I’ve been a Clarisonic user for a very long time (roughly 15 years). I was actually put onto it by my grandma who is also a Clarisonic user as well as my mother. 3 generations and they never fail. The lower cost one works just fine for a single mother or father on a budget! You don’t have to sacrifice your skincare with Clarisonic. I’d eventually like to give this one to my daughter and upgrade to the digital one in about a year but I’m very pleased with the performance of this one - it’s basically the same except on the digital one you pay for the use of the smart feature basically and app tracking. Also the pink is lovely. I do wish that they would make some “metallic” ones bc metallic is cool but that’s just my personal thought! BUY IT!
