HI everyone!
I just did a blog post about some beauty products that I want to try! If anyone has tried them, let me know what you thought (esp the Clarisonic + Moroccan Oil!). They're so expensive, so any experiences you have had or advice would be very very appreciated :) Thanks guys! xx

I love my Clarisonic - but it's not a daily use kind of thing for me. Every other day, and you don't push it into your skin... you just hold it up to your face so it rests gently atop the surface so it can glide across your skin to exfoliate. Everyone has their own routine though - and it's trial and error to see what cleanser to use and how frequent one should use it.

Aside from that, my skin has never looked better. After 6 months of use - I can say that I've definitely noticed a change for the better in my skin's texture and overall appearance. I break out next to nothing during my monthly [before, it was at least 2-3 pesky bumps] and the pores around my t-zone have reduced in size. More even skintone... scars slowly fading. Everyone reacts differently to it though...

Sephora has an awesome return policy, so if you do get the chance, give it a try.  =)

Thanks Soma, this is brilliant! I also don't have that bad skin, just the breakouts at that time of the month like you! Everyone raves about it so I just really want to try it lol. It's just hard because as you said, it will work differently for everyone! And can you really return it at Sephora if you don't like it?!!? This is amazing! Do you know how long they allow you to try it for? xx

I don't think there's really a limit on how many days you can hold onto something at Sephora... I think I've returned something that was a good 2 months old before... even w/o a receipt, they take makeuup and give back store credit. Best to double check their website for confirmation on a deadline though...  =)

Sephora's return policy is within 30 days of purchase, and I think you need the original packaging and a receipt if you want the credit back to your card. (I just keep the packaging and receipts of everything I'm *trying out* and when I decide I'm keeping it I'll chuck the packaging & receipt.) Otherwise, as Soma said, I think they'll issue you store credit. :)

Hello there...I have the clairsonic Mia...I love it. It's a little smaller and cheaper than the original but it works well for me. I really notice a difference in the feel of my skin...gets rid of those yucky dry skin flakes. I use it with philosophy purity to wash my face. I use it daily with the sensitive skin brush and have no problems. I do notice when I don't use it for a few days my face doesn't feel as smooth or soft. The Moroccan oil I haven't used but I have tried the tarte version and the though of putting oil on my face freaked me out at first but it absorbs well and does wonders on my chapped lips without tasting gross. Hope this was helpful!

Def. get the MIA - I have the PRO, and to sadly, I don't use the other speed settings or body brush functions. I use it strictly as a face brush on the same setting it was set to on the day I first used it. I know many that have purchased the Clarisonic and stuck with the same setting. MIA is your best bet.
