I was quite impressed with this product and did notice a difference. You can see what the strips have pulled out so there is actual evidence that they work. The only problem i find it that they dont get everything out and often there are still blocked pores around the side of the nose. But I suppose nothing is perfect. Dont over use this product as it tends to dry out the skin!

I am conflicted with this products because on the one hand, I love this product and it is a staple in my make up bag and my medicine cabinet. On the other hand, I find it extremely pricey. Even with the coupons it is too expensive. I only buy it when it is on clearance at Walmart.

It is very effective in removing the clogged pores on my top of my nose and around my nostrils. I do not have blackheads so I cannot comment on its removal of that. But its effectiveness is as good as you apply it. You have to apply it well and make sure that it is completely dry and hard before you remove it. I also peel it off fairly slow. If I follow my directions the nose strip is very effective.

- get rids of blackheads (but it'll come back)
- after using it, you should use a clanser or toner.
- it's so pricey now. best place to get it is wal-mart.

I liked this product! Its like making a paper mache on your nose! If used wrong or too frequently though it won't work well! I also suggest putting lots of water on your nose and pushing the paper firmly in place for at least 2 minutes after the application. I always leave it on for at least 20 minutes or until I feel like the paper could crack off my nose. Also, read the instructions carefully and never put water on the sides of your nose or cheek because trust me, it stings!! It's usually hard to tell if it worked until you lift the paper in light, which I find gross but I definitely noticed a difference after my makeup application the next morning! I would only recommend this product to someone who uses it frequently enough otherwise it would be a complete waste of money.
