SleepYStrip Review: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, And The Ugliest. My Unique Take On This Mouth Strip

Welcome to my Sleep Y Strip Review.  Built from the bottom up, aimed to be the best product in the mouth-taping category. The strip, as the name already says, has a "Y"-form. You can visit the company at www.sleepYstrip.com.

Now, onto the SleepYStrip. As the title reads, I'm not SO positive about this product. 

Nevertheless, let's consider my 5-tier scoring system and my rating of the SleepYStrip:

✅ Stickability: How well does the product stick? In this case, the product does stick well, my beard hairs are pulled off, in fact! The problem, however, is that it's hard to get a good seal in the first place! And, yes, the product stays on all night, and yes, you MIGHT be able to re-use the product a second night. However, it's harder to get re-sealed because of the size of the product. Score? 4/5!
✅ Safety: Does allow for some mouth breathing. I also didn't have any irritation, I didn't have any allergic reaction which I usually have. The mouth vents are a bit big. Also, the lower part of the adhesive can quickly be pulled off. Pulling it off does pull off some hair, BUT, the product is very safe! Score: 5/5!
✅ Practicability: The very biggest downside is that the strip doesn't perform really well! Sorry! The vents are too big around the mouth, meaning that you can still mouth breathe if you want to. It's very hard to place the strip in the right position also, compared to the other products I've talked about in this description above. In fact, there's not even a tight seal with my facial hair, personally! Facial hair also lowers the ability of the product to work well. Also, as I've said, the vents are too big to begin with! The score is 2/5, unfortunately. 
✅ Price: When broken down, 1 strip costs $0.80 - which is on the higher end of the spectrum! If you buy multiple units, you pay about $0.70 per pack. Bigger deals don't save much more either. Bottom line: this product is expensive! The score is 2/5.  Bummer!
✅ Everything else: The appearance is absolutely ridiculous. The size is enormous. Ease of application is also horrendous, as it takes lots of time. Cutting up the strip makes it even worse. Mess? Not good either, horrendously excessive. The good thing is that you can talk through the strap. For travel, the unit is OK, but bulky. Score 1/5.

FINAL SCORE? 14/25 - the lowest score so far!
