Manicare Salon Thermal Sonic Cleanser

Packaging is cute and the 3 step instructions seemed easy enough - I missed the 'press power for 3 seconds' part though! Lol I happened upon a feature that wasn't listed anywhere on the packaging..there are different intensities of sonic vibrations! Once you start it up press the button again to increase vibration. The unit itself sits snug in the hand and is easy to maneuver in circular motions over your face, it is however difficult to get into the creases around your nose and eyes because of its shape. For the very first use I decided to go whole hog and use my Dermalogica thermal skin polish and the combination did not disappoint..My skin felt smooth and taut and I absolutely love that feeling! Over the next few days I used it with different products, with and without the warming feature, in and out of the shower and sometimes just with water. My preference was definitely with product and my cream cleanser was one that worked really well with it. Loved using it in the shower! The warming feature needs time to heat up which isnt ideal as Im impatient- but worked around it by switching it on and leaving it while I brushed my teeth. I preferred to just use it as is most of the time as I didnt feel much difference with the warming feature. Overall I liked it and did a good job of cleansing my skin.

This was the first time I have used an electric cleansing brush. I have always been curious about the foreo Luna electric cleanser so I was keen to see what this one was like. I have been using this electric cleanser for about one week and normally use it at night while in the shower. Overall I have not noticed a lot of difference to my skin since using the cleansing brush. I normally just use my fingers to cleanse my face, with no other tools. I have combination oily skin and have been using this with a foaming cleanser. My skin felt fresh and clean afterwards, but also not any different to cleansing without this brush.

The cleansing brush is very compact. It fits nicely into the palm of your hand and is nice and easy to hold. The silicone brush is gentle on your skin when used with plenty of cleanser. I tried using it with just plain water and felt that it was harsh on my skin. When used with cleanser the brush wasn’t harsh and my skin didn’t feel like it was stripped of its natural oils.

This brush has a heating function that heats to 40 deg Celsius. However when using it in the shower I didn’t notice or feel the heat. Maybe this was because I could already feel the heat of the water from the shower.

One thing that I also noticed that was that I had to use a lot more cleanser than normal in order to get the cleanser foaming. I had to use double or triple the amount of cleanser that I normally use.

Overall I didn’t notice a lot of different results with using this cleansing brush. However I will continue to use it for longer to see if there are long term results.

First of all how cool is the charger. Simply plug it in and the device just sits on top and charges, so cool. I absolutely love this device. The device is small, easy to use and bristles are super soft and it's so good with it being 100% waterproof. If I wasn't in the shower, I would dampen my face with a bit of water, then placed my face cleaner on the bristles. Press the power button for 3 seconds (must admit I had to press quite hard for it to start) then the warmer button for a further 3 seconds. While the device was on I gave it a few further seconds to warm up, then placed it in my face and did round motions around my face. The bristles are so light and gentle on your skin. I was a bit worries with how the bristles on my skin would feel from the vibrations but was actually very relaxing. I could have carried on cleaning my skin for hours. After a minute, rinse your face to remove the face cleaner and pat face dry with towel and complete with your moisturizers you would normally use. My face honestly felt so clean and refreshed afterwards. I felt like i was glowing. It felt like I had almost gone for a facial, I couldn't wait to use it again. I was so impressed with it I even used it on my hubby's skin and he actually loved it aswell. Will definitely be recommending this to my family and friends.

100% love this product!!! I have tried a few products similar to this but this band finally got it right!

The packaging is on point and eye catching. The item itself is so nice! Easy to hold, 100% waterproof!, soft, feels durable and C.A.U.T.E! You have 4 modes: 3 vibrating settings- low, medium and high and a heating mode. When you turn it on, you hold down the on/off button for a few seconds then it will turn on and vibrate; a light around the emblem will glow green; with each mode the green light will get brighter. With the heating mode the light with glow red. There is a separate button for the heating mode room you can turn it on and off when ever you like.

