How does it work?

The Olay Regenerist cleansing brush is a battery-powered tool with two settings that gently cleanse and exfoliate the skin. Its water-resistant rotating design is safe to use in the shower so you can feel good about adding this pampering step to your skincare routine.

To use the device, simply dampen your face, apply your favourite cleanser, moisten the brush head, and gently exfoliate your face for 60 seconds. The exfoliating brush heads help to buff away dead skin cells to reveal refreshed and smoother looking skin.

This cleansing brush includes two detachable brush heads, which you'll want to replace every three months for best results.
