Olay Regenerist Advanced Cleansing System Reviews

I took this Olay cleansing system at a sale from Big W and have been loving it. At first I was quite apprehensive about it but bought it because of the brand - Olay. Earlier I had a Clarisonic Mia 2 but it stopped working after I used it in India. So, the best thing that I love about this cleansing device is that it runs on batteries and you don't need to charge it. This is very handy while travelling.
It is very decent sized and doesn't take up much space. It has a little brush head which spins at 2 speeds. I use it at night so it cleans up your skin very effectively, priming it for your skincare routine. My skin looks very healthy ever since I have been using the cleansing devices. But this Olay one is very affordable and does the same job as the pricey ones! The only drawback is I couldn't find the replacement heads anywhere but you can buy the whole system in a good sale for a very reasonable price .
I have even gifted this to my mum and sis and they have loved it too!

This play cleansing system is great value for money. At under $35.00 it does the same job as much more expensive cleansing devices. It’s easy to use and the rotating brush effectively deep cleanses, removing all traces of makeup and dirt while being really gentle. The device has two speeds and the brush is high quality and really gentle. Using this will not irritate sensitive skin and it’s gentle enough for everyday. My skin feels really soft, clean and smooth after using this system, it rejuvenated and makes my skin glow, looking younger fresher and brighter. I love this and highly recommend it, another play winner

I purchased this when I saw it on sale on a Priceline shopping spree not too long ago. It was $18 at the time-too good to pass up!
I haven't used any of the more expensive brands of brushes but probably wont either after using this one. This is effective and gentle enough for me and all at such a great price!
I used the cleanser that came with it a couple of times but ended up binning it as it was too harsh for me. The system itself however was a huge winner. Deep cleans gently and leaves my skin so soft and smooth. Much more clean feeling than with a cleanser alone.
I use this about every second night and have less breakouts than usual.

Now I know what all the hype around face cleansing brushes was about! I purchased the Olay system about 4 months ago and I have no idea how I lived without it for this long. I use the cleansing brush and cleanser daily. The brush is soft but cleans my makeup off effectively and I'm still using the original batteries. The cleanser is a gel-like cream with tiny granules that helps to exfoliate the skin.

I scored this beauty in the rewards room and I am so happy with my choice!

I love that it comes with a small starter cleaner you can trial with it. I thought the supplied cleaner was ok but I would much prefer to stick with my current cleanser with is Olay.

I love the brush. I was a little scared to use at first and thought it would be too rough on my skin however it was great! It gives the best clean and my skin feels fresher and cleaner than it has ever before.

Bought this for $17 from Chemist Warehouse after never owning a cleansing brush and thought I'd start off small and cheap before considering a high end brand.

Wow. To set the scene - I'm 27, had bad hormonal acne since I was 10-11 and it has wreaked havoc on my face. Huge pores, dark scarred spots, uneven, greasy plus dry flaky patches, just horrific.

It's been two weeks and I have loved using the cleansing brush purely to clean my face as I wear a TON of foundation and primers to cover the pores and I was super happy to see how much makeup came off using the brush after I thought I'd already washed my face. That's the reason alone why I bought it, just because my face never felt properly clean.

Well, today I saw a photo I took two weeks ago of my face side on profile, and I thought I'll take another one and see if there's any actual difference? My skin FEELS great, but I wasn't sure if my skin had actually changed or not.

I took two more photos in the exact same spot, same time of day, same bathroom etc. the results were crazy!! My skin has changed so much. It's totally even except for two small red pimples that I had picked up. Normally my entire face has red marks everywhere just from past spots but today my face was a normal colour. I couldn't believe it.

I can't wait to see what one month looks like... and then six months, and so on. Also I should mention I didn't use the Olay products at all. I just use the brush with my normal cleanser. I am so happy and i couldn't live without this brush now! I wish I had tried a cleansing brush sooner. It has saved my skin. I will still get hormonal acne but my complexion is so much better regardless. My pores are almost non existent as well.

This product was included in my Best in Beauty prize.

Around a year ago I purchase a cleanser similar from Clinique, my experience was poor as the machine was faulty after a month of using. Having it replaced twice and having the same problem I decided that this type of cleanser was a fad and waste of money.

I avoided the Clarisonic but was curious when the Olay Rergenerist advanced cleansing system was released but withheld in purchasing due to my experience. Even through the price one half of the Clarisonic and Clinique, it wasn't enticing enough to give the machine another go.

I was super excited to know it was part of my prize as I got to try it out without forking out the dosh for it.

It's been 2 months and I am so pleased with my cleansing system. It works like a dream and is worth every cent.

It is smaller than the competitors but I find the results are exactly the same. If anything it was better to handle.

My skin feels so good when using. It feels stimulated, exfoliated and my moisturiser definitely seems to work better.

I have nothing negative to say about this cleansing system. I purchased one for mum for christmas and she also loves it.

I brought this device because the one I wanted was out of stock. So keen to give it a shot, I purchased this one instead, as it was on sale.

First impressions:
Was actually much smaller than I anticipated. Also the cleanser included was only sample size. The little head is detached and batteries are included. Thought there might be a replacement head, but only one is supplied.

Usage:
Very simple to use. Batteries are already in the device. You just have to simply attach the head on. I clean my face of any makeup, oils, moisturiser etc.. making sure my face is left a little damp. I wet the brush head, with a little warm water and apply a 5cent piece amount of product to my face, gently massaging it it. There are two buttons on the device. One is to switch the device on and the other to control the speed that the brush rotates. You just simply turn the on button on and using the slower setting, I gently move it in circular motions all around my face, for 30 seconds before pressing the speed button again to the higher setting for the next 30 seconds. Once finished, I turn off the device, throughly rinse the brush head, detach it and allow it to air dry on the counter. I give my face a good rinse and pat dry.

Last impressions:
I really like it. It's very simple to use and I feel like it really does give your face a deep clean. I noticed that my blackheads on my nose were becoming less prominent. I also like how it exfoliates my skin.

Overall a great device that I would highly recommend, for those wanting a deep clean.

To summarise: A great starter if you have not used a facial brush before. Is it worth the $20 or $40 (if you decide to buy full price)? Yes, definitely. Does it compare to the $200 facial brush? No.

First up, Olay always offers a good 40 /50% off discount so most people would be able to buy this brush for around $20. For $20 it is definitely worth it. To start off with, it is a good tester to see if I like using a brush, and also if I can be bothered to get into the habbit to use it daily (the answer is no). The brush is quite sturdy and I dropped it a few times in shower, it didn't break. It gives a really good exfoliation and my skin feels very soft afterwards.

Disadvantages:
The bristles are very hard compared to say, Clarisonic and Phillips. I have initially used it daily and I felt my skin was over exfoliated after 5 days and my skin is normally very resillient. I wouldn't recommend this for daily use.

Batteries not rechargeable. Not environmentally friendly.

Bo replacement brush head in major pharmacies. Apparently they need to be purchased online from ebay. This is a big disadvantage. It is much easier to just change the whole brush but environmentally unfriendly to do so.
