Watch the Years Melt Away! Clarisonic® Unveils the Next Wave in Sonic Skin Care, Highly Recommended by Whom You Know, Buy the Opal, Infuse with Peachy!

We think it is so important to holistically take care of yourself: eat well, sleep well, manage your stress, exercise and of course, take care of your skin!  One of the most sensitive areas of skin on our bodies is the area near our eyes, and Clarisonic is to our rescue again!  Last summer we fell in love with their original product, the Clarisonic sonic cleaning system:

The sonic cleaning is an absolute dream, and now that we've been using this for over 6 months we are pleased to say we love it still. Peachy Deegan was so excited when she heard that a second product was out on the market!  To help in the endless quest for healthy, youthful looking skin, Clarisonic, the innovator behind sonic skin care, introduces Opal Sonic Infusion.  


Opal combines sonic micro-massage with a proprietary Anti-Aging Serum for immediately noticeable and long-lasting reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  We have been trying this for several days now and are so pleased.  The penetration of the skin is genius and we hope this keeps everyone still asking if we are still in school (at Peachy's age this is a complement-she was mistaken for a student yesterday at the Javits center vision expo.)

Clarisonic launched sonic skin cleansing several years ago to skin care professionals.  Clarisonic skin cleansing products have become increasingly popular due to their effectiveness at clearing pores, removing 6 times more makeup and increasing absorption of Vitamin C up to 61%.   You don't have to be a professional to have professional looking skin now!

Opal is the second major product in the Clarisonic skin care family. Building on the benefits of the sonic skin cleansing system, Opal extends Clarisonic products from sonic cleansing to sonic infusion. According to Robb Akridge, PhD, Clarisonic’s Vice President of Clinical Affairs, “Opal’s soothing, gentle vibrations infuse Anti-Aging Serum into the outermost layers of the epidermis where it begins to work immediately. In our clinical studies most women reported seeing an immediate reduction in fine lines and wrinkles and firmer, brighter, more hydrated skin in just one minute.  The results typically last for hours and benefits improve over time.” 

Application is quick, gentle and involves three easy steps.  First, Peachy charged the Opal for 24 hours.  It is so easy to do; you just match up the lines on the magnetic base.  Simply charge Opal, dispense its serum that contains a hand selected blend of marine and botanical extracts, and infuse your skin by moving the device in a circular motion around the bone of the eye.  It takes just one minute for each eye-quick and easy!  It has proven immediate and long-lasting results, including a decrease in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as invigorated, soothed and firmed skin.  

Designed to be used twice a day, the Opal Sonic Infusion System delivers optimum results if applied after Clarisonic® cleansing.  You just fill the cap with the serum, as shown: 

And you massage the eye area indicated in the diagram directions, then repeat for the other eye.  The Opal Sonic Infusion System is equipped for 90 days of application, features one sonic infuser, two serum dispenser caps, a replacement tip and universal charger.   


Over time you will need to replace the caps, and the refills look like this:



Price & Availability:
The Opal Sonic Infusion System is available for $245 exclusively at Clarisonic.com, as well as at select spas and dermatology offices starting January 2010.  It is well-worth the pretty penny.
