Adorable, well-made, compact and portable device for face cleaning/massaging. Pricey though.
This is a silicone face pusator/massager. One side features soft silicone bristles that are useful for working any topical application into your face. The other side features a few ribs and can be used for simple face massage (no creams/topicals).<br /><br />You turn it on by pressing the power button on the back (massage side). You turn it off the same way. There's a travel lock you enable by pressing the + and - buttons simultaneously for three seconds. You disable the lock the same way.<br /><br />The device integrates a 300 mAh LithiumIon battery. That's not huge, but it's big enough to give a rated 300 minutes of run time. So it's enough to throw into your travel bag or purse (after a full charge) and not worry about running out of juice.<br /><br />It fits reasonably well in the hand. The vibration intensity can be adjusted in 8 levels using the + and - buttons. Personally, if I'm gonna use this, I'll be using the highest level, and at that level it dusts up a good amount of lather (if the topical you're using can lather). If you have sensitive skin, the lowest level is quite low--just a low hum of buzzing.<br /><br />Honestly, this is a sweet face cleaner. There is a caveat here, though. And that is that this device is quite pricey for what it is (silicone with a moderate-sized battery and a small buzzing/vibrating unit inside). So whether it's worth the price will be a matter of personal preference. It's perhaps closing with a note that this comes with a two year warranty, unlike cheap similar devices, which usually with a blink and you'll miss it warranty.<br /><br />Pros:<br />** Cute and stylish<br />** 300 minutes run time on a full charge<br />** At highest level, capable of a getting a topical (or soap) lathering well<br />** Lowest level is low enough to satisfy those with sensitive skin<br />** Travel lock-out mode<br />** Two year warranty<br /><br />Cons:<br />** Expensive
