A Squeaky Clean Face!

Ever since the Clarisonic face brush came out I've been looking for alternatives because it was pricier. Here are the alternatives I found and the Clarisonic (yay! I finally got it!). The good, the bad and the ugly on 3 different brushes I tried.
The Sephora Manual Brush.
Rating: Great for starting a routine but not so great for lazy gals
My first choice naturally like at about $6 it definitely made a difference in my routine. But, if you get lazy you won't be doing it everyday at 6,000 revolutions (like a Clarisonic). Also, they're disposable, once the brushes get icky this brush gets tossed!
The Sirius Sonic Brush.
Rating: Not very popular but Budget Friendly
What I thought was truly going to be an alternative to buying a Clarisonic truly served its purpose for a while. The first days were puppy love and obsession with the Sirius Sonic. The problem is...I tried the Clarisonic and its smooth,soft bristles and vibrations on my skin and it left it baby-butt soft. The bristles on the Sirius Sonic get a little tough after a month or two. It uses two AA batteries and I never had to change them once I started using it.So that's a great quality.
Finally! The Clarisonic Mia 2
Rating: Pricy but a great investment in the long run
Truly worth waiting for. 2 speeds. One I use for face wash and the slower one for my bi-weekly face scrub. Never have my creams and serums melted into my skin as deliciously as they do after using the Clarisonic. I use the Clarisonic's smooth bristles all over my neck and chest as well. The ergonomic shape of the brush fits perfectly in my hand and doesn't slip in the shower. Brush replacements are a bit pricy and there's one for every type of skin. Truly an investment to make all your face products work so much better!
Stay beautiful!
