"There is a general feeling around here that the Clarisonic is one of the best beauty splurges out there--yet some of you, understandably, are still not willing/able to shell out approximately two hundo for a face-cleansing device (no matter how fancy). But what about Clarisonic&amp;#x27;s about-50-bucks-cheaper baby sister, which I bet you&amp;#x27;ll be seeing everywhere this spring? I&amp;#x27;m referring to the Clarisonic Mia (which happens to share my daughter&amp;#x27;s name, thus endearing itself to me from the getgo). It generally retails between $125 and $150 and is designed to be a smaller, more travel-friendly sonic face-cleansing brush (although I find my regular-sized Clarisonic perfectly fine for travel and don&amp;#x27;t really get how this one saves you all that much space). The other differences between the Mia and the original Clarisonic are that it has only one speed, and there are no beeps to tell you how much time to spend on each zone of the face--each session lasts a minute, and you have to mentally count for yourself when it comes to dividing the time among forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. But it&amp;#x27;s pretty easy to get into a rhythm where you just sort of know when to move the brush along. To be honest, though, I think the biggest selling point of the Mia is its cuteness. It&amp;#x27;s the perfect size, and instead of a charging stand, it has a cool minimalist charger that you stick onto its handle magnetically. Scroll through this shopping box to see some of the adorable colors and patterns (leopard!) the Mia comes in this spring. (I have a peach-colored one that&amp;#x27;s being sold exclusively at Nordstrom). More clarisonic... Does the Clarisonic Mia intrigue you, or is it still too pricey? Which color would you get if you bought one? Or would you just as soon shell out for the full-size, original Clarisonic? What&amp;#x27;s With All the Spam in the Comments Section?
