Purederm Nose Pore Strips are a popular skincare product designed to address clogged pores and remove blackheads from the nose area. They are a one-step, peel-off treatment that provides a deep cleanse.

How They Work and Key Features:

Mechanism: The strips are coated with a special adhesive and ingredients that, when activated by water, adhere to the skin. As the strip dries and becomes stiff, it binds to the dirt, oil, and blackheads that are clogging the pores.

Purpose: The primary purpose is to unclog pores and lift away unwanted blackheads and whiteheads. They are also marketed to remove excess oil and leave the skin feeling clearer and smoother. Continued use is said to help tighten the appearance of pores.

Main Ingredients: While the exact ingredients can vary depending on the specific type of strip, common active ingredients include:

Activated Charcoal: Known for its excellent absorption properties, which help to draw out impurities and excess oils from deep within the pores.

Aloe Vera: This is often added to soothe and calm the skin, and to help prevent irritation.

Tea Tree Oil: Known for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, it can help reduce redness and is often used in products for oily or acne-prone skin.

Other ingredients often found in these strips include water, vinyl caprolactam/vp/dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate copolymer, silica, and various extracts like Witch Hazel.
