Clarisonic - "Meet Your Match"

The Clarisonic Skin Care Brush System. At Sephora it is about 200 dollars, however I found it on the internet for about 120 with a coupon code that I found. I was going to buy it after a friend told me it is better than a facial. It came with 1 gel cleanser, 1 toner, and 1 moisturizer. They are all sample size. The brush also came with a charger and a cap to keep it clean, as it can collect dust sitting there. For the price I paid, I give it a 3 out of 5 stars. I can actually live without this product. Number 1 it is really bulky. It takes a lot of space because of the clarisonic electronic system inside of the handle and brush, it is bigger than your average size men's shaver and even heavier. Good luck using it in the tub because it is so bulky. The battery also needs to be constantly charged, however if you are like me and never keep anything charged until it is fully green, you will need to plug it in more often than not. The cleanser and moisturizer that came with the brush can be thrown out as it does not help clear your skin at all. I gave mine away to the lady at the spa. FYI-GRAND SPA for an asian body buff and oil/milk massage is closer to heaven that I have ever felt. More about that later...As for the Clarisonic Brush, I believe the facial sponge for sensitive, acne prone skin is much better, more gentle and about 115 dollars less than the Clarisonic system.
TIP - always remember when using a sponge for your face to not have any chemical dye in it, always use white, or the natural fibers of the brush or sponge, so you do not rub that dye into your skin, especially if you are sensitive.
As for the Clarisonic System, save your money if you have acne prone sensitive skin, as I do not see any improvement from using this system, except a really tight dry sensation afterwards and a bit of redness. I want to actually sell mine, so if anyone wants to buy let me know! Also, the brush seems a bit too rough for my thin skin. I have not "met my match" with this system. Although, I do want to give the OPAL a try, but for 250! I think not...but I may do it on an impulse buy, if I do, I will let you know!

NOTE: I also love the Buf Puf brand sensitive skin sponge, however most places do not sell it anymore. They used to sell it at Wal-Mart, CVS, and Target. However, all three places I have checked and do not sell this brand of sponge any longer, if you ever see this brand, let us know! They do have a lot of brands that copy this sponge, however it is not the same as the Buf Puf brand, since I have tried using then instead, it is not the same. The Buf Puf sponge is about 5 dollars and the copycats are about 2 dollars. A dermatologist actually recommended this sponge to me along with a soap they sell at the pharmacy, Sulfur Soap. This was a great combo in my teens. I simply rubbed the sulfur soap into the sponge front and back and gently scrubbed my face with it concentrating on my t-zone and VERY VERY lightly or ignoring around the jawline, near my eyes, and lower cheeks, since this part of the face is more dry and the skin is thinner in these areas.
