I finally got it! I got this for Cristmas from my bf, and I got the MIA, which is perfect. I have compared the different clarisonics, and the MIA sounded the best to me, one speed, compact, great for travel. I found the plus or classic are not worth it, the second speed is actually a low one vs the original, and it is chunkier.
so all in all, I love this device. I am always paranoid about properly cleansing my skin at night. I wear make up every day.... but I want to make sure I remove it at night, and that can be tough. I use olive or grapeseed oil to remove my make up, my foundation, eyeliner, mascara (like removes like principle)... then I follow with a cleanser, and every now and then exfoliate or use masks to get that clean feeling.
With Clarisonic is so much easier, so much faster. It's effective yet gentle on the skin. I don't care for their cleansers, I use mine, and it works great.
I am only 22, so I don't have any heavy lines and wrinkles, nor do I have crazy pores, so i cannot comment on the so called minimizing effects the Clarisonic might have on those, however my skin does feel smoother and I am very pleased with it.

LUSH Seanik Solid Shampoo Bar
Another great shampoo from Lush. I love their solid shampoos. The bar lasts for a long time.. It's not my favourite, but it does the job well. It cleans the hair... I like the smell.... I like it!

Nah! Not worth it! I don't usually use face primers, but i finally gave in, the girl at sephora talked my into it... and i used it one night, before going out, to test it's resistance and overall performance. I fouund my regular La roche Possay moisturizer does a better job at prepping my skin for my foundation. I should mention I use Mufe Hd foundation... which I love. I found that this primer caked up my skin. I took away from that beautiful finish the foundation gives me. It looked and felt heavy and didn't find that my make up lasted particularly well through the night.
I won't repurchase, in fact I won't be using it again.

Freeman Facial Enzyme Mask Pineapple

I tried this after hearing a few friends rave about it. It's cheap and thought I might as well see what's it all about. I didn't see anything special with it. I used it a few times and then gave up on it. I also don't lke the ideea of a fruit enzyme mask that has been sitting on a shelf in a drugstore for years. I would rather mash my own pineapple and papaya and other fruits into a fresh fruit acid mask. Natural, cheap, effective. -
Klorane Dry Shampoo with Nettle Oil Control

I am not a hge fan of dry shampoos. I want to cut down on the frequency of my hair washes, as I know it's bad to wash it often, but I can't help but feel down on those days when my hair is all greasy and weird. I hoped this dry shampoo would help but I can't help but feel just as weird. It may look a bit better, but not as oily but it feels heavy and itchy... sometimes I put up with it, but it doesn't compare to that feeling of fresly washed hair. -
LUSH Squeaky Green Shampoo Bar

Great stuff! I love this shampoo. The bar leathers up nicely, and it cleas so so well. It's pretty gentle, yet it cleans well. I like to alternate bewteen shampoos, I'll use this shampoo about once a week, to swtich it up... I removes residue very well, yet I don't find it dries out my hair, I don't find it to be harsh.
And it lasts for a long time.

I am also trying to minimize my hair washing. so I decided to give this dry shampoo a try. I don't get it.... I do not like dry shampoos. I feel like my hair is still dirty.... it does not look so greasy, but instead it looks powdery. I tried brushing it, but it's very hard to dissipate that powder in my dark coloured hair. :(
All in all, I barely use it. I love the feel of fresh clean hair, and I do not find that this shampoo helps with the feel or the look of my hair on days that I don't wash. I can do without it.
