I love my FOREO Luna’s ~ Since the first model that I received several years ago and wondered what the heck was it, then used it and haven’t looked back since then for a cleansing device. I own several of them now, including the Luna 3. After a long wait, I can now finally release my review on the Luna 3 Plus ~ it was available in the European Market for a bit, when I received mine but not yet…
I love my FOREO Luna Mini’s and now I finally get the chance to try out a couple of the full size Luna’s! I received Luna 3 for Sensitive Skin and Luna 3 for Men, complementary from FOREO in exchange for a review. See all of my FOREO (FOR-RAY-OH) reviews here

As many of you know, I stan FOREO! Several years ago, I received the FOREA Luna Mini from Rakuten Affiliate Network and I have never looked back. I love my Luna Mini and I use it daily.

Hey there! Today I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the Clarisonic Mia 2 Facial Sonic Cleansing Brush. This is a sponsored post in partnership with Clarisonic and Her Campus Media, but all words and opinions are my own!
Because of my membership in the Her Campus InfluenceHer Collective, I was given the opportunity to test out the new Clarisonic Mia 2 device. After using it for the past month, I can say in all honesty that it’s pretty amazing. I had always wanted to try a Clarisonic device, as I have struggled with skincare issues since early high school, and it definitely did not disappoint. Read on to hear all about my experience with the Clarisonic Deep Pore Mia 2 kit and find out how you can get 15% your purchase!
THE BASICS:
Clarisonic invented sonic skin cleansing in 2004 and has since sold over 15 million devices. Available in over 50 countries around the world, Clarisonic’s mission is to beautifully transform skin. Their devices are the #1 dermatologist-recommended skin cleansing devices in the US, as they cleanse skin 6x better than hands alone and are gentle enough for twice-a-day use. You can find Clarisonic products at many dermatologist offices, spas, respected retailers and online at Clarisonic.com.
The Clarisonic Mia 2 Sonic Cleansing Device features two speeds (delicate and universal) suitable for all skin types. It is waterproof, so you can use it in the shower or bath, and is uniquely designed to fit a variety of interchangeable facial brush heads. With a timer that quickly pulses to indicate when it’s time to move to another part of your face, you can have cleaner, softer, smoother skin in just 60 seconds a day.
WHAT COMES IN THE BOX:
The Clarisonic Deep Pore Mia 2 set includes a Mia 2 device, a Deep Pore Brush Head, protective travel case, Mia 2 user guide, Deep Pore Daily Cleanser, Deep Pore Detoxifying Clay Mask and charger.
The inside of the box features a description of the device and products inside, the instructions for the two-step cleansing solution for enlarged pores and oily skin, and an illustration of how the Deep Pore system refines the size of your pores.
The first thing you pull out of the box is the Mia 2 user guide. This is a manual that includes all of the specific instructions and guidelines for properly using the Mia 2 device. It discusses the features of the device, how to charge it, how to care for it, and important safeguards to keep in mind when using the device.
The next item is the protective travel case that the Mia 2 device comes in. I like storing my device in this case once it’s dry even at home to protect it from germs. It’s super convenient and awesome to take on the go too!
Inside is the device itself, which comes with a plastic cap to further protect the bristles. Since this is the Deep Pore kit, the device comes with a Deep Pore Brush Head attached. Recommended for all skin types with enlarged pores, the Clarisonic Deep Pore Brush Head is designed with graduated dual-action bristles to rid clogged pores of oil and debris.
The first product that comes in this kit is the Deep Pore Daily Cleanser. This cleanser is designed to help control oil and refine large pores. It is sulfate- and paraben-free and contains Fruit Acid Trio which chemically exfoliates and loosens pore-clogging dead skin cells.
The second product is the Deep Pore Detoxifying Clay Mask. This has natural botanical ingredients combined with kaolin and bentonite clays to gently remove impurities from pores and reveal smoother, softer looking skin. It includes 2% hydroxy acids to help remove dead skin cells and detoxify pores.
The last thing in the box is a charger. The Clarisonic Mia and Mia 2 devices are rechargeable with the Universal Voltage Charger, which magnetically attaches to the handle. Once the device is fully charged, it is good for 24 minutes of use (or 12 days if you use it twice a day) .
HOW YOU USE IT:
To use the device, first remove any eye makeup and lipstick by hand. I like to remove all of my face makeup using a makeup wipe to keep the brush cleaner. Then wet your skin and the brush with warm water. I make sure to really soak the brush then shake out any excess water so it won’t drip from the device during cleansing.
Next, liberally apply the Deep Pore Daily Cleanser (or any cleanser) to the brush head. You can also apply cleanser to your skin first then use the brush to work in, but I like to apply it directly to the brush.
Then push the On/Off button and select the speed you want to use. I usually go for the low or delicate speed because my skin can be a little sensitive. The brush uses a one-minute T-timer that pauses momentarily to tell you when to move to another part of the face. I love this feature, as it allows me to thoroughly cleanse my whole face. It’s set to indicate 20 seconds on your chin/nose, 20 seconds on your forehead, and 10 seconds on each cheek. You can also pause the cycle if need be.
The Detoxifying Mask is intended to be used twice weekly. You apply a thin layer to damp skin, let dry for 10-15 minutes, then use the device to remove. The brush head helps to loosen dead skin cells and decongest pores. I really like the tingling clean feeling it gives while it’s drying and how smooth my skin feels after!
RESULTS:
The results I’ve experienced after using the device pretty consistently for the past month have been great. My skin feels and looks smoother. I’ve noticed a decrease in the size of the pores around my nose as well. I’ve always had huge pores in that area and to see them getting smaller is really promising! The products have not completely quelled my breakouts, but I’ve struggled with acne for a while and have found a Benzol Peroxide wash is the only thing that can minimize my pimples. I did start using one of my Benzol Peroxide cleansers with the device and it definitely enhances its effectiveness.
I would highly recommend the Mia 2 to anyone who has been looking for the secret to their skin troubles. While Clarisonic devices are on the pricier side, they are well-worth the investment in my opinion. The Mia 2 is actually one of their least expensive devices, and you can use the code HERCAMPUS now through November 20 to get 15% off your purchase!
Also, once you buy the device, you will only need to replenish the brush heads and products as needed. The Deep Pore Daily Cleanser is 177ml and is sure to last a long time, and as long as you take care of your brush head you won’t need to purchase a new one for 3 months.
With the holidays coming up, this is the perfect gift for yourself or anyone you know who loves skincare!
I hope you enjoyed my review of the Clarisonic Mia 2! Thank you so much to Clarisonic and Her Campus for gifting me with this amazing set!
We previously raved about the Sensio Spa Cleanser and the Luna Mini, but our most recent fascination is with the Clarisonic Mia Fit cleansing brush. Clarisonic is well known for their skin cleansing brushes, and the Mia Fit is especially interesting. Perfect for travel, the Mia Fit is compact in size and fits in the palm of your hand. It’s also waterproof, so you can use it in the shower when you’re crunched for time.
