Wave Goodbye!
I think in the past few months I have given very few negative reviews when it comes to the products that I try out. I try to give new products a fair shot, but I just can't help myself.
As many of you see, I am dying for the Clarisonic Face Brush. The fact that it's $195 means I am not getting it unless Santa brings it.
I decided to go on the cheap. I read about a new "Power Cleaner" by Neutrogena. Now, most of my friends already know that there are some products by Neutrogena that I cannot use as my face will break out in hives. CCW has very sensitive skin so I must be careful about what I use to clean or moisturize my face with. But I thought I would give it a try. It was $10, a far cry from $195.
This new Deep Cleanser is waterproof so I can use it in the shower. They also come with 14 disposable cleansing pads.
Two days ago, I decided to give it a try. What I failed to realize that the cleansing pads have cleanser already in them. Oh well, I was going to use my Shieseido but I'll give it a shot.
Turn on the Wave and start massaging over my face.
BURNING, BURNING, BURNING. NOT Tingling, BURNING, I thought my face was on fire. Now a nice lady at the Prescriptives counter once said, if product burns, you are allergic and remove immediately. So, I removed and RE-WASHED my face with my Ole' Reliable.
Because I was able to realize quickly that I was allergic I didn't get hives all over my face. I just got them on my forehead.
And to top it off, it didn't really "deep clean" my face as it claims. The cleansing pads felt like cotton, I would have been better off lightly scrubbing with a washcloth. Which is what I will do, because after the fiasco that has ensued, the Wave went straight into the garbage can.
In the end, would I recommend this product? Obviously you know my answer will be NO WAY IN HELL.
Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
I remain yours,
The CCW
