Clarisonic harnesses micro-massage technology to clean the face just like a powered toothbrush
(03/06/2010)
Clarisonic® is the first sonic skincare cleansing device which harnesses micro-massage technology to clean the face just like a powered toothbrush. Thanks to this new skincare innovation, women can have a professional facial experience but with at-home convenience. It is already well accepted amongst leading dermatologists and spas, who recommend it for the daily cleansing of skin; however until recently the device has not been available to the home user.
The experience of using Clarisonic is like having a spa facial, offering a deep, penetrating clean that really opens up the pores. Yet it is child’s play to use - just as you would with a toothbrush, you simply apply any non-abrasive facial cleanser to the brush head and switch on. The brush head oscillates 300 times a second, giving the face a deep but gentle massage, working with the skin’s natural elasticity to draw dirt and impurities out, unclogging the pores without harsh abrasion. In fact clinical studies have shown Clarisonic is twice as effective at removing dirt and six times better at removing make-up than manual cleansing.
A huge plus for time-starved women is the fact Clarisonic is as quick as it is easy to use. It takes just a minute to fully massage and cleanse the face, or three minutes for the body, adding no time to the beauty ritual and because it is waterproof it can be safely used whilst in the bath and shower. It also takes away the guesswork – an electronic timer beeps to indicate when you should clean the next part of the face or body to make sure each area receives equally effective attention.
Clarisonic has been proven safe for virtually all skin types and is even recommended by dermatologists for women with chronic conditions and sensitive skin. Its gentle sonic micro-massage action cleans so thoroughly that it also prepares the skin to absorb skin care products easier, improving their effectiveness. Restoring and maintaining moisture on the face is vital for anti-ageing and it has been proven that skincare product absorption rate increases by 61% after cleansing with Clarisonic compared with manual cleansing.
As a result, the Clarisonic will ensure that your mum’s skin always looks healthy and glowing, allowing the skin to experience the full benefits of serums and moisturisers. Indeed Clarisonic is even proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles when used in conjunction with anti-ageing products.
As a result Clarisonic is popular amongst female celebrities including Courtney Cox, Demi Moore and Sarah Jessica Parker, to name but three, who all share a common goal to remain looking as beautiful as possible in the spotlight despite having to juggle work and childcare commitments.
The Classic skincare brush for the face costs £150 whilst the Plus model for the face and body costs £175.
