Kitchen tool, maybe -- Spa tool, no:
I thought this would be better than my tried-and-true Revlon tool for removing skin bumps, but it does not work. Except, maybe, as a lemon zester? I think I'll sterilize it and put it in my kitchen drawer.
Also, Tweezerman's guarantee is not customer friendly.
I simply couldn't get it to work:
This tool just didn't work for me, I'm afraid. All it did was leave a red loop shape on my skin wherever I pressed it, and moving it along my skin didn't feel good, more painful than manually expressing my pores. Due to my "If it hurts, stop doing it" policy with my sensitive skin, I gave up after several occasions of attempting to use this tool. I wish I hadn't bought it. I've read reviews from people who have had great success with this tool, but I haven't.
Works great:
There's not a whole lot to this product. It just works and it's well made so you don't have to worry too much about bending or breaking either of the hoops or having it rust. This thing should last nearly forever and it works admirably. Definitely recommended.
Not quite.:
Not the best comedone extractor I've used. The larger end is too large for 90% of skin types. The small end works fine. I'd recommend an extractor with one end similar to the smaller end, with the other end consisting of a lancet to open pores prior to extractions. This makes for a much less painful extraction. If you don't have a lancet on your extractor, use a sterilized needle prior to extracting. You'll have a lot more success with a lot less pain. If you have small pores, I'd recommend an exteactor... more info
