Unfortunately, this is already my second instrument, my first thought good 1.5 years. I had kept it from the very beginning in the stator, which of course is practical and probably provided, otherwise the would not be doing so. But after a short time the engine made funny noises, sounded somehow not round on. Nevertheless, the brush worked perfectly, good battery life, all great. But slowly walked the quirks going. The brush did not want to tackle. Only with a lot Geschüttel and shaking while pressing button hectic, she went on at some point.
The first brush I had no Amazon but from a different provider, which it had not been discontinued, so I got at least get my money back and got the brush then ordered from Amazon. I had read the other reviews that it goes quickly broken, etc., but I liked her just the one because it has a battery and I was also with the power really pleased. I carry every day make up and wash my face at night twice with cleansing lotion. In the second round, I take the brush with this and have hardly any dirt in the cotton pad, if I then nachreinige with tonic. Without brush I have a feeling that I had not washed my face. Because I need then still loose cotton pads 3-4, instead of just one to brush!
Long story .... the new brush I have kept from the outset with the bristles down. I use them, rinse thoroughly with very hot water from, knock the bristles on a towel and dry the brush, then I put it with the bristles down on a washcloth. The bristles look bent at the next use / wrong, but that places once you have moistened the brush.
The new brush I've now almost a year, kept from the outset so and it is still going perfectly and around! I am not an expert and accept no guarantee that this is the ultimate solution, but it works for me so far and I wanted to let you know that. Most are indeed from the brush itself thrilled it fails only on the durability. The beautician has the way a (me totally overpriced) Clarisonic face brush in use, but the handling is independent of the brand, I think.
I hope this helps you!
