Hello IMBBians,
I am obsessed with nose strips! Even though I do not have blackheads, I use such strips to clear out the pores and reduce whiteheads. Today’s review is all about Balea Soft and Clear Anti-Blackheads Nose Strips. Read on to know more.
Price and Quantity: $2 for 3 nose strips
Product Description:
The Balea Soft & Clear Anti-Blackheads Nose strips are effective against pimples and blackheads. The active ingredient combination of salicylic acid and tea tree oil frees the skin on the nose from impurities. When used regularly, the appearance of the skin is refined and the development of blackheads is pre-determined.
Ingredients:
Vp/va Copolymer | Aqua | Glycerin | Bentonite | Polyvinyl Alcohol | Hamamelis Virginiana Extract | Butylene Glycol | Ethyl Hexanediol | 1,2-hexanediol | Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil | Salicylic Acid | Sodium Hydroxide | Phenoxyethanol | Limonene | Ci 77891.
My Experience with Balea Soft and Clear Anti-Blackheads Nose Strips:
The nose strips come in a cardboard package. There is some information on the back and I find the outer package pretty decent for the price. When opened, there are 3 pouches inside. Each sachet carries one nose strip. There is some basic information on the back of the sachet. I find this very convenient and I can just slide it in my purse and use it when I am on-go too! Overall, the simple, hygienic packaging wins my heart!
he nose strip comes in the basic curvy shape on a clear film. You can easily pull off the nose strip. The nose strip is white in color. The use of the nose strip is very simple. You need to wet your nose and place the strip for 10-15minutes and then peel it out. Since the product contains salicylic acid, it stinks a bit. This can be an issue if you have some broken skin. The nose strip did stink a lot especially near the corners of the nose. I had a runny nose and due to the constant rubbing of my nose, it caused some burning!
The nose strip is very easy to use. The adhesive is very strong and it sticks to the nose perfectly. It is very painful when I rip it off. It leaves my nose red and it hurts a lot when I am trying to pull off the nose strip. The strong adhesive pulls off the dry flakes from the skin. When I pull out the strip, I see white heads, dry flakes and black heads stuck to the nose strip. It leaves my nose very clean and cleansed.
The product doesn’t leave any residue behind. The Nose strips do not effectively pull off the blackheads. It does make the pore look clear and also, removes white heads. If you have severe dry flakes, I do not want to use them as they rip out the sensitive skin. The strip does make the pores look big, especially where it rips out the whiteheads. So, I do not want to use them often. The product is a strict no-no for sensitive skin.
The nose strips make the nose look radiant after usage. It feels very clear. The nose strip also control oil and I noticed that I was oil free for almost 2 days, this is pretty great as I have combination skin which means an oily T zone! Overall, this is just an adhesive strip that contains salicylic acid that helps you in achieving a clear dead skin free, oil free nose. Other than it is nothing great and is not a must buy!
