Anyone recommend a micro current device?

I’m in my mid 40s and definitely have jowls, wrinkles etc. I also have acne so not keen to try creams, serums etc.
I’ve been looking at the NUFACE micro current device and wondering whether it actually works?!!! Looking to tone up my skin. Would love to hear your thoughts Smile

It would be great if there was. When I've got a little time I'm going to have a good research and try and find out.

So I decided to use my Rio device over a sheet face mask today. Just a cheapie from Superdrug. Worked really well. I can get a couple of goes from each sheet I think so I’ve popped it back in the packet to keep it wet.

Second very interesting fact is eyebrows are officially sitting higher! It’s mad. My eyebrows didn’t have a great shape, I had them microbladed a couple of years ago and they were quite flat. Acceptable but not great. I just looked in the mirror and there’s now a noticeable arch. I’m rather shocked.

Just to prove I’m not going mad the small line is back to the side of my right eyebrow that was last there a decade ago when I used to have Botox to lift the outer edges of my brows and help my hooded eye on that side. Crazy 😮

Please do not reuse a sheet mask, it's designed for single use and subsequently the preservative system is not sufficient to leave it opened and reuse, it's really unhygienic.

I was only going to reuse it tomorrow. Not continuously.

Doesn't matter, it's single use, it's been on your face, it's used.

Honestly today has been the weirdest day. Everyone seems to be in such a peculiar mood.

Apologies for resurrecting this thread, but I saw this in my local Aldi today and it was reduced to £12.99 so I bought it to try, having read up on this thread months ago.

I've got a tube of Holland & Barret aloe Vera gel so will be using that first of all. No idea if it's going to be any good, will report back!

Dammit, I paid a full 25 quid for that a couple of weeks ago! I got the conducting gel off Amazon when somebody posted a link here - there's a thread about the Aldi ones somewhere Smile
