Haha. So occasionally I like to do some "outside the field" work and experiment with other brands. We saw these nose strips that were inexpensive and thought we'd try them out.
Well, once we peeled and applied, we had some trouble keeping the strip on our noses. We tried to re-wet our noses to help it stick which helped a little, and allowed them to dry. I'll be honest, I was kind of excited to see that immediate gratification of white dots once we peeled it off, but that was't the case. Instead, it came right off like it was never even on.
First, let me start with there were 3 strips in the box for $1.00, so great price like I mentioned previously. Second, we read the directions on how to apply: Skin must be wet, peel off plastic sheet, apply, and leave on for 10-15 minutes. Then gently pull off. Here's where I got worried. Anything you have to peel off your skin is not good as it can create little microscopic tears on our face that's already so gentle. Also, the smell of the strips also had pretty strong, plastic like smell. Hence our faces lol.
So although we got a little daughter time out of it, it was not pampering at all, and even worse.... did not work. :(
The next day after I got off work, we decided we'd do it right. We took a little dab of one of our favorite detoxing Kaolin as Charcoal infused face masks, the Cackle Spackle and applied to our clean noses. It has a pleasant spearmint scent, and a nice texture. You can leave it on for 2-20 minutes (depending on skin sensitivity). We left it on for the full 20 minutes. You can see the charcoal pulling out the toxins and clogged pores being released. We then washed it off with a washcloth, revealing soft, clean skin on our noses. Definitely pampering, and definitely works. Plus, it didn't dry out our skin which is definitely a plus. It's even great for all over use, t-zone area, and for spot treatment of blemishes when little villagers decide to stake claim on your face. Lol.
