No7 Brush Cleanser First Impressions Review

For some time now, beauty companys have released brush cleansers such as the clarisonic skin cleaning brush. I know clarisonic has released two brushes called Mia which has become popular. Then there are other brands which are starting to catch on that the clarisonic's skin cleaning kit is a hit in the beauty community.

I little while ago, I went into Boots and wandered over to the no7 counter and saw they had their own version of the Clarisonic Mia but cheaper. It was around £30 so it wasnt as expensive as the Clarisonic. However the quality might be different since it is a lot cheaper, so I bought it a couple of weeks ago just to try out a brush cleanser.

I have just started trying it out this morning, and thought I might as well do a first impressions review just to let you know my intial thoughts of this product.

So as I said I used it for the first time this morning, and I used the Soap And Glory Peaches And Clean to work with the no7 brush. First of as always I used water to wet my face before hand. Then pumped out 2 lots of the Peaches And Clean cleanser and spread that evenly, on my face so that the brush had something to work with. On this brush there are two power settings, I used the first power setting which is a slow moving setting. I put the brush under the tap for a couple of seconds and started using the brush to cleanse my face.

At first, the brush seemed really harsh and rough on the face which made it a bit painful cleansing the whole of my face. I thought it would be soft and gentle but no it was quite harsh. I dont know if this is because the quality might not be as good as the Clarisonic since it is cheaper. But it seemed harsh for the skin, so I might not consider using this every morning and night.

I would not recommend for people who have very sensitive skin since this would damage the skin a lot more and could be painful in use. Overall this brush did the job by rubbing in the cleanser into my skin but it feels very rough and harsh which might put me off using the brush all the time.
