Hero Cosmetics Nose Large Hydrocolloid Pore Strips, 10 Ct

These things are incredible! The blemish patches are equally amazing and when you have cystic acne or can feel something is under the skin but it won't pop - these will bring it right to the surface. I almost gave it 4 stars because I still had several blackheads, but I have yet to find ANY blackhead removal that gets rid of everything... So all things considered, these still take the cake. Pros: - brings what's under the skin up to the surface, and because the strips are clear you can see it working after 6-8 hours - very thin and flexible, so there's zero discomfort and doesn't feel like anything is on your face (like blackhead strips that become hard after application) - easy and painless to remove - it works, and seeing everything that has come out of your pores is gross and extremely satisfying... to me anyway. :-) Cons: - application is a bit trickier than with the blemish patches. It's supposed to stick to your nose when you peel the plastic off, but my experience every time has been that the strip comes off with it. Once removed, it doesn't adhere quite as well... so you have to kind have to scrape it off the plastic to apply, which causes the strip to fold a bit at the edge. Not a big problem for me. - doesn't stick to the sides of my nose. I thought it would because the material is so thin and flexible, but because your nostrils move when breathing through your nose, the strip lifts up (for me, though all noses are different and some may have no problem at all). See picture #2. - doesn't remove everything. As previously mentioned, I've yet to find a blackhead removal strip from any brand that removes everything. So that being said, this isn't really a "con" so much as a disclaimer to lower your expectation, if you're expecting a miracle remedy that will leave you 100% blackhead/blemish free. It doesn't exist. Overall, I think it is a GREAT product and absolutely worth it for the price! If your expectations are realistic, you will not be disappointed. I recommend buying these over regular biore/other brand pore strips, 💯 👍🏼.

This is the first time using these nose strips. This product is amazing. The application is easy and works on sensitive skin. I was shocked at how much came from my nose. So much better than traditional nose strips because it gets in the sides of your nose much better.

I had doubts about this product but it really does work well! Pro tip though the packaging and pulling the backside plastic off your nose really is as difficult as people say it is! You need to slightly peel the sides before you actually apply it to your face so when you do put it on your not struggling super hard to peel off the backing. Really good product though stayed on all night while I was sleeping and I removed it and oh boy my pores look clear for the first time in months and the strip was caked in oil. Just keep in mind this won't pull out any black heads. So you need to use a blackhead mask before you use and should throughly clean your nose with a cleanser for it to work properly. Saw other reviews saying it doesn't sit in the crease of your nose and initially it won't if you just put it on quick but if you just slightly peel it back up after applying and press into the crevasse it will sit firm on your nose. My only real complaint is peeling the backing and that if you don't start from the middle when applying and work your way out you may get small air bubbles where it won't sit on your nose I had to poke a small hole in it to get the air out so I wouldn't have to reapply the whole thing. Overall does as it should and work super well. For someone who has been struggling to clear his nose pores this saved me! Will be buying again.

I really enjoyed using the Biore nose strips because they physically removed sebaceous filaments and potential blackheads. However, I learned that these strips may not be recommended as their adhesive can strip more than just dirt, potentially causing trauma to the skin. When I discovered that Mighty Patches also offers nose strips, I decided to give them a try. I have had success with their whitehead patch, so I was hopeful that their nose strips would work well for me too. Following the instructions, I did encounter some difficulty removing the stiffer plastic layer at first, but eventually got the hang of it. Applying the strips was straightforward, but I did notice that if they got stuck together, separating them was quite challenging. Unfortunately, during my first attempt, the strips started to stretch in all directions instead of adhering properly, so I had to give up. On the bright side, the strips are clear and not very noticeable from a distance, which I appreciate, just like their pimple patch. The next morning, removing the strip was much easier compared to the Biore nose strip. My skin near the strips was wrinkled, so it seemed like the nose strip had shrunk when I was sleeping. I did have some wrinkles on my cheeks, but those flattened after 10-15 minutes. I also noticed some white "gunk" on the strip. Although it wasn't as satisfying as the Biore strip, it did reduce the size of the pores on my nose. I have a very oily t-zone, so I'm always concerned about the oiliness of my nose. However, after using this strip, I no longer felt the oil on my nose throughout the day. Even after checking my nose constantly, I didn't experience any oiliness. After a week or two, I realized that the pore-shrinking and reduction in blackheads was only temporary. However, I believe it's still worth using if you have a special occasion coming up.

I have medium skin. Not overly oily. Ive been using the smaller spot ones for ages, always once a month (ladies know why) I get deeper cystic acne in my T zone and side of my chin. They are wonderful to spot treat. So I purchased this because I have small blackheads on my chin and nose. I wash ny face. And dry it. Then adhere these. I sleep with one on my chin / noise/ or T zone maybe once a week. My pores shrink significantly and are much less visible. I have way less small zits or white heads after working a 10 hour day. They really do work. The only cons are that they will dry you out a bit so wash your face after and lightly hydrate and maybe exfoliate a bit. Also the nose pieces never adhere to the sides of my nose as well as the top. Outside of that, for smaller pores these patches can’t be beat. Well worth the investment for general maintenance. I recommend using them weekly or twice a month for work schedule changes, any shift in gym routine or before big events.

Great idea and potential but terrible execution. The plastic backing sticks to the product more than your face so it’s near impossible to remove without removing the whole thing. And there’s cutouts on the product to fit the contours of the nose but not on the backing, making the cutouts useless. Now out of the few I’ve gotten to work, the results are amazing. My nose is clear and you can really see the results, but I think the stress of the application caused more pimples than it removed.

It's comfortable to sleep on. It doesn't irritate the skin and it really cleans the pores.

I now know why it’s called Hero. I finally convinced my husband to use the mighty patch hero, and wow what a difference a patch makes. The evidence of effectiveness was on the patch, he was amazed with the results.

No son exactamente lo que mi esposa quiere

ممتاز

I feel its pulls out all the oil

My nose feels and looks amazing after using this. I put it on before bed. Just make sure not to sleep for more than 8 hours and you’re good.

I gave as much as three stars because I did not exfoliate before putting it on and because I left it on for 6 hours rather than overnight. Apart from some minimal amount of smoothing I did not see much difference with this product.
