Being someone who loves to try new things (especially beauty products), for the first time today I tried those pore-cleansing strips for your nose, despite the fact they've been on the market now for a couple of years, but I hadn't heard how they worked...so I thought I'd give them a whirl. $3 something for a box of sticky things that do nothing! I'm hoping it just means I have really clean pores

But in the past, I've had my heart broken when I've bought or received things as gifts that just don't work the way they are supposed to.

Just curious as to what you've bought/received in the present or past that has been a major disappointment, whether it be in product performance or whatever else may have ticked ya off.

me, my sister, and my dad had a contest one day to see who could get the most stuff of thier nose with those, my dad won.

it seemed to work for us. (and i was my face everyday using suave shampoo cuz it gets rid of grease and grime-it cured me of my adolescent pimples)

Yeah, I bought those about 3 months ago, (first cleanser thingy I ever used) and I think they are great! I mean I have never used skin cream, oil, etc etc on a regular bases before, but i noticed the difference with the oxypads right away. And now that i use them every morning that I have no dirt spots for a few days in a row.

The one thing that i belive that does not work, razor blades that advertise that you don't have to shave for longer, better shave's etc.

I think that Gillette disposables are the best. They are a good clean shave and it doesn't cost a fortune, and they do a good a job as any other thing. (only exception is maybe the Mach 3, also from Gillette) I noticed i am starting to use that on special occations.
