Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I was a teenager and in my 20s I was one of the lucky ones and never had issues with my skin, as it was clear and normal 99% of the time. It wasn't until I hit my 30s that the problems began (I'm 35 now.) For whatever reason, I would get breakouts in places I NEVER did before, like my chin, my jawline, and my temples, and no matter which products I used or how much I tried to do the clean/astringent routine, my skin would still go through the cycle of clearing up and then breaking out a little bit again and again. My skin progressively got drier and flakier, became what I would call faintly "blotchy" (even though I do not sunbathe or tan and keep my face out of the sun most of the time...) and I haven't been able to get certain pores clear for the life of me! (i.e. after trying facial steaming, squeezing, clear-pore strips, etc.) So, after my skin had a crazy reaction to a new product line I tried, I went to get a facial where the esthetician introduced me to this little wonder. Well, like many of the other reviews have said, this little machine has TOTALLY turned my skin around and given me back the clean, clear, non-blotchy, non-dry skin I used to have when I was younger! I've been using it for about two weeks now, and after about five days I noticed there were a few tiny pores which had been clogged forEVER that all of a sudden the gunk popped out when I was rinsing my skin. Actually, even the first night I noticed a difference...my skin was smoother and more supple and my husband said my skin was "glowing" like after I've had a facial. And in agreement with everyone else, I feel that my skin care products work much better now, and even my make-up goes on more beautifully. The trial-size cleansers that come with this unit are just okay, and even though I will use them up I still prefer my favorite cleanser. The sensitive brush attachment that it comes with works great (I use it on the second setting because the lowest setting--the factory setting--wasn't "scrubby" enough for me...) but when I order a brush head for my husband to use I will order him the "normal" type brush since his skin is a bit more rough, obviously. By using the Clarisonic (morning and night), plus a quick swipe of my astringent afterwards (only at night), my skin has transformed to practically perfect condition. In case anyone is interested in a good astringent which is safe for most skin types, I use a combo of regular clear witchhazel (available at the drugstore) with about 2-3 drops of pure tea tree oil. This combination kills bacteria, removes residue, does not dry out my skin, is totally natural, and leaves my skin feeling super tingly and fresh. And it's incredibly economical in comparison to commercial astringents sold in the stores! I used to use just pure witchhazel until my friend suggested I add the tea tree oil and it made a huge difference.
Something I noted that might be helpful to some shoppers...after staring at all the different Clarisonic models that Amazon offers for what seemed like two days, I finally figured out the difference between the Clarisonic "Pro" and the Clarisonic "Plus." They are both the same, except for the Pro version (supposedly only available to licensed professionals) has color options and has low-medium-high-pro speeds, whereas the Plus comes only in white and has low-medium-high speeds (sans the "pro" speed but who needs that anyway?) Then, the "Pro" version is available with and without the Body Kit and Universal Charging Cradle...hence, the two different prices for the Pro model (the "Plus" model always includes the Body Kit and Charging Cradle.) Since I preferred the white, wanted the Body Kit, and could care less about the extra speed, the Clarisonic Plus was the model for me.
Anyway, this product is as close to being a skin miracle worker as something can get. I swear that this is probably the best my skin has ever looked and felt, even when I was younger. The price of one Clarisonic equals what I would spend on about two facials, so for me it has been worth every penny. No more agonizing over my skin...it looks pretty again! Yaaaay!
