finally! Real microdermabrasion at home.
I gave up on exfoliating scrubs last year. The grains were always either too big and scratchy or too small and weak to do anything. Maybe manual exfoliation wasn’t for me.
It took me 2 months before I gave in to the at home microdermabrasion kick. There are several on the market to choose from. Don’t waste your time or money trying to pick one out. Spend the $20 and get L’oreal Refinish Microdermabrasion kit. Since a post-treatment moisturizer is included, you’re really only paying $10 each step. Considering the results this product gives, it’s a steal.
Refinish contains aluminum oxide crystals. Which in case you didn’t know, is the same ingredient used in real microdermabrasions. (Except they use a tool that blasts the crystals into your skin and them sucks them back out.) The first time I used this, I could really tell I was using metal on my face. It made me uncomfortable. I felt like I was rubbing tin foil on me. But by my second treatment, I was over it. Now I don’t even notice it.
Directions say to use it 2-3 times a week. Gently massage into face as you would any other exfoliator, but be MORE gentle. This stuff is no joke. Only do it for 1-2 minutes. Use a timer if you need to.
Then rinse off and notice the baby soft difference. The real magic happens after a couple weeks of consistent use. I’ve been using it every other day for 2 months and my skin is so much clearer.
Like with any other microdermabrasion, chemical peels or retinols, make sure you use adequate sunscreen at all times. This kit conveniently comes with its own moisturizer complete with SPF 15.
This kit is worth every penny. With regular use, it will last at least a month or even more. I will definitely be buying this again when I run out.
Note: To my dismay, this product has been discontinued long ago. You can find it on Ebay for the chest and hands. Only products that work seem to happen. Thanks, L’Oreal.
