Wednesday Beauty Buys
I have seen the benefit to using a facial brush on a regular basis so decided to buy a more robust one than my manual botanics one I was using. The Clarisonic, amongst others, are well out of my price range so I opted for the No7 cleansing brush from Boots. This retails at £29.99. I got this with a voucher so paid £24.99.
It has two speeds, but I tend to stick to the slower rotation. The bristles are soft and do not damage the skin in any way. I use it once or twice a week for exfoliation and toning. It seems to give my skin a nice gentle massage and tightens everything up! I apply my usual cleanser, add some water then massage with the brush for a minute or so. I don't think I would spend any more money on a facial brush for the benefit it gives, but for £25 it certainly is worth it. I did also look at the No7 cleansers and toners, but yet again so many have a high alcohol content - seems like you just can't avoid it at all!
Have you tried a Cleansing Brush?

ReplyDeleteI have a Clarisonic (mad to buy it when i could have had this)which which when I use it regularly makes my skin glowingly healthy.....but I am lazy!! Must start to use it! I think you are right to spend less, xx
ReplyDeleteLucky lady! I'm sure it is probably much better quality than my budget version! x
DeleteI would not have thought to use a facial brush Claire but I do like the sound of the massage and tighten up bit - I could do with some of that in certain areas! xx
ReplyDeleteI think I should use it a bit more - it is just a bit more effort and sometimes I just can't be bothered ! Ha !
DeleteArgh, I'm way behind on my blog reading ... is your house finished? Has life been restored to some sort of normality now?
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of no 7 I just feel it is too synthetic although I do love the gentle exfoliator which I read about on blogs. I prefer to use more natural products.
ReplyDeleteI never thought to try this. Thanks for the tip!
