Most experts will agree that cleansing is an important step in every skin care routine. There are tons of cleansers on the market that can promise to do a lot for your skin. The key is to find one that’s suited for your skin type. Once you’re geared up with your favorite cleanser, you’re likely about to pour some of it into your hands are start massaging it onto your face. But did you know that cleansing with your hands may not be the most effective way to wash your face? Elevate your cleansing routine and make it more effective by using a cleansing brush.

A MORE EFFECTIVE CLEANSE

If you don’t already use a Clarisonic, allow us to introduce you to your skin’s new best friend—if you do use one, well, you know what we’re talking about. A Clarisonic is the ultimate grooming gadget suitable for all skin types—and it cleanses six times better than hands alone. Sign us up!

Paired with your favorite cleanser, a Clarisonic cleansing brush helps to loosen and remove dirt and oil from the skin’s surface. There are many options to choose from—and colors!—but we love the Mia 2. First, it has two speeds—delicate for fragile skin and universal for normal skin—so you can customize your newly-elevated cleansing experience to meet your specific skin needs. Next, it’s equipped with a timer that pulses momentarily to let you when it’s time to move to another part of your face, which is helpful to avoid over-cleansing one spot. And last but certainly not least, the Mia 2 is lightweight and compact enough to be taken on the go with pure ease. Basically, you’ll never have an excuse to skip your cleansing ritual.

One word of caution: Make sure to remove the brush head from the handle and rinse with warm, soapy water to remove any residue once a week. It’s also recommended to replace your brush head every three months for best results. Happy cleansing!

Clarisonic Mia 2, $149
