Here's the best way to remove the backing on your mouth tape:

  1. Hold the tape at both ends and pull it apart down the center. There's a perforation running through the middle, you're splitting along that line.
  2. Once the center is split, you'll have two halves with the backing separated. Peel the backing off slowly, one side at a time like a bandaid.
  3. Center the tape over your lips and apply. Press firmly along the edges to make sure it stays put all night.
