lightweight easy to use facial brush with speeds and pulsing action [SEP] i have used a clarisonic mia brush for more than two years and although i like it i have read that the clarisonic brush can be too harsh so i was interested to try the philips pureradiance brush first the differences the philips pureradiance brush has two speeds one is gentle and the other is a more intense option this is a good feature as in the winter when my skin is dry a gentler speed is better for my skin the philips pureradiance brush has rotating bristles plus an pulsing feeling the brush head is smaller than clarisonic so it is easy to use in small areas such as between your nose and mouth similar to the philips toothbrush the pureradiance brush has three timed sessions of seconds each for three zones of your face this is beneficial if you have a tendency to over scrub or irritate your skin the pureradiance brush is smaller and lighter than the clarisonicthe pureradiance is a different experience from the clarisonic it is not bad just different if this is your first facial brush i think you will like the pureradiance quite a bit if you currently use a different brush you will need to compare features if a gentle light easy to use brush is what you want the philips pureradiance is a nice choice
