Yes! I have used the Shiseido manual brush, the Olay battery operated, and the rechargeable Clarisonic. In my opinion, the Clarisonic is by far the best. My face is so smooth and soft after using it - like it's been polished. I am 52 years old with combination, sometimes sensitive skin, and the Clarisonic has been absolutely wonderful! I love it! It's also small and light enough to take on my frequent travels.

I am an esthetician and at first I was a little skeptical of the Clarisonic. There are so many products and "toys" out on the market that do not really work. After looking into the Clarisonic I realized that what makes this product different from the Olay version is the "sonic" technology ( (sound waves). The Sonicare toothbrush works in the same way. I have a machine in my treatment room that also uses sonic technology (not in a brush form like this though). Sonic technology works by using sound waves to gently vibrate debris, oils, make-up up and out of the skin so that it can be effectively cleansed. The Carisonic brush also gently exfoliates the skin from the rotation of the brushes. So you are deep cleaning & exfoliating at the same time. I have seen a major difference in the skin of clients that use a Clarisonic on a daily basis. As far as I can tell the Olay version is just a rotating brush that does not have the sonic technology. So I'm sure the Olay version does an okay job at exfoliating the skin but it does not deep clean like the Clarisonic. I highly recommend this product! I don't sell these or make any sort of profit when I recommend these. I just think they are really awesome!

If you go to the Good Morning America website Beck Worley did a review which compared the two of them. That is how I decided to go with the Clarisonic.

In my opinion the Clarisonic is more "heavy duty", more professional and better made. Worth the extra bucks.

I have sensitive skin, and the Mia does not irritate my skin when I use the cleaning brush for sensitive skin. It also keeps my skin from breaking out!

I don't have oily skin but my skin is sensitive and acne prone and it works fine for me. I use only once a day though because otherwise it chaffs me.

Yes, this has the international voltage and works with anything from 100-250 volts.

Yes, the Mia is compatible with 100-240 Volts AC; 50/60 Hz. It can be used worldwide with the appropriate country adapter.

Yes. I had to return my Clarisonic Mia to the Clarisonic company within their 90-day policy, and they confirmed that I could do so because Skinstore was an authorized dealer.

It only has one speed. I have it and love it. It is just the right size. I didn't want a large one.

I would suggest that you call the manufacturer directly. I understand that they are very helpful and stand behind their products.
