Question from petercsantoro@yahoo.com
I received the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System as a Christmas present. Supposedly, it cleanses the skin really well yet is very gentle. I contacted the company and discovered that the bristles (which cleanse/touch the skin) are made from “DuPont Super Soft Elastomer which is a thermoplastic.” Just wondering what you thought about this device, and if you think it would be better to avoid using this plastic on my skin…I have not opened it in case I want to return it. Thank you!

Well, I always want everything to be natural, so I would prefer a natural bristle brush, however brush bristles are generally not toxic. This description “DuPont Super Soft Elastomer which is a thermoplastic” is not enough of a description to discern what material it actually is.
