Just saw a short piece on this on "The Doctors". Does anyone have this or has anyone heard anything about it, negative or positive? http://www.crystalift.com/products.htmI've always felt an occasional micro-derm was not very helpful, but with one of these at home and used more regularly (and certainly less expensive over time) that it may be more useful. Also wonder if it would be helpful for stubborn chest, hand and arm areas? Hmmmmmm...need to do more reasearch:  Quote:The Crystalift Resurfacing System is an advanced dermatologic breakthrough that uses crystal and vacuum-lift technology to bring smooth, radiant, youthful skin to the surface. Simple and easy to use, no other at-home skin care system gives you the same revolutionary technology that costs skin care professionals thousands of dollars. Now you can 'Crystalift Away the Years' at a fraction of the cost.
Crystalift Resurfacing Package includes: Crystalift Resurfacing Machine, Complete Treatment Series, Instructional DVD
Retail Price: $249.00
Special Introductory Offer: $199.00
Replacement cartridges: $39.00 (each cartridge = 2 treatments)

I don't know about that one but I'd rather spend a little bit more and get an (unused) small industrial looking one from EBay like the photo. I buy the crystals they use in those machines on EBay and just add a tiny bit to a creamy cleanser and gently massage my skin and wash off. Seems to work well when done once or twice a week.

Tide laundry brush and baking soda should work just as well.
I've been having problems with computer since May. I'm on a loaner now and still waiting for a new one. If I don't get back to you or am not on board, it would be most likely due to another computer problem.

I tried to buy it on Amazon after I posted the link here, they had them at the time. By the time I got there, they were sold out--gone. P&G no longer makes it either, so I don't even know how Amazon had it a few weeks ago. Seems they've all be bought up on Amazon though: http://community.tide.com/tide/topics/tide_rotating_scrub_brush_replacementSo hold onto yours and be careful with it, there aren't anymore!

OMG!!! I WONDER if my announcing it worked for the face (they quoted me in Allure Mag for the Tide Brush), the companies wanting to market the high end products bought out all the TIDE brushes.

Could be. Amazon had it two weeks ago. But, they have individual sellers, so likely someone bought a batch at close out and was selling them on Amazon. Regardless, they are all gone now on Amazon, too. No more Tide Brushes for us! Wonder if anyone here bought the ones off Amazon after we discussed it in another thread? Hmmmmm....

I should have kept the advice for my 'inner circle' (which includes you) and not blabbed it. Now I won't be able to get another one.

This one seems close to the Tide brush, but probably costs a little more-$11.50. http://tinyurl.com/y98yldl

Thanks, CG. I saw something similar at WalMart yesterday after I realized a Tide brush was not in my future. They had a Conair Facial brush kit very similar to that one for $20. I may go back and take a closer look. I use the Dove hand held vibrating gadget that has replaceable 'pads' on it. One side is a little rougher than the other (can use either side) to buff off dry skin, but not really very deep cleaning, more buff puff like that is electrified.

MissJ thanks for posting about the Tide Brush, now I definitely need to get one, hopefully they will get some on amazon. since they are all sold out Ill try to get the brush head for the dermanew. Does the Tide Brush head spin? because the one from dermanew doesn't, it just vibrates.  DC please let us know what you think about the conair device.

The TIDE brush head does SPIN.
