Clarisonic Face & Body Cleansing Brush
For a while now all I’ve been hearing is “clarisonic” this and “clarisonic” that. Girls all over Instagram have been raving about it, Clarisonic being an electric brush that cleanses and exfoliates your face or body. I didn’t intend to go get it myself but I happened to be shopping in Sephora and I was in a credit card burning mood and one thing led to another and I found myself buying a colourful clarisonic with both body and face brush attachments.
I almost regretted my purchase, surely its just another device that I’d use and get bored in a few months? However, I happened to use it to wash my face a few days later after coming back from a wedding and I have to say it cleaned my face, sweeping every last morsel of makeup remover-resistant foundation from my sensitive and makeup-hating skin. Before clarisonic, I’d spend a long time scrubbing my face free with facial wipes and cotton balls but now, I can have a fresh gleaming makeup-free facial skin in a matter of minutes.
I do regret paying extra for the body brush attachment though. Its been a while and I’ve never used it, not once, even though I’ve been meaning to. The facial brush is so lovely but using it every day might irritate your facial skin if its the sensitive kind as it vigorously scrubs your face. It does improve the appearance of pores after usage and gives a nice polished shine to your cheeks and chin once you are done exfoliating with it but I’d recommend it you use it every three or four days or once a week. I use it with Bliss facial cleanser or with La Mer cleanser if I have a big night out or if my skin feels tired.
By the way it doesn’t take long to charge the brush and it will be good to use for a while before you use it again. Also, you do not need to be afraid about water touching it, it will be fine afterwards but make sure its completely dry before you plug it into the charger so you do not get electrocuted. Clarisonic and replacement brushes are available in Sephora Kuwait but I’m sure I’ve seen it being sold in a couple of other places. Mine came with a warranty and cost about 85 KD if I recall correctly but that’s because it contained the body brush as well as the facial brush. If you know you won’t use the body brush then don’t get it.
Have you tried the Clarisonic face or face and body brush? What cleanser do you use with it and where did you get it from?
