Hiya!
This morning I am doing a product review on the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System. I have to say that I love using Clarisonic. I was skeptical of the price when I first looked into buying Clarisonic but EBAY TO THE RESCUE! I got my Brand New Clarisonic ARIA for $120.00 on EBAY and it retails $200.00 on their website. I started using this product over a year ago because I was having lots of acne problems and it really bothered me. (I'm a teenager! blah). Since purchasing Clarisonic I will never go back to manual hand washing ever again. It really did clear up my face and blemishes.The products is SO EASY to use and it's alot of fun actually. The money invested was worth it. Down below is a pic of my Clarisonic :)
Here is some information on Clarisonic...
-While cleansing is the first step
in any skin care ritual, it is often overlooked. Typical manual
cleansing can leave behind dirt and oil trapped in pores. This build-up
can damage the appearance and health of your skin and keep your skin care products from working like they should.
Used and recommended by spas and dermatologists,
Clarisonic Sonic Skin Cleansing Systems use a patented sonic frequency
of more than 300 movements per second to gently, yet thoroughly removes
makeup 6X better than cleansing with your hands alone. Cleaner skin is
the first step toward healthier looking skin. And healthier looking
skin is smoother, more radiant and more beautiful.
Oscillating back and forth at a sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second, the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System works with the skin, not against it.

Sonic Cleansing Benefits: (Here is what Clarisonic Claims)
- Removes makeup 6X better than manual cleansing <--- It really does! The evidence is on the brush after you finish using it!
- Leaves skin feeling and looking smoother <--- I do agree! once you put lotion on your face is so soft
- Removes impurities that keep creams and serums from working their best <-- I don't use serums so I have no say on that.
- Gentle enough to use twice a day <--- Morning and evening is what I do! Also it is water proof and I use mine in the shower!
- Reduces oily areas, dry skin patches and blemishes <---My blemishes were gone after about a week.
- Minimizes the appearance of visible pores <--- When using the Deep Pore Brush Head I think so yes!
How to Use Sonic Cleansing
Sonic Skin Cleansing Systems gently and effectively remove dirt and oil, and prepare your skin for moisturizers and serums.
Softer, smoother, cleaner skin in just 60 seconds:
Charge the handle in the charging cradle.
Wet your skin and apply cleanser to the brush head.
Use circular motion; 20 sec. on forehead, 20 sec. on nose/chin, 10 sec. on each cheek.
Sonic Cleansing Notes
- Safe for cleansing all skin types*
- Recommended for use with any non-abrasive cleanser
- Also good for the neck and décolleté, as well as other areas of your body needing extra care and attention
- Rechargeable for up to 30 minutes of use
- Waterproof for use in shower or tub <--- I use mine in the shower!
- Use twice a day, one minute each time<--- Clarisonic ARIA can be programmed to do a 2 min cycle. I use the 2 min cycle!
*Ask your dermatologist why gentle cleansing is so important for people with rosacea and acne.
