needs better instructions does not have self timer but does clean well [SEP] i have been using my clarisonic on and off for the past few years and it is a pain to purchase the replacement brushes for that it also kind of grosses me out that the bacteria can live in those bristlesthe ones that are supposed to deep clean you face i have been wanting to try the foreo luna for a while but that costs this item looks almost identical to that luna cleansing brush my friend uses her luna and swears by it now i compared hers to this one and i think the shape of this facial brush is a lot more practical since it comes to that point at the top which is great around the eye nose mouth areas however looking at the luna bristles and the bristles on this unit you can tell the luna has their bristles closer and also has a great variety of brush levels which their claim is to more efficiently cleanse the skin meeting the specific needs of different facial areas compared to the sytles ii this unit only has types of bristles the luna says it cleanses with pulsations per minute but this unit says it can reach times per minute massage design if high frequency vibration which i am not sure how true that isand what that even means what is times what is it referring tothis leads me to my other gripe with this productthe instructionsi wish this unit had better instructionsi was reading it and i am so confused it does not say how many modes it has and what each mode is used forbut it mentions modes have eight gearshere is the operation instructionsplease try to decipher what it means and yes i know there is typosbut that is how it reads on the instruction manual each mode has eight gear may adjust the intensity according to your needed according to the intermediate key open product cleaning mode for the first tiem according to the second closed products the intensity of each mode can be though the and buttons to increase excuse me what anyway here are my instructions charge the unit to full before first use flashing means it is charging and when it stops blinking it is fully charged wet the unit and your face apply some face wash and turn the unit on to cleanse your whole face for minutes this unit has modes cleanse and massage when you press on the button between the and you have it on cleanse mode the faster vibration and you can adjust the vibration intensity higher or lower depending on what you prefer when you press the middle button again it turns off when you press it one more time it will turn onto the massage mode slower vibration you can adjust the speed of vibration in this mode as well the unit does not have a self timer so do not expect this unit to shut off after minutes of cleaning it also says it has acoustic cleaning which i thought meant it would beep every seconds indicating you should move to another part of your face ex left cheek right cheek chin and then forehead like the clarisonic does but does not so you need to keep track of how long you want to wash your face for with this shut the unit off when you are finished by clicking the middle button between the and pat the unit dry or leave it where it can air dryone thing i like about this type of facial brush is that you do not need to replace any brush heads on this unit it makes for more hygienic this styles ii facial brush also claims to reverse signs of aging and restoring youth in your skin i am only so i cannot really speak to this claim i do not have may wrinkles but i hope this is a great start for preventative measuresthis unit also claims to be a durable travel sized facial brush it feels very light weight which i like because i do not want a bulky unit i really like that the cord is very small and does not need a stand charging unit like the clarisonic i have not used this enough to know how long one charge can hold but i will let you know once i continue to use this consistently be sure to read the instructions because it says you need to charge the unit fully before your first use when you plug it in you will see the light at the bottom to start flashing indicating that it is actively charging i hope this unit will last forever as it claims would not that be amazing compact and easy to travel with cute color comes with a charging cable which it came with a case too waterproof so you can use it in the shower rechargeable you can see the image where i am charging the unit and the light is blinking once it stops blinking i am assuming that is when it is fully chargedcons the plug for the adapter to connect seems like it could rip over time you can see it in the picture it is very flimsy the user manual has very odd grammar and is hard to understand which side is for massaging and which side if for cleansing please edit your instructions so we all understand how to properly use it does not have a self timer and it does not beep to indicate when to move to another part of your face like the clarisonic or luna doi purchased this product at a discounted price in exchange for a honest review i love face products and purchasing things on amazon so this is truly my honest review i think this is worth the price tag for what it does all in all the styles ii facial brush does clean the face well the vibrations are something to get used to
