The backbone of any good beauty routine is proper skin cleansing. Dirty skin, full of clogged pores, and covered with dead skin, isn’t going to be able to respond well to any topical product. It doesn’t matter what type of serums, creams or treatments you are using, whether they are cheap or expensive, if you don’t start with a clean face, you may as well not bother.
On the other hand, a clean face, with fresh and exfoliated skin will in turn make any product work as effectively as possible. 
I have used exfoliating cloths as my basic face washing technique for several years. Not the disposable ones with the cleanser already in them, but a loofah type washrag. Pretty basic. I didn’t really know what I was missing.
I had used a facial brush a few years ago, a gift from hubs. When the head attachment broke after only a few uses, I told him.. “I don’t try to pick out your tools….you don’t try to pick out mine!” LOL. It was a sweet gesture by him but he doesn’t try to pick out my skin care stuff for me anymore. I get lot’s of candles, though. I made a halfhearted attempt to replace the brush, but was put off by prices I thought were absurd for what you get. So it was with satisfaction that I recently amped up my facial cleansing routine with Pretika’s Sonic Dermabrasion Facial Brush. Not only did they price it fairly, but it is a substantial machine, and well made.
It comes with an extra brush head and a handy charger. It can be used in or out of the shower, making it really easy to incorporate in to your daily get beautiful regime.
With two speeds, it is gentle enough to use every day. For cleansing, simply start with a damp face, apply your favorite face wash, either to your face directly or on the brush. Turn the Sonic Dermabrasion brush to your desired speed, push the power button one time for high and twice for low,then begin. Press the brush firmly against your skin and and move it in upward, circular motions. You can stay on each area for about 20 seconds. Making sure you’ve covered your forehead, nose cheeks and chin. I also like to do my neck down to my collarbone. I do a overall sweep of my whole face at the end. Rinse well, and you are done. I’m enjoying the addition of this facial brush and I feel like my skin care routine is enhanced by the gentle exfoliation I get with this skin care tool. My skin looks and feels clear and clean and my make up goes on smoothly. My pores look so much smaller, especially along the sides of my nose. Studies have shown that electronic facial brushes are simply more effective than a washcloth and soap for cleansing, stimulating circulation for cleaning clogged pores.  And I believe it now! Totally converted. You can use this with microdermabrasion creams as well, just swap out the microdermabrasion product with  your cleanser, using the brush the same way, simply paying special attention to avoid your eye area.
 
Another great product from Pretika is their SonicPulse Facial Brush.
Kind of the next level of facial brushes as you are getting a multi-use skin care tool. This pretty but sturdy machine combines High Frequency Vibration Cleansing technology with a micro Pulsating Vibration Massage Probe to give you three ways to use it. Gentle enough for every day use, you can use it on cleanse only, massage only or combined.And water resistant, so you can use it in the shower
Using it as a cleansing brush, it removes the topmost layer of dry, flaking skin cells. You can use it with your favorite facial wash, scrubs or even microdermabrasion treatments. This will help prepare your skin for your treatment products. Use the same upward circular motions I described with the Sonic Facial Brush.
To use it in the Micro-Pulsating Vibration Massage mode, you remove the brush head and use the probe to massage your skin creams or serums into your skin for maximum absorption. I love a device that helps my skin respond to the different serums and lotions that I use.
Combining treatments is easy using the mode button and you can feel the massage and vibration while cleansing. Very nice. It comes with a compact charging cradle and with an extra brush head. A great addition to your daily routine! Pretika has graciously offered on of you the chance to win a SonicPulse Facial Brush. Just click HERE to go to the entry form.

    I like your review about the facial brush. I have always tried lotions to try reduce the large pores on my face. I never heard that there was a facial brush that could possible reduce the size of my pores. It also removes cell debris to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and pore size. This is something that I would consider buying.
