Clarisonic TSV?

Two Hearts — Sat, 31 Jan 2015 18:08:19 GMT

What are your thoughts on the Clarisonic SMART TSV? Do we need to upgrade our old ones since this is new technology? Cleans 11 percent better than the original ??

11%? Firstly, that's not much and also, how exactly is that measured? Sounds like a marketing ploy, IMO.

I think they've flooded the market and now have to bring in something sort of improved. What's with the foot attachment? Didn't they sell a device for feet as a TSV not too long ago?

Let me first state that I don't own a Clarisonic, and trying to find out if it's worth spending $250 + S&H + tax for someone who doesn't have problem skin any longer. Secondly, as QVC was pushing these in a different model during the holiday season, I would be more than a little mad if I had purchased or received one as a gift, and just a month after Christmas, they come out with a brand new model that combines all the other models that they have sold previously. The hosts then have the audacity to tell viewers to give away to other family members/friends (after purchasing new brushes, of course) or donate the model that they have now, and purchase this one. I have been around long enough to realize that this is a sales tactic. I have been looking online, but can find nothing from dermatologists that says these are really necessary for clean skin. I also don't understand why the brushes have to be replaced every 3 months, at approximately $30 a pop. Really not sold on this product.

I tried it, a $99 TSV model. It was last year with the extended return policy. I used it 3 months and saw no improvement whatsoever. I would not fork over $250 for this model. I'd wait for a cheaper one. If you are already using good cleansers I see no need for it. For the price of a brush head alone you can buy a bottle of purity or take off the day.

What they said was it is "11 times (11x) better, not 11%. Also, I'm sure the TSV being on the last day they will take holiday gifts back was well planned. They don't want all those Mia's back from people upgrading. Smart business move -- lousy customer service. I'm sure they plan WELL ahead for TSVs and probably wanted to move out stock of the old models.

The continual marketing hype of this product on QVC is beyond nuts. My dermatologist actually tells her patients NOT to use Clarisonic or any tool like it because of all the problems she has seen on patients' faces who have used it (both short- and long-term) and have come to her for help after the fact.

I love mine, but I use mine a few times a week, not everyday. I alternate use with a Missha brush. and You can find clones on Amazon. They are super, super soft and do a wonderful job at cleaning your skin with mild exfoliation.

I would get it if I didn't already own two. I have an old Mia that still works like new, and my daughter gave me her three year old full size model. I think it works better than the Mia. I just bought the body brush today, so I'll be trying it for the first time. I love the long bristled soft brush the best for the face. They make one for the body, but I got the regular, exfoliating brush today. It's a me-time spa-like experience to me.

I've owned my Mia for a couple of years and love it. I've been tempted to get the full size in the past but resisted. That being said I'm getting the TSV today, and I get the replacement brushes from other sites and never pay full price , and typically get at least 20% off their regular price with free shipping.

Good for you! Please review once you get it. I'm curious about the pedi and products too.

Tigriss — Sun, 01 Feb 2015 00:25:49 GMT

All this brush does is let you use their different brushes on one model. They tell you the body brush won't fit on the MIA, when it does. I did it at the counter and had the girl go into hissies because she said it didn't fit but it did and then told me that it doesn't vibrate right, which I have the full size and it felt the same. They now recognize that people want to use the various heads on the same body that all does the same without purchasing 3 different bodies as $100+ a pop!

Hopefully, they now realize what people really want. A model that serves all the tools that they offer.

I do have a clarasonic and I have never seen any difference in my skin either. That being said I don't understand how this improved device is going to be any better. I might also add I always hear them talk about how they will use the clarisonic after using a wash cloth and the brush has alot of make-up on it. I did the opposite. I used a washcloth after using the clarisonic and I there was make-up on the cloth that the clarisonic didn't get off (?)

That being said, there is no way that I would purchase this even if it were 99.00.
