Imagine this, there’s a hot guy you’re crushing on but you don’t want to approach him for fear of rejection. Or perhaps you feel you might not get along or he might turn out to be a total creep and wreck your life. So you choose to simply admire him from afar. Then one day, he approaches you. And he’s just wonderful…the two of you are so good together…he’s the soulmate you’ve been waiting for….
Very romantic isn’t it? Now replace “you” in the above scenario with “your skin” and the “hot guy” with the Mirenesse PEBBLE SONIC and you have my skin’s love story 😉
I had always wanted to try out a skin cleansing device like the Clarisonic or the Foreo but my skin was going through a weird phase and I was apprehensive that it would make things worse. But then last month, Luxola.com sent me the Mirenesse Pebble Sonic along with a couple of other Mirenesse products (read post here) and my skin found it’s soulmate….

USAGE
As you can see in the above pictures, the Pebble Sonic has multiple brush surfaces to allow for cleansing sensitive and normal skin areas as well as body cleansing. The front side thinner tips are ideal for cleansing the face and the areas around the nose, while the thicker tips on the reverse can be used for cleansing the back and chest. These tips are super soft and give a wonderful massaging feel while cleansing the face. It doesn’t feel harsh or abrasive in the slightest and it is such a pleasant experience that you forget how long you’ve been using it.
1 minute is the optimal time recommended for cleansing with the Pebble Sonic. However, should you continue using for a longer time (like I do, since I cleanse my neck and the nape of my neck as well) it will automatically switch off after 3 minutes to prevent overuse.
CLEANSERS
The Pebble Sonic comes with two cleansers, a purifying one for use in the morning and an anti-aging one for use at night. Both these cleansers are FREE from irritants like Parabens, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Formaldehyde, Imidazolidinyl urea, Phenylenediamine, Synthetic fragrance, Alcohol, Petrolatum, Mineral Oil, Aluminium, Talk, Coal Tar, Pthalates and Mercury! Isn’t that absolutely wonderful?
What the cleansers DO contain are skin-friendly natural ingredients like Orange Peel Oil, Coffee Seed extract, Guarana extract, Evening Primrose Oil among several others.
While it is recommended that you squeeze a little cleanser onto the Pebble Sonic and then massage your wet face, I personally find that I get better results when I apply the cleanser onto my wet face and then go over it with the Pebble Sonic. I have also tried using it with the Enesti cleanser and the Fresh Soy Face Cleanser (yes, I still have a wee bit left in the tube) and it works equally well with both. You can’t however, use a scrub or a cleanser with “micro beads” or any cleanser which is even the slightest bit abrasive since it can damage the silicone.
The cleansers also remove makeup quite effectively (not eye makeup, obviously, since you can’t use it on your eyes). Foundation, sunscreen, blush, all of it comes off with the Pebble Sonic. However, on the days I do wear makeup, I personally prefer to double-cleanse simply out of habit.
MY EXPERIENCE
Just the fact that I’m calling the Pebble Sonic my skin’s SOULMATE should be enough to show just how much I love it! It has really transformed the texture of my skin and has made it soooooo soft and smooth! And clean too. And radiant. Blackheads and whiteheads are gone, my skin feels amazingly smooth and supple and the skincare and makeup products just glide on and get easily absorbed. You might feel that I’m exaggerating but this is true!
I have been using the Pebble Sonic everyday, twice a day, except for the three days when I had an allergic rash on my left cheek and except on the mornings that I want to use a scrub since I don’t want to over-exfoliate. Actually, I don’t even need to use a scrub now since the Pebblesonic cleans, exfoliates and massages my face but the Tonymoly Latte scrub is just too cute and tempting to not use!
PRICE
Actually, the term “Price” shouldn’t be used here. I’s prefer to call it “Investment” since that’s what you are doing for the well being for your skin. Priced at ₹ 9,482, it costs less than 10 salon facials (if we take the average facial to cost ₹1000, though they usually are much higher than that)! Using this device daily is as good as giving yourself a mini-facial twice a day. And honestly, no facial has ever made my skin feel soooooooo good. If anything, these salon facials and cleanups always make me break out which is why I avoid them.
The Pebble Sonic is a far better deal any day since it will last you ages (10 year quality guarantee, remember) and make your skin fabulous. Like I said, invest in this device for your skin instead of those facials.
So, summing up, I’m incredibly happy that the Pebble Sonic has entered my life. Why was I without it all these years? Seriously, put aside those plans of buying expensive makeup sets/palettes/brushes and buy this first. You can thank me later when you touch your soft skin 😉

Hello Dollie,
Fantastic review! Your skin looks amazing, you must be doing something right. Those cleansers sound heavenly..I’m all for products that are chemical free. There are some high-end cleansers that are loaded with parabens and sulfates and people think because they paid an exorbitant amount for them, they are getting something special.
