Are facial pore cleansers bad for your skin?

The ones that suck all the dirt out. I’m trying to find something to help clear up my skin and came across these but was worried the suction would have a long term impact.

Anybody know? Thanks!

I love mine but I've been having bad thoughts about it recently...like can I use it to hoover out my ears?

I'm shocked by how much gunk it sucks off my face. I love it.

Has it helped clear your skin?

If you have sensitive skin or underlying skin conditions like rosacea you cii OPI iOS exacerbate it. I would also worry about thread veins. Have you tried using a BHA toner or Niacinamide serum to help with the pores instead?

Oh dear, not sure what went wrong in my previous post! Meant to say:

You could exacerbate it

Yes my skin is much clearer. No blackheads at all. If you get one go easy on it though as they can bruise.

C'mon! You can't give it a glowing review without telling us which one it is Grin

It was just a cheapy off a Facebook advert. I think it's called skin glow or something but there's loads and they all look the same. It cost £10 I think.
