It has been 2 weeks since I received my Clarisonic PLUS from the Vogue Influencer Network and put it into my daily routine. After the first week, you may remember that I started using the Refreshing Gel Cleanser on my face when the Gentle Hydro Cleanser wasn’t working very well for my oily/acne-prone skin. For those next two days, I used the Clarisonic PLUS with the Refreshing Gel Cleanser and something was just going wrong. I think my skin is actually way more sensitive than I ever thought. My face just seemed irritated with me: blotchy, red, and about to grace me with a breakout. I still really don’t know if it was the cleanser or the Clarisonic brush or the combination of the two that was causing the irritation. I had to switch things ups fast because it was not a good look! I took the next day off from using the Clarisonic and used one of my favorite cleansers instead. After one day off, my face looked much more calm.
As of now, I only use the Clarisonic PLUS on my face about every other day. This seems to work much better and doesn’t upset my face. Also, I don’t notice that my face is producing more oil as I mentioned last week. I really do feel like the system gets more dirt and grime off but it’s just not right for me to use everyday at this point. No big deal, everyone is different and maybe I was a little over-zealous at first! This adjustment will allow me to get the Clarisonic PLUS benefits in a way that works for me.
I still like the body brush with the Refining Skin Polish and also use that about every other day. I have not seen any miraculous results yet but it’s only week 2. With continued use, I’m hoping to see a difference in my skin.
Overall, I’m still happy with the Clarisonic PLUS and all of it’s benefits, I just needed to make adjustments in usage that would work for me!
Do you use the Clarisonic PLUS? How do you make it work for YOU?
No problem, Tina! We hope that you find a routine that works for you. Happy cleansing!
Hi Tina! We’re happy that you’re now getting better results from the Clarisonic PLUS. If you find that your skin is still very sensitive, you may want to look into a softer brush head.

Thanks so much for the comment, I probably will end up needing the softer brush head!
