Community summary
A famous 'pig nose pack,' used in three steps — soften → pull out (pack) → tighten — as a peel-off nose pack. The central points are easy home care and the impression that 'sebum comes out' (sebum coming out 147 · 29%), and buying it with confidence because it's famous comes up repeatedly.
Irritation comes up in 123 reviews (25%), but much of it is in the sense that 'since you peel it off it's not entirely irritation-free, but it's fine if you follow up with care.' Some say peeling it off feels cool and clean (60 · 58). The three-step design, which includes a pore-tightening finish, is counted as a plus.
On the other hand, split opinions on results are the core of the low ratings: blackheads not pulling out well or the pack lifting off so it won't stick. In particular there are mentions of quality variation — repurchased batches not being as good as before — along with a defect where only half was included and peel-off irritation.
These are counts of only those reviews, out of the 500 read, in which the expression appeared directly in the text. If anything we undercounted rather than inflated — it's a minimum.

Downsides (mentioned repeatedly)
- Split opinions on results — nothing coming out · liftingThere are split opinions that blackheads don't pull out well or the pack lifts off so it won't stick. Some say nothing comes out even after softening with steam or a towel, so it varies a lot with your sebum condition and adhesion.
- Quality variation in repurchased batchesA few mention quality variation — it worked well at first, but a repurchased batch weeks later lifted off and wouldn't pull sebum out. The context is that the feel can differ by lot.
- A few defect reports of only half includedA few report a defect where the pack had only half included. The context is to check the contents on arrival.
- Irritation because it's a peel-off methodBecause it's a peel-off method, it's not entirely irritation-free. Advice comes up repeatedly not to do it too often and to follow up with tightening and moisturizing care.
