Love that 'spa' feeling
The experience of using the skin rejuvenator I found most appealing for the sense of relaxation and glamour I felt. The overall sense was of a warm massage for the facial areas - certainly a treat for those like myself who, though well past the age where wrinkles may be expected to evaporate, love a sense of beauty and pampering.

Great product, does what it says it will - but refills aren't available!
This is a great little product - Neutrogena took the vibrating rejuvenator unit that it used for its Microdermabrasion kit and added a velcro piece that allows you to attach the rejuvenator puffs.

Great product, does what it says it will - but refills aren't available!, December 9, 2007
This is a great little product - Neutrogena took the vibrating rejuvenator unit that it used for its Microdermabrasion kit and added a velcro piece that allows you to attach the rejuvenator puffs. Instructions tell you to use it for 2-3 minutes per facial area - I use it for 5-6 minutes on my entire face just before jumping in the shower in the morning. It replaces my scrub a few times a week. So far I've noticed drastically smoother skin - and at 27 I am looking for something to really scrub away dead skin cells and maybe even out my skin a bit. This feels like it is doing both. The puff foams up with water, and is definitely a bit scratchy. There is a pleasant smell when you are using it.
I had to take off two stars for the following: price. It's overpriced. The unit comes with batteries, but you're still paying $35-39 for a low-tech electronic vibrating device and 12 puffs. Twelve. That will last you 3 or 4 weeks at the most.
The second star is lost by the puffs themselves. They can't be found anywhere. I've looked online and in the store. I'm yet to find them - so I am hoping I do so before I run out of the ones that came with the unit.
UPDATE 1/4/08 - refill puffs are now available on both Amazon and major retail stores. There was quite a delay there, though, so I know the early adopters were really sweating it out. Whew!

Love that 'spa' feeling, January 2, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The experience of using the skin rejuvenator I found most appealing for the sense of relaxation and glamour I felt. The overall sense was of a warm massage for the facial areas - certainly a treat for those like myself who, though well past the age where wrinkles may be expected to evaporate, love a sense of beauty and pampering. It would be an excellent gift - unless, of course, it were given to anyone who'd be insulted at the thought of needing 'rejuvenation.'
The product leaves one's skin feeling very smooth and soft, and there is no irritation (as one might have with certain scrubs). The pressure is light - sufficient to give the 'massage' effect, but not at all rough to the touch. Overall, it is a delightful beauty product.

Love the softness and fresh look of my skin..., January 3, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
After using the Skin Rejuvenator for several days, I have to say I love the feel and look of my skin...it feels tight, smooth and appears glowing and healthy. I was amazed at the ease of use of this product. You simply install the batteries (had a little trouble getting the cover off the back) clip on the attachment head, and stick a rejuvenating pad on the attachment. Simple!! I've been using mine in the shower...apply a little water to the pad, and massage my face and neck for several min., concentrating on the areas I feel need it most. It suggests focusing on problems areas for 1-2 min...for me this won't work, as my skin is really sensitive, and the abrasion is too much, so I just focus on those areas for about 20-30 seconds before moving on. The skin abound my mouth was fairly sensitive the first time I used it, but after figuring out what works for me, I can't begin to tell you how awesome this product is!! For the price, there is NO WAY to beat it. I have tried peels, other 'rejuvenators', exfoliants...and this is by far the best product I've run across yet. I'm not sure what the additional pads run, but you bet it's worth it!!
Don't miss this inexpensive "trip to the spa!"

The secret of my glowing skin is lots of kissing! -Mallika Sherawat, January 16, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I love beauty products; creams, lotions, scrubs, exfoliators, masks, you name it I love it. When I saw this Neutrogena product up for grabs I jumped at the chance. The product makes certain claims, and I have only been using it for about 3 weeks, so I haven't been able to see if it lives up to all the clinical study results, but this is my experience so far.
Dermatologist Clinical Study Proves: (as stated on the back of the box)
instantly: 91% had smoother, more luminous skin
1 Week: 88% had visible improvement in fine lines
4 Weeks: 88% had significantly reduced appearance of wrinkles or age spots
8 Weeks: 72% had substantial improvement in firmness
The directions are easy, apply the little puff to the attachment head, press down firmly, wet, and then snap onto the system applicator. Massage face 1 to 2 minutes. Rinse face, dry. Discard puff.
With my first use, I confess to not enjoying it. The vibration made me a little woozy and I felt cross eyed. It was really rather uncomfortable. The results however were well worth it. My face felt so soft and my skin looked fantastic. So I kept on with the treatments, and after awhile the vibration didn't make me feel sea sick or cross eyed.
I have really sensitive skin and a touch of rosacea, so I was afraid it might irritate my skin or make it overly red. I was pleased that after about 5 minutes the redness caused by the puff went away.
In the 3 short weeks I have noticed a big difference with the appearance of my skin, I think it looks healthier, and my pores look fantastic. My skin has never felt so soft and with that result alone I will keep using the product. So far I have been impressed and I will continue to use it.

