So, it’s been about two months now that I’ve had my pricey Clarisonic facial cleanser tool. For a refresher, the Clarisonic is a device that is made by the same folks who make those Sonicare toothbrushes, which I have to admit I’m dying of curiosity to try and see if it works better than your run of the mill manual toothbrush. It uses “supersonic” cleansing action, where the bristles rotate so quickly that they literally help get down deeper into the pores, and get your skin cleaner.

I got it because I wanted to start really getting my face clean and smooth every night since I do wear moisturizer, foundation and an additional SPF face perfector tinted product as well. I just felt like I wasn’t getting my skin totally clean at night I guess, and I thought that this Clarisonic tool may help with that. Plus, I thought it would be nice to treat myself to a relaxing, massaging, deep humming and soothing type of cleanse every night.

So I bought it. I like that way it made my skin feel right away, but I couldn’t really gauge whether it was making my skin look better or not until I went a week without using it when I forgot to pack it when I went on vacation for a week to the Carolinas.

I did miss it, but I really wanted to see if my skin looked any different. It seems that this thing does help to keep away those little irritation bumps that tend to pop up on my chin. Perhaps those were there because I wasn’t getting my face 100% clean every night and leaving debris in my pores, or maybe there is another reason. Whatever the reason, I did notice my skin looked slightly better when I started using the Clarisonic again.

It looks a bit clearer, and smoother and more evenly toned, so I think this thing does make a difference. I don’t however think this is a necessity, I think you can probably get good results using a cheaper method of deep cleaning, but I think this may last a long time, so in the end, it will probably end up only costing me pennies a day to use.
