The Bioré Pore Refining Bubbling Nose Mask is a fun one. It’s a five-minute mask that fizzes and bubbles while it exfoliates your skin. The mask was just announced as a 2026 Good Housekeeping Beauty Awards winner, and now’s the best time to grab it—because it’s on sale.
This skin-smoothing nose strip is currently 22% off on Amazon, bringing the price down to $14. You get eight masks in one pack, which covers about four to eight weeks’ worth of use (the brand recommends using the mask one to two times a week for best results). If you ask me, this is a steal for a product that performed so well in our Good Housekeeping Beauty Lab tests.
Danusia Wnek, a senior chemist in our Beauty Lab, tested and loved the mask’s dual treatment design, with one smooth side that chemically exfoliates and the other that physically exfoliates.
The smooth side has glycolic acid for chemical exfoliation. You leave this side on for three to five minutes, which is where the fun begins. “During this treatment, it starts to bubble a little, which is a fun sensorial experience,” Wnek shared. After, you flip the mask to the scrubby side to further exfoliate and then rinse your skin with water.
Besides the fun tingling sensation, our chemists said it left their noses feeling and looking smoother. Wnek even noted that “there was a blurring effect” on her pores. This mask can be a great addition to a skincare routine, especially if you’re trying to get rid of blackheads.
Wnek said she thought this mask brought “the same level of TLC to the nose area” as sheet masks and under-eye patches. It provides all sorts of good benefits to the skin, like smoothing texture and minimizing the appearance of pores, and then can be gently taken off the skin and disposed of without creating a mess like some clay masks. (I’ve experienced nose strips that tug and pull at the skin during removal, so this can be a gentler option for your nose).
There’s no telling how long the sale will last, so grab it now while it’s 22% off! Such a fun little treat for an at-home spa day.
