We can all agree that makeup is bliss, I love the gorgeous
colors and the ability to conceal, camouflage and transform from blah to
bombshell but all those glamorous layers can clog pores. At the end of the day it
is imperative to remove the heavy formulas and deep clean so that skin can recoup
and replenish. That’s where a good cleansing brush comes in, using a wipe or
face wash may appear to get rid of the residue but you’d be surprised at how
much is actually left behind!
I usually alternate between a few different cleansing
methods and brushes but if you are looking for an affordable yet effective
device then the Skinvigorate by Mary Kay is a great option. This fabulous little
tool comes with two brush heads that rotate and gently massage the surface of
skin to thoroughly remove dirt and makeup 85% better than using hands alone!
The brush heads are very soft so they aren’t rough or
abrasive on sensitive skin and you can adjust the force you apply to increase
or decrease the cleansing pressure. I also like that the rotating action helps
remove impurities with gentle exfoliation to leave skin soft, smooth and polished.
The cleanser is battery operated but it is waterproof if you
prefer to use it in the shower although you should never submerge it. It is
also very easy to use and incorporate into your daily routine, simply press the
button to turn it on and switch between the two speeds using the other button.
I like to remove my makeup with a face wipe first to avoid staining the
brush too much and I wet both my face and the bristles so that my cleanser foams and
distributes well. I prefer to apply my face wash directly to the brush and
rinse it clean after each use. It is recommended that you replace the brush
head every 3 months but with proper care you can stretch it a little longer and
they retail for $18.00/per 2.
The device also comes in white if you prefer and aside from
removing makeup and improving tone and texture to boost the complexion it also
allows your skincare products to absorb more efficiently, increase circulation and help maximize the
hydration benefits of your moisturizers. Because it is so light and small it is
ideal for travel and makes a fabulous gift this holiday season!
The Skinvigorate cleansing brush retails for $60.00 and you
can get it online at marykay.ca or through independent consultants.
The brush reminds me of Olay Pro-X which I have used since 2012! This sounds like a great option too.

Yes, it is very similar, I had the Olay one as well lol. Different brushes do perform differently and although it isn't a sonic brush it works great for everyday cleaning!
