of all the black friday // cyber monday deals we did on mint arrow the past weekend, the EXCLUSIVE PMD personal microderm HALF OFF + FREE SHIPPING was by far my favorite! apparently it was yours too, since we crashed PMD's site when the deal went live 😉 don't worry they're all recovered and working perfectly now!
i LOVE that we were able to bring you an exclusive deal on one of my favorite FAVORITE products ever of all time!! this tool has literally changed my life (and my skin!) for the better.
i've seen lots and LOTS of questions about the PMD and i know some of you may be on the fence, so to help clear up any questions i decided to do a quick FAQ post today since it's the LAST day for this deal! and we likely won't see anything this good again for a very long time!
the #1 question i get: how is this different than the clarisonic? do i need both? which one would you get if you had to pick?
ugh this question is SO HARD! i have both and am obsessed with both. they're so different though, not apples to apples at all. it's like asking someone with an all-hardwood-floor home whether they want a mop or a broom. they perform totally different functions! the clarisonic is for daily cleansing and gets my makeup off better than anything i've ever used. the PMD however, takes off a layer of dead skin and has literally completely transformed my skin. it reduces pores and wrinkles and fine lines and sun spots and redness and has been the only thing to finally clear up a skin condition called keratosis pilaris that i've had my whole life! so, okay fine. if i had to choose just one, i'd go with the PMD. see a deal on the clarisonic today only here if you're in the market for that too!
how do you use it? do you need other products?
nope! to use your PMD all you need is clean, dry skin. the only trick to using it is to make sure you don't go over the same area twice. i always start at the bottom of my jaw line and move up, in stripes. the PMD basically suctions your skin and with the little disc, performs a microdermabrasion (exfoliation) on your skin.
does it hurt?
nope! it tingles a little maybe. but it doesn't hurt.
can i use it on other parts of my body other than just my face?
YES! one of the reasons i love my PMD so much is because it literally was the only thing that finally got rid of my keratosis pilaris (those little red bumps that people get on the back of their arms). i moisturize on my arms daily with trader joe's coconut oil and then once a week, again with clean dry skin, i use the larger attachment and do a PMD treatment on my arms. i saw drastic improvements in just a couple weeks!
does the code work for every color?
YES! every color!! grey, mint, purple, pink or blue.
i've seen you post about a pink and a mint one. are they the same?
yep. my mom has the mint one at her house in UT (pictured here) and i have the pink one back at home in CA. both so cute. both exactly the same.
does it really work?
you guys. YES!!! it really works. it really has changed my life. i really would run right out and buy a new one if i ever lost mine. i promise you will love it and be so SO happy you got one. and especially that you got it for half off and free shipping. cheers to you for being so smart and frugal!
PMD has their own FAQ page also that will probably answer any additional questions you have! i wanted to personally answer all the questions i've received though in my own words. i hope that was helpful! 🙂

**update** i'm SO SORRY for all the trouble that many of you had with the code earlier today! PMD has fixed it and the code will continue to work until THURSDAY of this week to make up for all the trouble. thanks for being so sweet and understanding while we worked all of this out! you guys are the best. ever. xxo
You are seriously the BEST. I just ordered one for myself and for my mom for Christmas! What an awesome deal!

Do you recommend this for someone that has dry skin? I am really considering buying this today. I’ve seen your other post about it and I’ve wanted it but haven’t really wanted to spend the money.
Do you feel like you need to avoid direct sun for a few days after doing this or could you still go out the next day (with sunscreen obviously!)? I know with a few treatments I have had during a facial you would, so I was unsure of how that relates to the use for this product during summer/vacations/etc in your experience. Thanks 🙂
hey julie, nope! it’s just an exfoliator so i don’t feel like i have to avoid sun after a treatment 😀
Your code isn’t working and I was really hoping to score one of these! Says it’s expired?
i’m so sorry!! i don’t know what the problem is but i just emailed PMD and i’ll let you know as SOON as i know it’s working again. it wasn’t supposed to expire until midnight!
Ok so sorry…just saw message above mine…oops.
I had to Copy and paste the code, then it worked.
Nooooo! I just tried to get it and it says your code has expired! Wasn’t it supposed to work until midnight?
i’m so sorry!! i don’t know what the problem is but i just emailed PMD and i’ll let you know as SOON as i know it’s working again. it wasn’t supposed to expire until midnight!

