Now, to business. Before taking the plunge, I took a look through the brand’s website, where the before and after images from other customers were genuinely impressive, with clear improvements in blackheads and pores ‘after only one use’. Some users also raved about using it to remove stubborn fake tan from their limbs.
Seeing as the whole process of microdermabrasion sounded wildly intimidating to someone with dry skin, before I put the device anywhere near my face, I needed to talk to the experts behind it, Sinead Gallagher and Jeanette Dunne, from Renew Skin Clinic.
‘When you remove dead skin cells, you remove excess oil on the skin and allow the skin to breathe,’ Sinead told me.
‘You also improve the appearance of the skin and improve open pores and blackheads. That […]glow is due to skincare penetrating deeper into the skin and brightening it.’

‘It’s for people who may be time poor or may want to maintain the results of in-house treatments,’ Sinead clarified. ‘[The Skin Krush device is] not as strong as you would get in a clinic, and we did a lot of research to ensure it was safe, effective and easy to use.’
