Claira and Doll, I'm in this journey with you!!
My nose is a rather cute-shaped nose and is only a bit rather large (in fact, when I went for a rhinoplasty consultation, they were trying to come up with alternative ways to fix the slight proportion problem, because they did not want to mess with my nose. Apparently I have the shape that most people GO for when they get a nose job!) but it has always been two sizes too big for ME. I don't care what other people say, I just have never liked it and no matter how many times I have tried to embrace it, I still look in the mirror and wish it to be smaller. I want these feelings to be gone, and unfortunately I don't really believe in going the plastic surgery route (which I feel is the reason for most of us being on this forum!!!), especially since my nose is only a BIT too large. I don't think that breaking my nose is worth the risk of ruining the shape of my nose, just to make it a bit smaller, so I have been on and off actively researching these things. Obviously be careful because Nose Magic and Nose Right have a huge list of spammers.
Desperate though, I bought a clip that mimics the Nose Magic and Nose Right off of Amazon for like $2 to give it a try. It hurts after wearing it for an hour, so it may seem like it does something! It keeps my nose looking pretty narrow for the following 10 minutes, so like the NB it may have longer lasting results later after a longer time of regular use. I just don't like how it really cannot be manipulated to serve each person's individual needs, based on the simplicity of it's design. It pushes inward to make a narrower tip or bridge, which is good, BUT for those of us who do NOT have the stereotypical Asian flat nose, the "outward" pull is not desirable. I stopped using this clip a couple weeks back because I was honestly afraid that my nose would be made to project from my face more, and that is one of the ways in which it is already big
I am now looking for something that pushes to make the nose narrower while pushing the nose profile in, as well. It looks like Nose Secret also works on the same principle of pulling the nose "outward." Anyone see something that promises to bring INWARD the profile of the nose??
