    Hi there! 

    I'm considering buying a Clarisonic plus, but first I have some questions for you:

    1. It might sound silly bot the clarisonic brush allow me to clean every part of my face, even the area around the nose? My skin is really oily around my nose, I have blackheads and little pimples all the time there, so I really hope the brush can reach that place.

    2. I had hear that when you first start using the clarisonic, is pretty common that your skin will breakout, so if your skin breakout, can you please tell me for how long and how bad was it?

    3. Besides cleaning i had seen the clarisonic can also help removing some spots, i have like darker patches in my face, specially around my mouth, in pictures and overall you can't see them, but I know they are there, so I was just wondering if the clarisonic can help me with those and that is there a product I should use + clarisonic to make them dissapear, or at least less dark.

    I would really appreciate every help, you know the clarisonic is expensive and want to be sure if it can help me, I had suffered of acne before and my skin is oily and sensitive and i feel like no product is working good with my skin.

    GET IT. Seriously. Best purchase I have ever made. I have the Clarisonic Pro and I use it with the sensitive skin brush. It does pretty well around the nose -- obviously that's a harder area to get to than, say, your cheeks or chin, but if you're diligent you can clean well around the nose. I didn't have any breakouts when I first started using it, fortunately, although I have had that happen for a few days when I try a new cleanser. I don't know about removing darker patches -- I guess that would depend on how deep down the discoloration/pigmentation goes -- but the Clarisonic has definitely evened out my skin tone by exfoliating.

    The nice thing about the Pro is all the settings are adjustable -- so you can start out at a low intensity for a shorter amount of time and increase as your skin gets used to it. I use mine for two minutes at the highest intensity now.

    I just bought the Clarisonic Mia yesterday, and it's been charging all day. Can't wait to try it and report back on the results! I got the tangerine one at Nordstrom, it came with an extra brush and a cute little bag :)

    (But seriously, 24 hours for a first-time charge? I'm SO IMPATIENT...)

    The Clarisonic will definitely help to cleanse your skin better than any other method. The vibration of the brush helps to lift oil, make-up and environmental debris off the surface of your skin. It's one of the best purchases you can make for your skin.

    It is not an exofliator though. It's true there will be some exfoliation because it lifts all the gunk off your face, but you should still use an exfoliating product once a week.

    It is expensive, but well, well worth it.  :)

    I LOVE my clarisonic brush. Yes, you can clean around your nose very well. The only thing you can't do is get close to your eyes. Just use a good eye makeup remover and eye cream for that! I didn't break out when I first started using the clarisonic brush. I've never really had problem skin just a bit dry but even so, I noticed some big changes. My skin is much more radiant and when I use it I just feel clean. The brush also helps my skin absorb moisturizer after use. I imagine it could help with your complexion/dark spots. Anyway it's worth a try!

    I've been using it twice a day for almost a week and I'm loving it! I was afraid of the initial breakouts everyone talks about, but I didn't get any new ones (maybe because I had a bunch of breakouts already when I started using it). My skin is getting soo soft. :)

    I didn't get any breakouts until about a month after I used the Clarisonic and then it was for about a week.  After that period of time my skin has been great and I haven't had any bad breakouts like I used to have.  I also have discolored places on my face and haven't noticed that the Clarisonic helps with these places.  But I am really glad I purchased it!

    I posted too soon! It's been two weeks now and I had breakouts all this past week, in random places where I don't normally get them. I am stubborn and plan to keep going for at least another month. I'm waitng for that magical time when all the breakouts disappear and my skin clears up :)

    I got over a year ago. I never exprienced breakouts that I would tie to using it. I purchased it because my skin was acting up in the worst way. I assumed it had to do with getting older and the skin just changing due to age, hormone changes etc.

    Best investment. My blackheads that were on my chin, that I notice when looking really close, diminished. My skin texture improved and my tone defintely cleared up. I actually need to get replacement heads cause I've fallen off with the regular use.

    My skin so so bad I had to stop using it. MY skin has never been the same... in a bad way.
