Clarisonic Mia 2 is the Name of my New Baby

I will say this again, "Do not congratulate me. I'm not pregnant. Hindi pa po magiging kuya si Sam." LOL

And so, what is this baby that I'm talking about? 

To those who are not yet familiar with Clarisonic Mia 2, before I answer you, I'll share with you some bits about my anti-beauty regimen.

For the record, I'm one of the laziest women on earth alive when it comes to applying beauty products. It's not that I'm not really taking care of my skin but I find having a beauty regimen "tedious". I don't usually wash my face when I wake up in the morning. Partly because, I was brought up to believe about "pasma sa mata". "Mapapasma ka 'pag naghilamos ka agad pagkagising mo!", the oldies say. Even at night, I just wash my face if it just feel "too" dirty. Since, mostly I'm indoors, my skin doesn't always feel my definition of "too" dirty. So, I don't see the need! I just wash my face when I take a bath. And, because I have super sensitive skin, I've come to believe that my options are very limited. So I've already given up. My skin will no longer improve. But most of all, I think, I'm just really too lazy. I couldn't stress that enough. And I'm worrying a lot about more important things [than myself] that I often neglect my looks. There are times that I don't even brush my hair for a week! #Losyang

But last year, when I smiled at the mirror, I noticed wrinkles at the corner of my eyes. Yes, frakking W-R-I-N-K-L-E-S! I was just 30 years old, dammit! I really felt horrible! And it made me feel even more terrible when my pre-teen-age niece noticed that too and told me, "Hala Ate Tine, may wrinkles ka na!" That was depressing. Toooo depressing. I know, all these stress are now taking its toll on me and I'm paying the price for all my negligences.

I promise myself that I will never, ever neglect myself again!

And so, when I knew that we're going to Hongkong (come on click it!), I had to buy Clarisonic Mia 2 for me!

What is Clarisonic Mia 2? 

Clarisonic Mia 2 is a beauty device na ang lakas maka-GGSS! Ika nga ni Ms. Jenni Epperson, gandang-ganda sa sarili! The first time I've used my Clarisonic Mia 2, I instantly felt my skin SQUEAKY CLEAN, SOFTER, SMOOTHER, more SUPPLE! 4S na 4S ang peg ng skin ko! It's like I've just undergone a mild facial minus the pain! I immediately told my husband that the device we patiently searched in Tsim Sha Tsui [Hongkong] is really sulit. It even surpasses my expectation! Plus, washing my face is no longer boring for me. It becomes so much fun, exciting and addicting!

Oh, before I forget, I had one big pimple in the forehead when I first used it. I woke up in the morning with that pimple instantly dried out and appeared much smaller! Amazing, right?

For a more formal definition, Clarisonic Mia 2 is an extension of the popular Mia family that gives you all the benefits of sonic cleansing in a compact, easy-to-use style. Mia 2 features two speeds, a one-minute pulsing T-Timer® and a protective travel case for on-the-go sonic cleansing.

What is a sonic cleansing system? Clarisonic Sonic Skin Cleansing Systems use a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to gently, yet thoroughly removes makeup 6x better than cleansing with your hands alone. Cleaner skin is the first step toward healthier looking skin. And healthier looking skin is smoother, more radiant and more beautiful.

Sonic Cleansing Benefits:

• Removes makeup 6x better than manual cleansing
• Leaves skin feeling and looking smoother
• Removes impurities that keep creams and serums from working their best
• Gentle enough to use twice a day
• Reduces oily areas, dry skin patches and blemishes
• Minimizes the appearance of visible pores

How coooooool is that?

How to use Clarisonic Mia 2 

The T-Timer® will pulse when it's time to cleanse the next area of your face.

Clarisonic Mia 2 comes in different colors.

The Clarisonic Mia 2 Kit also includes 1 oz. trial size cleanser. This cleanser is excellent too! Actually, the best cleanser I have ever used so far! How I wish this cleanser comes in bigger size. Hehe...

After the Clarisonic cleanser runs out, you can use your favorite facial cleanser.

Know what? Ever since I used it, I must admit, many are noticing the improvement of my skin and even asking what I'm using on my face!

One day, hubby and I were chatting...

Me: Ve...
Me: I think, I'm beautiful. Agree?

Of course, you know already how a loving husband responds. LOL! The point is, whenever we're chatting, I'm always telling him that I feel so ugly... that I already have wrinkles... that I'm already aging... yada yada... I told you, lakas maka-GGSS ng Clarisonic Mia! I am now more confident. And that is important for us women!

How much is the Clarisonic Mia 2? Wait, I'll get my credit card billing statement. Haha.

Mga iha, I think the 7,267.64 is already converted to peso. So, that's the price. From Clarisonic.com, it costs USD 159.00. Expensivo but it's totally worth it! It changed my life, di ba?! And, listen listen, Clarisonic® Sonic Skin Cleansing System is also being used by some Hollywood stars!

Where to buy Clarisonic Mia 2?

Unfortunately, Clarisonic Mia 2 is not yet available here in the Philippines. But when you try to google it, you can find a lot of sellers via Multiply.com. I just couldn't recommend any one as I don't have any experience buying from any one of them.

But I've found out that the first release of Clarisonic Mia is available at Taste Central. It's now on sale from P 7,950.00 down to P 6,900.00. You may want to check it out.

The difference between Mia and Mia 2 is that the first version is one-speed only. Unlike Mia 2 which features two speeds. 

I've bought mine in Hongkong at Joyce Beauty Outlet, G106 Gateway Arcade, Harbour City, Tsim Sha Tsui. 

I have one regret, though. I should have bought the Clarisonic PLUS Sonic Skin Cleansing System instead! It features three speeds for the face and a body mode for cleansing areas of the body needing extra care and attention. (Tamang-tama kasi tamad din ako mag- body scrub! Saan na lang ako hindi tinatamad? Haha!) But the price, oh boy, oh boy!!! If the Clarisonic Mia 2 for the face is already costly, how much more the Clarisonic PLUS for face and body? Anyway, I'm still ssooo happy with my Clarisonic Mia 2.

O sya mga girlalu, pag-ipunan na yan!!!
