Can you use your own cleanser with the foam head and still get the effect of microdermabrasion? (currently using olay pro x with philosophy's purity cleanser)

Yes you can but no you do not get the same effect. My face feels so great when I use the olay cleanser. You know the saying: "you get what you pay for"

You can only get the effects of the microdermabrasion if you use the thermal crystals but you can use any face wash with it for everyday cleaning, I do and it works great.

With your face soap, mix a small amount of the micrdermabrasion. You will notice a more even cleaner healthier looking skin. I love it

Olay Regenerist does NOT cause breakouts...I used a cheaper generic and my face DID break out in a fine rash. Olay feels silky on my skin, and is the perfect, non greasy makeup base.

You can use any cleansers that you like. I personally use Johnson & Johnson "Purpose" just because it's really gentle. I have used clean & clear and Proactive too! So it's really up to your preference.

Yes I would. Proactive gave me these huge bumps (I cannot call them pimples because I've never gotten pimples so large ever in my life). Murad definitely does not give me bumps. It takes them away :). And while my skin is not 100% clear, as i have not been using the cleanser consistently, I am happy with the results I have gotten for the past 2/3 months. (I use the gel cleanser and the perfecting lotion only. I did not purchase this kit)

I have used it as a cleanser also, so I guess you could use it with a clairsonic. It has no foam at all and is very liquid so I'm not sure how that would work out.

Personally, I feel the need to use something after I remove my make-up with the Bioderma. It might be overkill, but I use a face wash too. However, I have heard from others that they rely on this solution alone to cleanse the face. It has no soap or oil so, I do not see why not. But, it is a personal preference. I have three bottles in my bathroom as I do not want to be without it.

I imagine the only difference is the cleansers that come with it. This one came with a daily cleanser which had a little grit to it. The other was a heavily gritted microdermabrasion cleanser.

I'm sure it's different for everyone, but mine only took a week or so to notice the difference. Beware, if one of the products starts to make your face burn or peel, it's probably not the cleanser - I don't use all 3 products anymore, just the cleanser and sometimes the stuff with SPF.

Quite honestly, I bought an Olay one from CVS in between my 2 Clairsonics. The difference was the speed of the cleaner head & the Olay didn't feel as if it was, 'cleaning as deeply'. My skin truly felt cleaner after the Clairsonic and it is made very well.

Absolutely! That's what I love about this little device. You can use it with any cleanser you like. I alternate days with a gentle foaming cleanser one day and an exfoliating one the next. It's really gentle, so it doesn't scrub off a layer of skin or anything! And the brushes last a LONG time.

I just use the cleanser at the moment and I love it. I like the foaming cleanser much better than the gentle cleanser. The entire product line is great. I used to use the lightening cream and the whole system and my skin looked fantastic. So I guess it is up to you, but you do not need to use the whole system if you don't want to. Just the cleanser or cleanser and toner would be great.

I have pretty large pores myself I do notice a difference in my pores when I use it regularly. I have combination skin I never got dry or flaky skin from this product. To me its def worth the money. I use mine with the Olay Prox Brush. And I love that thing with this product!!

Whatever your favorite face cleanser is. I use a creamy cleanser in the shower & a fruit enzyme cleanser at night. You can use regular bat soap when using the larger body size brush for your body. So.... whatever you like to use will be great! I even use it with my exfolliators!! Enjoy!!!

Your supposed to change em every 3 months- I do about every 4- and I have this head- I don't notice much of a difference between this head and the sensitive one- I got Zana from my dermatologist and that's what cleared my light acne and dirty pores- clarasonic is awesome for exfoliation I totally love it- but I don't notice much of a difference with the heads..;)

I have very sensitive skin. Use only twice (I do) if you notice anything that should not be, change to 1 time a week. I have not experienced any problem using twice a week. You can use a cleanser with the other disc everyday which I do - no problem.

Sorry, I can't really address your question. I have very oily skin and the Olay cream and cleansing device works great for me.
