I bought the Clarisonic Mia 2 on the recommendation of my BFF Ashli, a coworker, my sister's begging and the Sephora rep who was helping me the other week. At first, i totally regretted my purchase but after watching countless YouTube videos and pouring over hundreds of reviews, i decided to stick with my new purchase. I waited until Christmas to open up my Clarisonic and tonight I used it for the very first time.
For starters, the Clarisonic is insanely easy to use. It is portable, lightweight, waterproof and rechargeable. If you're ready to get cleaner, healthier skin, then the Clarisonic is for you. I chose the Mia 2 for its automatic timer and travel case. I purchased the acne brush set for my sister as we intend to share the Clarisonic. I am using the sensitive brush head that comes with the unit. The instructions recommend using a normal cleansing facial wash or an exfoliating wash with round beads, any jagged particles in the sugary scrubs could damage the brush head and cause buildup within the head attachment. The timed cycle pauses briefly to allow users a chance to move to the next area of their face. The recommended time for each part of your face is: 20 seconds each for your forehead/nose and chin and 10 seconds per cheek. I did not work fast enough and had to run the cycle again (which I totally didn't mind doing). The Clarisonic is insanely soft and doesn't even feel as harsh as a washcloth. I will be providing weekly status updates over the next eight weeks so stay tuned!
