Magnitone Face Brush Cleansing System Review

Keeping your skin clean, smooth and well exfoliated can be a tedious routine at times. You have to buy tons of different products and spend ‘hours’ every day tending to your skin. The Magnitone Brush Cleansing System makes keeping your skin healthy and good looking so much easier.

Magnitone Face Brush Cleansing System review

What are you buying?

The Magnitone London BareFaced! Vibra Sonic Face Brush Cleansing System (model number: ML02PG) is essentially a power tool for your skin. The brush contains a battery-driven motor that moves a brush along the skin, helping to cleanse the skin without aggravating it.

You can set the brush to move in a back and forth or oscillating motion. Both types of movements are incredibly gentle, something that is especially good for users with sensitive skin.

With the cleaning process feeling like a massage, rather than the scrubbing routine we are used to, it is hard to believe that it cleans anything. But it cleans, and quite effectively at that.

As the brush moves, it empties pores of any accumulated dirt and oil. These two culprits are often the cause of skin problems such as acne and pimples. At the same time, it removes dead skin cells from your face – what we normally call exfoliation – leaving it smooth and clear.

The Magnitone cleansing brush makes a huge difference to my skin after a single session. My face feels softer, smoother and certainly brighter. With regular use, the brush has the power to clear away skin breakouts, even out the tone and make your face look a tad younger.

How easy is it to use?

The Magnitone Cleansing System is not a makeup remover. It is therefore highly recommended that you wipe off your makeup before using the brush.

The brush comes with a charged built-in battery, meaning you can get to using it right away. Use the on/off button to power on the brush and choose the brush movement you desire. If you look at the instructions that accompany the brush, the manufacturer says you can apply a cleanser directly on the brush.

When you are ready to go, place the brush on one part of your face. Wait until you hear a beep to move to another part. You should have a clean face in less than five minutes. Once you are done, rinse out the bristles to remove skin oils and cleanser residue.

Note that the brush is waterproof which means you can use it in the shower and rinse it out after use without worrying about damaging it.

On a full charge, the brush should last three months after which you can use the USB cable to recharge the battery. On user friendliness, I give the Magnitone brush a 4/5. The single mark is taken away because the charging instructions are not very clear. You may have to fiddle around a bit to get it right.

What accessories are included?

The Magnitone Face Brush does not come with any accessories other than the single charging cable. I wish they would include an extra brush head seeing as that you are required to change it every three months and they are not exactly super cheap.

Pros

• The brush is extremely gentle on the skin while also ensuring a thorough cleaning.
• Designed for all skin types. It can be used on dry, oily, combined or sensitive skin.
• Fairly easy to use even for someone who has never handled such a brush.
• Can be used in the shower without damage.

Cons

• The brush loses its effectiveness after three months, meaning you have to buy a new head.
• Figuring out how the charger works can be a bit confusing. The accompanying instructions are not that clear.

Frequently asked questions

One of the things many people ask is whether this brush can be used for both men and women. The answer is a resounding yes. There is nothing in the brush that makes it women-only. It works just as well for men as it does for women.

The second question is whether this brush is better than the manual scrubbing routine normally used to exfoliate and clean the skin. This is up for debate since you would have to scientifically test out the effectiveness of each method. The main difference between the two is that the Magnitone brush is much gentler in action.

Conclusion

If you are looking for a gentler and easier way to keep your skin clean, the Magnitone London BareFaced! Vibra Sonic Face Brush Cleansing System is your answer. It is easy to use, cleans your skin in minutes (saving you plenty of time) and you can carry it with you for on-the-road use.
