Pros:

It certainly pulled out plenty of the gunk in my pores on my nose, which was nice, since I had many blackheads.

Cons:

It seemed to be unable to help some of the more stubborn blackheads, and they're kinda pricey. The tingling sensation was mildly alarming, but not painful or anything.

A good product, but a bit pricey overall. Granted, you are not supposed to use the strips more than once a week, and I've found that I could go about two weeks before I needed to use a strip again. So, while a bit pricey, a box strips can last for several months (generally 2-3), the price actually doesn't seem as horrid as it does at first glance. It was also very effective.

Pros:

Definitely took a lot out. After one use, I was hooked. Reduced the look of pores, etc.

Cons:

Somewhat expensive, adding onto 500 other things you "need" to buy. And, generally, the tingling part really bothered me. Getting the strip on was sort of a pain at times.

The pores on my nose seem to be the largest- and this definitely seemed to help for a while. I ended up quitting this product, only because of the expense.

Pros:

It works for me.

Cons:

none

I started noticing blackheads in my noise when i was a kid. My father would yell at me to wash my face. Which i did very often. Anyhow in later life i tried these. They were great for me. The first time i used them it pulled lots of stuff out. They pulled one chunck out that left a small hole which blead all day. But that did heal and i haven't experanced since. I use them once a month and make sure to wash that sticky resadue off that's left behind.

Pros:

It's so satisfying to see gunk from your skin on a little strip of papier-mâché. While you're carefully pulling it off your mind is chanting "Out with the bad"

Cons:

A little expensive. You really don't want to the application because of the price. And it can take up to half an hour for the strip to dry if your climat is damp.

It's enjoyable, but pricy. Try it out. The strips for the nose work the best. Chin, forehead and cheeks... not so much. I use a mild astringent afterwards because your pores are even more susceptible to oil, grime build up now that they are super exposed. An astringent will tighten them up and prevent that. Mind the light burning sensation.

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.

Pros:

This product works instantly.

Cons:

It's a bit pricey.

This product is definitly worth the price. It is very easy to put it on, simply wet the area, and stick it on. I like to press it down with a hand-towel in order for it to work the best and ensure the best contact with my skin. Then just wait 10 minutes if you have normal blackheads; 15 minutes for bad blackheads. I reccomend you rip it off slowly; as if you would with a band-aid. Keep in mind that: 1. it feels very satisfying to see what comes off on the strip, as gross as that sounds. 2. Many people claim that you have bigger blackheads after use, but this is an illusion-- its only because you are used to having them so un-clogged. so just use another one and you can always be clean! 3. Use a light high-high quality moisterizer afterwards. 4. they work best on nose and forehead- chin is such a diffucult area to reach! 5. LASTLY, if you have really bad blackheads, they also come in biore ULTRA deep cleansing pore strips for your nose. ENJOY! biore products rock!

Pros:

When used correctly, they do get the crap out of your nosepores.

Cons:

The nose strips should really be a bit wider; i always end up missing either the tip of my nose or the blackheady areas next to the bridge of my nose. These things are also kind of expensive, and it takes a bit to get a feel for using them.

When used properly and regularly, they will help you get rid of most of your blackheads. Those who've recommended letting the strips fully dry are correct - you can't shortcut the process. Also, you shouldn't just rip the things off - pull slowly and carefully.
