Breathe Right Original

I've tried Breath Right strips as well as the Silent Mammoth, the Rhinomed Mute and Rhinomed Turbine products and this review will be comparing the pros and cons of these.- Airflow -The Silent Mammoth seems to have a similar effect to the Breath Right Strips in that it expands the upper nostril area whereas the Rhinomed products expand the lower nostril area (the nose entry point). For me, the upper nostril expansion is more beneficial than the lower. This may be different for others. So Silent Mammoth and Breath Right Strips are a tie for first in this category.- Comfort -The Breath Right Strips are the most comfortable of all options. I can sleep with them, eat with them, have a conversation, do any sort of mouth movements and barely notice it's there. It's no surprise why they're so popular. The Rhinomed Mute comes in second - I notice it's there but I don't feel any discomfort. The Rhinomed Turbine material is a little more firm (it's for athletes and active people) which means it stays in the nose more strongly but for me I feel agitated after wearing it for a few hours. The Silent Mammoth feels great as long as I'm not doing anything active with my mouth like eating or smiling/laughing. So for stuff like sleeping it's fine. Once I need move my mouth around then it starts to agitate my nose. So in order of Comfort from best to worst - Breath Right Strips, Rhinomed Mute, Rhinomed Turbine, Silent Mammoth.- Appearance -This is a little subjective. If you're fine looking like you have a nose piercing, which I am, the Silent Mammoth has the most low profile look. From 10 feet away you probably won't notice it. The Rhinomed Mute comes in second because it's a little thicker material. Next is the Rhinomed Turbine because it's bright yellow. Then worst of all are breath right strips for obvious reasons. I would not feel comfortable going to work with a breath right strip on my face. The other products are much better looking in my opinion.- Ease of Use -Breath right strips are the easiest to install. There's very little room for error. The Rhinomed products come in second - after ordering the multi pack, you first have to find which size fits your nose then adjust the nostril rings of that version. Coming in last, The Silent Mammoth has taken me a few days of experimenting to figure out a good setup. It's great because there are infinite variations on how you can bend the shape but that also means it will take some time to find the right fit.- Cleaning / Reuse -This is the main reason I wanted to try alternative to the breath right strips. I got really tired of throwing them away every day and cleaning the glue off of my nose. What a mess. So breath right strips are clearly last in this category. Although Rhinomed advertises that they need to be replaced every so often I think they're just trying to sell more products. Warm water and soap after each use should be fine. Cleaning is the same for the Silent Mammoth. I will put Silent Mammoth in first place here because they're easy to clean like the Rhinomed but also come with great storage cases and are intended for reuse.- Cost -This depends on how you look at it. If you're just looking at one time costs, the Breath Right Strips are cheapest, followed by Rhinomed, then Silent Mammoth being most expensive. If you're looking at cost per use - the Silent Mammoth and Rhinomed will earn their keep if you keep cleaning them. The Rhinomed also comes with 3 per purchase so if you're looking at long term cost per use - I'd put Rhinomed first, then Silent Mammoth, then Breath Right Strips.- Conclusion -These all serve slightly different functions so I'd encourage you to try them out to see what works for you. For me, the reusability and airflow from the Silent Mammoth makes it my current favorite. I just with I could use it during more active times like eating, smiling, laughing. I'll probably keep all three in my toolkit and use each depending on the situation.

I recently found out that I have a deviated septum, and trying nose strips for the first time was a truly emotional experience—I actually got teary-eyed finally feeling what it was like to breathe normally. Since then, I’ve tried numerous brands and styles of nose strips, and Breathe Right Original Nose Strips are by far my favorite.These strips are sticky enough to stay in place all night, which is a big deal if you’ve ever dealt with other strips that peel off too easily. They’re also reasonably priced, making it affordable to use them regularly. But most importantly, they are thick enough to fully open up my nose, providing the relief I need. Some of the thinner strips I tried just didn’t do the job as well.If you struggle with snoring, nasal congestion, or a deviated septum like I do, I highly recommend giving these a try. They’ve made a huge difference in my ability to breathe comfortably and get a good night’s sleep.

In my opinion, these were the only thing that worked to open the nasal passages, but dear Lord, do they hurt coming off. I tried putting water on them for a little bit before taking them off and that kind of worked but using a face cream like a moisturizer and let it sit for a minute or two helps. Really look at the instructions to put them on correctly a big drawback is you really only get one shot to stick them down.It was a big help during allergy season, but I’m really glad I don’t have to wear them all year. They are definitely worse a try. I would give them five stars if it wasn’t for the pain factor.

I've tried a few nasal strips to help with my allergies and snoring, this brand is my favorite so far. My boyfriend says I "snore like a bear" without the nasal strips, but with them I hardly snore! It stays on my face very well, even after applying my skin care. It's easy to peel off in the morning. It doesn't feel uncomfortable when I'm sleeping, however you will need to give yourself time to adjust to it if you've never used a nasal strip when you go to sleep. I breathe a lot better having this on and it helps me sleep much deeper. I know some people don't like how this looks because it has a tan color to it but they do make clear ones which work just as well as these.Overall, I really like this product and highly recommend for those needing help with breathing while they sleep :)

After buying these, my wife has stopped complaining about my snoring. I sleep a lot better and wake up feeling rested and ready to handle the day. Works great in combination with mouth tape!

The strips did not job but I have bought less expensive ones that worked just as well. The glue is a little too strong and makes it hard to pull off.

My significant other complains a lot that I snore very loud at night and I know I have a slight deviated septum which is the main reason I snore. These nose strips have actually made a difference! The moment I put it on I can already breath much better. I notice even after wearing them for a couple nights in a row I can stop for a night or two and be okay.They do leave a little bit of residue on your nose in the morning but it easily comes off with cleansing oil.

I love these to open my nose and make it easier to breath when I'm going to sleep. I usually sleep with my mouth open and this helps to reduce that.However, when I wake up, invariably, one side has come off and it's no longer doing it's job. I wish it would last all night.
