Skin Cleansing Systems: Clarisonic Mia vs. Olay Pro-X


I had been using the Olay Pro-X for about 6 months until my lovely girl friends gifted me a surprise upgrade to the Clarisonic Mia for my birthday in December.


My routine has been to use the cleansing system with a gentle cleanser once per day, typically in the night to remove any extra makeup and oil/dirt on my skin.

The Mia was an upgrade indeed as you can see the brush head is much bigger than the Pro-X with a lot more density to provide a deeper clean for your skin. 

For the price difference, you would definitely hope for better results when you compare the Pro-X at $30 retail and the Mia at $125 retail.

I'm not by any means bashing the Pro-X as I really liked it up until I received the upgrade so I would still recommend it if you are looking for an inexpensive cleansing system. It works just fine but you get what you pay for ;-)

As for the Mia, I really like how it thoroughly cleans my skin and makes it feel super soft especially when used with the Clarisonic Gel Cleanser that came with it.

The other great thing about the Mia is that there are several brush head options you can purchase depending on your skin needs such as deep cleaning, sensitive skin, and acne cleansing. So far, I've stuck with the normal brush head and it works perfectly fine for me.

I'm curious to hear everyone recommendations or experience with skin cleansing systems.

  1. I love my Clarisonic. I bit the bullet and bought myself one a year ago and have noticed a difference, just using it 3x a week.

  5. Best purchase ever! I seriously love mine. I have had mine for a little over a year and I can tell a huge difference in my skin. It feels so much "cleaner"!

  6. I'm hoping to get a Mia for my birthday this year. I have very acneic hormonal skin and the amount of breakouts I have are ridiculous. Glad to hear your comparison!

    1. The Clarisonic should work well for you then just make sure to use a cleanser that is gentle and good for your skin type ;-)
