Just when you thought the Clarisonic family of products couldn’t get more amazing (I’m testing the new Smart Profile and will share my thoughts soon), they come out with the Clarisonic Radiance Collection, a system to help brighten and even the skin tone—two things many of us are constantly striving for. The new system features a new brightening brush head, Sonic Radiance Brightening Solution which is the catalyst of the system so to speak, and an easy-to-follow regimen for both day and night. I can’t wait to get my hands on everything!

For the first time ever, device and formulations come together to systematically combat the appearance of hyperpigmentation, acne-induced discoloration, uneven skin tone and dullness. Clarisonic, the pioneer in sonic cleansing, is revealing its newest breakthrough in transformative skincare: the Sonic Radiance Brightening Solution, the key to unlocking your brightest complexion.

The synergy of device and breakthrough formulations works to slow down the synthesis of excess melanin, combat future dark spot formation, and exfoliate existing pigment at the skin’s surface. Users experience beautifully transformed skin that is brighter, softer, and more radiant. With the new Brightening Activator Serum, Clarisonic makes its debut into leave-on treatments, responding to a growing consumer demand for amplified results by combining devices and formulations.

Clinical Results for Beautifully Transformed Skin:

* IMMEDIATELY: 37% clinical improvement of skin texture

* ONE WEEK: 2.5x greater skin clarity and improved radiance vs. manual treatment

* TWO WEEKS: 10x greater improvement of hyperpigmentation vs. manual treatment

Clinical Research Also Found Significant Results In Consumer Perception:

* 86% of women felt their skin was brighter and more radiant

* 88% of women felt more confident in the appearance of their skin

* 97% of women felt their skin was softer and smoother

The Promise of Sonic Radiance

“Hyperpigmentation is one of the most prevalent skincare concerns across all races and ages, and consumers are discouraged with the current products in the market today,” said Dr. Robb Akridge from Clarisonic. “As a result of tireless research and development, we created a comprehensive system that targets hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, age, hormones, and acne inflammation, so people feel confident in the way their skin looks and feels.”

The Sonic Radiance Brightening Solution Regimen includes:

* ARIATM Cleansing Device: Our best of form and function is combined in our most advanced, customizable facial sonic cleansing device.

* Radiance Brush Head: This innovative new brush head is engineered with denser, softer filaments to deliver a comfortable yet highly effective cleansing experience.

* Skin Illuminating Cleanser: The pigment-balancing activity of licorice in this rich, luxurious cleansing milk gently transforms skin for a radiant, healthy complexion.

* Brightening Activator Serum: Potent skin brightening ingredients ellagic acid and phenylethyl resorcinol combats discoloration, and also provides intense hydration to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.

* Skin Renewing Peel Wash: Featuring LHA, a proprietary peeling acid derived from salicylic acid, and glycolic acid, this peeling wash gently and evenly accelerates exfoliation and retextures skin for visibly radiant results.

Daily Morning Routine: RADIANCE RECOVERY

* Moisten skin. Apply a nickel-sized amount of Skin Illuminating Cleanser directly onto skin or onto a dampened Radiance Brush Head.

* Begin sonic cleansing using the Clarisonic Aria on Speed 1, and follow the one-minute T-TIMER® prompts. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, and finish with a cool water splash.

* Apply 1-2 pumps of Brightening Activator Serum, and massage with fingertips into face, neck and décolleté for a brighter, more youthful-looking complexion.

Daily Evening Routine: TEXTURE RENEWAL

* Moisten skin. Apply a nickel-size amount of Skin Renewing Peel Wash onto skin or directly onto a moistened Radiance Brush Head.

* Begin Sonic Cleansing using the Clarisonic Aria on speed 3, and follow one minute T-TIMER® prompts. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, and finish with a cool water splash. Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.

      Hi Natasha!

      I’ve actually had my blog going on seven years this November and have consistently written beauty and fashion related content during those years—even when barely anyone read it and while I maintained a full time job in the financial services industry. Beauty and fashion are both long-time passions of mine so much so that most of the products I wrote about were things I had already bought myself—my bathroom was a mini Sephora even before I started blogging. After years of being consistent, brands have reached out to ask if they can send me product for review consideration—meaning if it’s something I like or think my audience would enjoy, I’ll write about it but I’m under no obligation to do so. Even to this day, I still buy a lot of the products I write about because I’m that enthusiastic about what I do. Over the years I’ve also caught the attention of several outlets who like my work and I also am a beauty writer for other websites and magazines.

      I say all that to say, I do this all for a living and there is no “signup to try out goodies” as you inquired about. If you’re genuinely interested in writing about beauty, I suggest starting a blog—but be mindful that your audience and brands will know immediately if you’re someone who has an authentic passion for the subject or someone who’s just looking to get free product and some will even call you out on it. If you are interested in starting a blog, here’s a post I wrote giving advice on how to start and maintain one: https://www.thestyleandbeautydoctor.com/2014/01/ask-danielle-how-to-start-and-maintain-a-beauty-blog/

      Good luck to you!

    Great response above! So I have a question about the product. I’m also looking forward to your review on the Smart Profile. I don’t really have an issue from dark spots due to acne. Although I have ridiculously oily skin, my problem wasn’t with acne. Rather, facial hair. I have discoloration from the plucking of these facial hairs, specifically on my chin area. Do you think this product would work for that as well?

      thanks!

      I think the Radiance collection can help with the discoloration if you use it consistently, but I think you’ll find yourself always in that same cycle as the hairs grow back in. Have you ever considered other methods of hair removal? I’m actually contemplating doing laser now that there’s more options out for darker skin tones. Also every time I visit the dermatologist, they’re always trying to get me to do Vaniqa for the little hairs on my chest…lol.
