Sigma Cleansing and Polishing Tool Review

Several months ago I entered a giveaway on handamadereviews for the Sigma Cleansing & Polishing Tool . Surprise,surprise I won that giveaway (that was the first time I ever won a giveaway). As you can understand when I recieved it I was super excited to try it and I did. As a matter of fact I've been using this for a long time,probably close to a year now. Now I finally decided to review it,eventhough probably many of you might have already  tried it.

This tool works with two AA batteries and it's water resistant but not waterproof so keep that in mind.
It comes with 3 brush heads,soft,medium and firm:
Soft (pink): good for everyday fecial cleansing
Medium (pink & white) : good for everyday body exfoliation
Firm (white) : good for deeper body exfoliation
Here's a closer look to the brush heads





I use this tool,probably,around 2-3 times a week and that's only because I'm a bit lazy :P. I have used both soft and medium on my face but bare in mind that my skin isn't very sensitive. The firm one I only use it on
my body... Now on the site, I see that they changed the firm head but I don't know if it is any different from mine over than coloring.
They also came up with 3 extra heads,spa solution kit, that you can buy for this cleansing and polishing tool. Of course in case you need a replacment for any of the 3 original heads,they have replacements for each head.
Usually I use this with some kind of cleanser but if I feel like my skin really need a good exfoliation I will use some kind of exfoliator with this tool but this might be too harsh for someone with sensitive skin.( soon i'll post a home remedy that i usually use to exfoliate my face and body) .
It has 2 speeds though I would say it would be better if it had 3 with 1 even slower speed for people with sensitive skin. For me the 1st speed works great for my face and the 2nd for my body.
This tool almost has never broke me out,only few times and that's because I used the medium head on high speed on my face so basically it was my fault.
One drawback is that pretty much whenever I use it splashing will occur so I usually use in shower or over the bath  but because it isn't waterproof I have to make sure my hand isn't too wet.
Something that would be nice is if Sigma would sell it separately so you could buy with the heads and the amount you want since some might be only interesting in one head.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a tool that will help you with your daily cleansing routine then this is definitely a tool that you should try. Specially with the extra 3 heads they have it's like your own mini spa at home. 
I believe this won't irritate your skin if you use it correctly. Generally it's a good cleansing tool for you to use if you are on a budget and/or don't want to spend more that $40
This retails for $39.00 
The exta spa solution kit for $29,00
Both together for $59.00
You can buy it from Sigma

Also if you are planning to buy anything from Sigma don't forget the discount coupon( look at the top left side of the page) that gives you 10% plus a mini eyeshadow palette.



Have you tried this?Do you like it? What cleansing tool do you use?
( This is my honest opinion)
