So normally I try not to buy into a lot of hype about things, but I saw this advertisement for a “black head eraser” and I had to try it. Its this little hand held device and you put a special pad on it when you want to use it. The pad already has the acne cream or wash or whatever you want to call it on it and you wet it then turn on the little device. The device vibrates and you wash your wash with it.

It builds up this great lather, gives you a good clean, it really feels like it is genuinely cleaning deep into your pores and the nature of the pad makes it feel like it is scrubbing the skin well to remove dead skin as well as the simple vibration makes it feel effective as well. The pads are a one time use and quick and easy to change. But of course, there in lies the problem. You have to buy replacement pad and that could get costly, depending on how often you use the device. If you use it everyday, that would be not cost effective, but if you use less often, like I do, the cost isn’t bad. Of course, using it less often means that it isn’t quite as effective either.
