Gentle enough for daily use, the Facial Brush works with all skin types and has a replaceable microfiber head that is nonporous and bacteria resistant. The brush is also safe for use in the shower, thanks to its water-resistant, cordless design.
One-Step Exfoliation, Cleansing, and Smoothing
This easy-to-use Facial Brush offers cleansing and exfoliation in one step. The brush's Micro-Pulsating Vibration Cleansing Technology works with your skin's natural elasticity to deeply cleanse and gently exfoliate. Two cleansing and exfoliating speeds are offered: a low-powered "green light" speed for gentle exfoliation (suitable for delicate and sensitive skin) and a high-powered "red light" speed for more rigorous exfoliation and deeper cleansing.
The Facial Brush includes a timer that beeps after 20 seconds--the recommended treatment time for each area of the face (forehead, nose, chin, and cheeks). With the built-in timer, you'll never have to worry that you're working the skin too little or too much. For added convenience, the Facial Brush comes with a charging cradle and built-in rechargeable battery.
Works with Your Daily Skincare Routine
The penetrative technology of the Facial Brush works well with your daily beauty products--from cleansers and scrubs to micro-dermabrasion creams. Simply hydrate or dampen your face with warm water, dot the product on each area of your face, and apply the Facial Brush as directed.
What's in the Box
SonicDermabrasion Facial Brush, charging cradle (120 volts), two (2) microfiber bristle applicators, and a built-in rechargeable NiMh cell battery.

5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful product,
This review is from: Pretika SonicDermabrasion Facial Brush (Health and Beauty)
I purchased the Pretika Sonic Dermabrasion brush about 4 weeks ago, and it is a wonderful product! Originally wanted the clarisonic, but the Pretika is a great alternative and very reasonable price. My skin is combination (oily tzone). I dont have sensitive skin, so I use it daily on the lower setting as part of my regular skin care routine.. and once a week on stronger setting to exfoliate. My skin has never been smoother!! Its glowing, and keeps the blackheads away from my nose! I absolutely love it! I use glytone skin care products, and the brush definitely helps my skin better absorb them. Ive read alot of people who complain about the pretika brush dying on them after a short time... I believe that this will happen if u recharge the brush while its wet. Make sure the brush is completely dry before setting back to charge!! Especially the metal charging plates. I even go a step further, and place a plastic ziploc bag over the charging cradle while i wash my face, to make sure i dont splash water on it. If you take care of this brush, it will take care of you!!

This review is from: Pretika SonicDermabrasion Facial Brush (Health and Beauty)
*I originally gave this brush four stars, but have since downgraded my review to two stars since it stopped working after seven months.*
I've only had my Pretika for about a week, so I will be sure to update this review since several people have commented that it breaks down after a month or two. In the short time I've had it, though, it works really well! Like other reviewers, I really wanted to buy a Clarisonic brush, but couldn't justify spending that much on a tool that is essentially just a glorified face cleaner. (I usually trust the advice of dermatologists Leslie Baumann and Neal Schultz, and they both agreed that it will *not* reduce wrinkles, but will rather just deep clean your skin.) Although many people think that the the Clarisonic is an exfoliator, it does NOT exfoliate; instead, it deep cleans your skin so that your skin care and anti-aging products can better penetrate the epidermis. The same is true for this Pretika, and I've found that it does a really good job of cleansing. I usually have to wash my face twice at night to get rid of makeup -- once with a cleansing oil and then once again with a regular cleaner. Even after that, I usually find traces of my makeup on the cotton pad I swipe my toner on with. Since using the Pretika, however, the cotton pad has been completely clean -- with no makeup residue! Since I had read reviews on other sites that said that this Pretika brush is very harsh when compared to the Clarisonic, I was worried that it would be too harsh on my sensitive, rosacea-prone skin, but it's just been fine. I've only been using it once a day (at night, to deep clean and get rid of my makeup) and am still using the sensitive setting, but the brush feels really soft and it hasn't irritated my skin at all. On a final note, one of the biggest selling points for me is that this gets rid of the flaky skin that my Retin-A leaves in its wake. Twice a week, I've been using the Olay Microdermabrasion kit to get rid of the flakes and it works fantastically for that, but the flaky skin comes back and you can only use the Olay kit twice a week. The Pretika gets rid of the dry, flaky skin, and leaves my skin feeling really soft. So far, this has been a great purchase. UPDATE ON 3/27/10: I've cut back to using this just once a day on the sensitive setting since twice a day seemed to be a bit too much for my skin, but it's still working great. I haven't had to charge it at all since I first bought it. At the same time that I started using this, I also started using Skin Laboratory's Lactic 35% & Glycolic 25% Combo Gel Peel, and the two products have made a huge difference in my skin! The blackheads that I've always had on my nose are gone for the first time ever, and my skin looks radiant and fresh. I'll be sure to update this review again to see it holds up longer than just a few months. UPDATE ON 5/4/10: I just downgraded my original five-star review to three stars. I've had this for two months now, and the bristles have developed mold at the bases, even though I dry it off every time I use it. It also rusts at the base, and I've had to clean that up, too. I did contact Pretika's customer service about the mold issue, and they assure me that the brushes are anti-microbial and offered to send me replacement brush heads. So their customer service is really outstanding! That being said, I really don't know how much longer this brush will last. Has anyone else experienced this problem with mold growing on it? Does the Clarisonic brush have the same problem? UPDATE ON 12/26/10: I just received a Clarisonic Mia for Christmas, and the difference between the Clarisonic and the Pretika brush are very noticeable. The Clarisonic brush is *much* softer, and the sonic vibrations are much stronger. If you can afford to buy a Mia (which is the less expensive brush that Clarisonic makes), I would recommend getting that one over this Pretika. For just over twice the cost of this brush, you can have a much nicer one.

5.0 out of 5 stars
no more shiny forehead,
By x "angelmom" (yorkville il) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pretika SonicDermabrasion Facial Brush (Health and Beauty)
i've been using the pretika for about 4 weeks daily. before this my forehead and tzone were very oily. i would wake up in the morning and my face would be soooo greasy i couldn't stand it. about 10 minutes after i applied my makeup my forehead would be super shiny. i am almost 40 years old and my skin tzone has been oily for a few years and my pores just keep getting larger. after using this pretika for a few weeks the oiliness is virtually gone and my pores are definately smaller. i'm not going to say the pores are gone but i see a real improvement in my skin.
before this i have been getting tca peels for over a year with no improvement in oiliness or pore size. especially on my forehead which would almost never peel because it was so oily. i was skeptical because the brush looks like it barely moves. but it does something because it is working. the price is very affordable compared to the other sonic facial systems out there. i think the brush may be a little harsh for those with sensitive skin types. the machine is designed to turn off automatically on the high setting after your treatment is up. i've tried many things for exfoliation and this seems to work great. my pores used to be so clogged i used to say, every pore i have is a blackhead. now they seem much less clogged. i'm very happy with this pretika, and i seriously am very picky and return almost everything i buy.
