I tried the nasal strips in the last two rides I had in the previous weeks. The effect of more oxygen is confirmed, but I cannot tell the same about the durability of the product. I sweat a lot during training, in the first ride it was really hot and the strip fell off in the first twenty minutes. Today it wasn’t hot and I wasn’t sweating so much, but the nasal strip again fell off after 25-30 minutes. I don’t know if it’s the shape of my face that doesn’t fit perfectly or the positioning of the product, I will give them a chance again to determine if it’s my fault or not.

Advert says “Fast delivery” and 1 day processing time. Over a week went by and no suggestion order had been shipped. Local courier still hasn’t received so am guessing another week before I receive it. Poor.

Bottom Line: Histrips failed their main selling point within 15 minutes. Buy Breathe Right instead - same performance, half the price, no shipping wait. My Experience: High Hopes, Major Letdown Background: UK-based BJJ practitioner who waited weeks for delivery, excited by their “sweat-resistant” marketing claims. The Test: Light Brazilian Jiu Jitsu warm-ups (10-15 minutes) The Result: Strip peeling off from minimal sweat - complete failure of their core promise. What Went Wrong ❌ Marketing vs. Reality Gap • They claimed: “Resilient and sweat resistant” - their main differentiator • Reality: Couldn’t handle basic perspiration any better than drugstore alternatives ❌ Poor Value Proposition • Premium pricing for standard performance • Weeks of shipping delays to UK • Same adhesive quality as products 1/3 the price ❌ Athlete-Focused Brand That Can’t Handle Athletics If your product is marketed to active people but fails during a gentle warm-up, you’ve missed the mark entirely. When They Might Work • Sleeping (no sweat factor) • Very light exercise (walking, casual yoga) • Sedentary activities My Honest Recommendation Buy Breathe Right instead. Identical performance, widely available, much cheaper. Don’t waste weeks waiting for an overpriced product that doesn’t deliver. For UK buyers: Save yourself the shipping time and disappointment - stick with proven alternatives available at any Boots or pharmacy. Rating: 2/5 - The branding looks nice, but that’s where the value ends. Would I buy again? Absolutely not.
