Nivea Pore Refining Clear-Up Strips!

Since I was about 11-12 years old, I've always had problems with blackheads on my nose, forehead and chin.

I've never really known how to get rid of them, but recently I've been using these strips from Nivea, they're pretty pricey, but if you use them correctly they'll work and remove most of your blackheads.

It comes with 6 of these "bags" with a strip in it. This exact product has 4 for your nose and 2x2 for your chin/forehead.

When you open these "bags" this is what comes out. They're placed on a piece of plastic since the strip itself is sticky.

 Before you apply it to your nose/chin/forehead you have to have wet/damp skin, I always find that it works best with wet skin.

Then you have to pull the strip off of the plastic and place it on your nose/chin/forehead.

I'm really bad at placing the nose strip, but I always start by placing the middle of it first and then forming the rest of the strip to my nose. When you've placed it you can kind of move it around, but it sets pretty quickly.

On the packaging it says that you have to wait 10-15 minutes before taking them off, but you have to wait for the strips to become hard, and that usually takes 20 minutes for me.

When they're ready to be taken off, you just grab a corner of your strip and pull, make sure not to do it too fast. It might be painful, I personally think it's fun :D

And OF COURSE you have to look at strip afterwards, it's quite funny to see what the strips pulls out, and how much it got rid off. :)

After that just wash your face and put on some moisturiser and you're done! :D

If you can't get your hands on these strips, you can use a peel-off mask and make your own strips ^^

Just take the mask and apply it on your nose/chin/forehead and wait for it to dry and just peel it off. That's a budget way to do it, and works just as well :)

Thank you for reading <3
