Sonic Face Cleansers: Do They Work?

Getting a cleaner-than-clean face may seem appealing, but is the latest trend in skincare all it's cracked up to be? In a word, yes. The Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System gets rave reviews from most of its users, according to TotalBeauty.com and other beauty product review sites. The company claims that sonic cleaning uses a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to remove dirt with its special brushes, each of which serves a different type of skin - normal, sensitive, delicate, deep pore and body. The system claims to remove six times more makeup and two times more dirt and oil than cleansing with just your hands. The company claims the product solves other skin problems, such as clogged pores, oily areas, dry patches, large pores and even fine lines. All you have to do is hook up your desired brush to the handheld device and hold it up to facial areas for a few seconds at a time - the device beeps when you're ready to move onto the next section.
