Review: Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion in a Jar

Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion in a JarI am rather particular about scrubs. I want to feel them working and I want to see results.  Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion in a Jar nicely fit the bill on both accounts.

The Dr. Brandt microdermabrasion scrub is very fine grained and is a fairly powerful scrub. I definitely could feel it working, and my skin was nicely smooth after each use. It is strong enough that I do not recommend it for those with sensitive skin. However, it is gentle enough that those who hate real coarse scrubs might like this one because of the fine grain. It also is rather adjustable. Rub hard for a more intense scrub and rub lightly for less. In many ways it reminds me of the Biolements Pumice Peel, which was one of my favorite products of last year.

I do have one nit picky complaint though about the packaging. Every time I use the Dr Brandt scrub, the screw on cap is difficult to get back on straight, making it difficult to close the lid. But that does not keep me from recommending the product.

Review: Dr. Brandt Pores No More

I recently tried Dr. Brandt Pores No More. I was excited to give this a try because I have generally heard good things about Dr. Brandt products, and I am also a pretty big fan of makeup primers.

On the good side, the product goes on nicely. It smooths across the skin well and feels quite nice. As a makeup primer it is effective. People at Makeup Alley also tend to report good result with it as a mattifier and in reducing the appearance of pores.

Now for the bad side: Unfortunately I can’t say that it really made my pores less noticeable. Also unfortunate is that I did not wear it enough to really find out on that point because I did not want to use it again after the first try. The stuff smelled horrible! The product had a strong chemical smell to it that I found very unappealing. I simply could not wear it and was very disappointed by that. So for anyone considering this product, I suggest trying to get a sample first before dishing out the $45 for it. Some people love this stuff, so obviously the smell doesn’t bother everyone. For me, I just couldn’t use it again.
