I had a Clarisonic Mia 2 and as far as I know, they have gone out of business as I was unable to get replacement brush heads. So I switched to the Foreo Luna.
I absolutely love it, I wasn’t fussed with having it and I’ve never used something like that before but it’s so much quicker than how I would usually cleanse and makes my face feel so clean. Definitely a dark horse!
I have the Foreo Luna 3 for sensitive skin and it is a joy to use without disturbing my skin. I really notice the difference if I stop using it for a few days.
That's the one I have
My face doesn't feel clean to me if I don't use it, I love it
The Aldi Nuface has arrived, got the amazon gel too. It has reminded me I've got another face zapper somewhere, must dig it out and see what it promised, obviously didn't work as it's in the drawer of doom, mostly hair gadgets.
My Aldi nuface arrived this morning too. I’m excited to try it. Anyone got a decent video on how best to use it?
I get on very well with the Holland & Barrett aloe vera gel - not the Dr Organics one which I found a bit irritating but the ordinary one that comes in a light green tube or pump. It's quite cheap and often on special offer.
I had a terrible reaction to the Holland and Barrett alone vera gel. I tried a bland ultrasound gel from Amazon and while it wasn't irritating it was a bit too thick and didn't feel as nice as the Nuface primer gel. I use the ultrasound gel with my Nuface body (when I bother to use it, that is) and the Nuface on my face. I don't spend as much on skincare these days and have scaled back so I can justify the extra expense
Yes, I use it every so often and it does get better. I have very sensitive skin and I can just about do 10 minutes now and my skin looks so much better afterwards.
Generally you won't feel anything if you have enough gel on. For a video I'd say just look at the Nuface trinity video
Thanks I was like am I doing this right my face was full of gel lol
I was the same until I touched a bit of skin that didn’t have gel and then you realise…you’d deffo rather not feel it
How often do you use it? I’m reluctant to try again tbh!
There's a good video on the basic NuFace routine on the Current Body website. There are a number of videos on YouTube doing more advanced routines. There's one by HotandFlashy I'd recommend.
Probably about once a month, I should try to do it more often but I forget!I was the same until I touched a bit of skin that didn’t have gel and then you realise…you’d deffo rather not feel it

I love this stuff. I probably use it once a fortnight. And once a month I do dermaplaning then use this AHA solution, then serums after. It probably only stings me in the last minute or so, I leave it on for 10 and have oily skin.
I had read that some people had a reaction to it; some info here.
Allergies Triggered by Cosmetics
Chances are good that you are allergic to certain cosmetics. WebMD explains the symptoms.
www.webmd.com
"Beauty products that have alpha-hydroxy acids can cause problems for some people, like redness, swelling, blisters, and itching -- especially with products that have an AHA level over 10%.
Retin-A wrinkle creams and serums can also cause irritant contact dermatitis in some people.
Many people have "sunscreen sensitivity." For them, almost all sun-protection products can cause a dermatitis-type reaction."
I've just bought the Ordinary Lactic Acid (as can't use the AHA in pregnancy) so going to try that as a gentler alternative.
I'd recommend just doing the nuface recommended routines. there's one here:
damn, I should have used an affiliate link
