Adhesive Pore Strips Exposed

The benefits of pore strips have been fabricated by epic proportions. They do a good job of removing surface debris and the tops of blackheads...but that's about all they do. They provide a momentary visual benefit, but not much more.



Myth 1: Strips make pores smaller

Get real. Nothing that you put on your skin will decrease the size of your pores. The pore size you have now is the same pore size you'll have after using a special pore product...including Pore Strips.

.................................................. ...............

Myth 2: Strips remove black heads

This couldn't be further from the truth. Pore strips remove the visible presence of the blackheads, but that's it. They never penetrate the pore and actually remove it. They only take off the top part.

Myth 3: Strips eliminate "surface debris"

This is misleading. The strips do remove grime from the surface...BUT...they also leave little pot holes where the gunk used to be. It's just a matter of days before these little crevices are filled back up with newly deposited surface debris.

The Truth:

Adhesive pore strips have obvious benefits. They make your face look a lot cleaner and give you a blackhead free appearance. That's good. It really is. But...the best way to keep these unpleasant surprises from popping up is by consistently following a daily skin care routine. This is the only way to permanently fix your blackhead problems.

 
Thanks for posting this. I was never really pleased with these things. Sure your skin looks good for about a day or so, but back they come again.

 
Thankyou for posting this information! I was considering purchasing the Biore strips for my nose ... hmm, i guess im just lazy but i really should start drinking more water/steaming/exfoliating and face masking etc to get my skin clear and looking good instead!

 
I like them for a quick fix but the effect only last for about 24hours.
