Clarisonic Questions :)

In my opinion, yes they are worth the money! I'm sure it will be okay on sensitive skin, just moisturize after using it. I use mine daily, but that's because my skin can handle anything lol. And on some of the clarisonics there are settings to how harsh the bristles move! You can set it to the lightest setting! Hope I helped :)

For sensitive skin I'd go for the forea. It's not harsh brushes. I've tried the clarisonic and it makes my face sooo red and irritated afterwords. All brush heads do. But the forea I'm currently saving up for and it looks much gentler and more hygienic, since it's silicone which sanitizes easily rather than the brush head that can be bacteria heaven. And there's no replacements lol

I love my clarisonic. I have very sensitive skin and don't have a problem with it. I use it everynight, but started out with every other night worked my way up. I didn't experience any crazy breakouts when I started with it. I do start to break out if I get lazy and don't se it for a few nights though. I use it with Philosophys Purity made simple face wash. its like these 2 were made for each other. I've tried others, but I find philosophys to be the best. I have the Mia 2. I really only use the lowest setting on it. I think its totally worth the money, and if you don't like it you can always return it :-)

I love it. If you have sensitive skin, I wouldn't use it everyday but you can. With any wash. I use the delicate head brush and I love it. I disinfect the head with tea tree oil every night so there isn't germs from the night before

1. Yes best thing I have ever ever ever done for my skin! I was skeptical of the price but it is completely worth it.

2- Yes. I have super sensitive skin, I can barely touch my face and its red! Anyways, as long as you have the right brush (I use delicate) then its great!

3- Yes again but I don't like their cleansers. They aren't anything special in my opinion so I use whatever cleanser I want (I'm currently using Philosophy Clear Days Ahead)

4- Everyday! I think this is where so many people go wrong (along w/ not using the right brush or pressing too hard) but if you want it to work you have to use it consistently to notice great results. I use mine every single night (one time I forgot and my skin looked horrible, so in the last three years of using it, there has only been two times where I didn't use it). I don't use in the morning though, just once @ night

5- Hmmm I think they are basically all the same but some have some more bells and whistles as far as the charger and different speed changes but I have the Mia and its great.

As far as anything else, goes I always remove my makeup before using so I can get a deep clean vs just it trying to take off my makeup. A lot of people use the Forea Luna but it doesn't give as deep of clean as the Clarisonic. As far as cleanliness goes, I put my brush head in the dishwasher to sanitize it and also you can make a cleaner (found the recipe on Pinterest) and it helps to keep it clean. Like I mentioned earlier, I have baby sensitive skin and it has done wonders for me! I will never not have mine. I thought about trying the Luna but after really looking into it, I know that I would not be as pleased as I am with my Mia!

And there is no other brushes that compare to the Clarisonic. The Ulta or Olay or any other brands actually can irritate your skin and cause damage because the Clarisonic gives off sonic pulses that no other brush can do!

Lisa just so you know the forea give just as deep as a clean, it also uses sonic pulses. It's the same device just little nubs and not a brush.

Jul 14, 2014

Lisa S.

Yeah I know and I meant that no other brush gives off the sonic pulses which I wouldn't consider the Luna a brush just because of the brush head type etc. and that its different device from a brush. Sorry for the confusion. Also my aunt bought a Luna tried it once and didn't like it so she let me try it and it didn't do the things that my Clarisonic does for me. Although I only tried once so who knows? But I didn't know anything about it either and then later figured out what it was called and did more research to see if I should purchase for myself or not. Its just a personal opinion/preference for how it worked for me though, just like how my Clairsonic works for me but sometimes doesn't work for others😊

Well I havent tried anything else but I love my clarisonic..I have bought a second one in my trip in the us. in my country its expensove. I use the delicate brush since my skin is sensitive and it works like a charm...when it didnt really break me out but when I am lazy and I don't use it...it shows!!I use it once a day. in the evening and moisturise after that to get the most of it during the night.

1. I felt it was worth the money for me. I had super high expectations for it so I think I was a little disappointed for the first few months. The first month, it really helped smooth over my dry patches. The second month, I broke out in all these weird places I never get blemishes. It was really frustrating and I had to cut back to using it only at night because it was irritating my skin even with the sensitive head. My breakouts lasted maybe a month or two but after that I really began to see improvement. My skin grew accustomed to the Clarisonic and I don't feel like my pores are clean when I don't use it. It helps with my blackheads around my nose and chin. It doesn't totally clear them up, but definitely reduces the appearance and does wonders smoothing them out when they get a bit raised. My makeup goes on more evenly now and doesn't look as cakey as it used to.

2. Yep. I have sensitive skin and like I said, it may take a while for your skin to get used to it, but I use it twice a day now with no problem.

3. You can use any cleanser. I use Philosophy's purity made simple and that seems to work really well for me.

4. It depends on how your skin responds to it. I've been using it twice a day for many months now and it's been completely fine. But I know a lot of people take breaks from it, just use it once a day or a few times per week.

5. I've only tried the Mia 2. It's nice because it's small and has 2 settings. I've heard people say you only really need one setting, but I typically use the lower one. When I need a deeper clean around my nose, I take the outer ring of the brush off and use the high setting.

I love mine!!I user it every night. Mine also had the body brush do you can use it in the shower or bath. I would read the brush selection...I have used the normal brush and the one for sensitive skin. you can purchase one from qvc...usually on easy pay. they also have a thirty day return policy...try it and if you don't like it just return it.

I have acne prone sensitive skin and the clarisonic did not work for me.
You can use any cleanser you want with the brush. Just make sure to wash the brushes with a mild soap like baby shampoo once a week to get rid of bacteria. You can use the brush as often as you need to. It depends on how your skin reacts with it.
