Clarisonic sonic cleansing is safe and gentle

Study Objective:

Gentleness was assessed by excessively using Clarisonic sonic cleansing in a confined area for a controlled time period

Methodology:

• 11 subjects participated in the study
• The skin of the lower leg was stained with a commercial self-tanning solution to artificially darken the skin's pigment
• Cleansing methods consisted of Clarisonic sonic cleansing with water, a nylon facial pad with water, a daily facial scrub, and no treatment control
• Before and after cleansing, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), skin temperature and color intensity were measured to confirm the gentleness and safety of Clarisonic cleansing
• Clarisonic sonic cleansing was shown to be gentle and safe for daily use without disruption to the skin barrier

Results:

• Clarisonic sonic cleansing was shown to be gentle and safe for daily use without disruption to the skin barrier

*We advise those with skin care conditions to consult a professional prior to using Clarisonic sonic cleansing
