It could be a way to get around spam blocking. The spammers mention the product in a negative light ,and people who investigate online are drawn to fake critique sites that promote the product.

I didn’t know there was such a thing as “droopy nose.”

so i used this for a long time, it did not work. i angrily demanded a refund back but guess what??  
THEY DECLINED. then they stopped emailing me.  
so i went straight to paypal, and paypal decided that if I sent it back to them, I would get a refund. only problem was…they gave me a time limit and required that i get a tracking number!  
i didn’t even recieve it with a tracking number and it costs 32 dollars to ship it with one…i only paid 30 for the actual thing!  
i was so angry i stuffed into a drawer.  
I pulled it out like 3 days ago, and man am I glad I didn’t throw it away yet.

I realized it does NOTHING for a dorsal hump, droopy nose, or big nose. but it can make the TIP of your nose- only cartilage- look slimmer, and it pinches down your nostrils so your nose looks overall smaller.

but the effect only lasts for about 1 minute after you take it off. ☹ i’m doing it every night, though. maybe with permanent use it’ll work
