Pros:

clearer skin
smooths texture of skin
smooths fine lines
simplifies routine

Cons:

MUST use a gentile cleanser
A couple of weeks of purging
Did i mention that you cannot continue using cleansers meant for acne

I treated myself with the clarisonic pro for my birthday about 6 weeks ago. I was not a fan of any of the cleansers that came with the brush they left my skin either too oily or too dry. I continued to use my usual acne wash with the brush for the first week. My skin broke out terribly sort of like all the potential blemishes came to the surface at the same time. I stuck with the clarisonic as i had read about others who had an experience of purging when they started using the system. While my skin was broken out I was careful to avoid any actively inflamed pimples when using the brush as to avoid spreading bacteria. I would also clean the bristles of the brush with a little alcohol after each use to make sure no bacteria would stick around. Everything changed when i decided that I needed a more gentle cleanser. I had cetaphil cream in mind when i went to the store but then i saw the cetaphil antibacterial bar. It really is the best for using with this brush. It foams nicely which helps keep the brush from being too abrasive. I have now had clear skin for a month after over a decade of dermatologists, peels, acne systems, irritated skin, cystic acne and bad texture. The only thing keeping my from being happy with my skin at this point is the acne scars. I am hoping that they get better with time using the clarisonic, but if they do not I will consider laser treatments.

Pros:

-clears acne
-makes skin softer
-evens out texture

Cons:

-changing brush head every 3 months
-can't be used alone

I have been using the clarisonic for about 5 years now. It has helped clear up my skin quite a bit! Although I must say that it is only one part of my skincare regimen. I found that my skin has become less oily and using a natural cleanser instead of something like Proactiv has been beneficial for my skin. Diet and drinking alot of water generally have helped improve my skins appearance as well. The main point is that a prospective buyer shouldnt expect ONLY the clarisonic to solve their acne problems, there are other important things that will lead to clear skin too.

Pros:

-Buffs out dirt from pores
-skin is softer and smoother
-clearing acne

Cons:

Price but (go to ebay if the price isn't cost friendly) I have the pro for just $150 retail is like 250

ACNE CLEARS FROM THE INSIDE OUT! THE CLARISONIC IS JUST A SUPPLEMENT TO CURE ACNE...change your diet! it is a challenge but do it! don't discourage others from this product. DRINK WATER AND LEAFY GREEN VEGGIES! ok, now, because the clarisonic does aggitates (not irritate) the dirt out of the pores, get a NATURAL CLEANSER. your face isn't made from benzol peroxide, use natures ingredients. try nubian heritage the have alot of natural different products for cheap! as far as dryness, use coco butter, vitamin e oil or something like that. before the clarisonic i would apply coco butter or vitamin e oil and it would just SIT on my face, now my skins absorbs it WELL! my faceisn't oily it looks fresh =). and take fish oil pills if your acne is irritated...if you use the clarisonic as directed you shouldn't have any problems. I didn't I LOVE IT!

Pros:

Feels great
Exfoliates gently
Can be used with any cleanser or scrub
Keeps pores clear
Helps blemishes
Waterproof
Doesn't require batteries
Sturdy (I've dropped it a few times in the shower)

Cons:

None!

I have been using Clarisonic for much over a year, and recently bought the MIA version for travel. I and my sister both love it. It exfoliates gently without having to use harsh scrubs ( even if you would like to use a scrub, you can apply the product to your face and go over it with the Clarisonic, which works so much better ) and keeps my pores very clear. After about a week of use you can see and feel the difference in your skin. It's so much smoother, and it really evens out skin tone. I plan to use it for as long as I can.

Pros:

Deep Cleanses
Pays for itself over time

I purchased the Mia version of this brush over a month ago. I have seen great improvement in my skin. I am no longer breaking out anywhere near as much as I was before. I still get the occasional blemish. However they are no longer painful and deep under skin. The blemish clears much faster less than 3 days now. My skin looks brighter and healthier. I love this brush.

Pros:

clears acne
skin is soft
lines are gone
worth every penny

Cons:

None!

I have been using the Clarisonic for about 2 months now and I can't say enough good things about it. It has changed my skin and my life. I have visited 3 dermatologists and an endocrinologist trying to clear up my adult acne. I am now 30 and this have been a battle for me since age 12. I was so tired of using prescription medications with little results. I really do think the doctors were running out of prescriptions. This was also very expensive. I no longer wanted to go out, see old friends, or even relatives because I was so embarrassed about my skin. Kids would say 'Why do you have so many dots?' Now they say 'Miss, you don't have those dots anymore!' I use the Clarisonic faithfully, every morning and night. I use a gentle cleanser. Simple is better. Get back to the basics. The cleansing cycle is only one minute long. I must admit'I use it for at least 3 minutes each time because my acne was so severe. Fast forward two months. My face is completely clear! I do have one or two pop up once in a while, but they heal much faster now. Someday my scars will be gone as well. Using the Clarisonic makes me happy that I am doing something to make my skin healthier without using any medications. This seems to be a natural and permanent solution. I hope this product works this well for everyone. My deepest gratitude to Clarisonic. Thank you!

Pros:

It really works!

Cons:

None so far.

I was fighting with my skin, hormonal changes, winter, and constantly breaking out. I got the Clarisonic as a gift for Christmas. I use it every day, morning and night with the sensitive head. My rough, textured, and irritated skin is once again becoming soft and smooth. I tried everything to make the dryness go away, spent $200 on moisturizers alone...this was the answer. 80% less breakouts in just 2 weeks, dryness 95% gone. Perfect choice if you are a girl that wears makeup too! P.S. The body brush is amazing if used with a scrub!

Pros:

Cleared up my acne almost completely. Skin is softer and less oily.

Cons:

Price

In the past, I've tried multiple prescription washes and gels in an effort to be rid of acne. These had little result, as I would still get one or two cysts at a time as well as smaller pimples. I've been using the Clarisonic for the past month and a half in addition to my normal Clean and Clear salicylic acid cleanser and the difference has been amazing. My face is now almost completely clear. The zits I do get are small and go away quickly. In addition, I've noticed my skin is softer and less oily. I used the Clarisonic twice a day for a minute each for the first few weeks, but have since started using it longer and it's really helped!
