Clarisonic - Classic or Mia?

[soocool]

DD and I went to Ulta this morning. She saw the Clarisonic and wants the Clarisonic Mia. I said she should get the classic.

Is one better than the other? She also said that if she purchased it from the Clarisonic website she would get a $65 gift that would include :

Limited Edition Pink Brush Head (Normal)
6 oz. Gentle Hydro Cleanser
Limited Edition “Hope is Beautiful” travel bag

It depends. Do you travel? The Mia is smaller and fits better in a travel bag. The Classic has beeps that tell you when to switch to
another area of your face and when the two minutes are done. I think it also has an indicator when the battery needs to be recharged.
The Mia doesn't but neither of those things are really necessary. I think the smaller size is convenient. I have the classic and have
bought the Mia for two of my kids. I think those are the only differences. I know there is one now that you can buy a body brush
attachment and I think it is the classic size.

I would also check QVC. Sometimes their package deals are better. Clarisonic has great customer service. They can tell by the
serial numbers where you bought it. They replaced one for me for free and were so quick in shipping it to me.

Also, I don't see much difference in the brushes. The sensitive is slightly softer but in the end I don't think it matters all that much.
I was not impressed by the cleanser, I wouldn't even bother with it. I use cetaphil. If you can get a deal that comes with extra
brushes or a travel bag, go for that. The bag allows it to dry without getting moisture in your other bags. The replacement brushes
are 25. @. That would be the best deal for me.

I wanted a Clarisonic brush for awhile but have trouble dropping on $200+ on something just for me (BESIDES JEWELRY!)... Recently Olay came out with a brush for only about $30 (2 packs of replacement heads are only about $10 for a two pack). I purchased it pretty quick and have been very happy with it.
My face feels much cleaner, I don't have to use too much cleanser with it and I have noticed my pore have become smaller.
I totally recommend giving it a shot, especially if you aren't sure you want to invest $200 in a brush.

I got the Mia for Christmas from my DH. I have pretty sensitive skin and I really like it, definitely feel it gets my skin cleaner at the end of the day, and absorbs night cream better after using. The Mia comes with the sensitive brush head and is less expensive. Also, mine is torquoise so it matches my bathroom. I like that it's smaller, fits well in my hand, and takes up less space in a drawer or in my shower rack.

Thanks eveyone for the info. DD went on the Clarisonic website last night and ordered the MIA in blue. She also had it personalized (for free). She decided on the MIA because of the smaller size and that she will take it with her to college later this year. (how could I have forgotten about that?!) She will be getting a case and another brush head for free, plus once she registers it will gate $25.00 towards a future purchase.

That's great Soocool! I bought the Mia for my son who is in college. He was a little embarrassed taking the regular clarisonic
to the bathroom with him! It was a little bulky. Your daughter will love it! I may get myself a smaller one for traveling too.
