Clarisonic Mia2

          I have had my clarisonic mia2 for over a year by now. Wow, time really flew by fast. There are always ads in magazines on clarisonic and it presents research on how effective it is on cleaning your skin. So, I did have my eye on clarisonic for a decent amount time because I have acne prone skin and have always been seeking ways to improve my skin. It took me a while to buy clarisonic just because of the price. Clarisonic arrived on the day of my birthday and I remember how excited I was to try it. I bought the clarisonic mia2 in pink with the sensitive skin brush head. Originally, I wanted to get the clarisonic with an acne cleansing brush head, but I decided not too since the price of it was higher and I know I can buy refills. I remember reading reviews about the sensitive brush head, which touched on how the sensitive brush head was harsher than the normal brush head. When I tried using my mia2 the first time, I tried to not push it hard against my skin since I have never tried it before and because of the reviews. The brush did feel quite rough the first few times, but I gradually got used to it. Also, I did breakout after using my mia2, but then again my skin didn't breakout as much gradually. I use my mia2 3 days a week because it is an exfoliating cleanser. My usual routine after using the cleanser is to put on a mask because it exfoliates my skin so I think it would help my skin absorb better. I noticed that the cleanser opened up my pores, which made it easier for my pore strips to pull out the blackheads. The directions for the cleanser states that you can use it when showering, but I never did that. I guess I just don't like to do so much things during my shower. 

              Not long ago I was able to buy the acne cleansing brush heads because of my part time job. This brush head is definitely softer than the sensitive one, which I had no problem with. So, was clarisonic mia2 effective in improving my acne prone skin? I have to say that every time I use mia2, it makes my skin feel smoother. Also, I feel that it helps to clear the dirt and dead skin cells from my skin. Although I still have acne, I kept on using this cleanser because I know my acne can be caused by other factors like bad sleeping habits. This cleanser might not work for everybody as I too don't know the real results from using this cleanser (not a scientist). Everyone's beauty routine and habits differ so I would suggest to be open minded to try new things. 

            

P.s. I really like the green color though :)
