HOLIKA HOLIKA Pig Nose Clear Blackhead 3-Step Kit Strong Pack of 5

I've always been a skeptic of pore strips, but THIS DID THE TRICK in just 15 minutes to get rid of those pesky blackheads on the side of my nose. Adhesion was incredible, but I wouldn't recommend leaving them longer than 15 mins as they are STRONGGG and my nose is burning a little bit after. But all the blackheads are out, and it was so satisfying to see all the blackheads sticking out of the strip when it came out. Also great for hard to reach areas on the face like sides of nose!! Reccomend great value for money

First the packaging is so cute. I also want to state visually I do not have a lot of blackheads on my nose, but do have bigger pores and had been having health issues/been on medication so I was noticing more clogged pores and a few more small blackheads than normal, but mostly small ones that sit just under the surface. There isn’t much English in the package, which is to be expected. I was actually surprised to find any English instructions, and was prepared to look up the steps as I was not buying a product produced in an English speaking country. I thought it was cool they added English in to the package. It drives me crazy when I see people review products from other countries and have the audacity to complain that it’s not in English. Well of course it’s, not lady, get over yourself. End rant.The treatment comes in 3 steps. Each step takes 15-20 minutes. None of them were irritating. There isn’t so much a fragrance but a light pleasant.smell, it’s not perfumed.Step one is a cotton-like soaked material. You set it on your nose and wait 15-20 minutes and it does tingle a bit. I like when products tingle, it makes me feel like they are working. It says when you remove, to wipe away any blackheads and dirt that comes onto the surface. I thought there was no way, but sure enough there was oils and small surface blackheads that worked their way out.The next step is a nose strip. It also says 15-20 minutes. I think I let mine dry out a little too long as it was well stuck to my nose but it came off in one piece and pulled out even more blackheads that I didn’t know I had. This was a very satisfying step to see it pulled out stuff I couldn’t see. I’m assuming the first step helped to open pores so the second can get I there and resolve deeper issues.The final step is similar feeling to under eye masks. It’s got a jelly texture and you lay it in your nose for 15-20 minutes And when you take it off, you pay the product into your nose to absorb.Great product and effective. I find when I sometimes use nose strips it might partially pull out dirt or a blackhead causing it to get irritated and be more noticeable and that didn’t happen at all with this product. I have already recommend it to everyone and will buy agin. Also, the steps felt luxurious. I liked how it felt more Spa-like with various steps than a normal nose strip.

I am 31 years old and have ALWAYS had trouble with blackheads in my T zone, especially my nose. I have tried other pore strips, creams, wipes, soaps, medicine, diet changes, and just about everything you can think of.Recently I was watching a YouTube video and didn't catch the auto play in time to stop the next video. That video was a review for the Holika Holika strips. I was intrigued so I watched it. The results seemed to be a bit too good to be real. I looked them up and noticed they were rather cheap so I bought a 5 pack. I figured after everything I've tried, why not?I was hesitant to use them because the packaging is all in Korean and I didn't have a way to translate. Then I found Google's app for real world translation. I scanned the packaging and felt confident that I could do the system with no mistakes.The first strip has a strong citrus cleanser type smell. Some people find this pleasing while others found it unpleasant. Personally, IDGAF. I've smelled worse and it did not burn or cause any irritation. I left this strip on for a full 20 minutes then wiped my nose with a clean sterile cotton ball.To prep for step two I VERY LIGHTLY dampened my nose with another cotton ball that had been squeezed so it wasn't dripping. I positioned my pink strip on my nose with the link side on my skin and it stuck. I took a third cotton ball with a little water and dabbed the strip lightly to get a slight oink color and wet the steip to activate the bonding agent. I left it on until it was dry. About 15 minutes for me. (Time may vary based on humidity and temperature of your home)When I slowly peeled off the second strip I noticed DOZENS of blackheads were attached to the strip. It cleared about half the pores on my nose! I have NEVER used a product that cleared so much crap from my skin. I was absolutely shocked! The strip pulled gunk from pores on top of my nose as well as the sides. I looked closely in the mirror and noticed my pores were still opened. I probably could have used a second strip and pulled even more gunk out but I chose to complete the program.I used a wet cotton ball to clean my nose off. The adhesive leaves a thin residue and you need this gone before the next step.Strip 3 was slimy. Like, gelatin slimy. It is sandwiched between a clear plastic sheet and a rough fabric type sheet. You want to make sure you're using the gel strip in the center. If it doesn't feel like jelly, it's not the strip you need. Place this on your nose and sit down or lay back. Relax for the 10 or 15 minutes you need to close your pores. It's slippery and will slide off your nose if you're sitting up. When the time is up simple slip it off your nose and use a cotton ball to remove the excess goo, if any. Then a wet one to rinse followed by a dry one.I recommend cotton balls because they're soft. This kit will make your nose a bit sensitive to rough sensations. I have rough hands and my fingers irritated my nose when I was done.A day later and my nose is super smooth and soft. I suspect this is from sources along it in strange chemicals but totally worth it! I can't wait to see how effectiveective multiple treatments will be!***My huaband uses Retin A on his face so when he did the same thing I did, he noticed little to no results.I docked a star because I feel like a simple translation should be included.

This product is amazing. I have been hooked on these Korean blackhead pore strips. I bought the Cosrx Mr Blackhead one (which is also amazing) but are quite pricey and sold out on the usual website I buy it on. However when I stumbled on this, I did recall seeing this in my feed. The fact that it said "strong" made me say "yes" and I got 2 packs because ya girl is trying to get rid of blackheads on her nose that have been there for years. ( i did not start my true skincare routine until mid 20s). I have used these twice and let me tell you, it is amazing! I can already see my nose getting clearer. every time the 2nd strip will be FULL of blackheads and on my nose you will see black specs which I believe they are blackheads that didn't get pulled out but pulled to the surface so I took my blackhead extractor and removed them manually. After every session, my nose feel so smooth and looks so clear. I know it takes time to clear out the blackheads on my nose but this strip has done more work in the last two weeks than biore has ever done in my life. It is worth the extra steps because each strip does something to your nose to effectively remove the sebum and to tighten the pores.I can't wait to get more after I am done! going to need all the help I can get to smooth out this nose. Thank you!!

I love this product. It does take a full hour from step 1 to 3, but this product works wonders to clean one's nose of blocked pores! Highly recommend this product! Just a bit cheaper on amazon than in the beauty stores I visited in NZ!

Verglichen mit deutschen Produkten, die nur den Streifen aus Step 2 enthalten ist dieses wirklich ein funktionierendes Produkt. Ich habe vor einem Tag ein deutsches Produkt genutzt und es waren maximal eine handvoll Whiteheads/Blackheads drauf, Bei diesem Produkt ist der ganze Streifen bedeckt. Zeitaufwendig, aber ein gutes Ergebnis. Leider nicht 100%, aber immerhin +80%.

Works as described. The only thing is that it takes 45 minutes to use it and I don't really have so much time very often.

Did what was suppose to do, didn't leave ma y behind and skin was not sore or dry.

My go to blackhead nose pad!
