Beauty Buzz: Squeaky Clean

By |November 4th, 2010|Beauty Buzz|

We all have some trouble spots on our skin from time to time. Whether it be that “time of the month” or just stress, no one likes a blemish stealing the show. Sometimes it seems no matter what spot treatments or face wash we use, our skin just doesn’t get clean! This may be old news to some but Clarisonic makes a true skin miracle worker. Yes, they are the same people who brought you sonic toothbrushes and they  have figured out how to harness that technology to work wonders for your flesh.

Leaving a drippy, damp washcloth hanging around your bathroom is a) unattractive and b) unsanitary (mold anyone?). Using Clarisonic with your daily facial cleanser removes six times as much dirt, oil, and makeup as manual cleaning. Not only that, it increases your skin’s ability to absorb all the fancy lotions and potions you use after washing your face making a washcloth a thing of the past.

The trick is to be sure to use the correct brushes for your skin type (if you have sensitive skin, use the sensitive brush, etc.). And just like all good things, you can overdo it.  While it is a bit pricey, there is a great ROI (return on investment- see I was paying attention in class). Your skin will thank you for it.

Clarisonic Classic Sonic Skin Cleansing System, $195

See ya later, sweetcheeks!
