I am really considering purchasing one of these and would love your feedback...

1. Where did you purchase it? Approx cost?
2. What difference has it made to your skin?
3. Do you use it every time you wash? Twice day?
4. Are you happy you purchased it?

1. eBay, brand new, boxed, £70

2. No more monthly spots

3. Usually once per day. Sometimes, twice, but second session will be very abbreviated, ie I won't wait for the times-up beep. Husband loves it for pre-shave, and his skin is looking better than it ever has.

4. Big yes.

I have a clarisonic, purchased from EDS about 2 years ago. I use it twice a day and love it. I had a problem with alot of bumps on my forehead and it totally cleared it up. Had some minor purging the first month but after that pretty clear skin. I can also vouch that their customer service is awesome. I had a issue with mine and they replaced it no questions asked. I also recently bought the Clarisonic Mia for travelling (it is lighter) and wish now I had just bought it from the start, as it was less expensive. It only has one speed (same as second speed on the regular Clarisonic) but that's the speed I use anyway. I also like the charger for the Mia better.

I've been using the Clarisonic Plus for about two weeks now. At first, it wasn't really making a difference because I was taking it VERY slow. I started on the lowest speed and used it every other day. Then I switched to once a day, then finally to twice a day. I did this because some people can't tolerate that much stimulation on the skin at once so I made sure I wouldn't be one of those people. I have to say though, that it didn't really help TOO much. I noticed these milia-like bumps getting smaller, but they were definitely still there. Then two days ago, I kicked up the speed one notch and it made a drastic difference! The bumps on my face has gone down more noticeably! Anyways, my point is not to just use the highest speed possible and expect good results. It varies from person to person but I think everyone should play it safe and start out slow. I think it's worth your money and if you don't like it after 60 days, you can just return it.

I bought mine from skincarerx.com and I think there's a promo code (MUA20) that will get you a 20% discount

And you probably don't want to buy it from eBay. Sure it's cheaper, but there may be some warranty problems in the future as I've heard from other people. Plus, if you buy it from a credited store, then you always have the option of returning it, which isn't always the case with eBay

totally rave about the clarisonic
I purchased it from here and do think it's the best daily exfoliation out there...and I am a total skin junkie. I use the sensitive head and put it on normal mode...use it morning and night. I find it's great for deep cleansing because it takes away all your make-up better than just the cleanser alone. Also if you use the clarisonic daily and move it in upward strokes...it's great in the long run to prevent saggy skin due to gravity.

I use the Clarisonic (got it at EDS of course)in the evening only. I also find I like the Delicate head the most. That and the Baby Quasar are my fav skin care toys.Just remember to rinse the brush well and clean under the brush often.

There are so many threads of this topic. You should of searched those threads.
1. I bought my Clarisonic PRO from EDS. Just look at the price on EDS

2. It made a huge positive difference to my skin and the body brush is a bonus! I use less of my skin care products because Clarisonic does a wonderful deep clean.

3. I use mine twice a day, at least.

4. I am extremely impressed and I have no regrets.

i have just bought the clarisonic plus, I love it. I am like Oasisjc in that I am taking it very slow, delicate brush, once a day, Oh and I dont use their cleanser , just one that Ive used before and I know that suits me(beginning to realise that " less is more" and changing too many things at once is silly, then I havnt a clue what is working ans what isnt)

So far I am loving what it is doing for my skin, clearer, better skin tone, smoother.
Hope this helps in your decision! Good luck

I bought the MIA.

1. Where did you purchase it? Approx cost?
QVC $119
2. What difference has it made to your skin?
Cleans quickly and skin is nicely prepped for lotions. My skin feels so smooth afterwards.
3. Do you use it every time you wash? Twice day?
I use it once a day with Purity made simple. Love the two together!
4. Are you happy you purchased it?
Yes, took me awhile and I was a devoted OCM user. I still love OCM, but just don't have the time I use to.
