Considering the Koreans live and die by a 10-step skin care routine, it’s easy to see how skin care can quickly become overwhelming (not to mention quite costly!) You’ve got your cleanser, toner, exfoliator, balm, oil, mist and of course the humble jade roller, all of which you’re expected to use at once, right? And while most of us (myself included) are self confessed product hoarders, we’re also pretty time-poor. (Ok, and maybe a little bit lazy at times too.) So when someone tell us there’s a way to reach our minimalist skin care goals and achieve a fresher, brighter and healthier complexion in the process, we sit up and listen.

Enter: Manicare Sonic Mini, a rechargeable facial cleansing brush that works to deeply cleanse your skin in a minute flat (twice a day, that is) and reduce the need for half of your daily skin care steps.
How does it work?
The Sonic Mini works with your favourite cleanser, using sonic vibrations and a soft bristled brush to ensure skin is lifted of all makeup, dirt and impurities. The benefit of the Sonic Mini is that it is clinically proven to be more effective at deeply cleansing your skin than if you were using your hands alone. It also boasts a few added benefits such as doubling to massage your skin (similarly to how a jade roller works), meaning it helps to assist in lymphatic drainage, improving circulation and de-puffing (which are all good things, I promise).
Is it right for me?
For those with sensitive skin, cleansing can often be an issue. Harsh scrubs or foaming cleansers can strip the skin, leaving your complexion open to dryness or irritation. And while the Sonic Mini deeply cleanses your skin – which in turn means better absorption of the products following your cleanser – thanks to its super soft sensitive brush head, the cleansing process remains as gentle as if you were washing your face with your hands. It’s a win-win.
So what does that mean?
The end game is the Manicare Sonic Mini means you can seriously cut down on your daily skin care steps. No double cleansing, exfoliation or facial massage necessary, just your one minute cleanse twice daily to take care of it all in a single step. Say hello to skin that is free from makeup and grime and is perfectly prepped for your favourite serum, moisturiser and/or SPF!
