! sadly, after an illness this month and a full month of lying down, most of it has come back on again... :-(

Hello to all happy and angry users! I have questions for both of you. After seeing my best friend lose wait on the Pink Patch, I decided to give it a try. After I signed up for the free trial and gave my credit card information, like many of you, I did not read the fine print and I am worried about being billed more than the $2.95. So I e-mailed the company requesting to be removed from the monthly plan. Shortly, I received a confirmation e-mail stating that my plan had been cancelled. My question is, for the people that also received a confirmation e-mail, Was it Actual canceled?!?!?! After trying to call the customer service number and never getting to talk to anyone, I am becoming worried. This company seems very sketchy and I would just like to hear from someone else that they successfully canceled their membership. Thanks Ladies!

Hello. So one of my best friends is on the patch and I can definitely tell she is losing wait. Seeing this, I ordered my free trial today. Unfortunately I didn't see these reviews until after I gave my credit card information. I sent an e-mail to customer service saying I did not want to charged for anything after the free trial. I got a response saying my monthly autoship program was canceled. For the other people who received this e-mail a while ago, Is it actually cancelled?!?!?!?! I also tried calling the number to cancel, but got the same recording over and over again. I sat on the phone for about 5 minutes and gave up. Should I have waited later! Is there anybody who had the same experience that can help me out?!?!

Hi all! I ordered the pink patch months ago, but I am still hesitant to use it. I called the customer service to ask them general questions like will this have any bad side effects, will it act against my birth control, will it make my metabolism slow down after I used it ect...The lady I talked to was sooo stupid? She had no idea about anything, she barely spoke english. I am going to Florida in Jan. and I want to lose about 4-5 lbs. I am very athletic, but I never lose any weight, I am going to try it for the first week and then just stop. People that are saying that you should not use the patch long-term are probably right. Good luck to those of you who are trying it.

Hi. I am on day 2 of the trial, and not once had my usual junk food cravings. I cancelled the trial period yesterday by phone - i got the details from the website (contact us) and called gave my name and address and they said it was all cancelled. I have also found the patches cheaper on eBay at half the price!!! I would definately say to give it go - i feel great, not tired one bit and i havent been hungry all day like usual. I dont know if i have lost weight yet as i am waiting for the week to finish to see but i do feel better in myself - now whether that is just in my head or not who knows but i feel good! :-) I am going to ring and email to make sure mine is cancelled after reading the comment from ScentsAside. Hope this helps...

hi there. i just ordered the free trial. n was wunderin y i havnt got a email sayin its been ordered im worried cos it sed u shud follow instructions of that to cancel it so i dnt recieve it every month. do u get the email straight away or wen u recieve the product? help lol x

This is an outrageous con! You send for a free trial and agree to terms which research proves nobody reads. These conditions state they will charge you for it every month until you cancel. However, they don't give you details of how to cancel. When you do find their phone number and cancel it, they ignore the first phone call so you pay for another month. I haven't lost any weight on it.

ive used the pink patch for exactly one week now and icve already lost half a stone i get a rsh from it but it is worth it and i will recommend it to everyone i no :D and im very happy with the results so far

I got two trials lasted for 12 days, had absolutely no weight loss despite the diet and exercise routine started at the same time. instead, the patch creates itchy skin as it stops it breathing in this very hot summer! MORE, there is a catch, when you order the free trial you agree to sign in as a member which means a 30-day supply will be shipped 14 days after your trial supply has been shipped and 35.95 (plus P&P) will be billed to the credit card you provided!

I sent away for the week's trial. Only felt it working on the 2nd day. My energy levels did go up ALOT. I drink alot of water, plus I'm sweating alot. I have lost 6lbs in 6 days & yes I am encouraged to try another month just to see what happens. I admit I'm on the Coffeeslender too, which I started 2 days b4 the Pink Patches...however, I believe weightloss due 2 the Pinks.

Stop wasting your money and go buy them from healthrack they only cost �9.99 and they dont make the stupid over the top claims that the other site does. They also have a dedicated site where they sell a variety of trans-dermal patches from with proper info on how they work. And LOCKS obviously does NOT know much about how they work!
