Product reviews of Conair Facial Sauna Systems with Timer
Review: Good Value
Beauty product: 4 Stars
I chose this item because I'm not really the spa-going type, and I wanted to steam my face more effectively than standing over a sink with hot water and a towel over my head. Oh, and I didn't want to spend too much. Overall I am satisfied- the item does what I need it to, and I feel like I didn't pay too much for it.
Pros:
-Doesn't take up too much counter space
-The base stays cool even after using for 10-15 minutes
-Produces effective amounts of steam to open pores and clear out the sinuses
-Ability to set a timer is convenient
-Auto shut off gives forgetful people like me peace of mind:)
Cons:
-In my opinion, the face tool/attachments don't do any more than a loofah or washcloth + exfoliating cream. Beware if you have long hair. Even though mine was pulled back, I got too close with the rotating tip and ended up having to cut some of my hair out of the tool.
-Sitting bent over the cone for any more than 10 minutes is neck-stiffening. I've tried propping the unit, using a taller chair, etc. but there's no way around it that I've found.
-The larger of the face cones doesn't quite get all of the facial areas. I've found that I have to spend a few minutes tilted one way, and a few the other in order to reach all of my cheeks, forehead, and chin. Using a towel behind the head seems to help a little.
Overall I am happy enough with this unit and its results that I will continue using it several times a week.
Review: Good but not "great"
Beauty product: 4 Stars
Every product is not going be exactly what your looking for at times, but this particular facial steamer is not that bad. It's not bad at all actually and the price is cheap. I agree with some of the reviewers when they say the steam is too close. When I put my head down into the steam it is just to close to my nose and chin and you don't want all that heat on your delicate facial skin. I love the exfoliating brush that comes with it. It is so soft and gentle but the sponge applicator they could have kept! I put the lotion on it and it was rough trying to apply it to my skin. Other than that I give this a four *. Review: Good for sinus...use a kettle for steaming your face!!!
Beauty product: 1 Stars
I just got this product and was so excited to use it right away, only to get so disappointed. I have tried a lot of professional facials so I know what I'm looking for. I felt so stupid while putting my face on the mask. It wasn't producing enough steam, that I was wondering if I should stick my face deeper into the mask to get more steam or to even just feel it.
My husband was trying to console me so he tried. He was giggling while he's doing it and he stuck his face deeper telling me it's what I should do to make it work. Well his conclusion is, if you stick your face so much deeper, you could burn your nose.
I'd give it credit maybe for sinus...but then again, I can't even be sure since I don't have that condition. But it's not for sinus after all! Maybe they should start advertising it for sinus, like "Moisturizing Mist Sinus Sauna System". I'm surely returning it!
Review: Good little steamer for the price
Beauty product: 5 Stars
This steamer is simple and effective. The small water resevoir allows the steam to begin within 3 or 4 minutes while still allowing an adequate amount of steaming time. It does get a bit hot but I just move my face back a bit and continue steaming. My skin has never felt or looked better or smoother. As many have already said it is good for clearing the sinuses, too. Oh, and at first I thought the timer was broken because it seemed loose and nothing seemed to happen when I turned it to the amount of desired minutes. However, after selecting the minutes and pressing the flashing timer light, you will find it does indeed work.
The brush is a nice bonus and works very well.
I would buy this product again and recommend it.

Product works good. It is a little hot if you put your face directly into the funnel and drape a towel over it like it says to.
