Product Review: Neutrogena Microdermabrasion System Kit

Product Description
For softer, more luminous skin today and firmer, younger-looking skin tomorrow, Neutrogena Microdermabrasion System starter kit delivers noticeable results every time you use it.

What's In the Box
  • Microdermabrasion applicator
  • Attachment head
  • 12 rejuvenating puffs
  • Two AA Batteries



What It Is
An electronic skin care device that provides at-home deep exfoliating skin treatment. 

The Cost: $15.99 - $19.99
Neutrogena used to have the Healthy Skin Rejuvenator for about $40 - $50. Compared to that and other similar products, this microdermabrasion system is so affordable. The refills are about $10.99 - $13.99 for 24 puffs.



Pros
  • Affordable
  • Compact and portable
  • Easy to use
  • Deep cleansing
  • Improves skin tone and texture
Cons
  • Battery-operated
  • Might irritate sensitive skin
  • Does not rotate
  • Has only 1 type of puffs


My Personal Experience
I have been using this device since June 2011. It's recommended to be used 3 times a week. I only use it once or twice a week since the exfoliation is pretty strong. It's not harsh, but strong. You'll get a deep exfoliation using this product. The device does not rotate, however. It has two settings but it only vibrates. What I do is move the device in circular motion to get a better result. I also use the lowest setting. I suggest using the higher setting for the body. My skin does improve in tone and texture, but not after one day or two like it claims. It works great after a period of time. I only wish that they have different types of refills for different skin types, such as a gentler type of puffs for sensitive skin.


Bottom Line
I would recommend it for occasional use as a skin treatment.
