Sponges and Pads for Cleansing

Cleansing is important for maintaining healthy skin, as washing your face with a cleanser helps to remove dirt, makeup residue, excess oil and other impurities that clog your pores, rob your complexion of brightness and cause irritation. Skin care tools can boost the cleansing power of your favorite products. Reusable and disposable skin care tools make it easier to apply cleanser and to target difficult-to-cleanse spots like the sides of your nose. Sponges also simplify application and gently exfoliate to promote a brighter, smoother complexion while you cleanse.

Power Cleansing Tools

Looking for a way to get a deeper cleanse? Power cleansing skin care tools may be an ideal solution. These appliances either run on batteries or plug into the wall and are typically used along with a facial cleanser. Some power cleansing tools feature brush heads that spin, allowing them to remove more dirt and oil than manual cleansing. Other tools provide cleansing benefits by producing sonic vibrations to thoroughly cleanse the skin. Many power cleansing tools exfoliate while they cleanse, allowing the first step of your skin care regimen to provide multiple benefits.

Solutions for Managing Oil

Your sebaceous glands naturally produce an oil called sebum to lubricate and hydrate your skin. Unfortunately, these glands can over achieve, producing too much sebum. Excessive sebum production can leave your complexion looking shiny and increase your risk of developing blemishes. Skin care tools can help you manage excess oil to improve your appearance and the health of your complexion. With their deep cleansing benefits, power cleansers sweep away extra oil and liberate sebum from the pores. Blotting papers are another solution for oily skin. These highly absorbent sheets can be pressed against oily areas like your nose, forehead and chin to soak up excess oil.

Devices for Performing Clinical Treatments at Home

Today, there are a number of innovative clinical skin care treatments for various dermatological concerns. At-home versions of clinical tools are available to help you reap the benefits of these interventions without having to visit a dermatologist's office or spa. Light treatment devices that promote skin healing and recovery are one example. These devices are used for a wide range of concerns. Exfoliating skin care tools are another example and remove cellular debris from the complexion similar to clinical microdermabrasion treatments.
