Definitely Surprised!

I was really happy to be selected to try this product - have never tried something like this before and going into the first use i was skeptical after seeing the product itself. It is so small, and feels like it wouldn't give out enough power to make a difference - I was very wrong.

I have always had the issue of buildup getting stuck in my pores and my skin is so sensitive that I worry enough about the cleanser without applying it with a powered device - but it was so soft, so gentle and yet my skin has not felt softer or clearer after use.

I really loved the waterproof nature of this, makes it so easy when you are a busy mum on the run and have limited time to get yourself ready.

Would perhaps think that at the full price it is a little expensive and may put people off the purchase, but so glad I have had this opportunity and really hope that others take the opportunity to invest in this piece and give it a go

Sonic Mini is a Must have!

Other than being THE CUTEST gadget ever, it actually works. I have combination skin and during the winter months my forehead manages to be oily AND dry at the same time...oh the joys...so I was definitely looking forward to see what it could do for me. You don't have to worry about stripping your skin, because it's so gentle. I used it on the low setting in the morning and the strong setting in the evening. A definite selling point to me was the fact that it's WATERPROOF! So of course I had to use it in the shower. It fits comfortably in your hand and the rubber coating means you still have a grip on it even when it gets wet. Genius! Super easy to charge (one charge lasts for days!) so it's perfect for if you are off on holiday and want it to come with you. Really great if you want to pamper yourself (everyday!)

Tips: Put your cleanser straight onto the brush head. I found this was the best 'visual' way for me to see where I had cleaned rather than washing my face and then using it.

Too soft to have any effect

Lucky for you dear reader I tested this product during the time when my pre-period skin was at its most hormonally affected..A blemished mess. So I put it to the test. Sadly, I would've got more of a scrub from my electric toothbrush even on the higher setting. There is a massage head attachment available to purchase separately and I can see this being a more effective use of the product. Using it with my cleanser didn't get the cleanser into my skin any more than usual and then I had something extra to wash. So all the elements of a great product are there just needs to be powered up a few notches.

Tips: Make sure not the deform the bristles while cleaning.

Fantastic Entry Level Cleansing Brush

I have found this to be a really great facial cleansing brush for everyday use.

It uses sonic vibration to deep clean impurities, however the bristles are quite soft so it is not abrasive on the skin. After using this brush my skin feels super clean and refreshed, without feeling like it has been scrubbed off. My skin can be quite sensitive however this has given me no issues with any dryness or breakouts which has been amazing!

The brush itself is nice and compact, easily fits in the palm of my hand and would be perfect to chuck in your bag when you are travelling.

The cleansing brush head clicks onto the main body, and it has a cushion area underneath where the brush attaches which means it can move around and mould to you face as you are using it which makes this super comfortable and easy to use.

The charging port is located underneath where the brush head attaches. I have found the battery power on this little device awesome. I have used this daily for 8 days in a row on one charge and it is still going strong!

There is a button on top of the brush which turns it on, and changes between 2 brush speeds.

I personally have been using this once a day in the shower, love that it is waterproof so I can wash my face as part of my usual routine.

I do a double cleanse, using my fingers to wash the initial makes up off then followed up with the cleansing brush to do a proper deep clean. This really proves how much is missed by using finger only as you can always seen make up remnants when going back in with the brush and this dirt would have been missed otherwise! It recommends you use this for a minute so I mentally break my face up into 6 "sections" and count to 10 on each area , this give me a rough idea of when the minute is up.

My skin has felt so soft and smooth after using this every day for a little over a week, I will 100% percent be keeping this as a part of my routine as i love the way it leaves me skin feeling. Love it!!

Sonic Mini

The Manicare Sonic Mini Rechargeable Facial Cleansing Brush had me pleasantly surprised. The first time I used it I had already removed my makeup but decided to put it to the test to see if it’d get rid of any more and I was blown away! When I read that this device is clinically proven to remove 5x more impurities than hands alone, I had to see this in action to believe it. After use the brush was covered in makeup from what I thought was a clean face. The brush is really soft, the sonic vibration really gentle. I feel like this type of device is really trending right now and this one did not disappoint! I was worried how my skin would handle the sonic vibration being so sensitive and reactive but it just felt like a nice gentle massage. I would recommend to all skin types!

Tips: Clean brush regularly and replace brush as required. Use gentle circular monitors and let the device do the rest of the work!

Nice to feel a little bit extra!

I received this product as part of a trial team review.

Manicare Sonic Mini is a facial cleansing brush that uses “sonic vibrations” to purify the skin. The device is a half sphere shape that is baby pink in colour and has a soft silicone casing. It comes with a sensitive bristle brush head and a designated USB charging cable. There are also additional heads that can be purchased separately, including a massaging head for use with creams etc.