There is a nice little box and inside is a charging plate and USB charging cord. The plate is a nice addition because your sonic has a spot to be displayed on and can be charged at the same time. I wish they had paper instructions in it on to use the product because you have to go online to find them (they do have a QR code to find instructions but some people may not no know how to use it or can't. So paper instructions would be good)

It removes, makeup, dirt and oils super fast and easy. The heating is so nice on the skin and is an amazing addition. It helps remove the makeup faster because you don't have to help getting warm water and it helps the product lather better. The silicon bristles are soft on the skin and doesn't pull or tug; but soft and durable use on the skin

Just loved this product The packaging is a nice lilac colour, the material of the box is of high a quality. The instructions with the product were well written and easy to understand. The charge unit is silver, although the cable that came with it could maybe be a little bit longer, with the cleanser on charge it actually looked like a rose The Cleanser itself is also lilac and of a good quality. I do however struggle a bit with the button to switch it on as I have to push it with the tip of my nail as it is a bit small to just press with your finger, the same with the heating function. I use this in the shower and have no issues with it. I have found that it cleanses my face brilliantly, my face overall feels smoother and softer and definitely cleanses way more then just using my hands I love using the heating function, as I have hormonal acne on my chin area and have found a huge improvement in my chin area. The bristles on the cleanser is soft and does a great job in cleaning Since I started using this I have found that it definitely cleanses and removes a lot of the oiliness off and my skin is not so oily during the day. I have combination skin and my skin tends to get oily during the day so a huge improvement on this part. My skin definitely looks a lot healthier, brighter and glowing. As the description says it is for sure a mighty little thing!!!!!!

What a cool wee product. I have never used something like this before so I was keen to put it to the test. Out of the box it's a very simple setup, just the wireless device (yay, no batteries) and a charging pad with USB cable. It's a nice size and fits snugly in my hand, not to mention a cute lilac colour. It took me a while to figure out how to turn it on as the instructions didn't really allude to where the power button was so after manically pressing the silver ‘button’ on the base for sometime I had a closer look and found it on the side. It's the same colour as the device,lol. Turning it on I had to use my fingernail has just pressing it wasn't enough then, you press the heat button which heats the centre thingy, this takes what feels like a minute but is probably around 20-30secs, a bit of a pain when you want to start using it straight away. The instructions also don't mention it has (I think) 3 speeds, also handy to know as the high speed really makes my skin tingle, I like it! As for how it works, I used it both in and out of the shower, with and without cleanser. I definitely prefer using in shower with cleanser, it seems to be much smoother. Afterwards my skin feels smooth and I have noticed my skin is brighter and I have less acne type issues (probably were blocked pores, all gone now). I have also used it with a gentle exfoliant, very nice. It makes me feel like I am doing something nice for my skin. To charge it is really easy, you place it on the special charging pad, simple however, that pad only has a USB cord so I had to plug into a port in another room away from the bathroom. It does stay charged for quite a while though so may not be much of an issue for some? It's a product I normally wouldn't purchase thinking it ‘gimmicky’ but will now continue to use it as I do really like the result.

This was my first cleansing tool I’ve tried, and now I cannot go back to simply cleansing using my hands and washing off with a damp facecloth. The daily gentle exfoliation has massively improved my skin texture, helping to visibly reduce the congestion and small bumps on my forehead and chin. Even around my time of the month while my skin is most temperamental and during mask-wearing, I have had much less intense acne. My oily-combination skin really enjoys the thorough cleanse, and especially with double-cleansing using the tool in the evening I definitely can see a difference in how bright my skin looks. The tool is innovative and has great charge time, having only charged it initially and not once since (with use everyday twice a day for 10 days). I love this tool and can’t be without it now. The warming button is also lovely to use.

Firstly i was impressed by the look of the product. Very beautiful colour and gorgeous wee charging station. I used this in my facial cleansing regime in morning in shower and night time. I found it was very gentle with the bristles and did clean the impurities oit more than a flannel would. It was quite smoothing and skin felt smooth and soft afterwards. The heating setting didnt do much for me really in the shower and was hard to get between nose and cheek but changing angle helped. Overall i absolutely loved this product and will recommend to friends.

I'm not going to lie when this product arrived I was mostly curious about what it actually was meant to do - it seemed like it was simply a vibrating face cleaner (was this something I actually needed? Or purely a gimmick?).

The combination of gentle pulsing and warming action helps to deep clean your skin, opening pores and removing debris. Leaving you with cleaner, brighter, better looking skin. I have to say, it did help with my "maskne" and my skin felt smoother and softer after the first couple of uses, but since then I've not noticed any additional changes. It is something that I will continue to use but I'm not sure I would have purchased it myself.

Pros: It is waterproof, which means it can be used in the shower. 3 hour charge time gives up to 3 hours of use Small and lightweight

Cons: Seems to take longer to wash your face If your cleanser is anything other than a smooth cream it takes a bit to wash it out of the bristles

I'm definitely on the fence with this one, I don't think it's a beauty essential but it is a good tool to have.
