Secret Key Black Out Pore 3 Step Nose Pack

IF you follow me on instagram you must be aware that I love using pore strips I know many people think that pore strips make the pores stretched out overtime and make them larger but I like the feel of clean pores ( special the clogged ones on my nose)
I have previously tried out the Holika Holika 3 steps pore strips and really liked how it pulled out all the black heads and timey hairs on my nose. So satisfying

I received these from jolse when I was chosen as a reviewer in one of their campaigns.
The packaging is really cute, i love the illustrations drawn on the package. This is a 3 step pore  pack . Each step is individually sealed.
Prior to using all the steps I opened up my pores vu placing a hot gauze over my nose. That way my pores opened up

Step 1 : I placed the sheet like strip which was totally dripping with this citrus smelling liquid on my nose for for 5mins then rubbed it to clean an sebum
Step 2 : Tore open the foil to reveal the actual pore strip. Placed it over the wet nose and waited for it to dry ( approx 20mins) then took it slowly off by peeling from one side of nose. Result : Tiny hair and a few sebum plugs/ filaments

Step 3: The hydrogel mask to soothe the pores. This too has a citrusy scent. The hydrogel material was a bit difficult to adjust as it slipped quite easily off my nose. Eventually I had to remain to recline on a chair for 5 mins

Personally I enjoyed using this pore pack and think it did a pretty decent job cleaning out my pores and removing black heads its not as effective as my HG nose pore strip but it is good.
One of the note worthy things I would like to mention is that this didn't cause any sort of pain or itching.

Elizavecca Hell Pore BlackBoom charcoal pore pack

Hey there 🙋
I love products which promise to deep cleanse and make my pores less noticeable but not all cleansing products are made equal . some instead of deep cleansing over cleanse the face stripping it off of all the natural oil/sebum leaving the skin in a more dehydrated and damaged condition then it was before.

 I got a chance to try out this cute black hell pore pack by elizavecca its one of their newly released product of this year. This is a two way pore pack. Initially it works as a mask and absorbs all the oil from the face  but once you add water to it and massage its foams up and deep cleans the pores

Packaging:
Its super cute and vibrant on one side you can see a cartoon character  of a devils and on the other side there is an angel lol 😊. It's a nice squeeze tube with a nice sturdy cap. The product is sealed to prevent it from drying up.

Due to circulation of counterfeit products online and many stores elizavecca has decided to add scratch-able seal on their product which contains a number to ensure quality and authenticity of their products.

About the product
Its a black charcoal mask which has a thick slightly gloopy texture. Though you can spread it on your face using a spatula or i preferred using my fingers. I tried to apply the pack as evenly I could but I think I layered it thickly at some parts on my face 😔. On my face this dried up after 20 mins. It does not dry up like a clay mask( in fact it feels more like q peel of mask slightly slippery) first I added up small amount of water and massaged my face but was quite disappointed when it only turned grey but didn't bubble up but then I added more water to wash it off and was surprised how it began to foam up. (The foam was quite thick) so get the foaming/bubble effect you have to use a lot of water anyways I massaged for around 2-3mins and then washed it off( this washes of easily) but it can be a little messy. ( side note: Charcoal mask are messy)    It   Looking pore something that gets deep into the pores and clean them? I applied this cute charcoal mask and wow the  results are amazing.

The charcoal in this pack is very finely milled so you can actually feel the particles on your skin. My skin looked squeaky clean and a little dry after washing it off. The pores looked better too but the stubborn blackheads on my nose were still there 😡

Since the weather is starting to become cold I have decided to use this once very week or fortnight  or else my skin might become too dehydrated. All in one this is a fun mask/ pore pack to use and the results it delivers are good too
