BREAKING: The innovative wellness brand Half Past 8 has just launched its line of transdermal wellness patches, now available direct-to-consumer and at Printemps in New York City. This groundbreaking brand is set to disrupt the supplement market with three unique patches targeting modern consumers’ health challenges.
The patches, priced at $52 each, include Deep Sleep, infused with melatonin and L-theanine to promote restful sleep; Energy & Focus, designed for a sustained energy boost without the crash; and Stress & Mood, formulated to support healthy cortisol levels with St. John’s wort and B-vitamins.
“Our lives changed dramatically after our son was born,” said co-founder Meto, who previously operated a private training gym in Los Angeles. “We struggled with less sleep and higher stress, leading us to seek a more manageable approach to wellness.” His partner, Kyle Pierce, added, “We aimed to simplify wellness, making it modern and aesthetically pleasing.”
These patches utilize advanced transdermal technology, releasing ingredients directly into the bloodstream over an eight-hour period. This method avoids the digestive issues that often reduce the effectiveness of traditional supplements like pills and gummies. “Consumers often double or triple doses of melatonin because of poor absorption through digestion,” Kyle explained. “With our patches, users can accurately receive effective dosages.”
Testing has shown promising results, with users reporting significant improvements in their sleep and energy levels as monitored by devices like Oura rings and Whoop fitness trackers. “Word of mouth has been a powerful tool for us,” Kyle mentioned, noting the support from clients at Meto’s gym who have been testing the patches extensively.
The duo is now turning to digital platforms for outreach, focusing on educational content about the efficacy of their patches. “Trend forecasts indicate that patches will become a major trend in wellness and beauty over the next five years,” Kyle stated. “We aim to lead this market in the U.S.”
Looking ahead, Half Past 8 plans to expand its product line, including a weight management patch expected to launch in early 2026. “Our goal is to create wellness solutions that seamlessly fit into busy lifestyles,” Kyle said, hinting at future products that could range from convenient mints to other innovative formats.
With the launch of Half Past 8, consumers now have access to a modern, effective approach to wellness that aligns with their fast-paced lives. As the demand for alternative health solutions grows, this brand is poised to become a significant player in the wellness industry.
Stay tuned for more updates on Half Past 8 and its expanding product offerings as they aim to redefine wellness for a new generation.
