Pore Scrubbers

These little scrubbers are amazing. They are oval, palm-sized, silicone pads with bristles on one side and a suction handle on the other side. The idea is to slide the handle between your middle and first finger so you can massage the bristle side into the skin. You can use your normal face wash or even an exfoliant with the scrubber. It's very gentle on the skin and can be used daily. Because they are made of silicone, they won't grow bacteria. This is huge because most sponges or brushes we leave in the bathroom never fully dry, which is a breading ground for bacteria. Since the handle has a suction cup, you can stick it right to the tile in your shower. To clean them, wipe with alcohol or throw in a cup of boiling water. They are perfect for travel since you can fold them and they dry quickly. I have seen them everywhere. I got mine at TJ Maxx and paid $4.99 for the 2-pack. Sephora sells one for $6, Amazon has them and I heard Walmart sells them for $1 (although when I went to Walmart I couldn't find them). I highly recommend these. My face feels very soft after I use it. I definitely think these scrubbers provide a more thorough clean than simply using your hands.
