Advantages: Gets those nasty blackheads Disadvantages: I only had one as a tester so none yet
...site and I saw this, biore ultra nose strips, it also had with it the shine control moisuriser. So I clicked on it and totaly forgot it should be in the post, well it did arrive wich is a bit unusual, and last night while my partner was playing the computer i decided to give it a go.
__Packaging__ As I said it was a freebie so one single strip in a silver packet sealed for freshness, with all the instructions and diagrams you may need for this application ... ...real thing looks like but i will add this when I have bought one.
__smell__
As I opened the packet a huge whiff of anticeptic hit me but as it calmed down i reacon you could almost say it smelt like t-tree or menthol.
__How do I use them__
Remove the strip from the pouch. Twist to loosen and separate the slits prior to use, it has small slits in to make sure it fits any nose in any shape or form.
After washing your face, thoroughly wet your ...

...sore nose. Then I discovered Biore Pore Strips and I've been totally converted.
The box I have has a slightly different appearance to that shown next to this opinion so it may have been repackaged. The box is rectangular and is mainly white with a purple strip down the right hand side. It says "Biore Cleanse" and then underneath "Ultra deep cleansing PORE STRIPS. Maximum pore cleansing power removes clogged dirt and oil while diminishing appearance ... ...the back it says: Biore Ultra deep cleansing nose strips offer maximum pore cleansing power, instantly removing clogged dirt and oil. With regular use, they also diminish the appearance of pores. Formulated with tea trea oil, the strips leave normal-to-oily pores squeaky clean. You can feel them working as they clean away pore-clogging dirt better than other pore strips. Only Biore deep cleansing strips have the Pore Target System that seeks out ...

Advantages: Seemed to pull out trapped oil and cells, made skin feel softer, fitted well Disadvantages: Expensive! Didn't make any visible reduction to my blackheads
...week, I decided to purchase Biore Pore Perfect Ultra Deep Cleaning nose strips (same product to this but it has different packaging) from Superdrug for £7.98 which is a bit pricey but I thought, why not give it a go? Why I bought it -
Blackheads have always been a problem to me - I have tried blackhead scrubs in the past but it hasn't been successful. What drew me into buying these strips was the shape of them. They seemed to cover the whole area ... ...the shop that only covered along the top of the nose.
Packaging -
Once I got home, I opened the box right away. The design of the box (different to the one shown on this site) is green and looked fresh and appealing. Inside, the box contains six nose strips, each individually wrapped in shiny foil like packaging. When you open these individual wrappers, the nose strip is inside, one side attached to a clear plastic liner.
How to use -
There are ...

Advantages: Bigger strips! Disadvantages: 1 of 6 will be a dud!
I have used Biore Pore Perfect Strips in the past, and although they worked half the time, they generally didn't remove all the dirt & oil from my nose. I attributed it to the size of the strips. Where they were placed, they really did a semi-good job of removing any excess dirt & oil and opened up clogged pores. But overall I wasn't completely satisfied so I put them on the shelf. Biore has changed their Pore cleansing line a bit, Biore Pore Perfect ... ...Packaging: Each box has 6 strips that are individually wrapped. The strip is similar to a band aid, remove the backing and place upon your nose. They come in a regular box, which keeps the price to a minimum unlike other brands. Boasts: *Weekly treatment to refine pores & removes dirt & oil. Regular use diminishes the appearance of pores. The "Pore Target System" seeks out dirt & pore-clogging material them away like a magnet. Hypoallergenic; Dermatologist ...

Advantages: Does draw out minor impurities. Disadvantages: Doesn't really work on blackheads, harsh on the skin.
...hence the sceptism)
However, Biore have been working on their packaging and are slowing releasing the ones with the new packaging, and hence, the old packaged ones are on special promotion for £4.99 ! Still a bit pricey, I think, but if they really work, I suppose they would be worth the £7.99 in the long run. And so I bought them...
Followed their exact instructions, pat water on the pre-cleaned area that is to be treated (nose area), and then ... ...about 10 minutes, but I left mine on for about 20 (to make up for the really stubborn blackheads...).
But no, unfortunately, it just wasn't as effective as I had hoped. When I pulled the strip away, you could see some of the 'gunk' that it had drawn out but these were more from the less problematic areas - most of my blackheads were still there....
I put this down to my blackheads being really stubborn, so of course, I gave it more tries a few ...

Advantages: You can see the results on the strip so know it's worked! Disadvantages: Not a miracle worker!
These strips are something I always like to have in my bathroom cabinet and no pampering evening is complete without them. I\'ve been using them for several years now - not as regularly as I should though as I keep forgetting about them (hence why the box I have is different packaging to this picture, I think mine is at least 12 months old).
My skin is textbook combination, with dry cheeks and a t-zone prone to blackheads and the odd spot. I try ... ...Clinique regime (again when I remember) and all in one wipes (biore) when I can\'t be bothered! More strictly I do like to use a face mask once per week (biore).
The instructions are really comprehensive, making it impossible to go wrong. They\'re also written on each of the strips as well as the box, which is useful. Each strip comes individually wrapped in a foil packet to keep it fresh. I like to have a hot bath and face mask to open my pores ...

Advantages: you see the results straight away Disadvantages: not much difference between the Ultra and the original strips
...up yet. I have used Biore in the past with good results so when I saw the Ultra strips promising better results it had to be worth a try. You still use them in the same way, wet your nose and apply. You leave them for 10 minutes then slowly pull off to see the results before your eyes. Its quite rewarding seeing those revolting black heads having been removed (well it is for me). I must admit I couldnt see a major difference between the two strips ...

Advantages: pulls out blackheads and dirts without leaving scars or causing inflammation Disadvantages: a bit pricey
I started using this product a few years ago when i was still living in Asia. To be honest, i was very shocked by the selling price over here. The price back in Asia is about 1/3 of the price sold here.
Anyway, i like this little miracle sticky product. The application is easy. Wet your nose ( yeah, wet your nose), then peel off the nose strip, place it over your nose. The best way to apply it is to start at the tip of your nose, press it firmly ... ...get rid of the air bubbles that might trap within the strip. After leaving it for 10 minutes ( I prefer to leave it until the strip dries out and a bit harden, because 'the pulling power' will be a bit stronger), pull it off, then, you can see the blackheads and other trapped dirt all come out! Excellent! The best way to clean and clear blackheads without leaving scars or causing any possible inflammation.
Since it is a bit expensive, i would recomend ...

Advantages: Does what it says it does Disadvantages: not many in the pack
I have tried this once and was amazed how many disgusting blackheads were stuck to the strip when I peeled it off. All the intructions were given in easy steps on each individual wrapper.
After wetting the area and placing the strip over my nose I waited for 10 minutes until it was hard. My face did feel a bit tight as it was drying, which was to be expected.I did need to use a moisturiser after using the strip as it left me face a bit dry. I also ...
