Read full descriptionHide full description
An app for one thing: pulling blackheads out of a nose. Rotate the 3D nose, zoom in, grab a plug with the tweezers and pull it out slowly. The pop when it comes free is the whole point. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Tweezers: grab a plug right on top and pull slowly. Pull too fast and it tears, leaving a stub • Squeeze: line the ring up on a plug and hold. The plug oozes out. A torn stub can only be squeezed • Hairs: sometimes a hair stays behind. Pluck it with the tweezers • View: one finger rotates, two fingers zoom and move, double-tap for a close-up of the alae • Everything you pull lands in a tray, with count, total length and longest plug • Once the nose is clear, soak a cotton pad with toner and wipe: the pores tighten where you stroke and the skin turns dewy • Then admire the smooth nose. Rotate it, zoom in, take your time • Finish without a single miss and you get a "Wow!" TIME TRIAL & WORLD RANKING The clock runs from your first touch of a plug until the toner is done. Register a name and your time goes on the world ranking and your country's ranking, per difficulty. See the top 50, your rank and your personal bests. DIFFICULTY Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced (more plugs and hairs as you go up) DETAILS • The nose, its pores and its plugs are all generated inside the app. "New nose" gives you a different one every time • The alae get the most pores and plugs • Sound only when a plug comes out. Misses are silent • Switch between English, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese any time OTHER • No account, no ads, free (the network is used only for the ranking) • No photos and no camera. This is a game, not skin-care or medical advice
