The brand is skincare called Opulus.  I guess we'll find out more tonight.

@Caaareful Shopper   Most likely not buying, but might take a curiosity look, so thanks for posting.

 

I still have the first Clarisonic I bought so long ago - that one is the combo for face and body.  I use a mini which is somewhat newer more often though, although I don't use either on my face every day.  Age has its own way of telling me how often far better than a remote scientist or some beauty influencer!

@millieshops   for a while, that Clarisonic truly had a hold on me!  Then one day I just stopped using it.  I realized the brushes were actually what was making my skin so sensitive.  I was probably more a problem of me using it too often, but I stopped completely anyway.  

 

I don't use too much skincare at all (61, no wrinkles to speak of....yet), but interested as well.

Never got into Clarisonic.  I still use the Olay spin brush in the shower.  I remember when I was a teenager there was a palm-sized device with a brush on it that I loved.  I had acne and really felt it got my skin clean.  But, technology being what it was, it was not totally waterproof, so had to be careful with getting it wet and certainly couldn't use it in the shower. 

 

I don't know what happened to that thing, but as I got older I still liked a brush.  I finally found a wooden handled brush I liked and used until the bristles started falling out of it.  Then, I was unable to find a facial brush that I liked.  They were either too soft or too scratchy.  I tried a vibrating one kinda like Clarisonic once and didn't like it at all.  

 

I do have a dupe of those Foreo silicone cleansers, but no longer use it since I use my spin brush in the shower and the cleanser I use at the sink is either an oil or a cleansing balm which becomes and oil and those don't play well with silicone.

I still use and like the Pop Sonic.  No no spinning or bristles but it does have different intensities of vibration and the charge lasts a long long time.

 

Did anyone ever use a Buff Puff? Smiley Surprised  Yeow!  It didn't seem to cause any permanent damage to my skin.  Maybe I didn't use it long enough but mom says it's what caused her to have rosacea.

I just googled it.  It's skincare that after a quick look, appears to be different components you can mix together in that "blender".  I better not watch because I'm always looking for the next good thing and I'm 3 brands behind right now.  🙂

I still have my Clarisonic and it still works, like using it every once in a while, should probably use it more often. If I am awake, I will check out Dr. Robb-always liked him..

Whatever happened to Clarisonic? Bankrupt? It was such a rage then nothing

 

I had the original model. Worked for a long time then kaput. Weird feeling throwing a $200 tool in the garbage 

 

We need another skin care line like...you know the saying
