Does This Work? Clarisonic Sonic Foundation Brush Head

Y'all--let's chat and get caught up! I didn't mean to take a mini-break from the blog, but life happens. Rather, my tire blew up coming home from visiting my family. Two new tires later, I'm finally back to my love of blogging. Whew.

So what's on the menu for today? It's Review Day, Tuesday, y'all! And up for today is the new Sonic Foundation Brush from Clarisonic I was sent. This has been on my radar to try, so after lots of experimenting, I'm happy to report back my results. I was so skeptical of this--would this really work? But I ended up being very surprised.

First off, this is a brush head--it's an attachment that goes on any Clarisonic. I didn't want you to think that you had to buy the whole kit and caboodle! You can tell how different it is from a regular Clarisonic brush head, as pictured in the background. And it is soft--not harsh on the face.

The Clarisonic Makeup Brush utilizes patented oscillation technology to generate more than 18,000 micro-blends per minute. The makeup brush gently provides a flawless, full foundation coverage look in 60 seconds or less. You can use it to blend any cream or liquid foundation (that includes stick foundation), bb/cc cream, concealer, blush, color correctors, highlight, or contour. Do not use this with powder products.

Equipped with anti-microbial and non-porous bristles, it is easy to clean and ensures minimal absorption so you use less foundation. Great for all skin types.

Before shot time, y'all! For this demo, I used Armani foundation for dry skin--this has a medium coverage. I used concealer, highlight, contour, and blush on the left (your left) side of my face. You simply dot the products on and then blend with the brush. I tested this putting everything on at once, but it worked best to blend in the same order as I normally would apply makeup.

Can you tell the difference? Now for the right side of my face, I decided to use a beautyblender for pictures. I tested this out with brushes and my fingers as well.

Hopefully you can see, the Clarisonic Sonic Foundation brush head gave me a fuller coverage. I know I'm super critical of myself, but I can still see my freckles shining through on the right. I felt the finish was similar for both.

Here's what I liked: one brush for everything. I think of my friends who are super low-maintenance when it comes to makeup--they'd love this. I truly was able to use this to blend my products in my regular routine. I think at $35, it's not a bad price because it would prevent you from having to buy additional brushes for the face.

If you already have a Clarisonic, just get this added on. It would be great for travel.

I love the finish of this--I find it comparable to a beautyblender--a flawless finish that is never cakey. I recommend it, if it fits the criteria for you. Order here or find in stores where it's sold.

However, I did not like this to blend out my concealer. It's a personal preference though. I didn't want this tugging at the skin under my eyes. I don't like how you'd have to buy the unit and this brush head to be able to use it. But overall, I was very pleased!

Have you heard of this or tried it? Would you?
