Clarisonic contacted me and asked me to do a review and giveaway in honor of Father’s Day. I wanted to make sure that I did a great job reviewing it so I didn’t get the giveaway up in time for the Father’s Day Event. I got the female one, although, I think it would be fine for a man or a woman.

About Clarisonic:

Clarisonic Skin Care recognizes that men are just as discerning about their grooming products as women are. Created by the inventor of the Sonicare toothbrush, the Clarisonic uses sonic technology and works with the skin’s natural elasticity to unclog pores for deeper cleansing without stripping the skin. Using the Clarisonic prior to shaving will open pores and give your man the closest shave of his life. The launch of their men’s Graphite Gray Clarisonic for Father’s Day in 2008 was so successful that they made it a permanent part of the line. Tinseltown A-listers like Ben Stiller, Dustin Hoffman and Justin Timberlake have also made Clarisonic part of their grooming routine.
CLARISONIC Skin Care System is the first sonic oscillation face brush that deeply cleanses, stimulates and clarifies the skin. Using any nonabrasive facial cleanser, CLARISONIC works to cleanse skin more thoroughly than manual washing. With its easy usage and waterproof design, no additional time is added to the beauty regimen and it can safely be used in the shower.

Scientific studies have measured Clarisonic’s extraordinary results:
· Cleans twice as effectively as manual cleansing and removes six times more makeup than traditional cleansing
· After eight weeks, study participants reported:
Healthier skin, 83%
Fewer blemishes, 70%
Fewer dry patches, 69%
Decreased appearance of pore size, 68%
Softer skin, 94%
· Effective pre-treatment cleansing for in-office dermatology and plastic surgery procedures
· Through deep cleansing, the Clarisonic increases absorption of topical Vitamin C by up to 61% into the epidermis (compared with manual cleansing)
· Allows for deep cleansing of the pores and skin surface, yet is gentle enough for everyday use at home including for those patients with skin conditions such as acne, seborrhea, eczema and psoriasis

This information was taken from the Clarisonic Website. Be sure to do your own research or consult with a doctor before making medical decisions.

My Opinion:

Mine arrived fully charged so I was able to use it right out of the box. It did say in the directions though that you need to charge for 24 hours before using. Both my unit and the unit that I’m giving away have the same rechargeable base. It’s so nice that we don’t have to go through batteries.

The Clarisonic brush has a nice smooth pulse that feels great to me. I actually noticed a difference in my face after using it twice. A friend of mine said she noticed a difference using hers after four weeks. I think I just noticed my face looked brighter (I’m hesitant to say younger but that was my first thought) I’m not making any claims for this company, I’m just giving you my crazy opinion for whatever it’s worth.

I’m terrible about washing my face regularly so having this brush helps me to remember, because I actually enjoy doing it.
