Biore pore plasters are excellent at minimizing the appearance of pores if used properly. Biore pore plasters are generally intended for use on the nose. Therefore, if you want to use this plaster on other parts of your face, you have to buy a combo pack. This article will show you how to use the plaster.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Using Biore Plaster on the Nose
Step 1. Wash your nose using facial cleanser and warm water
Consider using a cleansing soap that exfoliates. This step will remove any dirt and most of the blackheads on the surface of the skin.
Step 2. Wet your nose with water or a damp towel
This will open the pores and make the blackheads easier to remove. In addition, the nose must be wet so that the Biore plaster becomes sticky and can stick to the skin.
Step 3. Remove the tape from its packaging and then bend it up and down
This will make the tape easier to shape to the curve of your nose.
Step 4. Remove the glossy plastic cover from the plaster
Throw away the plastic cover. Remember the plastic side is glued on, as it will be facing your skin.
Step 5. Make sure the nose is still wet, then apply the tape to that area
Place the tape so that the arc-shaped part is facing down towards the tip of the nose. The tape should cover the tip of the nose.
Step 6. Smooth the tape over the nose using your fingers
If your nose is wet enough, you will notice that the tape is sticking to your skin. If there are any air bubbles that can't be flattened, just press them down for a few minutes until they no longer pop. You want the tape to stick as evenly as possible to the nose.
If the tape doesn't stick well to the skin, wet your fingers and try pressing them against your nose
Step 7. Leave the tape on the nose for 10-15 minutes
The plaster will begin to harden, much like paper mache. Try not to pick it up or wrinkle your nose too much.
Step 8. Hold one end of the tape and gently peel it off
Lift the tape up away from your nose. Don't tear it. Besides only causing pain, the plaster will also not remove many blackheads.
If it hurts when you remove it, you may have left the tape on your nose for too long. Dip a cotton swab in water and apply it to one end of the tape. This method can wet the adhesive on the plaster. Try inserting a cotton swab on the underside of the tape tip. Once you get a firm grip on the tape, place a cotton swab and try to peel it off again
Step 9. Rinse your nose with cold water and facial cleanser
The blackheads will disappear, but there may be some Biore adhesive residue left on the nose. Avoid using hot or warm water, as this can risk irritating delicate skin. After removing all the adhesive residue, rinse your nose with cold water; This method can help close the pores again and prevent any dirt from entering them again.
Method 2 of 2: Using Biore Plaster on Other Parts of the Face
Step 1. Purchase the Biore Deep Pore Cleansing Plaster combo pack
The regular Biore package only provides a plaster for the nose, which is not intended for other parts of the face. You will need this pack in order to apply a non-nose patch to your chin, cheeks, or forehead.
Step 2. Wash your face using warm water and facial cleanser
Consider using an exfoliating soap as it can help remove all kinds of dirt and stubborn blackheads on the skin's surface.
Step 3. Wet the part of the pores to be cleaned using warm water or a damp towel
This will help open the pores, making the blackheads easier to clean.
Step 4. Remove the Biore facial plaster from its packaging
Make sure your hands are dry, otherwise the tape will stick too quickly.
Step 5. Turn and bend the Biore tape
This will make it easier to follow the shape of your chin, cheeks, or forehead.
Step 6. Remove the plastic covering the plaster
Remember the plastic side is glued on, as this will be pressed against the skin.
Step 7. Make sure the skin is still wet, then press the tape on the area
Spread the tape over the skin, making sure to remove any air bubbles or wrinkles. If the tape doesn't stick well, lightly wet your finger and try smoothing it out again.
Avoid placing the tape too close to the eye. The skin in the area is too sensitive and fragile to the plaster
Step 8. Wait for 10 to 15 minutes
During this time, the plaster will harden like paper mache. Try not to move your face too much, otherwise the Biore tape may start to peel off. For example, if you apply a bandage to your forehead, try not to raise your eyebrows too often.
Step 9. Gently peel off the tape
Once the plaster has hardened, grasp one end and carefully lift the tape off. Avoid tearing or tearing the plaster; because this step is not only painful, but the plaster won't remove as much blackheads as it should.
If placing the tape on the forehead, start peeling it off from both sides and then work your way up to the center
Step 10. Rinse your face with cold water and facial cleansing soap
The Biore plaster may have removed all of your blackheads, but it can leave a sticky residue. Cold water and facial cleansing soap can remove it. Avoid using hot or warm water as it can irritate the skin.
Tips
- Always wash your face before applying plaster. Oily residue from makeup and face cream can prevent the plaster from sticking.
- Make sure the skin is wet before applying the plaster. Biore plaster will not stick to dry skin.
- If the tape is difficult to remove, slightly dampen the ends and try to peel them off.
Warning
- Do not leave the plaster on overnight. This method will not make the plaster work more effectively.
- Do not use on skin if there are sunburns or inflamed pimples.
- Do not use the Biore nasal patch more than three times a week, and the chin and forehead patch more than once a week.
- If the plaster causes irritation, discontinue use.
- If you are taking a prescription acne medication, check with your doctor before applying a face patch.
