Is It Worth The Cost? By Christi239 on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

OUCH! I bet you're wondering if you read the price of Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion correctly. Why yes, yes you did. This product costs $75 for 1.7 oz. I personally did NOT pay that to test this product. I was lucky enough to get a free sample with a purchase from Sephora.

The product had a great lemony clean scent. It wasn't a Pledge furniture cleaner type of scent, though. It contains diamond shaped magnesium oxide crystals that help to exfoliate the skin. It took very little product to do the job on my face. My skin did feel smooth and clean after use. I was happy with the results. Were the results different or amazing enough to put out $75 to purchase? No thanks. I really don't think this product is unique to those you could find else where. I would tell everyone to save their money and go for something cheaper.

Absolutely. If it costs $75 it better wow me! :)

Sometimes I think that Sephora gives out those little samples because they know people won't buy something so expensive unless they try it first! I use a different system and it's definitely cheaper than this one. I think I'll pass on this one too!

Cool beans on scoring a free sample of Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion product. It is a good thing that you got to try it and decide it wasn't worth the $75 without paying the $75 to try it! While I think that some of the higher priced things may work nicely, I believe that the benefits can be had for far less money.

My $5.98 jar of Apricot Kernel Scrub is just as effective if not more so than this overpriced jar. Go even cheaper and start using BufPuf. Both of these produce great results without spending more than $8.00.

Wow that is a steep price for the amount you get. Glad you got a sample instead of having to spend all that money.

Glad that you were able to get a free sample of this stuff. I don't think I would pay that much. Thanks for sharing.

I will have to agree with others in saying that I'm glad you were able to get samples of this to try before shelling out mega bucks! There truly are wonderful products out there for half the cost that are just as effective!!

that is expensive! You would expect amazing results at the very least.
