Lucky Trendy beCreation's Silicon Micro Scrubber

Hello Everyone! For my first post I'm going to review this Lucky Trendy beCreation's Silicon Micro Scrubber.

According to the information on the package (well from the little kanji that I could decipher) it's suppose to effectively remove blackheads. You may think the bristles seem quite harsh and they do SOUND harsh - if you watch the video below you'll know what I mean - but It's actually quite soft and rubbery, and feels quite gentle against my skin. Its handle also doubles as a suction thing so you can stick it on the wall in the bathroom somewhere when you're not using it. Pretty smart huh?

It's not bad, I DO feel cleaner after using it but I'm not quite sure if this is psychologically induced due to all the scrubbing. My pores look slightly cleaner though.  However I've only just used this once so we'll have to monitor this for some time and see if this yields any long term results with regards to my pore shrinkage. Will update again in a month or so.

Not quite sure what the bottom thicker bristles are for though. There's information on the package but I don't read Japanese, so, if there's anyone out there who can, it would be much appreciated. I'm guessing it might be for more sensitive areas of the face like below eyes maybe? Because it's more blunt and feels gentler.

Famous HK blogger QQ has reviewed this product and can show you how to use it in person, you can watch the following video for more information. She recommends using it while soaking in the bathtub because the steam helps open up pores for cleansing. In the video she uses two scrubbers together but I personally think using one would suffice. Oh and please note that the scrubber is not recommended to be used more than once a week as it might render your skin too dry.

Lucky Trendy beCreation's Silicon Micro Scrubber can be found in Malaysia in Watson's for the price of MYR 23.90 per unit. I recommend getting it from overseas (Japan, Taiwan or China) as I suspect it's actually way cheaper. There's also a men's version which is sold for MYR 26.90 (I think) - no idea why it's more expensive as it's almost the same as the women's version! Just that the colour isn't pink and that the handle is designed to be more 'macho'? Anyway, FYI for all the metro men out there.
