COMPARISON: clarisonic vs. Olay contouring brush system

Ever since I got into skin care, I wanted a clarisonic, but due to its pricey price tag I was never able to afford it until recently. Before the clarisonic, I liked to use the Olay fresh effects contouring system and so I'd like to get this review out so I can help save anyone a few bucks. I will say, I do like both of these face brushes and it really comes down to what kind of skin type you have!

OLAY FRESH EFFECTS CONTOURING SYSTEM: 


So I first purchased this back in august and I used it for about 3 months straight, so I am able to really testify for this. I switched between using is every morning and night, but without fail I always used it at least once a day. So this tool is really nice because of its convenience! The brush head is shaped as a triangle so you can really get into the contours of your face, which is really nice! The bristles are a soft rubbery texture (soft enough for my sensitive skin) which really helps lather up your skin. It really gets the job done and makes your face feel squeaky clean!

CLARISONIC: 



The clarisonic is a little bigger and is about the size of a face wash(?). The brush head is a little bigger and can't fit into the corners of your face, but of you take the brush off and push the center of the brush a smaller brush comes out that can really fit into the corners of your face. To use this, you just put your cleanser on the brush and press the button and the clarisonoc pulses for a minute. After a minute, it turns off by itself. This really makes your face feel clean and fresh and really lets your next products sink in. Also, the clarisonic allows you to change your brush head and you can pick your brush head depending on your skin type.

OVERALL: 

I feel that the clarisonic is the better option, but the Olay brush is better than nothing. If you have nice skin that doesn't need a lot of maintaining, then I'd just stick with the Olay brush to save money. The olay brush is more convenient, but the clarisonic had a lot more tools and settings to really costumize it to get it to match your skin. I'd definately recommend both, but the clarisonic wins by far!
