Better than BreatheRight, Works Over Nightly Skincare Too
Why did you pick this product vs others?:I'm an overweight woman in my late thirties and--well, I snore. I go to bed first at night, so I was keeping my husband awake. I didn't know for months--and I love him for trying to be so polite about it at first--but I was determined to find a solution that would work out a little quicker than a few months of getting back into the gym.BreatheRight strips! They were... challenging. Where I lack dedication for fitness, I'm an avid follower of a nightly skincare routine--and that means a lot of moisture on my face. Including my nose. Know what you can't do when you're using BreatheRight strips? Have any moisture on your nose. Those strips will slide right off, even the Extra Strength ones. And they left some pretty gross residue. I really hated them, even though they had some lavender ones that smelled nice.I was really skeptical about Intake, like most things I see first on Facebook ads. Amazon is a great safety net for returns though, so for $40 I bought it. Watched the little video in the QR code that explains how you pick the right size band for your nose, and how to attach the nasal strips to your face. I was a little bummed when the directions explained that you should make sure your nose is pretty dry--so I dutifully followed my BreatheRight routine of making my nose a desert of moisture before applying the strips and the band. And they worked! My husband said he didn't hear my snoring for the next few nights.But I was still back where I started. Sure, Intake got the job done like BreatheRight strips on a parched nose, but they're also more expensive despite less gross residue. BreatheRight strips are about $0.37 vs Intake's $1.05 per night. There wasn't really a point to spending almost 3x more over the residue since I shower right after taking them off anyway... unless I could wear them over my skincare. So I tried--after cleansing, toning, a serum, and a generous night cream, I put it all on.And the Intake strips and band stayed perfectly in place over my stupid oily nose. Instant joy.I had to ask my husband a few times over the next few nights if I snored--maybe Intake was less effective with the skincare under it? But no, no noise. And everything was firmly in place in the morning. Awesome.Intake is going to cost me $1.05 a night--or $31.50 per month. That might be a hefty price tag, but it's one I can afford. Amazon Prime Days are coming up, so fingers crossed for a sale. It's worth it for my husband's comfort--and mine.Ver másVer menos
