Clarisonic Sonic Foundation Brush Review

When it comes to applying foundation, I aim for the most flawless finish possible and over the years I’ve transitioned from old-school drugstore sponges and classic flat brushes to duo-fiber stippling, the kabuki, oval buffers and Beauty Blenders. These techniques are good but Clarisonic has recently created something truly innovative! The new Foundation Brush harnesses the power of sonic technology to effortlessly blend creams and liquid. Now you can treat yourself to a professional makeup session from the comfort of home by transforming your beloved Mia Fit into the ultimate beauty tool.

With more than 18,000 mico-blends per minute, the brush provides seamless coverage in 60 seconds or less doing all the work for you! Say goodbye to sore arms and hello to airbrushed results as it buffs and blends to visibly smooth skin texture, blur lines, cover discoloration and conceal blemishes. Switching to the highest setting (speed 2) increases coverage and you can also use it to apply contour, cream blush and highlighter.

The Brush is suitable for all skin types and the non-porous, antibacterial bristles are easy to clean. There is also minimal product absorption and the vibrations feel like a mini-massage for the face - stimulating circulation while seamlessly depositing product. I start off by dabbing foundation onto my skin and lightly buffing in circular motions. The long, thin fibers create a light, even veil of makeup that looks very natural without caking, creasing or streaking.

Because the coverage is quite soft, I usually apply my foundation in layers and use another brush to touch-up areas that require more concealer. Since the vibrations create the same sensation as exfoliating or cleansing, the lowest setting works best for me and I refrain from using it on a daily basis to prevent sensitivity. If you thought the Mia Fit was perfect for travel before, it just got even better!

I love the idea of having one device that can apply makeup and remove it! The Sonic Brush Head retails for $39.00 and the Mia Fit (which you can read more about by clicking HERE) retails for $269.00. Clarisonic is available at Shoppers Drug Mart, Sephora, Hudson’s Bay, Nordstrom, Saks and clarisonic.ca.
