Product review: Clarisonic Mia 2
5:06:00 PM
I finally got my hands on this baby after much consideration. The purchase was based on numerous reviews that I have read online. I took me a long time to post a review on Mia 2 because my schedule was packed. I only had the time, now, to slowly write it.
Well, to start it off, I have been wanting to buy Clarisonic product for quite some time after reading it on blogs during the official launch which is around last year. But I postpone my intention, with reason that it is not necessary. I'm not sure why I had the sudden urge to buy it again. It happened when I was in Sephora Queensbay with 2 girl friends of mine. I was looking to purchase the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer.
While walking out from the Sephora, I kind of stopped at the rack which display the Clarisonic products. Neatly display of all the Clarisonic brushes and tools. But prior to that, while paying for my item, I asked the sales girl on what this Clarisonic fuss about. She explained briefly and said that she'll demonstrated later on.
As what she had promised, the salesgirl and the 3 of us walked towards the rack and she explained on what each and every model of Clarisonic does and what are the differences between the brushes. We were like 'Wahh', 'Oohh', 'Really?', 'Wow'. Before the girl even managed to finish explaining everything, my mind has started talking to me 'Cik Yong, you need to get this'.
We left Sephora after the girl explained to us. We thought we'll come back again end of the month and I'll be the first one to purchase and evaluate the result together. All of us agreed. So, come the next day, I thought I try my luck to see whether Lazada has this Clarisonic product available on their website or not. Voila, they're! Best of all they're on sale. Without wasting any second, I texted my girl friends and told them about this. I was the first one to make the purchase, then Su Yen, then Ann. Later on, it was Su Yen's sister and her friends. This Calrisonic thing is contagious.
The price ranges between RM285 to RM299. Mine was RM285. The price depends on the color. The rare color costed more. There were many colors available. Sephora sells RM550 for Mia 2 version.
Each Mia 2 will come with a 'Sensitive' brush as standard. But you can change them by time. Either through Sephora(RM95) or Lazada (RM55, if they're on sale).
Why I choose Mia 2?

So what are the benefits of this baby?
My review:
Since my wedding is around the corner, I'd thought I put this device to good use and test it 1 month before my wedding day. My skin felt slightly smoother from the first use. But I have some breakouts after a week. The effects varies on skin. Different people has different skin, so the outcome will not be the same. Changes will definitely not overnight. It may take weeks or months. But for now, I use Mia 2 day and night with my own cleanser. Do not use scrub cleanser on Mia 2 because the particles might get into the device.
