The facial brushes are not new to the market, these brushes have been used since long ago, remember those round brushes with wooden or plastic handles they had no batteries and they were used manually by circular motion to clean the skin.
With so much technology and innovation in everything that we use in our daily life, we cannot fail to see that we are facing a new generation of products including beauty products.
Today I’m going to talk about something innovative and that today is very fashionable.
I particularly love them as an aesthetician and I highly recommend them, because having a good daily facial cleansing routine is usually very simple, but what we are really doing well?
Many of us wash our face very quickly either tired or lazy, but it really does not know is that daily cleaning of our skin should be much more than simply washing our face to get up or lie down, we should pay more attention and have a better cleaning that ultimately is going to mean keeping our skin young and healthy.
WHAT IS THE FACIAL CLEANSING BRUSH?
These cleansing brushes are an electronic tool with a brush head with soft or strong bristles having rotational movements used to clean the skin, helps eliminate waste, dirt, and makeup that is trapped in the pores of the skin. Cleaning with these brushes is much deeper and more uniform than we normally do with our hands, electronic brushes to facial cleansing have the ability to offer cleansing, exfoliation, and massage in one step.
The facial cleansing brushes are useful for daily cleaning of our skin, in fact, cab estheticians have all these professional brushes, and use it to better clean the skin before any treatment, and that having skin completely clean, the products we use, will be better absorbed by the skin and will give a better result.
These brushes come in different forms, there are those who only have wave motions and those with vibration or SONIC. They are super helpful in cleaning our skin.
WHAT BENEFITS BRINGS US TO USE THEM?
First: A good cleaning, this helps us to keep our pores free of impurities and especially free of makeup residue.
Second: When you finish using it, we will apply our body milk, moisturizer, or any other you use, the absorption of the cream by our skin will be higher.
Third: Constant use produces hyperemia in the skin, ie, stimulate blood circulation, and thus the production of collagen and elastin, imagine what can be achieved if, after use, we stand firming cream, we would see very good results.
HOW DO WE USE THEM?
They can be used every day, especially the soft bristle, its use is very simple it is due to wet the skin and place the soap or cleansing cream, get wet a little brush and then gently placed on the skin, and already on and with the speed already adjusted, preferably the softer, start with oscillatory movements all over the skin to massage the face.
A very important thing that I want to emphasize is that many of my clients love to exfoliate the skin using these brushes and you have to be careful with this because exfoliate the skin every day is not recommended for healthy skin, is why we always recommend stronger special brush bristles to scrub once or twice a week depending on skin type. For daily use, a facial cleanser is recommended the soft bristle brush, and does not damage the skin.
NEVER use the dry brush. Always wet the brush before use it and always with your soap or cleanser.
The water temperature is very important to me, do not use very cold or very hot water, use with almost cold-warm water, we do not want that when washing and use cold water pores close and is more difficult to cleaning or using very hot water we produce a red skin caused by the dilatation of the vessels.
CAUTION Do not share toothbrushes with other people if you do change the head. These facial brushes have the practice of switching to convenience heads for every skin type.
HOW LONG SHOULD I USE IT IN EVERY CLEANING?
No more than 1 minute, usually have instructions in the manual (it is always advisable to read the manual that brings each brush). The most common is 15 sec. in the area of the cheeks, then go to the area of the nose and chin 15 sec. and finish on the forehead by another 15 sec.
Never think that more is better, people tend to go wrong with this, as they believe that more time washing your skin with these brushes helps to better clean the skin, but this is not so, why manufacturers have created timeouts in its use time limit to reach the cleaning brush itself off, that’s the clue that we should not use it more.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
These brushes should not be used in the most sensitive areas of our face, as in the eye area, that area is very delicate and misuse may cause us sagging, so it is good to use near that area with a minimum speed.
Sensitive skin with diagnosed rosacea or very thin skins should not use them because they can damage or irritate.
Particularly I highly recommend it for skin prone to acne as these brushes are the perfect tool to clean these skins.
TIPS
Always at the end of your facial cleansing, do not forget to use a good moisturizer and a good sunscreen before leaving home!
