Supersonic...-J.J.Fad

Remarkably, when researching the artist who recorded this song, I discovered it's amazing similarity to one of my all time fave tunes, "Fergalicious". Hmmm...check it out and let me know if I'm right.


Anyway, the theme for this post is: I'm in love! (and it doesn't even need batteries!!)



The other day, my hottie hubby (also the owner of an ad agency) asked if I had ever heard of something called a Clarisonic. I had not. He explained that it was a sonic skin care device, and that I should go get one and let him know my thoughts.





Not on the 'inexpensive" side, this $225.oo rechargeable wonder is worth every cent! I had to wait 24 hours for the initial battery charging, but once I was able to use it, I was THRILLED! I thought it was a spinning brush, but like it's predecessor from the same company (the Sonicare toothbrush), it sonically cleans skin with tiny vibrations! It's like I got this awesome facial massage while getting all the ickies out of my pores! Turns out chickies were actually exfoliating with the toothbrush! Too funny!



All you do is guide the Clarisonic brush across your skin! It has an audible timer to let you know when to re-locate...one minute total with 20 seconds on the forehead, twenty on the chin, and 10 seconds per cheek. Sweet!



It also came with a mondo body brush attachment, and is waterproof for use in the shower! Yeah, baby! Good clean fun! You can reset the timer for continual use. Can I get an AMEN?!
I am imagining all kinds of attachments.


They say it's a great exfoliating prep prior to putting on tanning cream, too!


As part of his "research", I got to get all my close friends together to test it out and tell their thoughts, too! They are all buying them now. I wish I could get a commission! Maybe I should try to buy stock!


Then, we tried this new $245.00 eye machine thing (made by the same company), called the Opal. It "infuses" this miracle sea-serum into the skin under the eye to reduce the look of the road map that lives there. I am not joking here, people. It seems like a lot of dough to spend, but not when you add up the cost of ONE facial, plus tip, plus the time and gasoline to get there and back, etc.


The Opal box has unretouched photos of what they claimed would happen after just one use. I doubted them. Highly. Then I tried it for myself. Voila. I made my friends watch the changes. Amazing stuff. When the little vibrations got near my nose, it almost seemed to open up my sinuses, too! They should research that. They say it's gentle enough to use twice a day, which is perfect!



One minute with the Clarisonic, and one with the Opal. Twice a day...that's four minutes of "ME" time! I'll take it! A few of my friends already had Clarisonics, (some for several years) and really like them. If any of you out there in the Blogosphere have any comments or ideas, please share!

I'm one that has had the Clarisonic for several years and I, too, am in LOVE. I'm getting the Opal and am very excited!!! Glad you discovered LOVE too!

Anxiously awaiting the arrival of MY Clarisonic.....and you're spot on about Fergie ripping off JJ Fad. "Supa-SONIC". I thought that the first time I heard Fergalicious.

p.s. nice subtle hints about other uses. :)
