5-in-1 Electric Facial Cleansing Brush – Cleanse, Exfoliate & Extract

Five attachment heads on one handle, which is the whole argument for this over buying four separate gadgets. It cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, massages, and works product in — and at £14.99 it's the cheapest way to find out whether you're actually the sort of person who uses a facial device, before spending £40 on one.

What each head does

• Soft brush — daily cleansing, the one you'll use most
• Exfoliating head — once or twice a week for dull, rough-feeling skin
• Extraction head — gentle suction for congested areas, mainly the nose and chin
• Massage head — works serums in and eases tension along the jaw
• Latex sponge — for applying and blending, or a final gentle buff

How to use it

1. Wet your face. Attach the head you want — they twist on and off
2. Cleanser on the brush, not your face
3. Small circles, sixty seconds, avoiding the eye area
4. Rinse, detach the head, rinse that too, and let both dry properly

Daily with the brush head. Exfoliation twice a week maximum. The extraction head no more than once a week — it's the one that's easy to overdo.

A word on the extraction head

Suction tools leave temporary red marks if you hold them still. Keep it moving, use the lowest setting on your cheeks, and don't go over the same spot twice in a session. Never use it on active spots, broken skin, or anywhere with visible capillaries.

Please read before buying

Avoid the eye area with every attachment. Don't use the exfoliating or extraction heads if you have active acne, rosacea, eczema, or any broken skin — wait until things have settled. If you're on a prescription retinoid, skip exfoliation entirely and check with whoever prescribed it. Cosmetic appliance, not a medical device.

Questions we get asked

Is it waterproof? Splash-resistant. Fine at the sink, not designed for the shower.

Should I buy this or the sonic silicone brush? This one if you want to try several things cheaply. The silicone brush if you only want cleansing, want it done better, and want it in the shower.

Do the heads wear out? The brush and sponge will eventually. Replace them when the bristles splay.

Which colour? No functional difference. Pink, blue and yellow.