Hi! Thank you for this great deal however I am at the checkout and the deal says it is expired and it’s not even close to midnight 🙁

Was on the fence on getting one, and finally decided on getting one after your last PMD post. Was so excited, but when I went to order it said the code expired. So sad!
i’m so sorry!! i don’t know what the problem is but i just emailed PMD and i’ll let you know as SOON as i know it’s working again. it wasn’t supposed to expire until midnight!
Any luck getting the code fixed??

Hey there! Was just trying to get this deal before I was too late- tried to get a few different colors, looked like pink was the only one left but when put MINT40 promo code in, it said it had expired?! Say it isn’t so???!! Lol it’s 5:27 mountain time and I didn’t know if it just not working or if I’m doing something wrong? I didn’t wanna miss out on this amazing deal. Thanks so much-

Seeing all these comments now. Hopefully the fix this so the coupon will work. 🙁
I just placed an order for the PMD and the code works! Just wanted to let you all know so you can go snag one. Good Luck!
The code is back up and working
Just ordered one! How often do you replace the discs for the PMD? The website FAQ says to replace after four uses…wondering if this has been necessary for you…
hi dahlia! i push them a little longer, probably 6-8 times (instead of 4) 😀
Hello ladies,
I JUST used the promo code and it worked just fine (finally!) Thanks for sharing such a good deal Corrine!
Got it!!! Thank you so much! I’ve honestly never heard of these until I started following you a few days ago. You sold me =) Can’t wait to try! And what a great deal!
Just ordered mine with your code 🙂 Thank You!!!! Merry Christmas to me 😉
Which one do you recommend purchasing? I am a female in the US, so obviously I can exclude the European and male versions, but there were a couple to choose from! Thanks.
hey crystal! all the PMD personal microderms are the same, just different colors for fun 😀 hope that helps!
Thank you, thank you!! So excited to try this!
I ordered one! Do you know how long it takes to ship? I couldnt find anything on the site about shipping time.
Hey Corrine! This is Shawna (we did Natalie’s baby shower together long time ago,) and I love reading your blog:) I’m super excited about the PMD I just ordered!!! Do you use the toner and moisturizer they recommend?? Any other post PMD routines you recommend?
hey shawna! long time!! 😀 i do have some favorite skincare tips and i’ll be sharing them on the blog soon! 😀
Thank you and PMD so much for the code!! It finally worked. Can’t wait to try it! I almost bought two because of the great sale but I’ve never tried it. I hope they will have this great of a deal next year in case I learn to love it just like you do and buy it for friends 🙂
thanks for the info! three follow-up questions: (1) do you have (recommend) the personal or the pro? i read that the pro has two speeds, but i didn’t know how beneficial that would be. the link you gave makes me think you have the personal, but i just wanted to make sure. (2) the discount code will not work for the pro, correct? (3) would you consider posting a video of you using it on your face for us newbies? thanks again for all your info and help!
abby so sorry i’m just now seeing this! i hope the video i posted helped a little! 😀
I am so sad that I missed this deal. Do you know if it will be going on sale again before Christmas?
i’m not exactly sure jenn but i’m always on the lookout for a PMD deal and will always post here when i find one! 😀
This is such a great deal. Thank you! Just ordered mine; altho I really wished it worked for the PMDpro as well. That would’ve been a dream!
How long until they ship out? I ordered mine on black Friday and the guy said they were gonna ship out on Monday. But since the code was messed up last night and they extended it until Thursday does this mean they aren’t going to ship until Thursday or Friday now?
i’m not sure, so sorry!
Where is the best place to buy the disc refills for the pmd. Thank you
Hi there, thanks so much for the great savings! I scored this deal the other day but was still charged shipping (35$!!). Is there some exclusions to the free shipping? I live in Canada.
free shipping is only for US customers, so sorry!