Brighter, softer skin in just a few weeks!, January 16, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Although I have pretty good skin already, as I approach my forties, I am every more conscious of preventive measures regarding skin care and health in general. Because of this, for the last year or so, I've been interested in trying a home microdermabrasion kit, but had not yet taken the time to do so. Then Amazon Vine posted the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Rejuvenator for review, and I jumped at the chance. Having long trusted the Neutrogena brand, I felt comfortable trying their latest skin care gadget.
Neutrogena didn't let me down. From the very first use, I could tell a difference. My skin felt softer, looked a little brighter. Now, after several weeks of use, I would even venture the expression `soft as a baby's butt' in regards to my skin.
The Rejuvenator is easy to use, with disposable pads that simply stick sort of Velcro-like onto the device. The pads have some kind of cleanser in them, and they create very mild suds as you apply them to your face with the tool. The cleanser has a very light aroma that is simply clean and fresh, as you may expect from Neutrogena. At the time I wrote this review, I was able to easily find refill pads in several local retail stores and online.
The tool itself fits comfortably in the hand, without excess weight. However, once you turn it on, the vibration is very strong in the hand, to the point I can feel it all the way into my wrist. While not painful, it is a bit weird and I still haven't become quite used to it after several weeks of use. Still, requiring only a few minutes of use three times a week, I can live with this, especially after seeing the effect it has on my skin.
While the vibration feels a bit strong in the hand, it does not feel so on the face, which is good. It is very comfortable as it works the skin, not at all abrasive as I feared it might be.
All in all, I have to rate this unit with five stars. I am very pleased with the effects it has had so far and have already purchased refill pads with the intent of continuing using it indefinitely.

Love it, I can't even think of being without it., January 9, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Oh this is fantastic! I also own the other face exfoliator from Neutrogena that requires the purchase of a sponge and the exfoliating cream, totaling about $35 for refills of both and while it was a bit messy and it worked okay, it doesn't compare to this! This stuff is truly great, the pods are easy to use, they Velcro in and once wet, massage the face in a seamless manner, I enjoyed the ease and comfort while my face felt like glass. After first use my skin looked like it was air brushed, which is before I even applied makeup.
In fact, okay this sounds crazy, but my boyfriend asked me if I need to take a pregnancy test because I had this ethereal glow on my face. I had to break it to him that it was a face scrub! Sounds ridiculous but it made me laugh, this is one product where I feel for once will not disappoint me. This really produced results, I haven't seen my face this clear ever. Another thing is how often this can be used, I no longer have to wait days to have this smooth skin, not to mention my face serum and cream sinks in like a dream, waking up with clear and smooth skin with a glow is so easy now.

I Love this product!, December 16, 2007
I love this product and the refills are now available. My skin looks and feels softer? healthier? younger? smoother?-ALL OF THE ABOVE! I have sensitive skin but I have had no issues with it. I am using it every second day and though it does not recommend it, I was using the puff over two applications and I got plently of suds and benefits from the second use compared to the first. Now, that the puffs are available (finally-I was beginning to get concerned!)-I may continue to still get two uses out of one puff-why waste? In the past I have tried Mary Kay, Clinique and Dove exfoliation systems, but I found this one easier use to and with much better benefits- I even use it on my husband!

