Pros:

Easy to use

Cons:

Doesn't work!

It just doesn't work. It's a waste of money. Invest your money in something else.

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!!

no pros.

Cons:

this is not a good product.

Pros:

After using the strips, it leaves your nose feeling A LOT less bumpy and really smooth

Cons:

You have to make sure that your nose isn't oily and is clean and wet enough for the strips to work. Otherwise, the strips won't stick well and once you take it off to reapply it, it won't stick again.

It is a bit pricey but I think it's definitely worth it. Just make sure peel it off slowly and try not to move your nose around because then it won't stick as well as it should. Also, try and use it in moderation because it's pricey: I used it once every week or so or whenever it got pretty bad.

Pros:

Removed some blackheads but not all. Even though the directions say otherwise, it also helps make large pimples smaller.

Cons:

Only removes a few blackheads, not all of them

Try it. It works allright and will make your pores slightly smaller for about a day

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:

Getting the blackheads out!

Cons:

PRICE!

Works great! If you only pull facial hair from your forehead and chin then that means you have no deep down dirt there. DUH...common sense.

Pros:

Removes some blackheads

Cons:

Doesn't get a lot of them, kinda tricky to perfect the technique on certain parts of the face

They're expensive and a little bit hard to use but it is very satisfying to look at the strip afterwards and see blackheads that are no longer in your skin
