It smells nice enough but it takes quite long to dry especially in cold weather. It pulls at your skin when you remove it and if you aren't gentle it hurts a bit. It pulls out the little hairs on your face but I don't really mind that. My pores are still pretty clogged after the fact and the blackheads still remain. Skin is only slightly smoother. It lasts quite long which is nice when compared to individual strips. Just wish it did its job more effectively.