Corrine, thank you so much for being so kind, in sharing all these wonderful deals and steals. So glad your discount code was extended, allowed me to purchase a PMD for myself today! Do you recommend a specific moisturizer in conjunction with the system? Is your skin sensitive post using this apparatus? Thank you so much, God bless you and your lovely family.
Hi. I am wanting to purchase a PDM but I can’t get the code to work. Isn’t it good through Thursday? Thank you.
Best,
Sherie
so sorry! it should be working now! 🙂
The code finally worked and I’ve ordered my personal PDM. Thank you so much for partnering with PMD to bring us this amazing deal! 🙂 Happy holidays!
yay i’m so glad! you’re welcome!
Any idea when these will ship? I’m just a little excited to try it!
checking into this right now! i’ll post another update today with this answer so watch for it on the blog 😀
Hi, I thought the discount code was working until Thursday but it’s not working. 🙁
so sorry! it should be working now! 🙂
I just tried to order a couple and it says the code has expired. I have until today right?
so sorry! it should be working now! 🙂
I thought the code was available through today?? It says expired 🙁
so sorry! it should be working now! 🙂
Hey! So I’m starting to get a little anxious about the shipping, I ordered on black friday, I talked to a customer rep the other day from that pmd website because I never got any email confirming that it was shipped and a tracking number. They said that it had been shipped already and gave me the tracking number and she said I should wait until tuesday for the usps shipping info to be updated. It is now thursday and the info on USPS still says “Pre shipment” “a shipping label was created monday at 3:55am” and that is it. There is no updated shipping info other than that and it has been like that since tuesday. I am just confused, does this mean they never dropped my package off at the post office or USPS maybe just hasn’t scanned my package? but why wouldn’t they have scanned my package for a couple days if it’s gone through so many states, like none of the workers scanned it so it could update in their system??
If someone could kindly confirm what is going on that would be lovely because I don’t want to think this is some type of scam. 🙁
hi nicola! i just spoke with PMD and they said everything ships within 24 hours. so, if you ordered today it would ship tomorrow. however, they don’t ship on weekends so if you ordered friday it would have shipped monday. if you’re still having issues or questions please email PMD’s customer service so they can look into your order specifically and help you! i don’t have any access to their site so i can’t do anything more than this. hope this helps!! 🙂
Yea they said it was shipped monday, but it still says pre shipment on the USPS site. I just don’t understand lol I tried calling a minute ago but no one answered and also emailing them yesterday, but haven’t gotten an email back. So I guess i’ll just keep trying to reach someone on that website who has the right info.
Thanks anyways though!
Just wanted to say THANK YOU, I called the site for the other deal you had posted because it still had not shipped and they said they cancelled my order without even notifying me!! Luckily I saw this was still working today so I was able to order a pink one even cheaper than the other. You are awesome!
I love you!!! Thank you for telling me about the FRYE BOOT sale!
My awesome shopper, sister-in-law insists FRYE BOOTS are the only type
of boots that exist!! So today my 17 year old daughter was able to follow her
Hero (aunts) advice, and get her first pair of FRYE Boots!!
Thanks again, we love the sales!!! (It’s all about the Sale!)
oh yay i’m so glad!! you are welcome 😀
I just received mine today (yay!) Is it safe to use while pregnant? I tried to search their website but I don’t see anything saying either way. I guess I just assumed it was from your photos.
yay ashley! i’m so excited for you to try it out. and yes it’s safe to use while pregnant, just be sure to start with the training disc and then start out with the most sensitive disc and go from there, as they outline in their instructions, and you will be fine 🙂
The coupon is still saying its expired!!!! Ohh no, i thought it was until the end of the day!
hey alisha! this was last year’s deal … find this year’s deal here!
