I've
got to be honest...when I was first handed the
Foreo LUNA Mini I was
bewildered by it's appearance. I had no idea what it was for or what I
was supposed to be doing with it. Now that I've been using it for two
weeks, I'm hooked. Read on to find out why!
What It Is & Why It's So Awesome
The
LUNA Mini is a ergonomic, deep-cleansing facial device that fits in the
palm of your hand. This device deep cleans your face without being too
harsh, so it's great for all skin types, including sensitive and
acne-prone.
Like
the LUNA, this compact version offers T-Sonic technology, which stands
for "transdermal sonic". The LUNA Mini delivers 8,000 pulsations per
minute. Unlike standard oscillation, transdermal sonic pulsations gently
stimulate blood flow beneath the skin’s surface, cleansing from the
inside out and smoothing away the signs of aging. It's basically
massaging your skin to a cleaner, healthier state!
Since
the LUNA devices are made of quick-drying, nonporous silicone that
resists bacteria buildup, they are 35 times more hygienic than your
standard bristled facial-cleansing brushes. The rounded silicone
touch-points glide across the face, making it gentle enough for daily
use and delivering nonabrasive, extra-gentle cleansing that feels
amazing on the skin. Like, REALLY amazing!
How To Use It
When
I first started using this device, I admittedly did not read the
complete instructions. You're actually only supposed to use the device
for one minute. The device powers off after three minutes to prevent
overuse... I just thought that my minute long facial cleanse took
FOREVER!
There
is a built in timer that pauses the pulsations every fifteen seconds to
indicate when you should move to another area of your face. When the
minute is up, the pulsations will pause and the bottom of the device
will flash three times in succession to signify the end of your
cleansing routine.
The
LUNA Mini offers two intensity modes. If you press the center button
once, you'll be in "high-intensity mode". If you press the center button
twice, you'll be in "low-intensity mode". I've been using
"high-intensity mode" because it feels like a facial massage to me,
rather than a daily chore!
Now that you know a little bit more about the device, it's time to get started:
1.
First things first, wet your face and apply your favorite cleanser. You
can use any facial cleanser with the LUNA Mini, but to keep your device
in optimal condition, avoid using clay-based, silicone-based or grainy
cleansers as they may damage the silicone touch-points. It's also
STRONGLY ADVISED that you DO NOT use cleansing oils with the LUNA
devices because they will damage the silicone.
2.
Wet the device and turn it on by pressing the center button. It's
completely waterproof, including the charging point, so you don't have
to worry about keeping water out of that hole. For the first week of
use, I didn't know this and was super paranoid about breaking the device
by getting water in it. I was cleansing with my finger over the
charging point until I found this helpful hint out!
3.
As soon as you've selected the desired intensity, gently move the LUNA
Mini in circular motions over your face for one minute. When the minute
is over, simply power off by pressing the center button again, and then
rinse your face.
4. That's it, you're done.
Results
The
LUNA Mini boasts that just one minute, twice a day, will visibly
improve your complexion in three days. Blemish-causing impurities are
gently cleansed away, which will not only improve the absorption of your
other skincare products, but leave your skin looking clearer, healthier
and glowing.
I
can personally agree with these statements. After the first use, I was
already raving about it! My skin felt so soft and clean. Now that I've
used it for two weeks, I can definitely say that my skin is feeling and
looking much healthier. I've noticed less breakouts, practically no pore
buildup, and yes...my skin is glowing! I recently visited my
esthetician and she even commented on how great my skin was doing!
Beautiful skin may come naturally to some, but for most, it takes care
and commitment to get there. The
LUNA Mini is definitely helping me get
there!
Until next time,
♥
