Clarisonic

recently i had been seeing this product everywhere! in sephora, on beauty blogs etc. and i was totally convinced to buy it! :D i've been using it for a couple of weeks now!

this is from their website:

While cleansing is the first step in any skin care ritual, it is often overlooked.  Typical manual cleansing can leave behind dirt and oil trapped in pores. This build-up can damage the appearance and health of your skin and keep your skin care products from working like they should. Used and recommended by spas and dermatologists, Clarisonic Sonic Skin Cleansing Systems use a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to gently, yet thoroughly remove 6X more makeup and 2X more dirt and oil than cleansing with your hands alone. Cleaner skin is the first step toward healthier skin. And healthier skin is smoother, more radiant and more beautiful.

mm not really sure how much my skin has improved. it seems like the pores around my nose got smaller! but it might just be my imagination hahaha. i still have some pimples, but that's probably from the food i eat. i definitely do feel that my skin is much cleaner after each cleanse though! the clarisonic has an automatic timer such that it turns off after 1min, so usually i would rub in the cleanser to my face for a bit before using the clarisonic on it.

i havent seen any astounding results, but i like how my face feels cleaner after i use it :) hopefully it's a long run kind of thing and my face will become more matte as i continue using it! :)

anyway, it's retailing in singapore in sephora for $375, which is insanely overpriced!!!! :O i got mine from USA when papa went over for US$119 i think. you might want to try out this place http://skincarerx.com/clarisonic.html which ships to singapore, and is apparently still cheaper than if you buy it here!

my clarisonic died after less than one year!! :( dunno whether it short circuited or what, but it no longer works :'( and i can't bring it to be fixed because the warranty is for america. sighhh. do consider this if you're thinking of buying the clarisonic!
