The Evidence Ladder
No claim outruns its Rung
Five rungs stand between an ingredient and a claim we are allowed to make about the finished product. Every Formula climbs in public, on this page, dated when a Rung is reached. Today, none has. That is the honest starting line.
01
Formulation
The formula is stable and safe in the lab, as a finished product.
02
Release
The active measurably leaves the finished design, as worn.
03
Permeation
The active measurably passes the skin barrier in a wearable quantity.
04
Exposure
The active reaches a meaningful level in the body, over a defined wear.
05
Outcome
The finished product shows the outcome in people. Only here do we claim.
The Formulas, today
One Formula per Need. Rung data comes from the lab and the founder, and it goes on this page the day it is confirmed — reached or not reached.
| Code | What we are researching | Rung reached | Date reached |
|---|---|---|---|
| /E ENERGY | Whether caffeine can be released through the skin at a steady, wearable rate. | In the lab | — |
| /P PEACE | Whether magnesium can be carried by the finished patch, as sold, not as an ingredient. | In the lab | — |
| /G GLOW | Whether vitamin C can be stabilised in the finished design for a defined wear. | In the lab | — |
| /B B12 | Whether B12 can pass the skin barrier in a wearable quantity. The honest answer today: unknown. | In the lab | — |
| /R RECOVER | Whether a cooling active can be dosed for skin contact without irritation, over 8 hours. | In the lab | — |
| /S SLEEP | Whether a wearable could ever carry melatonin responsibly. Regulatory check first. | Regulatory check first | — |
Nothing is proven yet. You can still choose the design you want to wear.
