The Random Acts of Kindness of Clarisonic

You know I’m a BIG, BIG fan of Clarisonic, right? I’ve been a fan since the very first Clarisonic (aka the Original) came out. It helps to cleanse and gently exfoliate skin on a regular basis. Clarisonic wants to make your holidays a little brighter (and cleaner!) by giving Temptalia readers a chance to win one of their very own.

What You’ll Win

THREE lucky winners will win a set of Clarisonics (yes — TWO Clarisonics) of their choice! You’ll get to choose the model and color — make it the perfect one for you!

Clarisonic has three versions available to choose from:

  • MIA Smaller, more compact than the originalm with one speed ($149) (my review)
  • Classic The original, two-speed cleansing system ($195) (my review)
  • PLUS Three speeds, plus a “body mode” and a brush for the body ($225) (it’s the only one I don’t have!)

Clarisonic also offers an excellent comparison chart for easy shopping between models.

How to Enter

Leave a comment on this post nominating someone in your life to receive a free Clarisonic of their choice and tell us why you think they should win!

Rules

All entries must be submitted by December 23rd, 2009 at 11:59 PM PST. This contest is open to all readers as pursuant to your local state/country’s laws. Please make sure to use a valid e-mail address when leaving your comment.  Winner will be chosen randomly and notified via e-mail. This post will be updated once winners have been confirmed.

I’m pretty much out of my mind with the opportunity and Clarisonic’s generosity (they’re even extending it to ALL readers, U.S. or not!), so I hope you are as well! :)   Lots of gratitude and thank yous to the lovely folks at Clarisonic!

Congratulations to Brittany, Cherie, & Lynn!

I would nominate my Husband. We just had a baby and I haven't been working, so he has been working his 7am-7pm job plus on his days off he's been doing odd jobs around town. He is amazing at trying to take care of our daughter and myself. He has terribly big pores that he is embarrased of and I would LOVE to be able to give him something back t o paper himself with.

to pamper...not paper.Oops!

THANK YOU CHRISTINE AND CLARISONIC!!!! :)

I would nominate my BFF Jennifer to receive a Clarisonic as well as my Mom. I already have one (the Classic) and always tell them both how amazing the Clarisonic is-I would love for them to experience it first-hand!

I would give one to my boyfriend, his pores needs it! lol

i would say my mom because she has so many kids like 12 of them and she never has time for her self so i would like to say my mother.... and also i love her dearly....

I nominate my mom! She works so hard everyday and she has always been searching for a way to get rid of her blackheads. What better way than with a clarisonic?!

I would like to nominate my brother. He had open heart surgery in November at the age of 32 and he is getting back to being able to take care of himself and I would like to give him something to help encourage him.

I nominate my little sister. She has the beautiful young skin, but cakes on makeup because of that reason and insecurity. I'm afraid all that makeup is going to affect her skin in the long run, so the Clarisonic can help her remove all traces of it and take care of her skin for her.

i nominate my step-sister because she has suffered through a lot of acne issues including break outs/scarring all over her face, except her chin and nose. She can't afford something like this and I can't buy her one because I don't have a job. This is such a great give a way for everyone i'm positive! i'm so excited for whoever wins!!!

I nominate my mother to get a free Clarisonic. She works like crazy and I would love for her to be able to take a few minutes to indulger herself and relax. I know she wants to take better care of herself, and I bet she would love the body setting on the Clarisonic Plus. It would also her fade her sun damaged face and chest skin, which would make her quite happy. Thanks!

Regarding the Clarisonic giveaway that you are hopefully putting the results up soon for: I have Psoriasis. When stress in my life gets really bad, my skin breaks out enormously. I actually had to go to a large portion of my high school days with a hat, all throughout the classes. My face is currently so bad that I can't even wear foundation, powder, whatever....if I do, mainly around my nose and inner cheek area around my nose, it cakes up and looks five billion times worse. So I end up having to walk around with my skin looking terrible and I think that something like the Clarisonic might help my skin greatly....it wouldn't fix my skin condition, but if I used it regularly, I'm sure that it would be much easier to apply makeup to look my best every day. I cannot afford half of the stuff I would like in order to care for my skin, so this would be a miracle...you would be like Jesus to me...seriously... I know that you are probably doing random drawings, but if you might consider peoples situations for the clarisonic giveaway specifically, please consider mine..... I know I am asking a lot, but I hope you will understand...

My friend deborah would be a great candidate for a clarasonic, because she has dry skin on her face and arms and nothing she uses seems to exfoliate the skin. I know clarasonics are used now when you get a facial at many salons so it would also benefit her to be able to get into her pores like they do in facials at home! :)

checking in... did this get sent out yet?

living in the tropics make our skin expose to harsh sunlight all year long. with Clarisonics, it restores my skin to the way nature intended.

I want to nominate my younger sister Christine. She is single mother of 4 and as you can imagine she hardly has time for herself or money. Although my sister doesn't have much she is always willing to try and help others. She also suffers from mild ance and I think this product would be great for her.

Never heard of something like this but it would be interesting to test it :D One would be for my mom :)

My mom deserves this! She is in her 60s and needs Clarisonic for a radiant, luminous and a younger looking skin. I will post a review on the before and after pictures of my mom after using Clarisonic if she wins!

I think my Sisters should Win One! And i think the plus One would Be the Best One! She always wanted this Thing!

I would like to nominate my older sister because I want to reward her with something nice this year. She is struggling to overcome depression and taking care of herself is a big step towards recovery.

I would like to nominate my mom because she this year she has been through a lot. I never really get her anything for either her birthday or christmas that she likes but she has been wanting one of these and since I can't really afford it I would love to win this for her.

Like I said before I really would like my sister to win one too, we share the same passion for skin care and I think she deserves it! and we'd have fun together trying it out!

