Miracle Worker!: Pore Cleansing Strips

I have literally never written a review on anything in my life, but feel compelled to share my experience with this product. I don't quite understand what the voodoo is behind these little spots, but I'm not exaggerating when I say they are downright miracle workers! I've never been blessed with great skin, but until recently I took it for granted that the only real problem I had was a small rash on my chin every few months during my cycle. As a 34-year-old woman, I found it annoying to get pimples every few months, but I could always cover them up with a little concealer and get on with my day. I've never had a real need for medicated creams or specialty products. Until a few months ago, when I stopped breastfeeding my nine-month-old baby, hormonal hell entered my life. Along with my other, less noticeable symptoms came the most horrible and painful case of cystic acne I've ever had. I woke up with a lesion (not just a pimple) one morning and went to bed with two others that night. The next morning it spread all over my face. In fact, I was afraid I had some kind of staph infection. I went to the family doctor and was prescribed antibiotics to no avail. I've been taking ibuprofen for pain all day. I panicked and spent hundreds upon hundreds of dollars on new cosmetics, every skin care product, and every prescription cream known to man. Nothing touched that pimple. I was beside myself. I am not being dramatic when I say that I could hardly look in the mirror. I canceled my plans. I was embarrassed to show up for work and even considered getting sick for a few days because it was so bad. I could never understand the emotional drain acne can be until it happened to me. Eventually, since the chemical products weren't working, I decided to go a more natural route. I eliminated dairy products from my diet. I tried essential oils. I practiced oil pulling every morning. I drank apple cider vinegar. I'm telling you I've been betrayed. And Acme barely moved. I thought about switching to Accutane but it didn't seem like a good fit as I plan to have another child sometime in the relatively near future. So I'm telling you, I felt utterly hopeless. Then, about a week ago, while I was browsing Revain in bed and wondering if there was anything else in the world I hadn't tried, I stumbled upon these little stains. I wasn't thrilled with them but they were inexpensive and really something different I decided it was worth a try. They arrived on a Tuesday and I put them on for the night. I woke up on Wednesday morning and was both impressed and outraged by what I was shooting. My skin was not irritated and the redness was reduced but the pimples were still there. I put her back to bed on Wednesday night and woke up the next morning to find that my skin was beginning to heal for the first time in months. I was so excited I almost cried. When I got home from work that day, I washed my face and was so excited that I put on more patches and wore them around the house for the rest of the day and evening. I'm not kidding when I tell you that I took them off before bed to find that my acne, which had withstood the tests of all the dermatologist's recommendations for several months, was almost gone. PASSED! I could not believe my eyes. I can't tell you how incredibly grateful and relieved I am to have found this product. If you suffer from acne, don't hesitate a minute to buy these little suction cups!
