Tried and Tested: A gadget that promises glowing skin
“I’ve been curious about cleansing brushes for a while, but anything involving too much faff isn’t going to appeal for long.
Thankfully, Pulsaderm Buddy (a smaller version of the device, ideal for travelling, or simply if space is limited) is quick and easy to use.
“The kit comes packed in a silver wash bag — complete with adapter/charger and two-brush head attachments: ’normal’ and ’sensitive’ (you can purchase individual replacements as well as different attachments, including make-up sponges and pumice stones).
“After attaching the brush head, you wet your face and the brush and then apply cleanser to your skin.
There are two speed settings, with a faster one for deeper cleans, which make the brush vibrate/pulsate in a sonic motion.
“You gently hold the brush against your skin, moving it around your face, avoiding the eye area, and then rinse your face as normal once done.
“After just one use, I’m quite amazed by how noticeably brighter my skin looks. It feels more polished and clean than usual too.
It’s not something I’d do every day, but just a couple of times a week has improved my complexion – I’m sold!”

Contouring, strobing, mermaid hair... Instagram seems to be responsible for every new beauty trend this year, and here’s another to add to the list. Sales of face masks have increased by nearly 23% over the last year, according to NPD Group, which is attributed to the “multimasking” craze — targeting specific areas of the face with different masks then posting a silly selfie online.
The season of the “gift or splurge?” dilemma continues, with another super-bargain gift set that’s almost too good to give away. From Swedish skincare brand Ole Henrikson, the 3 Little Wonders +Cleanse set contains four daily essentials and at just €88.45, represents a big saving compared to its €157 value (www.lookfantastic.com, free p&p).
