I am obsessed with Biore Pore Strips, and I love using them. Is is so satisfying to peel the strip off my nose, and it leaves my pores clean and free of any dirt or blackheads. This is a great beauty product to add into your skin cleansing regime, and it works very effectively.
I like these they do pull out the blackheads, once in a while I will buy these to get excess oil, blackheads, and dirt out from the pores in my nose. I tried making my own one time but failed lol, stick to these ones, leave on until completely dry!!!!
I've tried this product so many times and every time I've been disappointed. It does absolutely nothing for me or my blackheads, even after steaming my face a few times before using these. The price is usually 8-12.00$ where I live and it's ridiculous especially for a product that doesn't work.
I expected more from these. Being the Ultra strong ones, they should work better than the regular Biore strips, but in my opinion the original actually did more for my nose. Every few years I catch sight of my massive gross blackheads in the mirror and go back to Biore, thinking my original opinion is wrong.
Well, it wasn't. Sure, these take a couple of the surface blackheads out, but despite weekly (and sometimes slightly more) use for months, I see little to no improvement. On top of which they peel some of the nose skin off and leave it looking worse.
Then I read that they can cause varicose veins over long term use. Well, I'm done using them. For that reason I would not recommend these. Does nothing for a bad blackhead problem.
Pros
- Takes out a few blackheads.
Cons
- No improvement over time.
- Damages skin.
- Can cause varicose veins over long term use.
- Ultra are not as effective as the regular.

I love using pore strips. My blackheads are always removed when I use this product. Its very simple to use and very effective. I like to use them at least once a month, or whenever I feel like pampering myself. If you have blackheads I definitely recommend this product.
I love using Biore pore strips! i have a lot of blackheads on my nose, cheeks, and forehead and this has made a big difference in their size and appearance. I use them about once a week for the last few months and I'm pretty happy with the results. You can see the results right on the strip when you peel it off! I love the feeling of it knowing that all the dirt it coming out. I do find them to be a bit pricey especially for the pack of 6 or 8 so when they go on sale I tend to buy a few packs. I would recommend this for sure for those with stubborn blackheads.
I have a love/hate relationship with these pore strips. I don't like how they feel as you sit and wait for them to dry...it makes my skin feel tight and yucky. I also hate how painful they can be to remove. But, I do love how much better my pores look after using them once a week for about 6 weeks. They truly do clean out problem pores and make them look much smaller. I do wonder if they damage your skin when peeling them off though. I will have to research that.
I have missed feelings about this product. They are fun and do remove its of blackheads, however, I find that they are not as effective as I would like them to be.
These strips are awesome! I tried them years ago when they came out and they work! My Step-Daughter now uses them. They are a bit expensive but they definitely work and are worth it. When they go on sale, stock up!
I would probably recommend this to people who are looking to try a nose strip for them pesky blackheads. Bioré is a little expensive for the quantity you get but it is what it is. Overall, I think this nose strip does work. It doesn't really do that much for me but I will use it every now and then. As gross as it might sound, the most satisfying part is peeling off the nose strip and looking at all the nasty gunk your nose strip picked up from your nose.
Do not forget to wash your nose with cold water a couple of times, to close your pores after using the strip. All in all, I might not purchase the nose strip again but I think I will expand and try out this charcoal line that Bioré has going on
pros: removes (some) blackheads, any other gunk on your nose, easy to use, clear instructions
cons: may be a bit pricey for some people, does not remove everything