Much Better Deal than Pro Treatments, December 31, 2007
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
My wife and I have both used this and really like the results. There was a noticable glow and we had a more even complexion right after the first treatment. There are several of these products out there but this one is nice because the the pads have the cream built into them...just add water. Another we have requires you apply the abrasive mixture before using, then clean the spongy pad afterwards, a pain. With this one you just remove the old pad and rinse, very easy. I am not sure what replacement pads cost, but considering what you'd pay at the dermatologist or beauty salon, you are still getting a better deal. The pads foam up nicely and you can really feel it working. My wife and I both liked the scent of the the solution, not too harsh.
If I had to nitpick the only drawbacks would be the requirement to buy new pads after the initial supply runs out, the fact that the liquid can run into your eyes, and that the vibrations might be a bit too strong for some. I personally liked it though. It was hard to open the battery door the first time, but once you get it, then it is fairly easy after that.
Those are minor nitpicks though. If you want an easy to use, relatively inexpensive and effect battery powered dermabration tool, then I doubt you could do better without spending much much more! In fact, I am going to go give myself another treatment right now! ;']

A Skeptic Converted, December 26, 2007
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I'm always suspicious of products that sell hardware for a reasonable price but that require you to purchase software that only that manufacturer makes (e.g., razors that only take expensive cartridges from the same maker, cheap cameras that require you to purchase expensive film, etc.). So when I saw this product, I assumed it would be the same sort of scam. To my amazement, the Neutrogena Rejuvenator not only works, it works really well and is idiot-proof to use and, most shockingly of all, results really are noticeable right away. It will take more use to see whether in the long-run it minimizes fine lines and reduces pore size as its packaging insert claims, but right out of the box it makes skin super soft and smooth both to the eye and to the touch. The day after my first use I ran into a friend at the gym whom I hadn't seen for several months and he told me that I looked really cute and like I was about 30 years old. For the record, I'm 48 and I wasn't wearing any make-up.
The Rejuvenator couldn't be easier to use (at least once you get the battery cover open, which is a bit difficult and so my only criticism). You pop in the two supplied batteries, open the box of puffs, wet a puff and stick it to the snap-on attachment, which has a rough surface that the pads stick to. Push the switch to "on" and the pad vibrates, creating a soapy lather that helps the pad glide over your skin. As some people have noted, the vibrations are kind of intense, but not painful. After you use it for about five minutes, you switch it off, pull off the puff and throw the puff away. Rinse your face and you've got instantly softer skin. My skin is extremely sensitive and there is no reaction to this product other than a slight reddening of my cheeks which goes away after a few minutes. Also on the plus side, since unlike a scrub there are no granules that get washed down the grain, presumably this product is better for the environment. And although you will have to buy replacement pads at a cost of about ten dollars a month, it still works out to less than a decent scrub and works a lot better. So I am sold on this product and find myself looking forward to using it. What a pleasant holiday surprise this has been!
Update: January 1, 2008 -- Some people have noted that the pads either don't get foamy enough or that the lather runs into their eyes. It helps to wet the pad throughly, per the instructions, then squeeze it out gently to remove excess moisture. This keeps the lather from running into your eyes when you do your forehead. I'm still in love with this product and have already ordered replacement pads. I find I look forward to the days when I can use the Rejuvenator. My skin has never looked or felt so good.

Product provides good cleaning, February 7, 2008
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I hate to use anything to wash my face other than my hands. But I knew I wasn't getting as good as a cleaning as my face needed. With so many face cleaning products on the market and most not living up to expectations, I figured I had nothing to lose.
I have normal to sensitive skin. When my skin was feeling more sensitive, I didn't use the product. I had no issues using the treatment. I liked the smell and the gentle pressure. The soap is just right -- neither too bubbly nor too dry.
The pad doesn't feel soft or like a massage -- more running a rough shower sponge over your face. It doesn't hurt or get uncomfortable -- I imagine the roughness will bother people with sensitive skin.
My face felt good after using it. I'm fortunate I have soft skin on my face, so it was already soft. I have some brown spots on my cheek (I am not 40 yet!) and the cleanser didn't lighten those. My face looked the same the next day. So the effects are temporary -- like having given your face a good cleansing.
The low and high settings felt fine on me. Although they might be too harsh for some. I adjusted the setting to low when going around the eyes and sensitive areas. Then back on high for regular areas.
Pros:
* Thorough cleansing
* Nice scent
* Easy to use
* Just buy replacement pads
Cons:
* Rough
* Doesn't decrease pore size, wrinkles, and age spots as promised.
* Lack of various types of pads (sensitive, oily, etc.)
Verdict:
I haven't decided if I will buy replacement pads yet as I haven't found them in the store to check the price. But if the price is reasonable, it's a nice product for a good cleansing that I use twice a week.
Score: 3.5
