no7 beautiful skin cleansing brush
I was a bit scared to start using at it first, after hearing about the terrible 'purging' phase causing horrendous break outs and having blemish prone skin already this was my worst nightmare. My skin is also quite sensitive and can be dry, so I was worried that the brush would be too harsh. After my first use though, I was addicted. The difference it made was definitely visible, and as I looked at my skin the following morning I was actually excited to wash my face again that night. The difference it had made to my skin was more than I expected - all my rough areas were completely soft, a lot of my blocked pores were clear and my skin had a glow to it.
Two months on my skin is clearer than it has been in a long time and blackheads are a thing of the past. Simply using this and moisturising each night has left my skin feeling baby soft and actually feeling more hydrated than before. I've still had a few blemishes but I find that the brush helps clear them up slightly quicker than usual and the red marks haven't been as noticeable.
The cleansing tool has 2 speed settings: a gentle one to suit those with sensitive skin, and a quicker, rougher one which I actually prefer to use myself. It's the easiest tool ever to use - simply apply your cleanser of choice to your skin (I'm currently using up my stash of skincare so I'm finishing off this Neutrogena wash and mask), switch it on and take it across your skin in small circular motions. I never remember to stick to beauty regimes or even do regular facemasks, but this sits in my shower and as it only takes 30 seconds or so to use is a step I never skip.
The instructions recommend using it 2-3 times a week, but as my skin has reacted really well and as I haven't had a break out, dry skin or any adverse effects I've been using it more often, but not quite daily, and alternating between the two settings so that I'm not too rough on my skin.
I can't recommend this enough, and with replacement heads coming in at only £8 for two (one will last you a recommended 3-4 months) this is a step in my routine I'll definitely be keeping up!
