We have all heard about the Clarisonic facial cleaning
brushes and the wonders it does for your skin, right? I have drooled over this
brush for many years but unfortunately for us in SA, it wasn’t available here.
Unless you were willing to buy it from overseas. When it eventually came to SA
this year, I thought yay, then saw the price and went nay. I get it works but for that price, never. So I
found a great alternative, the Sorbet Pore your heart out facial cleaner.
Feature
The Sorbet Pore your heart out facial cleaner is a
mechanical facial cleaner that will help keep skin free from dry, flaky skin
and keep it clean. Comes with 3 different brush heads to suit your needs.
Quality
When you first buy this little blue dolphin, as Robbie calls
it, you wonder if it will compare to the Clarisonic, but once you start using
it all doubt vanishes. The quality of the product is so amazing, I would
actually have paid more for it. It doesn’t feel cheap at all and with 3 interchangeable
heads, this was a great deal. You can also buy replacement brush heads from
Sorbet. (It is suggested you do this every 3 months.)
Main Benefit
If like me you hate applying face masks and waiting for it
to work, just to be able to get the dead skin off your face, then this is
definitely for you. I also don’t feel
like my normal facial cleaner was doing its job which is why I wanted something
that would help.
There are 3 different brush heads: 1. Silicone (for people with
sensitive skin), 2. the daily cleansing brush (for daily cleaning) and 3. the exfoliating brush (for deep exfoliation).
I vary between the sensitive one and the normal one.
Sometimes my skin feels like it is a little more delicate then I would rather
use the silicone one. I use makeup wipes to remove my makeup at night, then go
in with my brush to really clean my face. I also use it in the mornings. I use the deep exfoliation brush once a week,
to really give my skin a deep clean.
Ease of use
This brush is super easy to use. Just decide which brush you
want to use and then it clips on as easy at that. The brush has 2 buttons, one
to switch it on and the other to change the rotation of the head. It is fully
waterproof, so you can take it into the shower with you. Cleaning it is also a
breeze. Just use baby shampoo to clean the bristles and then dry it with a
towel. I let my brush heads dry upside down, so the bristles don’t come loose.
Who would the product suit
This product would suit anyone who thinks their normal
facial cleaner isn’t doing a good job and is looking for a deeper clean. It is
also great for ladies who would like to try out a facial brush but without the
price tag of a Clarisonic.
Pros
Easy to use
Quick (just 10 seconds on your cheeks and 20 seconds on the
forehead, nose and chin and you are done)
3 interchangeable brush heads
No batteries (It comes with a charger with a USB plug.)
Cons
Because you are introducing a new system to your daily
routine and because you are releasing all the trapped dirt from your pores, you
will experience breakouts.

I love this brush and will definitely keep using it for a
long time. In the beginning there were breakouts on my chin but I stuck with
it. My breakouts cleared and my skin is better than it has ever been. I have no
more blackheads and my skin is as smooth as a babies. My makeup applies better
and doesn’t cake anymore.