I nominate my sister Susan. she took care of my home and bill-paying and more when I was hospitalized for months after a car accident a couple of years ago, and continued to help me until I was finally able to be fully independent again earlier this year. she rocks, and she deserves something special to take care of her special self. :)

I would nominate my mom...just because I love her so much!! She is an incredibley kind woman with a big heart, it would be nice to surprise her with a Clarsonic :)

I nominate my sister--she has had a very rough year; divorce, lost her job, our mother had to go to a nursing home more! She really needs to start taking care of herself, this would be a wonderful start.

I nominate my sister......She would LOVE this! She would never buy one for herself being that she's college student and makes minimum wage. So she's on a limited budget. And again just because she would love it

I think my mom should get the Clarisonics, because she's such a gorgeous mom, person and my best friend. She gives so much that I think she should recieve something back.

I would like to nominate my beautiful daughter Mackenzie. She has always been such a joy because of her happy, helpful personality. Our home is filled with laughter and love because she's here. At such a young age (15) shes had to endure hardships that would bring most adults to their knees. She did so unselfishly with grace, light, and love. I admire her and am in awe of what a special person she has chosen to be. The world would be a better place if we lived each day to lift up those around us like she does. The Clarisonic has been on her wish list for a while now. Shes very proud of how she takes care of her skin. She'd be over the moon to be chosen.

I would like to nominate my best friend Lily. She recently gone through some changes with her skin and now has adult acne. I think this would be a great gift for her in helping her start her "journey" to getting smooth skin again!

I would love to give my mother a clarisonic for christmas because this is the first year with my parents being seperated. I don't make alot money to get her a huge gift but I know she would be so thankful for one!

I nominate my mom. Our family has been going through a rough time for the past few months and giving her a Clarisonic would be a great way for her to pamper herself. I wish she'd give more time to herself.

I know this may sound so cliche at the moment ... but yes I would nominate my mother because she recently found out she has rosacea and her dermatologist suggested the Clarisonic as part of her face cleansing routine. At the moment she can't afford to buy herself one and neither can I ! Lately she has been feeling very down with the physical appearance and with the Clarisonic it would give her a self-esteem booster and would be great to see her smile again !

I'd like to nominate my grandmother who is 72 years old, works full-time, and spends most of her money on others. When she does decide to treat herself to something new it's usually a beauty product. She loves B&BW body splashes and Philosophy 3-in-1 shower gels. Skincare products are definitely her favorite, and she taught me the importance of good skincare from a very early age. I think a new Clairsonic would be quite a treat for her.

I nominate my best friend, Jenn. She is in law school and a clarisonic would be an awesome way to celebrate the end of finals!

I nominate my old roommate, Joanie, because we used to worry about and bond over our skincare together all the time while stressed from work/graduate school. :)

What an amazing giveaway! I would love a clarisonic for myself -- plus this would make an excellent birthday gift next month for my younger sister!! I am blown away by your amazing generousity with these contests, and the superb quality of your blog/web site as a whole!

I nominate my mom. She has done a lot for me growing up and has always been there for me. My father divorced her and left her with nothing. She has not let that stop her. She has continued to take of everything and this would be a wonderful gift for her.She is such a determined woman and does so many nice things for other people, this would be a way for me to do someting nice for her. I would love to buy her something like this but I cannot afford it. Furthermore, she has struggled with blotchy skin and cannot afford the treatment so this would help her with that and be a great gift. Please pick my mom. :-)

I'd definitely choose my mom. She's had a rough year, with my dad passing away, and something like this would be great for her to give herself a little mini facial at home to make herself feel better on the days when she's down.

This is a toughie for me...but I think I would nominate my mom, the woman is always a giver...I would like my mom to share the joy that clean skin brings...I know for her growing up, she had bad skin...Just like I am going through now...I think it would be an excellent surprise for my Best Friend in the World!!!

What an amazing opportunity! Thanks so much I would nominate my mom, she's honestly the hardest working woman I know! She deserves some pampering, and she would more than love this.

I nominate my best friend Melanie. She's always had skin issues with her super-dry and flaky skin. I think this would be the perfect thing for her to try out as a new exfoliator to finally cure her skin! She deserves to get something like this, since she's always spending her time thinking about everything other than HERSELF!! I love her, and this would be awesome to win for her :)

I would like to nominate my sister, she's so busy being a single parent that she doesn't have time for herself! <3

My mother-in-law has had the most amazing skin I've ever seen and this summer she got a terrible heat rash that's left her face marked up and red. To clean her face is a mission since anything too abrasive hurts and anything too light makes her feel like she's not really cleansing. I think that the Clairsonic would make it easier for her to cleanse her face and make a notable difference. Hopefully, seeing her skin brighten will lift her spirit!

I nominate my little sister. She's a hard working teacher and deserves to be able to pamper herself with a Clarisonic!

I want to nominate my mom! She is amazing and has done everything she could for me and my sister, it would be really nice to be able to give her something she really deserves for all that she has been through.

I would like my mum to win. She goes out of her way just to make people happy. She is more than generous, always giving, and never asking. My mum's a saint, really! However, she rarely gives to herself. She does not have the time to tend to her skin and health. I really believe she deserves something in return.

My mom because she got a chance to test a Clarisonic and she said it is absolutely amazing!

I would like to nominate my mother, Diana, and my aunt, Nadia. Both of them have had five children, so if there's anyone who deserves a bit of pampering, it's definitely them! They really have put all of their energies into their families, and would never in a million years spend money on luxuries like these. This would really make their holiday! Thanks for the opportunity and happy holidays!!!!

Wow, this is great. I want to nominate my sister, as she has acne and markings on her back. This would help her in clearing some of that up and be able to wear tank tops. :)
