I was hesitant to try this as I didn't feel it was effective but my nose felt so soft right after! Definitely recommend it! #topbox #trywithtopbox

I have received this as a #freeproduct from #trywithtopbox. I must say this product has VERY POSITIVELY surprised me with its efficiency. It is packed with adsorbents (polyquaternium-37, silica, aluminium oxide) that have been included into a rubbery polymer matrix (polysilicone-13, PEG-12). Such a combination is called a mixed-matrix membrane. What that means is that there are two different families of active ingredients in these strips. On one side, you get the effect of the adsorbent, the same effect you would get using your favorite clay mask, while also adding the effect of the rubbery polymer matrix that will suck all the sebaceous filaments out of your pores by forming a concentration gradient (more sebaceous filaments on your face, no sebaceous filaments on the strips – so the rubbery polymer pulls the sebaceous filaments right onto the strips). And Good Lord do Bioré's Face Deep Cleansing Strips suck the sebaceous filaments right out of your pores WITHOUT HURTING THE LEAST BIT! The strips do pull at your skin, but peel off easily without leaving the skin feeling irritated, or even very dry. But what is truly the best about these strips is that even if you only have dilated pores without any visible sebaceous filaments, they will still surprise you by pulling out unsuspected gunk in the most dramatic fashion. I never imagined my face was so full of it. I almost fainted seeing how covered the first strip was. The only two downsides to these that I can think of is the fact that to optimize efficiency, there needs to be constant contact between the skin and the strip. However, as the strip dries on previously moistened skin and takes the desired papier maché consistency, it tends to lose contact with the skin in irregular areas. I had astounding success with these strips on cheeks and chin but less so on my forehead that has a sort of ridge in the middle of the forehead (what we call a metopic ridge). The strip would lose contact with the skin around that ridge after a few minutes and before the strip was ready to be removed. Another downside I could think of are the average-sized strips. I would need to use six out of the eight in the box to cover my forehead.

I got this #freesample from #trywithtopbox and was really excited to test them out! I've used Bioré's nose strips in the past, and wasn't expecting anything quite different than the nose strips. However, there are some noticeable differences. First off, I liked that they were straight. It made it easy to cut them into whatever size I wanted, and to put it on any area of my face (I chose my forehead, top of my nose, and on the area on my cheek that is right beside my nose). They were not uncomfortable, and actually removed really well too! However, I am only giving these 4 stars because they didn't stick too well on rounded surfaces, like my cheek area. As well, they didn't seem to pull off as much compared to the nose strips. However, they were more gentle. I believe if I used this pore strip on my nose, I would see a similar result to the nose strips. Overall, I think these are worth the buy - they are a better shape for your face and easy enough to cut. Just be sure to thoroughly wet the area you apply them because that's what led to issues with unsticking in certain areas for me.

Bioré is the first brand I think of when it comes to the best pore strips, and these face ones are no exception! They work just like the original nose strips except in a larger size for bigger areas of your face. They help to clean out excess dirt/blackheads and leave my pores visibly smaller after use. My skin is a bit sensitive and there was no reaction from these. I prefer using them at nighttime on my chin and forehead only. Definitely recommend them as a weekly part of every skincare routine! #freeproduct

I deal with blocked pores on my nose and was really hoping this product would help. The application is quite easy but doesn't seem to really clean your pores. I did see some stuff getting lifted but I found that it left my nose dry and peeling more than anything. I think there are more effective ways to cleanse your face/pores so I wouldn't buy again. #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

I got this #freeproduct to #trywithtopbox they totally work easy to put and take off these strips are amazing applied the strips and was amazed at the results

I received this for free via #trywithtopbox in exchange for an honest review. It works as a normal pore strip would. It removed some sebum but more peach fuzz in my case. If your "blackheads" aren't showing through your skin it will not pick up a lot. My bigger issue with this is that it leaves a sticky residue when it's time to take it off. I waited until it was completely dry, but if the surface on your face isn't completely flat (like the corners of your nose or the curve of your chin below your lips), it doesn't lift anything and leaves the residue on there while the strip dries. Which isn't good because that's where a lot of the sebum is!! The product may say face, but I think it's really meant for just the forehead...

I used this #freeproduct after showering in the evening - I put them around my nose and chin area and I am satisfied with the results! They went on smoothly and felt secure and comfortable while I waited the 10-15 minutes. I was happy with most of the pores they were able to free up. I didn't get as many as I'd hope, but I still feel much better after using the strips.

I got to try this #freeproduct through Topbox Circle. I have tried the nose strips in the past so I was excited to try the face strips as my pores are really clogged especially on my chin. I applied a strip to my chin, waited 15 minutes then removed as per the instructions. It wasn't painful to remove and it got a lot of stuff out of my pores! My skin felt much cleaner after and so soft. I have been having issues with breakouts on my chin and this seemed to help calm everything down. I haven't had any breakouts since using it last week!

I used these strip during my nighttime routine on both my nose and forehead. They were very easy to apply evenly on the chosen area if you take your time. I stuck to the timing precisely and removed the strips slowly and steadily once the time was up. I was absolutely amazed at how much was removed from my clogged pores. They worked great for me and I could could apply my night moisturizer knowing my pores weren't clogged up. I will definitely be adding this to my skincare regime at least a couple times per week! #freeproduct
