The difference between the olay and clarisonic sounds like the difference between the clairsonic mia and the clarisonc. I asked the girl at Sephora what the dif was between the mia and regular and she said the way they rotate and the speeds. The mia does not work the same as the regular. Kinda sounds like how the olay is?

I got mine last night at Target for about $30 and I also purchased an extra brush head to go with it. It came with a small tube of cleanser and so far I've only used it twice, but I liked it. Getting a Clarisonic has been on my list for a while, but I wanted to try something cheaper to see if I like it before I invest in the Clarisonic.

Overall I like the Olay, although I still don't have much experience with it since I just got it. But the brush head is nice and soft, it comes with batteries, and I used it in the shower with no problems at all.

I think this would be a good product for someone who wants to test drive a Clarisonic-esque cleansing system before buying the real deal, but since I don't have a clarisonic I can't compare the two.

But so far I like it!

I got this at target recently. I have only used it twice, but so far so good. My skin feels a lot smoother.

My only complaint is sometimes my cheeks feel a slight tingle/sore when I use this. I keep trying to use a little pressure as possible and the speed is on the lowest. Perhaps its the bristles..... The feeling goes away quickly and the skin is not red. I will see if I just need to adjust to it.

I have never used the clairsonic. Like many of you, I have always been interested in purchasing one but I wasn't sure about spending the money on it. For $30 this was a great way to try a similar system out.

I just picked it up at wal-mart. THey have it for $29.88 but I had the rite-Aid flyer and RA has it for $19.99 after the card discount so wal-mart did a price match for me. Can't wait to try it! Can any face wash be used with it?

I just saw a review comparing it against the Clarisonic on Ginabinawina99's channel on youtube. She is very well spoken and thorough. "Olay Pro X Cleansing System vs. Clarisonic - Battle of the Brands" - don't know if you're allowed to link videos here.

ah cool - glad you all like it ... i just shelled out $60AUD for it on ebay (they dont sell it here and the shipping was $20) but it also comes with the cleanser and spare brush so whatever ... cant wait to try it. I hope its okay for skin that has the odd break out - since coming off the pill (and now being pregnant) my forehead gets annoying small breakouts ...

I've been using this for about 3 weeks and I have to say, I'm impressed! My face is so much smoother and my pores appear smaller.

Ok, I'm going to buy this tomorrow, I've been eyeing it at Costco for about a month & have been wanting to try the Clarisonic for awhile, but I can't justify shelling out $200 for one. I'm going to pick it up at Rite Aid tomorrow :D

I've been using the olay pro X for about two weeks now and so far, so good. I got it as a trial run before getting a clarisonic, and since I liked it so much, I went ahead and got the clarisonic mia.

In case anyone with the olay pro X is considering a clarisonic, here are some side by side shots so you can see how the size of the olay compares to the pink mia:

Wow! That olay is small! The mia is smaller than the regular clarisonic, so the olay verses the regular clarisonic is a HUGE difference. I like the Clarisonic better because you can use it on your body. I don't know if the olay comes with a body brush, but that would take a while with a brush so small. Thanks for the pics and reviews.

So i used it last night and wow! I am seriously impressed.

I didnt know what to expect but when i felt how soft the brush was i thought 'forget this doing anything to my skin' ... gave it a go ... and it was amazing.

My blemish prone forehead (thank you pregnancy hormones) was smooth and soft - like really smooth ... no breakouts this morning or anything ....

I used it again this morn when i cleansed ... not sure if you're only meant to use it once a day but since it was so gentle i thought it was okay.

My skin is glowing ... im very very happy with this product and recommend it to anyone with conjestion (not sure about full on pimples though ... although someone rated it on acne.org so thats a good sign).

I hope it keeps on making my skin this good!
