What is Nuubu, and who makes it?
Nuubu Detox Foot Patches are adhesive pads you wear on the soles of your feet overnight. Each pack holds 10 patches, so one pack covers five nights if you use one on each foot, as the brand recommends.
The brand says the patches are inspired by traditional Asian wellness practices and lists loquat leaf, bamboo vinegar, wood vinegar, vitamin C, tourmaline, chitin, Houttuynia cordata and dextrin as ingredients. It says the patches help you sweat through the soles and support the body's natural way of removing toxins.
It's sold by Wellnova Solutions Inc (Franklin, Tennessee, USA). The brand's terms list this as the operator's office and say returns go to a fulfillment center, never to this address. They also say most goods are made in, and may ship from, China.
Who Nuubu suits, and who should skip it
A good fit for
- Adults who want a relaxing, low-effort bedtime ritual
- People curious to try a traditional foot-patch practice for themselves
- Anyone who prefers a routine with nothing to swallow
Skip it or ask a doctor first
- Anyone under 18
- People with broken, irritated or very sensitive skin on their feet
- Anyone allergic to a listed ingredient. Chitin is often made from shellfish shells, so ask the brand about its source if that matters to you.
- People with diabetes, poor circulation or reduced feeling in their feet, unless their doctor agrees
- Pregnant or nursing women, unless their doctor agrees
Made for a bedtime routine
Nuubu is pitched as a no-effort overnight habit: patch on at bedtime, peel off in the morning. The brand says the blend is plant-based and inspired by traditional Asian practices.

Ingredients, one by one
The brand doesn't publish the dose of each ingredient per serving. We list what each one is and what research says about it in general.

Dextrin
Loquat leaf

Wood vinegar
Sales pageThe same kind of liquid, made from wood instead of bamboo.

Houttuynia cordata
Sales pageA leafy herb used in Asian cooking and traditional herbal practice.

Does Nuubu work?
Nuubu's explanation is simple: the patch makes the covered skin sweat, and the brand says this supports the body's natural way of clearing toxins. It also says the pad turns darker as its vitamins and elements react with sweat, which it presents as the sign the patch is working.
We searched PubMed for studies of detox foot patches and found none, so there's no independent evidence yet that they remove toxins. The brand's own help center describes Nuubu as an addition to a healthy diet and active lifestyle, not a substitute for medical care.
Where buyers agree is the experience. Most of the recent Trustpilot reviews we read say the patches work for them, and several mention relief in their feet and legs or better sleep. If that nightly ritual appeals to you, a two-pack is enough for the brand's 10-night program.

How the refund really works
Return unused packs within 60 days of delivery for a refund. For a full refund, contact support within 14 days of delivery; after that the terms say extra fees may apply. Ask for a return authorization (RMA) first, and note that shipping costs aren't refunded.
Before you pay: The order page offers two choices. One-Time Purchase, which was selected when we checked, bills you once. Subscribe & Save lowers the price to $9.99 to $19.99 a pack, but repeats the same order every month at that price plus $4.95 shipping (for example $39.93 a month for two packs) until you cancel. To cancel, email support@nuubu.com or use the contact form; if that month's order has already shipped, the cancellation starts the following month.

How to order without surprises
Reorder before you run out
The shipping policy quotes 8 to 15 business days to the US, so order your next packs about two weeks before you finish the last one and keep the tracking email.
Apply it to a clean, dry sole
Press the soft side onto the middle of the sole, as the brand shows. Clean, dry feet and a snug pair of socks help it stay put overnight.
Pick One-Time Purchase to try it
Subscribe & Save repeats the order every month. Choose One-Time Purchase for a single order, or cancel by emailing support@nuubu.com before the next monthly charge.
Take a night off if your skin feels sore
Skip broken or irritated skin and pause if your foot feels sore. The brand suggests checking the ingredients against any allergies and asking your doctor if you take medication.

Nuubu FAQ
How do you use Nuubu patches?
Place one patch on the middle of each sole with the soft side against the skin, leave them on for 6 to 8 hours (the brand suggests overnight), then peel them off and wash your feet.
How many patches come in a pack?
Ten. With one patch on each foot per night, a pack lasts five nights, and a two-pack covers the brand's 10-night program.
Is Nuubu a subscription?
Only if you choose it. One-Time Purchase bills once. Subscribe & Save charges the same discounted price plus $4.95 shipping on the same date every month until you cancel. Cancel by emailing support@nuubu.com or through the contact form; a month that has already shipped still counts.
How much does Nuubu cost?
On November 9, 2026 the US store charged $33.33 for one pack, $24.99 each for two, $19.99 each for four and $16.49 each for six, plus shipping ($4.95 standard on the order we checked). With Subscribe & Save the same packs cost $19.99, $17.49, $12.49 and $9.99 each.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, for unused packs returned within 60 days of delivery. Contact support within 14 days for a full refund, since the terms say fees may apply after that. You'll need a return authorization first, and shipping costs aren't refunded.
Does Nuubu really remove toxins?
That's the brand's claim. We found no published studies of detox foot patches, and the brand says Nuubu isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Most buyers value it as a relaxing nightly ritual.
Does Nuubu have side effects?
The brand doesn't list any, and we found no published safety studies of detox foot patches. Because each pad sticks to your skin for 6 to 8 hours, the most likely problem is irritation or an allergic rash: MedlinePlus lists adhesives among the common causes of allergic contact dermatitis. Use the patches only on healthy, unbroken skin, and if your soles turn red, itchy or blistered, stop and wash the area; see a doctor if the reaction is severe or doesn't improve. The pads contain chitin, which is often made from shellfish shells, so ask the brand about its source if you have a shellfish allergy. If you have diabetes or reduced feeling in your feet, ask your doctor first: the NIDDK explains that nerve damage can keep you from feeling a blister or sore, and advises checking your feet every day.
Why does the patch turn dark?
The brand says the vitamins and elements in the pad react with sweat and darken it, and that the patch should look visibly darker after use.
What are the most common Nuubu complaints?
Most recent buyers are happy: 79% of the 4,672 Trustpilot reviews give four or five stars. In the 20 latest reviews we read, the points that came up most were practical: waiting longer than expected for a reorder (2 of 20), a patch that didn't stay in place (1 of 20), recurring charges they didn't expect (1 of 20), a sore foot after use (1 of 20). The shipping policy quotes 8 to 15 business days to the US, so order your next packs about two weeks before you finish the last one and keep the tracking email.
How do I contact Nuubu customer service?
Use the support page on the official Nuubu website and have your order number ready. The company behind the store is Wellnova Solutions Inc (Franklin, Tennessee, USA). For a refund, ask support for the return instructions before sending anything back.
Is there a Nuubu discount code?
The official store puts its discount in the packs. On November 9, 2026, the 6-pack pack cost $16.49 per pack, 51% below the store's crossed-out price of $33.33. If you try a code from another site, make sure you're still on the brand's own checkout, because the store's 60-day return policy only covers orders placed there.