The instructions state to charge before first use, which I did using the included cable. It is a USB cable which you can plug into a computer/laptop or a wall charger. The end that plugs into the device is a special pin shaped jack so don’t lose the cable! The device took about 1.5-2 hours to fully charge as indicated by the red LED on the power button.

After clicking on the brush head the device is ready to use. It has two power settings - gentle and normal, and you can cycle through them by pressing the power button. Please note the brush head does not spin, it just vibrates.

I started on the gentle setting and used it with a cream cleanser. I found it easy to use, the device fit nicely in my hand and the brush was easy to manoeuvre over my face. The vibration felt relaxing and the bristles did not feel irritating on my slightly sensitive skin. The device has a 5 minute auto shutoff and does not have a zone timer like some other sonic face brushes.

After use my skin felt soft and clean. I felt like the brush helped my cleanser go further. The brush head was easy to rinse off and the included brush cap has plenty of ventilation holes to allow the brush to dry.

The instructions say to use this device morning and night, but I find this might be too much for most skin types. I have been using it most evenings or when I feel my skin needs a deeper clean, e.g. after wearing makeup. I have also used it in the shower which was just as easy as using it over the sink, but it has slipped out of my hand once due to the shape and smoothness.

Overall I feel that this device is nice to have but definitely not necessary. It does little more than a manual face brush in terms of cleansing, but I think the massaging head will be beneficial and soothing - it’s a shame you have to purchase it separately.

Tips: Rinse the brush thoroughly after each use and make sure no water gets under the brush head as this is where the charging port is.

I don’t think it’s necessary to use twice a day as thrust may be too harsh on the skin.

My travel buddy

I absolutely love this little device and it’s such a good wee size for travel or even to pop onto the handbag if you’re getting ready at a friends place etc. I love to use my gel cleanser with it and it feels like it gets right into my pores and cleans everything! My feels like a baby’s bum afterwards. Doesn’t take too long to charge and the battery lasts a while! I love washing my face with this, feels like a little bit of luxury in my own home on a budget.

Tips: Wet the brush head and then apply cleanser onto it, use in circular motions on the face.

Amazing! Even the boyfriend enjoyed it!

I was so happy when I received this in mail. I used it that very night. It’s amazing. It’s easy to grip and very user friendly and leaves your face feeling very soft. My boyfriend asked to used and found it be really good also. He asked if we could get the massage attachment for after he’s washed his face. Definitely will looking out for it and will be using this cleansing brush everyday. I like that it is rechargeable and that the cord came with it means you aren’t paying a fortune on batteries.

Soft bristles, deep clean

I loved the fact that this Sonic Cleansing Brush is rechargeable and doesn't require batteries to operate. Batteries are a particular bugbear of mine so I was relieved to find it quick and easy to charge through my computer with the USB cable. The Brush itself was small enough to fit into the palm of my hand and is easy to operate with a button on the top that you gentle press.

The brush itself has two speeds and for me, I found the faster speed to be more effective in cleansing my skin. The bristles are super soft and I found they got into all the nooks and crannies for a thorough clean. The bristles felt really nice on my skin and didn't drag it, leaving it feeling energized and thoroughly clean. The lower speed was very gentle and my 11 year old daughter loved using it on her face to cleanse it.

I found that putting the cleanser onto my face and then using the brush was more effective that adding the cleanser to the brush and loved the feel of my skin after using this. It's handy that you can buy new heads so you could (if you are a family of females) use this between you!

I thought that this was a reasonably priced product that definitely does what it says it does. The fact that it is shower proof is also an added bonus as there were times when I would cleanse my face in the shower in the morning to save time.

A quality product that I would definitely recommend!

I only have positive things to say

My first impression was that the brush looks modern and chic. I think the colours are very cute and feminine. The shape and size are very comfortable to hold. The bristles are extremely soft, feel nice against my face and it's easy to clean after each use.

It's quick to charge and if you use it twice daily (as recommended) that's still only two minutes a day, so each charge should last a long time.

I've found it easy to use in the shower (yes, it's waterproof!). The material is non slippery even when wet.

The next best thing about this brush is that each use takes only one minute. It's so easy to use, it feels effortless. There are instructions on how to move it across your face but it's pretty intuitive.

After using it daily for a week and a half I've noticed less pimples (pimples have been bothering me for months) and my skin feels softer and smoother. I definitely plan to continue using it.

Overall, I think the brush is high quality and I recommend it as a nice luxury. It would also make a lovely gift.
