I think it is worth the price. I would not want to leave home with out it! My skin is so clean after. I have actually looked in a magnifying mirror before and after and can see definite "gunk" removal!  |

| I use mine twice a week - it's wonderful -cleaning and exfoliating. How often do others use theirs? |

| It would probably be more informative to call out anyone who did NOT stick with Clarisonic. I only recall seeing one such case. Has there been such a discussion in EDS previously? The invocation would have to be in a thread handle, though, to catch such a person's notice. A non-devotee has little reason to enter a multipage thread devoted to praising it or discussing its use. |

I just got mine 2 days ago and my face definitely feels cleaner afterwards. My face feels very soft... I am still waiting for the whiteheads and blackheads to come out in the nose area... i have faith!  |

I had the epidermix and find I don't use it very often when I use the clarisonic everyday, morning and night, but a person could alternate. |

| Thanks for all the replies. I decided to just go for it! I got a really good price at beautydeals.net. I had a coupon and with the free shipping it was $140 total. It's the MD version as well. I think I got really good deal. |

I have been meaning to ask what products people find themselves not needing any more after getting a clarisonic. Was even considering starting a thread.
(I don't have a cs, but would never give up buying ExII -- even if I managed to approximate in on my own (and approximate is the best anyone could do). It is great stuff, and not expensive. Seen the current sale?) |

| I just bought the Clarisonic and received it a couple of weeks ago--use it every morning and night without any problems. I have normal skin without any skin issues but I have to say I LOVE the way it cleans my skin and when I use my serums and moisturizer they are so well absorbed. I suggest this for everyone---treat yourself this Christmas season and get it. You will not be sorry!! |

I'm always the weirdo who has problems with the stuff everybody else loves, LOL.
I have a Clarisonic and due to busy-ness, was not able to return it within the 60 day window (I think there's a 60-day policy if you buy it from a spa or retailer, though why I am not sure).
It does work, it definitely does *something*--my skin looked super clean, sometimes my pores looked smaller--but it also made me break out. I experimented with different cleansers, cleaned the brush head scrupulously, cut back on # of times per week, etc. and to no avail.
I plan to sell my nearly new unit on ebay or somesuch once my free replacement brushes arrive. |

Hi everyone,
I was thinking of getting this as a Christmas gift for my mom this year but she's already using Youthful Essence. Not sure if anyone else here has used it but I was wondering if it would be a waste to get my mom the Clarisonic (or she might think it's a waste) when she already has something else. Any thoughts? |

BBD, so sorry to hear that you can't use it. I hope you will be able to sell it on ebay and get most of your money back.
DDang, the youthful essence is a microdermabrasion tool which is different than the Clarisonic--the Clarisonic is a cleansing brush with sonic activity somewhat like the sonicare brush is to the teeth. I don't see a problem with her using both since I am sure she only uses the Youthful Essence 1 to 2 times a week. There is a 60 day money back guarantee if she does not like it but I have a feeling once she tries this she will not want to give it up. Also, if you live at home with her or anyone else for that matter that tool could be used with separate brush heads for different ones in the family. I keep telling my husband that he needs to try it with the sensitive brush that I have here. He will eventually.  |

I've got the Clarisonic too - for me, it's not a wonder product in terms of changing my skin. Having said that, i do really love it because my skin gets so thoroughly super clean from it. I wouldn't be without it now!
I started with the sensitive brush head as the normal one was too harsh, but now I can use the normal brush head twice a day.
It's really important to change the heads regularly so bacteria doesn't build up i think. Does anyone have any recs on the best place for cheap replacement heads? |

| Would the Clarisonic be okay to use if I'm using benzoyl peroxide? I would like to get rid of some of the flakies that the BP is causing and it sounds like the Clarisonic cleans the skin well and might help the BP work even better. Any advice? Thanks |

Thanks AJRN! I would love to try the Clarisonic since reading the rave reviews and seeing it on Oprah's list of favourite things for 2007, but I was wondering if I'd be too young to use it. I'm 19 with sensitive skin but if it's just a cleansing brush then I'm hoping I'd be fine |

ddang, you will be fine with it because it is so gentle. My opinion, I think all women of all ages should use it. I know it sounds like alot of money but it really cleans well and just remember--you are never too young to start using things like this for great skin care. Gosh, I wish this was around when I was your age--and that was decades ago. I really started doing serious skin care in my early 30s and that was decades ago. I have always tried to stay on top of what science had to offer and I have to admit you would be amazed how great my skin is today. NO surgery needed, just some tender loving care, plenty of water to drink and great skin products that I have been using. The Clarisonic can only enhance whatever skin care line you are using---HEY, but don't forget your MOTHER!! ddang, the skin care line I use is excellent but this makes it better. I also use my Quasar twice a week which is a photoregeneration light device and with the Clarisonic it just adds to my anti aging regimin. HTH!!  |

My skin texture has dramatically improved since I received it two weeks ago that even my fiance commented on it.
I would highly recommend the product.  |

| I LOOOOVE my clarisonic!!!! Just got it around Christmas but I can already tell a difference. Before using clarisonic I would wash my face( I thought well) apply skin care products and they would take a while to absorb. Not now... they SINK right in. The product absorbancy has really helped the texture and tone of my skin. |

| I love this brush also. Using a manual scrub, then my Clarisonic brush then apply my prescription. What a combo! It really helps my medication sink in a lot faster. |
