Wash it off.

We got tired of eyeblack that outlasted the game. So we made one that doesn't. Swipe it on, play your heart out, splash it off with plain water.

01 / About

Why we made this

Oknaus started at a bathroom sink at 9:40 on a school night, scrubbing stubborn grease off a tired kid's face. There had to be a better way — so we built it. Eyeblack that holds through sweat and sun, treats your skin like a friend, and leaves the moment you ask it to. No makeup remover, no stained towels, no drama.

— Justin, founder of OKNAUS

02 / How It Works

Three Moves

1 Swipe It On

One clean stroke under each eye. No greasy fingers, no crumbling.

2 Play Hard

Sweat-proof and sun-tough for the whole game. It stays sharp until you're done.

3 Rinse It Off

Splash, wipe, done. Plain water takes it all off in seconds.

04 / FAQ

Questions

Will it really come off with just water?

Yes, really. Splash your face or run a wet towel over it and Oknaus lifts away in seconds. We've timed it — it's faster than untying your cleats.

Then does sweat wash it off mid-game?

No. The formula releases with direct rinsing, not perspiration. It's held through August doubleheaders; it'll hold through yours.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

It's gentle and non-comedogenic — we wear it on our own faces and our kids'. As with anything new, patch-test first if your skin is reactive.

What sports is it for?

Anywhere you'd wear eyeblack: baseball, softball, football, lacrosse, soccer — or the stands, honestly. Game faces aren't just for players.

How is it eco friendly?

The stick and carton are recyclable, the formula skips the petroleum grease, and since water takes it off, there are no single-use remover wipes in your trash.
