Back in the beginning of August, I let out a SQUEE comparable to a teenage girl. I had been chosen for a campaign with Clarisonic through Type A Parent. I have been eyeing these babies for some time, but could never quite justify the price tag. What if I hated it? What if it didn’t work for me?
Over the last year or so, I’ve though about making the purchase more and more. Every time I see the section in ULTA or Sephora, I linger just a bit longer each time.
And now I have one! I’m still getting used to it and figuring out what works for my skin type (more on that next month!) but so far, so good.
Better yet, I’m not getting to this alone. Jason (the lucky dog) was sent an Alpha Fit device. The Alpha Fit is designed specifically to clean men’s thicker, oilier skin. Their patented sonic cleansing technology oscillates at a frequency that produces over 300 movements per second. The flexing action works to loosen dirt and oil, removing impurities from pores and prepping skin for a closer, smoother shave.
Let’s be honest. He didn’t ask for this. I’m not sure he’s ever spared a thought over his skin care routine.In fact, when I told him about it he didn’t really want to try it, figuring it would be pointless as “I haven’t washed my face in years”. It’s true. He just rinses. He might use my Cetaphil or a facial cloth once in a blue moon, but seriously, it’s rare.
So I challenged him. Use the Alpha Fit for a few weeks and tell me what you think.
Guess what?
He’s a convert. (And yes, I totally forced him to take this picture.) To quote him – “I actually really like it. It’s like my Sonicare Tooth Brush but for my face.”
He said his face feels less greasy and he can tell a difference in the pores around his nose and cheeks. Plus, he loves that it’s quick (60 seconds!) so he can use it in the shower.
“It may be the caffeine-infused face wash, but I feel refreshed and awake after I get out of the shower!”
Need a better idea on how to use the Active Fit? Here’s a quick video.
There have been over 10 million Clarisonic devices sold around the world, which certainly tells you something. People LOVE them and that now includes both Lanes. It’s also designed, innovated and assembled in the USA. TOTAL BONUS!
