This system is the ‘Power of younger looking skin’ by using a simple process and a 2-step process of a micro crystal product by slowly exfoliating the top layer of your skin away to reveal the younger looking new skin layer underneath. By this process, it helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, blackheads, blemishes, uneven skin tone and sun damage.
I came across this product early part of last year (2006) whilst researching on some beauty products. I have always been skeptical about trying new products especially on my face as I am very sensitive. I read many reviews about the product but still was quite hesitant to spend £50 (approx) for the system. But I finally made the choice of purchasing it online more out of curiosity than anything else.
The box consists of: 2x sponge pads called micro-orbit heads which fit onto the accelerator unit 1x accelerator unit 1x tub of 24 hour resurfacing cream 1x tub of Intensive Micro-dermabrasion crystals.
Every time I have tried new products I always see a difference having used them for a few weeks, but with this system I saw an immediate effect. My skin felt smoother and much brighter. Over the weeks using it 1-2 times a week as stated, I noticed my blackheads reducing and my skin looking fresh. I found my foundation easier to apply and there are many days where I don’t feel like I need any foundation on at all. It took me a while to get used to the small vibrations from the accelerator unit. This is a hand held device that is battery operated. It creates small vibrations which help with the circulation of blood flow and is part of the deep exfoliating process. The first time I used it, it felt like I was using light graded sandpaper on my face – a slight scratching effect. It doesn’t hurt but the feeling takes some time to get used to.
This is a 2-step process with very easy to follow instructions.
Step 1: Once the face has been cleansed thoroughly, apply (dot) the crystals on random areas of the face. Attach the sponge head to the accelerator unit, gently massage the crystals using circular motion for up to 5minutes on each area. Step 2: Dust the crystal particles from the face or body area with a dry cloth or towel and wash. Pat dry and apply the moisturiser (24-hour resurfacing cream)
The intensive moisturiser is very pleasant to use and smells good enough to eat. It has a very smooth texture and easy to apply. After each time, the micro-orbit heads need to be thoroughly washed. In many of the reviews I had read, it did state the skin would become more sensitive to the sunlight and advised on using a high quality moisturiser but since using the product I have not been affected but I still make sure I have got my sun protector on when out in the sun.

PowerBrasion The Power Of At-Home Micro-Dermabrasion Is Now In Your Hands! We know celebs have the edge when it comes to shining like a star, but did you ever wonder just how they get their skin to really glow? Its not all make-up and airbrushing you know! Many will have undergone an innovative cosmetic procedure called micro-dermabrasion in which a machine blasts the face with tiny crystals to remove the dull, lifeless outer layer of the skin, to reveal a fresh, glowing, superstar complexion. The good news is that you no longer need a superstar budget to get those superstar results in fact, with PowerBrasion, you can enjoy micro-dermabrasion whenever you like, from the comfort of your own home. When you consider that a salon micro-dermabrasion treatment can cost anywhere between £30-£100, PowerBrasion offers great treatment results with exceptional value for money. It is a unique kit that offers the benefits of deep exfoliation without the need for micro-dermabrasion treatments. The PowerBrasion system is a safe, gentle system that can easily be used at home to give results that would rival a professional treatment. This is much more effective than a facial scrub that can scratch and irritate the skin without working deeply into the areas that really need it. The PowerBrasion kit includes: micro-dermabrasion crystals, to gently and deeply exfoliate, and a micro-dermabrasion accelerator handset to direct the crystals evenly over the face, to renew and nourish the skin. Your guide to younger-looking skin The combined action of the PowerBrasion crystals and handset allows for controlled exfoliation. The speed of the handset, together with the abrasive nature of the crystals, gently removes the top layer of dead epidermal skin cells. This action allows for gentle, controlled exfoliation to correct surface irregularities and reveal a smoother, fresher skin. PowerBrasion helps reduce the appearance of; wrinkles, sun damage, pigmentation, uneven skin tone and acne scarring, to reveal fresher younger-looking skin. Younger-looking skin is just below the surface PowerBrasion can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve skin renewal as the abrasive action of the crystals stimulates the micro-circulation (blood supply) to the skin's surface. This enhances the provision of nutrients necessary for the stimulation of fibroblasts for collagen regeneration, whilst giving an improvement in tone and elasticity. This exfoliation also enhances penetration of the 24 Hour Resurfacing Cream, which continues the skin renewal benefits of the treatment. PowerBrasion is also great for treating acne-prone and congested skin as it reduces the appearance of open pores and comedones. PowerBrasions deeper exfoliating action can significantly help thickened, blemished skin and acne scarring whilst also being extremely effective on sun-damaged skin. Also great for feet, hands and body! Better still, PowerBrasion can also be used on other areas of the body to get the same fantastic results. PowerBrasion can be used on the hands and feet and is also perfect as an all-over body exfoliation, especially before applying self-tanning products. So now that youre in on the secret of the celebrity glow try PowerBrasion for yourself.
