    I bought one recently - i love it use it all the time. It leaves your skin soft and there is a noticable difference imo. I have to make sure i moisturise afterward because it does tend to leave my skin quite tight and dry.

    these are available in boots yeah?

    How much did it cost you actually? I know it's probably a gimmick but it's gotten great reviews on amazon and stuff. I think I'll have to get myself one! :)

    They are around the 20euro mark in Boots but Dunnes have a special offer at the moment you get 14 pads with the wave. The refils are 7euro or there abouts for one month's supply.

    I bought mine in boots for 14.95. It comes with some of the cleansing pads. I bought the refills/cleansing pads in another chemist because boots was all out for 4.95.

    Dunnes has a special offer on them. My mam bought one today. Theres 33% off, so its 9.99.

    I used mine for the first time today and i'm impressed. It left my skin soft. I had to moisturize afterwards because my face was tight but its like this every time i wash my face.

    It looks a tad gimmicky and unnecessary; I don't really get the point of why you need a gadget to cleanse your face, especially since it looks just like those lovely cleansing pads that Neutrogena do, except with extra battery power. Having said that I really like Neutrogena stuff, it's probably the best high street brand that I've ever used so I could be tempted.

    Does it take off make up or is it for after make up removal?

    I don't wear makeup so i wouldn't know, but i'm going to take a guess and say you'd have to take off makeup before using it.

    Bought one in Dunnes last Friday for 9.99 and its really good.

    It says in the ad that it does but I doubt it would take off mascara.

    They're for sale in Pennys for €8.50 with 14 pads and the refils are €3.50, while stocks last etc. Picked one up today, so shall see how it goes :)

    Im intruiged by this! It's been all over the telly. But what does it do that a decent nuetrogena scrub doesnt? does it vibrate or does it oscillate or what? looks a tad gimmicky to me and i dont think i would keep buying the refills


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,503 ✭✭✭✭jellie


    bought 1 yesterday to try it. found it a very weird sensation on my face. didnt notice anything special about my skin afterwards, but i did notice a good bit of dirt on the pad! :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,846 ✭✭✭✭eth0_


    It's a total con - it's no better than just using one of the neutrogena facewash pads!
    It gives the impression it has an exfoliating effect - it doesn't.

    Don't waste your money on it. Very disappointing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    It's nothing special, your face feels the same afterwards as it would with a normal cleanser. Also the round pads are awkward for cleansing around your nose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 241 ✭✭artnotort


    it didnt feel like it was doing much cleaning when i was using but afterwards my skin did feel pretty soft.

    :Di bought one in dunnes last week for €9.99 and I love it! I know I only have it a short while but it does work! My skin can get very oily and sometimes rough but since i started using it, my skin feels normal and I'm not shiny at all! I was against buying it because I was thinking 'surely if it really does wonders for your skin, then it wouldnt cost less than €20!' but i found it worked wonders! :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,345 ✭✭✭SarcasticFairy


    I like it. It doesn't really suds up like it does on the ad, but it does my my skin feel really soft and lovely.
    I've used it to take off make up, but you then have to take off your eye make-up seperately, because obviously you can't go at your eyes with this giant vibrating thing.
    Bit dissappointed in general, but it did make my skin soft!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 469 ✭✭Melted M&M


    I got it and I really love it go get one it will change your life


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,064 ✭✭✭smileysurfer


    I got one and used it a few times, your skin feels way softer afterwards, Its doesnt take off any make up tho ( it kind of clogs the pads) so I suggest taking off all make up first and then using it.
