You may know LG for their mobile phones and home appliances, but did you know they also have a beauty product line – Pra.L – consisting of high-quality innovative skincare devices?
True to its name, the LG Pra.L Dual Cleanser comes with two brush heads: a gentle silicone brush and a deep cleansing fine fibre brush, as well as two cleansing modes so you can adjust the intensity to your liking.
A major plus point of this device is that it has a base with an in-built UV light to sterilise the brush after every use. Since the brush comes in direct contact with your skin, sanitisation is very important and this feature of the Pra.L Dual Cleanser is very much appreciated.
