For my trip to India, I was trying to pack light and did not want to lug around my Clarisonic, so I was searching for an alternative when I came across the Cargo blu ray Polishing Cloths:
After using this several times, I can say that I highly recommend this for travelers, or for those who are not yet ready to splurge on the Clarisonic. These cloths are designed to exfoliate the skin, remove makeup and prevent blackheads and acne, and prime the skin so moisturizer and serums are able to absorb better. I use these around 3-4 times a week, any more and your skin will get irritated. Simply apply cleanser to your face, wet the cloth, and rub in a circular motion over the skin. Rinse the cloth after use and hang to dry. I follow the box and do about 10 circles on each area of the face and that seems to work well for me. Overall my skin feels clean and fresh after using these, and I really do feel the exfoliation. These cloths are reusable so I use one cloth about 3-4 times (1 cloth per week) and you can really start to see the buildup on the cloth. That is why you need to rinse it, and should toss them after a few uses.
You get 20 cloths for $15, which is a heck of a lot cheaper than the $200 Clarisonic. I thought each sheet was quite large for my face, so I cut them in half and it fits perfectly onto my fingers, allowing a more efficient exfoliation. Overall these are a great product and I would definitely purchase again....though the first box will last me awhile. =)

Wow, this is a great find. I've have been wanting to get a Clairsonic for awhile now but I just can't justify spending that much right now. This would be a great alternative to hold me over until I can get one.
ReplyDeleteOoh, very nice! I've seen these on the shelves at Sephora, but haven't yet purchased. Have you tried the Clarisonic Mia? It's compact enough that it's easy to travel with :)
