Clarisonic brush - Delicate or Sensitive ?

I'm fairly certain my Mia came with the Sensitive and I like it well enough. But I'm wondering if the Delicate wouldn't be more appropriate for my very sensitive, dry skin. Looking at the comparison on Clarisonic's site it looks like it should be. I know there was a discussion about this a long time ago and I thought posters said the Sensitive was actually more gentle.

Anyone use the two and can compare?

Thanks.

I prefer the sensitive, but I don't have particularly sensitive skin. It is dry for sure. I didn't feel the delicate really cleaned my skin as well, and it also didn't last as long.

Thanks Linda, that's helpful. I'm just going to order the sensitive brush, I wasn't sure I wanted to take a chance on the delicate and end up exchanging it.

I've used both and the delicate is definitely softer and gentler. The bristles on the sensitive brush are a bit stiffer. That said, even the delicate brush with no pressure ended up causing broken capillaries for me. I'm now using the Foreo Luna Mini and am much happier with it. Absolutely zero irritation and no replacement brush heads to buy.

I have very sensitive skin and have used the sensitive brush head. Now I'm really liking the newest brush head: Cashmere cleanse. It's so soft and feels great on my face.

The acne brush head is also a nice choice. Much softer than sensitive, which feels pretty stiff on my face.
