Didn't Last Long
-06.18.13
Quick Take: easy to use, overpriced, poor value
I bought my Mia 14 months ago and it has already stopped working. I know that most people love their Mia, but I had a pretty lukewarm experience. It definitely removed all of the makeup from my face in a way that face wash alone can't do. However, I was hoping it would help clear up my acne and it did not. I have some mild acne, small bumps and whatnot along my jaw line. I tried a few different brush heads and face washes but it never had any effect. I also didn't notice a difference in the overall look or feel of my skin. Now it's broken after a mere 14 months. I feel like I paid $120 to own a glorified makeup remover for just over a year. Not worth it.

Changed my skin

Quick Take: easy to use
I never had breakouts in my teens but in my early/mid twenties I kept getting acne on my chin and nothing worked to get rid of it. Also after the spots went away I was left with pigmentation. In comes the Clarislnic Mia. I've been using it for 4 months and I have seen a HUGE difference in my skins clarity and texture. I don't feel that this alone has been the solution but I feel this helps boosts the effectiveness of my skin are routine. I feel comfortable going out with no foundation and I find myself needing very little when I want to wear makeup. AMAZING and worth the investment!

Quick Take: easy to use
I love my Clarisonic and was bummed when it suddenly wouldn't hold a charge. When it was "charging" it would just continuously pulse. I called Clarisonic customer service and explained what was happening. I was one month past my warranty but they sent me a BRAND NEW ONE and charger with a new 1 year warranty and two free brush heads plus a prepaid label to return my old one. All of this came within 1 week of calling in. Love the product and love the company!

Great product!

Quick Take: easy to use
I love my mia. I got it about a month ago and am addicted! I didn't go through the period that people are talking about where you break out, so right when I started using it my skin cleared up! It feels so good to touch, so soft and smooth. I left my mia at my boyfriend's house for about a week and noticed a difference right away. My skin went from being flawless and smooth to kind of gross and gritty. I would highly recommend the Mia!

Like a Magic Wand...

For my face! Although it doesn't completely suppress my pimples from popping up every now and then, it helped clear my acne on my forehead within 7-9 days of use. I have dry skin so using it once a day at night was enough! Love love love this product!

Amazing...but not for everyday use
-06.10.13
Quick Take: easy to use
After a year of having regular facials at the spa, I decided to "splurge" on the Clarisonic Mia. Facials are usually $130 every 6 weeks so $130 for this contraption seemed reasonable and a good way to actually save money. After buying it and using it once I then decided to read reviews so that I didn't allow others to make up my mind for me. A lot of reviews were great, the not so good ones were a little scary (broken capillaries, unknown bumps etc). After using once I was amazed! I have combination skin but no major problems. My face felt like silk, my pores seemed smaller, my argan oil was absorbed more easily and my makeup went on smoother than normal. With that said, I don't believe this should be used twice or even once a day as advertised. Using too often is possibly what is causing problems. It's the same as exfoliating your skin. I think this should be used 2-3 times a week max and depending on your skin tone and texture, maybe even once a week.

Love it so far!

Just bought a week or so ago! So far it feels great and makes me want to actually wash my face! I have acne and reddish skin but hasn't bothered either much makes it feel a little more sensitive so I just avoid delicate areas.

Reduces pore size
-06.06.13
Quick Take: easy to use
I really love this cleaner. It has made my face so soft and reduced my pore size. I have not used anything other than the cleanser that came with it since I haven't run out yet. I love that I don't have to worry about changing batteries too. I wish that I had had this cleanser when I was younger and had much worse acne problems! The product is quality but I still think it's a little overpriced, hence 4 stars instead of 5.

Okay....but not the results I expected
-06.06.13
Quick Take: easy to use, not what i expected
I bought this product when I was struggling with moderate adult acne in hopes that it would get rid of at least some of my blemishes. Within about 8 weeks of using it, I didn't see much of any result in the condition of my acne. After visiting a dermatologist I realize that my acne needed antibiotic and not so much care from the outside. I still use this Clarisonic and I can say that my skin feels a little softer and it does feel like it's being decently cleaned but when I read reviews before purchasing, I expected much more noticeable difference in the condition of my skin. For the money I spent, I was disappointed.

