Review (5/5): Love it! I feel so clean after!!!
Using this device as part of my weekly routine has been great. I have sensitive skin so I don't use it every day, as the instructions reflect. I'd say 2 or, at most, 3 times a week would be fine for all skin types. I did end up making a few red marks after I got used to it and got a little cocky (lol) but that was absolutely my own fault as the instructions also warn of this and how to prevent it. The discoloration (again, self-caused) went down with some icing and was completely gone by the next day with no issues since. I am AMAZED by the amount of GUNK pulled out of my "clean" skin every use, especially in my T-zone. I usually use this and follow with a deep-clean mask for my especially stubborn blackheads and I have to say the combination is without parallel. I've never seen such dramatic results with one single product and this device boosts the effectiveness of the products I already Iove by clearing the way for the next product to penetrate appropriately. I am so, so pleased and amazed with the results of this device, the gentleness (when used appropriately), and the ease of use/cleaning after use. The only question I might have is how to clean the little catch-all pad inside (a great design note as this prevents the "gunk" from clogging the vacuum itself), but that is likely easily remedied and I'm sure I will find a natural cleaning solution to keep my device and all its parts clean and functional for a long time. (Another side-question could be "what type of damage is the suction doing to the elasticity of my face?", though I've looked into it enough to learn this is viewed to be less damaging than some other pore excavation methods I've used.) Overall: I love this product and will keep it as part of my routine until the next beauty wonder is revealed!
