Clarisonic

Customize Your Sonic Clean

May 2, 2014 By patkaspian

 Bonjour, Mes Amis!

If you’ve been into A French Touch lately, I know you’ve heard all about the fabulous cleansing technology in our Clarisonic Brushes (or better yet, experienced it in one of our facials!).  However, we want to help you maintain that post-facial deep-clean feel by taking one of these handy little brushes home with you, and want to emphasize that these brushes are a great way to tailor your skin care routine directly to your skin type and your skin care needs.  Though all of these brushes produce visible positive results, we can’t emphasize enough how important it is to choose the one that’s right for you!  So, which of our three Clarisonic Brushes is best for your skin type?  Check it out!

mia firstThe Mia is perfect for normal skin types, or skin with “an even tone and texture, and is naturally moisturized without looking too dry or oily.”  The Mia brush is the simplest option for you, with one speed and changeable brush head options suited to your specific skincare needs.  This is a great starter brush for young teens to help them get into a healthy skin routine early on!  However, more sensitive skin would better benefit from…

mia 2.0The Mia 2 is a more advanced version of the Mia that uses the same amazing clarisonic technology, but includes two different speed options for a gentler clean.  This brush is recommended for Normal, Dry, Sensitive, or Aging skin, and also comes with the customizable brush head option, so you can be sure to select the perfect clean for you skin care needs.

ariaThe Aria is our favorite Clarisonic Brush, because it works beautifully with all skin types and comes with not one, not two, but three different speeds for a delicate, a universal, or a deep cleanse (talk about a customized clean!).  Depending on your skin type–whether you have sensitive skin or stubborn acne–we come up with the best cleansing routine and pair it with one of Clarisonic’s Brush heads to guarantee healthy, glowing skin!

Clarisonic’s Brushes are easy to use, easy to clean, and even easier to fall in love with.  Stop by and experience the Aria in one of our facials, or talk to Patricia or Lindsay to get an expert recommendation!  À bientôt!

Bisous,

A Sonic Clean for your Skin

March 5, 2014 By patkaspian

Bonjour, Mes Amis!

Looking for the best way to give your skin that post-facial, deeply-cleansed feeling every day?  The best way to beautiful skin is a ‘clean’ start (pun intended!), and we’ve got the #1 cleansing brush recommended by dermatologists, estheticians and spa professionals, to transform your skin, one pore at a time.

Clarisonic Brushes use advanced sonic technology to provide you with a clean that is 6 times more thorough than cleansing with hands alone. Cleansing with Clarisonic clears oil, perspiration, debris, makeup, and environmental pollutants out of your pores.  

The secret is described best by Clarisonic themselves:

“Unlike spinning devices, our patented sonic cleansing technology works with skin’s natural elasticity, oscillating at a sonic frequency that produces over 300 movements per second. The resulting flexing action created between the outer and inner brushes works to loosen dirt and oil, removing deep-seated impurities from pores and priming skin to better absorb topical treatments.”

This approach to cleansing will not only give your pores a chance to breathe, but will also improve the look and feel of skin that suffers from:

  • Fine Lines & Wrinkles
  • Enlarged Pores & Excess Oil
  • Rough Surface, Uneven Texture
  • Dullness, Lack of Radiance
  • Acne-Prone, Frequent Blemishes
  • Loss of Firmness & Elasticity

A French Touch offers 3 different Clarisonic Brushes, along with several different brush head attachment options, so you can take home that same clean you love in our facials!  Also, this month all of our Clarisonic Brushes come with a FREE Jan Marini Age Intervention Cleanser to help you maintain that radiant, youthful glow.

miaThe Mia 1 ($99) is a great starter brush in the Clarisonic series.  It comes with one speed (and in lots of cute colors!), and includes the Sensitive Brush Head for a gentle cleanse.  The Mia is easy to use, quick to charge, and can switch between all of the Brush Head options, so you can find your favorite!  The Mia also comes with a 1 year warranty.

mia 2The Mia 2 ($149) is the perfect travel brush, and comes with a convenient travel case, the interchangeable heads option, and not one but two speeds (delicate and universal) so you can customize your clean.  This brush also includes a 1-Minute Pulsing T-Timer that pulses momentarily to indicate it is time to move to another part of your face.  The Mia 2 comes with a 2 year warranty.

ariaThe Aria (Mia 3) ($199) is the most versatile Clarisonic Brush, and comes with three speeds–delicate, universal, and powerful, to offer even more options for that just-out-of-a-facial clean feeling–in addition to all of the perks of Mia and Mia 2.  The Aria also comes with a drying stand, USB-Enabled Universal Voltage pLink Charger and a 3 year warranty. 

The sonic powered clean is our favorite way to kick off a facial, and an excellent way to intensify the results of your skin care routine by clearing out your pores and refreshing your skin before applying products.  Try one with us today!

Bisous,

Achieve radiant skin with the Clarisonic Mia Skin Cleansing System

November 8, 2012 By patkaspian

Are you really cleansing every night, or are you leaving bits of dirt, oil, and makeup on your delicate skin? Now you can be sure with the Clarisonic Mia cleansing brush, available at A French Touch Salon to uncover the radiance of your skin!

Clarisonic Mia

While cleansing is the first step in any skin care ritual, it is often overlooked.  Typical manual cleansing can leave behind dirt and oil trapped in pores. This build-up can damage the appearance and health of your skin and keep your skin care products from working like they should.

Used and recommended by spas and dermatologists, Clarisonic Sonic Skin Cleansing Systems use a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to gently, yet thoroughly remove 6X more makeup and 2X more dirt and oil than cleansing with your hands alone. Cleaner skin is the first step toward healthier skin. And healthier skin is smoother, more radiant and more beautiful. The one-button, one-speed Mia comes in a variety of colors and fits your active lifestyle – offering beautiful skin at home or on-the-go.