New Favorite Beauty Tool
-06.04.13
I think I bought this product kicking and screeming. I had been hearing how great it was for a long time but was skeptical to say the least! Fortunately the associate at my Sephora took the time to explain the benefits one more time to me, and I finally gave in..... I am so glad I did! I am 33 with very sun damaged skin. I no longer tan for fear of cancer, so I'm left with dull, splotchy, pale skin with gigantic poors! I've tried everything under the sun from serums to creams, from microdermabrasion to peels. Nothing seemed to help.... Who knew all I needed was the Clarisonic.
My face felt so clean and soft after the first use, and I can actually see a reduction in my poor size & my skin is so much brighter! My make up and lotions go on like a dream now too. It actually feels like I just had micro derm after I use it! It is well worth the investment & while I haven't tried the newer versions, I find this original Clarisonic works perfect & I wouldn't change a thing!

Quick Take: easy to use
After the first use, my skin was baby bottom soft. I suffer from the dreaded adult acne with whiteheads and red bumps that just don't go away. It has taken several weeks but I am beginning to notice that either the bumps are disappearing or at least are becoming less red. I absolutely love this and would recommend to anyone!

I am completely satisfied with the Clarisonic Mia. I have been using it now for about 2 weeks and I can totally tell a difference. My skin feels so soft now and it looks better. I haven't gotten the breakouts some people say happen at first, so fingers crossed I won't!

I don't know what i would do without this product!
-05.29.13
Quick Take: easy to use
I can't and refuse to go back to my skin care routine prior to using the Clarisonic. Ever since I purchased this product, I notice my skin has been more clear than it ever was before. My trouble areas have cleared up and my face feels so much cleaner and it can actually breathe! Yes, I do get pimples and my trouble are the zits that never surface. Well, the Clarisonic is key to helping me healing process go faster. You can't avoid complete, those under-the-skin zits and they HURT! But with the Clarisonic, I am able to tackle the problem and make sure the life cycle of these zits are minimized.

Was Skeptic, Now a Fan

Quick Take: easy to use
The clarisonic system has become a welcome addition to my skin care routine. Initially, I had what I would call a decent skin care routine, but still experienced occasional breakouts that frustrated me. The Mia brush has since taken my routine and skin to a new level. Now I have very few breakouts. Worth the purchase.

Over priced
-05.26.13
I bought this and ended up retuning it because I felt that for that amount of money it should have worked better. With that being said, I never did buy a different brush head. I only used the sensitive skin one that it came with. I bought it because I have noticed my pores enlarged and need them cleaned better. Well, that didn't happen. I still gave this 3 stars though because my skin was crazy soft after each use.

Quick Take: easy to use
I purchased this mostly for my husband. He was complaining about the appearance of large pores and mild acne. I have relativity clear skin, but have dry patches and redness. He has seen an improvement in his skins texture, no more blackheads, and his acne is clearing up. My skin looks better than it every has, I have less redness, less random patches of dryness and my pore are clean so their appearance has been reduced.
The mia is easy to use. We share the system, but both have our own heads. Both of us broke out for the first week or so, but after our skin adjusted it's made a big difference. We both only use it once a day regularly. My husband can use it twice a day with no problem, but my skin is too sensitive even with the sensitive head.
It does take 24 hours to charge, and each charge is 20ish minutes, but this doesn't bother us, we just take a break for a day.
The reason I wont put 5 stars is that it is quite expensive, plus replacing the heads every 3-4 months adds up.

Quick Take: easy to use, softening, gentle, good value, chic, anti-aging
I debated buying the Clarisonic Mia for ages. It was very expensive to me, and I had a hard time deciding if it was worth it. I took the leap about 6 weeks ago, and really wish I'd bought it sooner. I love it--I have the light blue with the sensitive brush. It makes my skin baby soft. I have not had a break out since I started using it, but I had one shortly before and the brush cleared the red marks in record time. I tend to over use it, I use it for about 3 cycles per wash. I use it with Alpha Hydrox's Foaming Face Wash, which is very gentle. I use it with my Clarins cleansers sometimes, but I use the Alpha Hydrox most often. I really can't think of any negatives, not even the price. It is worth the price. I think dewy skin is worth any price. No irritation to be had, not even that first use. I'm prone to having broken capillaries, and the Mia has caused none. It causes no redness. Everything (foundation, sunblock) goes on smooth. Love the ritual, I could use it for hours, it is so tempting!
