Ascending Butterfly's Annual Mother's Day Buying Guide Giveaway, brought to you by:

The newest weapon in my beauty arsenal is the Clarisonic Skin Care Brush! I am as skeptical as most when I read about a product yielding 'instant results', and since I have acne prone skin, I was actually a bit fearful this would exacerbate oil production and make my skin oilier.

I was genuinely amazed with Clarisonic after my very FIRST use. I found my skin felt cleaner than ever. That level of clean that you feel after a fancy spa facial, where they steamed your skin, exfoliated it, massaged it and you lay down in a zen room with a facial mask on....

I am still a natural skeptic, so I decided to give it the 'toner test'. I have a favorite toner that I use as a second step after cleansing my face. That toner manages to find gunk that I didn't know was there, and the cottonball never lies. After using my Clarisonic the very FIRST time, I decided to wait a bit, and then use my toner. The cottonball was spotless, my skin was deep down clean. And felt amazing.

I have used it twice a day for 2 weeks now, and the level of clarity in my skin, the even-texture and tone, the brightness and luminosity from within is very much noticeable. I require much less moisturizer and toner and have not experienced one breakout since using it. I'm actually amazed by the transformation I have experienced with my skin since using my Clarisonic.

Clarisonic Skin Care Brush

Clarisonic Clarisonic CLASSIC White Skin Care Brush
From: b-glowing

Ladies what Sonicare did for the toothbrush, Clarisonic does for the skin! It leaves your face feeling smooth, soft, almost polished. Your makeup will go on more evenly, and it is safe for even sensitive skin!

B-Glowing sells more than just Clarisonic Products, they are literally a one stop beauty shop, that also sells those hard to find products that are not always available in your neighborhood!

Clarisonic Deets:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - The sonic frequency moves Clarisonic's soft, gentle brush back and forth at more than 300 times per second, thoroughly clearing pores and skin surface.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Removes makeup six times better than traditional methods.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Clears pores and reduces the appearance of pore size.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -  Cleanses so thoroughly that skincare products absorb better.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Creates noticeably healthier looking skin.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Ideal for all skin types and used and recommended by leading dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Gentle enough to use for cleansing rosacea and sebborheic dermatitis.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - The Classic comes with a 2 year warranty! 

My Take

I love b-glowing, when I truly want to indulge - be it my skincare or haircare, they have everything I love to use regularly, and I can certainly lose track of time doing some virtual window shopping from some of the most sought after cosmetic brands in the industry! They feature Globally Conscious Products, and just like shopping in store many of their brands offer a complimentary gift with purchase. All orders receive 3 free samples in their signature organza bag with a thank you card and free shipping on purchases over $75. You can get the department store perks, while shopping in the comfort of your own home, how entirely awesome is that?

Only bad thing ladies, is you could actually lose track of time looking through all the goodies they sell! (Much like in the Department Store!)

You didn't think I'd forget about you right? Who loves you butterfly?
