The history of electric brushes began relatively recently - they first appeared on the market only in 2001, and this happened in Seattle, America. But very soon the new product spread throughout the country, and then throughout the world.

Electric brushes gently and delicately cleanse the face; the result of the procedure can be easily compared to professional cleansing. The bristles rotate oscillatingly and therefore do not injure the skin, but make it smooth and radiant.

Philips Visapure (Philips)

How to use a facial brush

First, you need to completely cleanse your face of makeup - using any product that you are used to (it can be foam, milk or lotion). Then lightly moisten the skin with plain water so that the brush glides over it better and does not injure it. Apply any cleanser to the stubble and treat your face with the device.

Movements should be smooth, circular. Under no circumstances should you press the brush too hard, as this may cause damage to the skin. Watch the time: spend about 20 seconds on each area (forehead, cheeks, chin, nose) to avoid redness. Some brush models are equipped with timers that will alert you when it is time to move on to the next area of ​​the face. Avoid the area around the eyes!

If you have never done this before, start with the softest possible attachment. Do not cleanse your skin with a brush at the same time as using scrubs or any other exfoliating products.

How often should the procedure be performed? Start with once a week, and then, if there is no side effects, you can increase the regimen to 3-4 times a week.

If you have been thinking about buying this useful gadget for washing your face for a long time, but have not yet chosen a specific brush for cleaning your face, read our review; we have tested the most popular samples and share our impressions.

Cleansing brush Clarisonic Mia 2

It was this brand that was the first to come up with a soft face brush that makes about 300 vibrations per second in different directions.

This brush has a timer that tells you every 20 seconds that it's time to move on to another area of ​​your face. As a result, you spend only a minute washing your face with this device: 20 seconds on your forehead, 20 seconds on your nose and chin, and 10 seconds on each cheek. It is important that after using the brush, your skin becomes more receptive to various creams and serums: the pores are cleaned, dead skin is removed, which means the effectiveness of the products and their penetration into the layers of the epidermis increases.

At the same time, it does its job well and can be used daily. Used for surface cleaning. Disadvantage of such models is that they are not designed to smooth out wrinkles. But at the same time they massage perfectly and improve blood circulation.

Electric brushes They have nylon bristles and do not damage the skin. The bristles are rounded, allowing the brush to glide gently over the surface of the skin. Many models are waterproof and are suitable for use in the bath or shower.

Which one to choose for home use?

Choosing a face brush is not an easy task. With such a variety of models, it is difficult to determine which one is right for you?. Therefore, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with some features that you should pay attention to when purchasing:

1. If you choose a brush for gentle cleansing (for sensitive skin, for example), pay attention to the bristles. The best option are rounded nylon bristles.
2. It is important that the model was equipped with power control. This will allow you to determine which mode of operation is preferable for your skin.
3. Versatile Motion Brushes are much more efficient than models with circular rotational motion.

The risk of skin injury with such models is reduced to zero.

4. Electrical types of devices are the most popular for care oily skin, as they deeply cleanse enlarged pores.
5. It is better to choose a model from a trusted manufacturer Clarisonic, Philips or Clinique. They certainly won't disappoint you.
6. Don't buy Chinese analogues, since their quality is much inferior to the original.

A facial brush is a cosmetic device that helps keep your skin clean and healthy. When used correctly and regularly, it can solve many skin problems and make her healthy and radiant. The main thing is not to make a mistake with the choice!

Facial cleansing brushes are designed for daily washing. The fact that ordinary lotions and tonics, which are intended for removing cosmetics, do not “free” pores from dirt and harmful bacteria has long become common knowledge. It is important to take into account that this particular problem provokes premature aging, unhealthy skin color and other troubles, one way or another related to the face.

Information about special brushes for washing came to the Russian consumer from the Internet. Before many domestic companies began producing such products, they appeared abroad and became very popular. In this regard, many bloggers began to mention cleansing brushes in their videos, notes, and pages social networks. Actually, this begs the question: are they really that good?

Description

The brushes are designed for deep cleansing of the face, primarily the pores. They come in two types: electric and non-electric. In addition, they differ in the following parameters:

• Length and thickness of villi;
• The size of the product itself;
• The size of the main and additional nozzles, their effect;
• Availability of replaceable nozzles;
• Price.

Optimal for daily use is a brush with thin and soft bristles. Size, in principle, will not play an important role, but it is important to understand that a too large product will be inconvenient to use, while a miniature one will take a lot of time in terms of the cleansing procedure. In addition, it is best to choose kits that have at least two replaceable attachments. At the same time, a huge number of attachments are essentially useless; half of them will gather dust on the shelf.

But which brushes are better - electric or not? Of course, preference should be given to the former. The thing is that thanks to the optimal speed of rotation of the villi, the skin is cleansed without scratching. Don't forget about the fact that it is also more convenient.

True, the price of electrical products is higher. They are produced by companies such as Mary Kay, Clinic, Braun and even Oriflame. Western manufacturers do a better job in this regard; for example, a brush from Mary Kay has long earned recognition among women, as evidenced by reviews on the Internet.

But Oriflame, in turn, did not create much excitement, releasing rather mediocre products, but more on that later.

Action and effect

As already mentioned, the main effect of the brush is cleansing. But it has a few additional steps you should be aware of. Any brush for deep cleansing the face has a massage effect. In principle, this is already clear from its design, but still this factor should not be underestimated. Facial massage with the help of such products helps the pores to “breathe”, due to which the skin color is evened out and in general it takes on a very healthy, fresh look. In general, using a brush can get rid of the following common problems:

• Premature aging skin;
• Pore ​​clogging;
• Remnants of makeup are invisible to the eye;
• Unhealthy, ;
• Acne.

By the way, regarding acne and other imperfections, it should also be noted that cleansing brushes cope with this problem. Of course, they cannot be used individually - it is necessary to apply products designed to combat acne, but their effect is enhanced several times. Sets from Brayn, Mary Kay, Beyrer and many other companies have special attachments that increase the effect of care products when used simultaneously. So, you can even exfoliate using brushes.

If someone is very confused by the price, then this can also be resolved - on Aliexpress you can find several dozen suitable products from a “no name” manufacturer. They will be inexpensive, work properly (if you choose the right one), but delivery from the site will take quite a long time.

Indications and contraindications

It is not recommended to use brushes in the first place. Although a good product with soft bristles will not scratch the skin, redness may occur due to the action itself. This especially applies to low-quality products, since they are made of poor, hard material, and can subsequently harm even “resistant” skin.

The face brush, in principle, does not have any additional contraindications for use. If you choose the product wisely, guided by the information provided above, then there will be no problems at all.

You need to use a brush based on several factors, including: the purpose of the specific attachment and the purpose of the application itself. Actually, the main nozzle is designed to cleanse the skin. You can apply regular soap to it, or you can not apply anything at all, as many ladies do. If this is the only one included in the kit, then don’t be upset - this attachment itself is universal. If desired, you can use it for peelings and other procedures. Well, the purpose of the rest should be indicated in the instructions, which must be relied upon in the event of any general issue regarding the product configuration.
