Clarisonic Skin Brush?

[carrotstick]

I saw on a couple of the acne-related threads that some women have had great success with the Clarisonic skin brush? I've struggled with acne for 15 years... tried every toxic and non-toxic thing in existence. Even went on Accutane a couple years ago... suddenly the acne is coming back.

Would love to hear from some women who have tried the Clairisonic as well as other brands that are similar. I was able to get a Pretika at Target for MUCH less, but just comparing the pictures of the 2, the Clarisonic looks much more hi-tech.

Thanks!

Well, I have only had mine for a week, but sos far so good. My skin feels heavenly! The blemishes I had when I got it are healing and I do not have any new ones yet. One of my friends recommended it to me and her skin looks great! I have known her for 9 years and it never has looked better. She swears she has not had a breakout in 4 months!

There is a makeup web site called makeupalley and there are tons of reviews on there. Search not only the review boards but the skin care discussion boards.

I have had a Clarisonic for a few years now. I loved it at first then after a year stopped using it. No idea why, I think I just got lazy and then we moved and there is no plug in the bathroom. Then when I started having some odd bump issues I got diligent about using it again and am very happy with the results. It does what it says it does. I would recommend starting with the softest brush and start 1x every other day or so as your face gets used to it. I use the sensitive skin brush 1x a day. I know some people who cannot use it every day and others who use it 2xs a day.

I have used a Clarisonic brush for about six months now.

My skin is not perfect, but it looks better than it has in a long time. I do still have an occassional break-out, but not like before.

The Clarisonic has helped me more than anything else I tried (antibiotics, prescription creams, acne wash)

I use it with the Kiss My Face Olive Oil bar soap. After cleaning my face, I put on aloe, a little coconut oil around my eyes. I use Lily of the Desert Aloe Gelly. I do this twice a day, and my skin is looking a lot better.
