Manicare Facial Cleansing Brush is a manual cleansing brush designed to gently exfoliate the skin to improve blemishes and reveal a radiant and glowing complexion. The brush is made out of soft nylon bristles that deeply clean pores, helping to remove embedded make-up and impurities more effectively than a cloth or fingers. Consistent use of the brush results in cleaner skin, which will allow other skin care products such as serums and moisturisers to penetrate further and produce better results.

Testers were instructed to apply cleanser to the face and then use the brush in small and light circular buffing motions, before rinsing off with water and continuing with their regular skin care routine.

Following these directions, the majority of testers found the brush effectively cleansed and unclogged pores, resulting in smoother, radiant skin with a refined texture. Testers were impressed with the brush’s ability to remove dirt, oil and impurities, with majority in agreement that the brush was more effective at cleaning their skin than their fingers. Some testers also commented that they found gel and foam-base cleansers to work better with the brush than cream-based ones.

The majority of testers found the bristles of the brush to be soft and gentle on their skin. Those with sensitive skin were particularly impressed with its ability to deeply clean without any irritation, while others desired an even deeper clean. All testers found the brush comfortable to hold and easy to use both in and out of the shower.
