First impressions on Neutrogena Wave

I bought myself a Neutrogena Wave today using the Sodexho gift certificate the bosses at work gave me. I’m not a product junkie but I do love little gadgets that make my life easier. Yeah, yeah, lazy old me. ;)

Neutrogena Wave is a nifty little gadget that cleans the face thoroughly, removing deep seated dirt, oil, and makeup (not that I wear make-up, I’m too lazy). The package contains the gadget, 2 packs of cleanser pads (14 in all), and a double A battery. At P575 I balked at buying the product, thinking I could spend the gc on something I could enjoy, like a buffet or a handful of chocolate bars. Then again I wanted something tangible to mark the first time I landed in the top ten list at the office so I handed over my gc, my sm advantage card and hoped it was worth it.

To use you need only to plug the battery in and place the cleansing pad on the wave’s head, switch it on, and let it vibrate away. The paranoid in me imagined myself being electrocuted despite the package’s assurance that it’s waterproof so it took a few seconds before I felt comfortable rubbing it all over my face. Hehehe.

5 minutes later I emerged out of the bathroom feeling like I just had a facial. My skin indeed felt so smooth and the pores (oh the pores) looked smaller. The vibrating action felt soothing, just like a facial massage and though I’m not sure yet if it will clash with the tretinoin I got from the doc’s office, I am one happy user. And yes, I’m thinking of getting my sisters a Neutrogena Wave too.

Neutrogena Wave is available in all Watson Stores at P575. Refill packs (with 30 pads) are sold at P400.
