Luna Foreo Fofo Brush & Luna For. You App Review!

I received the Luna Fofo before it's release so I thought I'd test, review and compare for y'all before my video review.

I have owned the Foreo Luna 2 ($199.00 USD @Sephora) for about a year and a half and i like it but it gets a bit tedious to use and it's not super comfortable in a smaller female hand.

So the fofo is about the size of the Luna Mini and looks super similar except for one huge difference. The metal sensors on the back of this Luna face cleaning brush.

Bottom is Luna Fofo

The sensors are what make this new face brush unique in a sea of face cleansing brushes from every price range.

Foreo is an innovative brand and always has been but they really opened up a new category of skin care products with it being Android and Apple capable with it's own app! Amazing!

You may think this is gimmicky but no, the possibilities are limitless with this new genre of app capable beauty products.

So as just for the product it's great. I feel much cleaner than just washing my face on my own with just my hands.

I normally wash my makeup off and then wash again and then maybe an exfoliator/ and or mask following that once or twice a week.

This brush like all recommend cleansing makeup off first and then washing again with a non abrasive face wash with the brush for maximum cleanliness and keeping your brush good as new.

It is completely anti bacterial so nothing will be growing on it between uses like it does with fiber and bristled face brushes.

The nubbies on the top are for oily and hard to cleanse areas and the smaller, closer together nubbies are for more sensitive skin. Both sides feel great but i love the nubbies on my acne prone skin and hard to reach places and curves on my face.

Now how does it work and how does the app measure up? Let me tell you!

The app is currently still Beta Testing and the screen shots are from June 22nd, 2018.

I have the petal pink brush. Immediately unboxed it came with a bright pink magnet 2D Foreo play brush shaped ID card. Save that. It's your proof it's real if any issues arrive and you need to confirm with the company.

Now download the Foreo For You app. It doesn't take much room or much time to download on your average connection.

The minute you sign on sign up is one page and super easy. The app walks you through every step. Even the most technically challenged can get in on this latest technology.

Now you link it to your phone by bluetooth as directed when directed. You hold down the on button for 5 seconds.

Pretty quickly it brings you to the next page where you test your skin. It tells you where to hold it on your face starting with right cheek, left cheek, forehead and then nose and will tell you when it's done loading the info. It's all very quick.

Next, it brings you to the page with your results. It tells you your skin moisture level, your skin age and thats pretty much it. On the main page it has a picture of a face with water droplets on each part of the face measured to tell you how your face measured for moisture on each of those places.

Then it asks if you're ready to start cleaning and you press start when you are and it starts it for you from your phone. You can start it on your own though.

Just like the luna 2 it vibrates when it's time to switch the area your cleaning on your face and then turns off automatically.

Want more? Just start it up again from your phone or the brush.
It does not have a charger like the Luna 2.

You can keep re testing. The app is really basic but i love that it's not a sale technique constantly bombarding you with what you should buy from them or others.

The app is also used with the Luna UFO Mask thingy. I still dont get what that does but it looks like foreos app capable products are here to stay and more to come!

Honestly that part doesnt seem very practical as my face and fingers are already damp and soapy from spreading the soap arond my face before starting.

FOREO LUNA FOFO VS. FOREO LUNA 2

I like the Fofo much better personally as it is much easier to use and it fits in my hand much easier than the Luna. It's not so big and bulky and it delivers just as good of a wash in my opinion.

It does not have different vibration settings for how powerful of a clean you want but other than that i really prefer the Fofo for practical and technical reasons.
