Pros Removes a considerable amount of blackheads
Easy to use
Quick
You can see the blackheads afterwards
Cons It doesn't work if you use it more than 2 times a week
May hurt when you pull the strip off
Doesn't remove all of your blackheads
A bit expensive
Bottom line I love Biore Pore Strips! I use them twice a week. The instructions say to wait at least 3 days before using the strips again. You can use them more often, but only a few blackheads will be removed, and I don't think it's worth the money. I have a TON of blackheads, and the pore strips can usually get off 25% of my blackheads, which i think is pretty good. :) My favourite part about using them is looking at all the gross little blackheads! It's actually quite a good feeling. Like winning a battle in the war against blackheads. Lol. Occasionally, it will hurt when you take it off. Just dab a little water on the trouble area, and you should be fine. I try to use them after showering, so my pores are open. Steaming your face should be fine too. I spritz my nose a couple of times with a spray bottle, so that i can get water everywhere. Then I quickly put the strip on. Gently pat down the strip, and make sure it is reaching the creases of your nose. Try not to move your face too much, and keep it on for 15 minutes.
It is kind of expensive, and after buying it a couple of times at wal mart, I found out Costco was selling them! It is A LOT cheaper at costco, and they sell them in boxes of 2.

Pros Removes some blackheads
Needs to be applied right after the shower when pores on the nose are open
Cons Doesn't completely remove blackheads but regular use does make them less
Bottom line Its better to have atleast some blackheads removed and is better than using steam and scrubs as it doesn't disturb the skin that much

Pros Easy application.
Removes most blackheads.
Nice smell.
Leaves skin feeling very soft.
You can see how much gunk got removed!
Cons Doesn't get rid of all blackhead.
Bottom line Would definitely recommend it. I had so many blackheads that completely covered my nose. I used this product twice already and it got many of the blackheads. There are only a few ones left that weren't ready to come out.

People who said they had trouble with it weren't using it right! I took a long and hot shower, and I washed my face while in the shower. Then I got out, quickly dried off my hands, and applied the strip while my nose was still wet. I waited about 15 minutes and peeled it off slowly. It hurt a little bit, but honestly there's no way to remove blackheads without pain. It left some residue but that washed off very quickly with water.
Price paid $7.49

Pros * immediate results
* skin is instantly smoother
Cons * can be tricky to get the hang of
* pinches the skin slightly
* does not get all of the blackheads
Bottom line This product is a good addition to a skin care regimen. After I first used it, I was so surprised by how soft my nose felt. It's a shame the strips are not bigger. It did get a noticeable amount of blackheads and build-up off my skin, which is a relief. It kind of grosses you out knowing that junk was all up on your nose! Unfortunately, there are some downsides to the pore strips. While it does remove *some* of the blackheads from your nose, it does not remove them all. For me, it didn't even remove a majority of them, just a portion (even though I made sure to follow all directions and use the pore strips properly). That was a little disappointing, but it's better than not getting any removed at all. Also, it takes some time to do it right. You should wait 15 minutes for maximum effect, and depending on your schedule, that could be a bother. The strips do "pinch" a bit when you're removing them (if you did it right!) but it's nothing you can't handle. None of my skin was ripped or torn off, thankfully. If you can handle tweezing, you can handle this. That all being said, I think it's a pretty decent product. I recommend using a toner afterwards since your pores are clearer.
