I can happily say that after 3-4 years of use
I bought this product from Amazon years ago, and I'm still using it to microderm my face. I can happily say that after 3-4 years of use, this product is still going strong for me and is a regular tool in my beauty arsenal. I found that at first, I was using it too often as my skin began to dry out and get rough and flaky looking. However, I was using it about every day in the winter time - I don't know what I was thinking. After that initial experience, I toned it down drastically after doing research that said microdermabrasion should be done no more than once a week - especially when it's a rough pad like this one has.
After that mishap, the rest is history; my skin has never been so soft and glow-y. I use it once a week, run it around the different zones of my face for two minutes as Neutrogena suggests, the whole process takes about 10 minutes. Afterwards, I rinse my face off and complete the rest of my beauty routine (I've written it below). Definitely gets the dead skin off and leaves your skin looking and feeling smoother. I would definitely recommend this little tool to anyone looking to improve the texture of their face in one easy step.
PRO TIP: How I use this tool: (25 year old female, sensitive skin, combination oily in T-zone, dry forehead and around mouth)
1) Wash my face with a non-irritating cleanser (I'm currently using Biore charcoal face wash)
2) Apply toner (I use witch hazel)
3) Exfoliate using this product - I use this microdermabrasion system once a week
4) Serums (I use vitamin C and hyaluronic acid serums)
5) Moisturize! Very important step, don't skip it after using this product
Hope this review helps you guys both make a good decision and figure out how to use the thing!
