Intake Breathing Nasal Strip Starter Kit (30 Count, Black) - Boost Oxygen Intake, Reduce Snoring, Improve Sleep Quality - Sweat Resistant, Skin Safe Nasal Strips - Extra Strength Snoring Solution

The size variances are great, the patches are easy to put on and it actually works and give me and my partner a good nights rest by reducing my snoring. They are durable, good quality and comfortable. Just putting them on, you can breathe in better, they work. Only qualm I have is that I have to keep buying magnetic sticker patch refills and they aren’t the cheapest. Affordable refills or reusable alternatives tot he stickers would be amazing.

Fellow humans who occasionally sound like a freight train in their sleep (or live with one), let's talk about the Intake Breathing Nasal Strip Starter Kit. I bought this with a mix of desperation (my partner was threatening to move to the couch) and curiosity. Could these little magnetic strips really make a difference? My skepticism was high, but my need for a peaceful night's sleep was higher.When this kit arrived, it looked like something out of a slightly futuristic medical lab. A few different sized magnetic bands and a stack of adhesive tabs. It felt... intriguing. The instructions involved sticking a tab to your nose and then attaching the magnetic band. It felt a bit like assembling tiny, high-tech nose jewelry. My initial attempts were slightly awkward, resulting in a few crooked tabs, but the magnetic applicator helps guide them into place.The first night was the moment of truth. I applied the strips, looked in the mirror (and tried not to laugh at my reflection), and settled into bed. I fell asleep, bracing myself for the usual elbow nudge from my partner around 2 AM. But the nudge never came.I woke up feeling... rested. And my partner was still in bed, not glaring at me from the doorway. Apparently, the snoring was significantly reduced, if not eliminated! It's like these little strips are tiny bouncers for your nasal passages, keeping them wide open and ensuring smooth airflow. My nose, which previously seemed to be operating at about 50% capacity overnight, suddenly had the breathing power of a champion athlete.Beyond the snoring (which, let's be honest, is a major win), I've noticed I just breathe better through my nose during the day too. It's subtle, but it's there. More oxygen? Maybe! More energy? Possibly! Less stress? Definitely, at least for my partner.If you snore, struggle with nasal congestion at night, or just want to experience the joy of truly open nasal passages, give this a try. It's a slightly unconventional but incredibly effective solution. It's brought peace back to my bedroom and made breathing feel effortless. I'm thoroughly impressed with this little nose gadget.

I found out about intake through an instagram ad and thought it looked fantastic so I purchased it just to try it out. 20 dollars seemed reasonable, and I would say even for that price, this thing is pretty worth it.In terms of the product itself, it does everything it claims to do, it opens up my airway fantastically. The quality is great, the plastic is not cheap feeling, the magnetic applicator is actually very handy, makes it easy to apply, and it includes sizing for almost any nose size. The stickers themselves work great, and so long as you clean your nose beforehand, they won’t start to come off until you wear them longer than 24hrs. If I was rating based on the product itself, I’d give a perfect review.I like to wear mine before bed, which drastically improves my sleep quality. I’ve also worn it to the gym a few times which was amazing, but I’m not brave enough to show up with it on every day lol. Any situation where you need to open up your airways works great with this. Sometimes if I’m gonna be working from home, I’ll just stick it on the morning and leave it on all day!Positives aside, when I ran out of the adhesive magnets, I went and checked the price of the refills. Intake wants to charge $30 for 30 stickers. I don’t know how you can justify charging a dollar for a bandaid with a tiny magnet in it. Mind you, without those, the product is completely unusable. Since I didn’t want to pay the equivalent of 2 Prime memberships every month to continue using my nose strip, I went online to do some research to see if maybe there was a DIY solution or way to reuse the stickers…Turns out, I discovered THIS EXACT PRODUCT is on aliexpress, sold by the actual manufacturer for $2 dollars (for the same starter pack kit).Not a knockoff version, the exact same product. I have both kits now and besides packaging, the two products are literally indistinguishable. Same logo, same materials, same sizing, even the swirling pattern on the magnetic applicator is the same.Not only that, but the refill sticker packs cost $7 for 100 count… basically, intake is selling you a product that they didn't actually invent, don’t actually make, putting their own branding and charging you 10x markup for the kit and 15x markup for refills.So while I absolutely love the product, I can’t help but feeling like I’ve been duped into participating in someone’s get rich quick scheme by buying from Intake. I honestly wouldn’t even fault them if they sold it for a less ridiculous markup, since at least you have the convenience of avoiding international shipping and having prime overnight. But in my mind, selling a $0.07 sticker for 1 dollar is totally unjustified.Rating 3 stars, because despite the drop shipping scam, the product itself is perfect. If it weren’t for intake’s shady business model, I would have rated 5 stars.

This is an incredible product. It provides probably 2-3x the airflow of the best adhesive / bendy strip.The first night after wearing this I did some useful personal writing and took some steps to get over a major depressive episode.The nose bridge did come off the magnets on the first night, so I wish the magnets were a little bit stronger, but fortunately the magnets stuck on my nose so I was able to find it in my sheets and stick it right back on. I understand that the stronger the magnets are the harder it is to take off so the manufacturer is probably doing a trade-off there but I think a little-bit stronger magnets would help.The L1 size fit my large-ish nose just fine, and it is more comfortable and less itchy than the other products in its class.I genuinely love this so much that I'm considering hiring someone for body-modification to implant magnets in my nose. It is expensive but probably worth it.
