works best if you use before nose strips

This totally dries out the gross stuff in your pores, giving you a strawberry nose. Which makes it easy to extract afterwards, like with nose strips or with a good ole extractor. The instructions tell you to wipe off with toner. The easiest method of removing all the powder is to use an alcohol based one, not one of those soft toners or soap/water. It's not a miracle worker, but it's really cheap given how much powder is in that jar.

Love it! Great for blackheads..

I saw this product after reading a review on another site. The powder goes on kind of like chalk, but it works great! Pulled out my blackheads right after washing off. Interested in his other products too!

the jury is still out...

I love Mario Badescu products, but I'm still unsure about this. I dampen a cotton ball & dip it in the powder and pat the paste on my nose. I *think* it has helped reduce blackheads, but really, I'm unsure. It's not like they just melt away. I dont have oily skin, so I can't attest to the dryness, but it hasnt dried out my normal skin either. I'll continue to use it and update if I have any revelations.

Great for oily t-zones in summer

You basically dampen a cotton pad with water before dipping it into the powder, then apply on your problem areas and wash off. This soaks up ALL the oil where it's applied and I swear it's a miracle because I don't have to use blotting papers throughout the day when I use this in the mornings. Effective and you get a TON of product for cheap!
