Pros:

Gets a significant amount of blackheads out! Very nice for those who need a dose of instant gratification.

Cons:

Like many previous reviews -the cost. But, if used weekly, the cost isn't so bad.

I know it's gross - but it's kinda fun and interesting to see what nasties are in my pores. I do encourage those who use it to really wet your skin before applying and once applied, smooth the strip down with your fingertips. After rinsing, it's a must to use a high quality moisturizer. I apply my Clenia emmolient afterwards. The strips wont permanantly get rid of blackheads but if used as part of your acne arsenal, you will happy with the results!!

Pros:

Instant gratification

Cons:

Somewhat drying to skin

It is good for getting blackheads out of your nose, but you can't use it when your skin is chapped or you have a zit on the area you want to use it on. Personally I like the product, but wish the strips were bigger.

Pros:

works really well but it took some time for me to learn how to use them properly. from what i read, bad for pple who have spider veins, facial hair or redness in face

Cons:

there is a trick to using them, depending on your skin. will tear skin if it is thin, has a cut or inflammed. has to be used on perfectly healthy skin.

i have pretty bad blackheads on my nose. pretty stubborn. first time i used the ultra strips, nothing came out - i didn't wet them enough. so i wet them more and they became ineffective because i took them out before they were COMPLETELY dry. so this is what works for me (i have no facial hair, no spider veins, pretty tough skin and deep bad blackheads): i enlarge my pore with a hot shower, i mask with body shop s blue corn mask to soften my blackheads (hafta wait till completely dry), i was with warm/hot water, i wet my nose slightly, i wet the strip slightly, i stick it on. i let it dry completely and peel it off SLOWLY (do not rip it off). i get the rest of the blackheads with origin's modern friction and finish off with a toner to close my pores. it is a complete regimen that takes abt 30 mins but it works the best for me. i do this once a week or once every 2 weeks. sometimes once a month if i am busy. the pore strips do not work for me any other way.

Pros:

Got out the black heads

Cons:

Also ripped out the hairs on my nose which is causing for my nose to grow longer hairs everywhere

Dont use these strips unless you want a hairy nose

Pros:

Ultra strips are amazing!!! They get so much yuck out!

Cons:

The regular strips don't work as well. In my experience, the regular strips get about 1/10 the amount out...literally.

I've been using Biore strips for years. I bought a bunch on ebay...thinking they were Ultra. They're regular. They don't work at all for me. (In all fairness, they could be older or bad batches???) However, the Ultra is worth the cost.

Pros:

I just used this product for the first time today and WOW I can't believe all that gross stuff was in MY nose!!! It is truly amazing. It is at least worth buying once as a fun science experiment. Long term who knows? Wheeee!!!

Cons:

Slightly painful. Nothing too major, though. Left my nose a little bit raw with a strange and sort of unpleasant tingling afterwards for about 15 minutes. Again nothing major, but an odd sensation.

Recommend you try it. Can't give an opinion on long term use because I've only used it once. Planning on using it again.

These rip out your sebaceous filaments. Those aren't acne. Haha, they'll just fill right up again!
