Clarisonic Opal Sonic Infusion System with Anti-Aging Sea Serum

A palm-sized sonic infusion device, the Opal skin system is specially designed to help build skin's resilience over time. By gently tapping the skin around your eye at 125 sonic movements per second, the Opal dispenses our specially formulated Anti-Aging Sea Serum, maximizing absorption in a way that's not possible with your finger alone.

 

My Opinion:

 

I had my Clarisonic cleanser for 3 years and have been using it nearly everyday, so when I found out about the opal, I've decided to try it out.

My undereye area seems to be my major problem area, I have dry lines and wrinkles around it, but if I use anything that's too rich I'll get millia (not a good combo), so eye care product is something that I don't change often.

I've never used this with the anti-aging sea serum that came with the opal, but have been using it in conjunction with my Ultima II Extraordinaire Supreme Pure Collagen Eye Contour Reconstructing Treatment, which is a water based eye serum, I think that absorbtion has been improved, but other than that I didn't really notice much of a difference.

My Opinion:

I had this kit for nearly 4 months, and I didn't want to write a review until I was absolutely sure that I like it.This was expensive and I didn't wanted to mislead anyone into getting it.

If you have been following my blog, you would have noticed that I've initially bought the Pretika SonicDermabrasion Facial Brush, which I've read reviews comparing it with the clarisonic and since the Pretika was alot cheaper I got it. Unfortunatley Pretika's brush head is way to harsh for my skin and I've to give it away.

I did some research before purchasing it and was debating whether I should get the mia or plus, and I've end up getting the plus mainly because of the timer. I use it in my shower and with the timer it reminds me the time to move the brush into other places.

Anyway, after using it for about 3 months I know that i won't be able to survive without it. It really cleanses my skin, improve it's texture and absorption of skin care product. I've break out less and I actually feel incomplete if i don't wash my face with it.

I only use it in the evening, and I still need to exfoliate my skin once per week (note that I usually exfoliate 3x per week before using clarisonic).

Regarding the brush head, I got 2 of it, sensitive and gently skin, both seems to work fine for me. Note that you have to change your bursh head every 3 months.
