One of the new Sephora Collection Spring 2015 Beauty Tools is the Sephora Collection Cleaning Me Softly Facial Cleansing Brush*. Available in pink (pictured) as well as black it is a very affordable facial brush for deep cleansing. It has contoured handle that feels great in the hand, and there is a plastic cap to cover the bristles for storage and travel. I really think this product is a great idea, but unfortunately I do not find it comfortable to use.
Although the Sephora Collection Cleaning Me Softly Facial Cleansing Brush feels quite soft against my skin when dry, as soon as I added cleanser and water, it becomes almost abrasive. I appreciate that it is helping give a deep clean, but I don’t think anything that feels like that is something I want to rub against my face. It does have great reviews online, so it might just be my own skin since I am used to washing my face with my hands, but this did not work for me.
I am considering using the Sephora Collection Cleaning Me Softly Facial Cleansing Brush on my body instead of my face but it actually feels so rough when wet I am hesitant to do even that. It’s also clearly marketed as a facial brush, so I wanted to share my honest opinion on how it works as one. Unfortunately, a good premise but not a product that worked for me.
Do you use a facial cleansing brush?
