Since we have spent this year living a much slower and relaxed lifestyle, I’ve noticed that I’ve spent a lot of time on self care. In these times of uncertainty, self care is so important for our physical, emotional and mental needs and is often overlooked. Taking just 10 minutes to focus on you makes the world of difference to how you feel. I’ve been making sure that I follow my own personal self care steps and I have been totally enjoying my ‘me’ time. One of the steps that I have made sure I am doing is to sit back and relax with a face mask and whilst some only take 10 minutes, I was always finding excuses as to why I didn’t have those ten minutes spare. There has been somewhat of a revelation now that I have found those ten minutes and that comes in the form of the very exciting Foreo UFO 2 Smart Mask.

I’ve had my eye on the Foreo UFO 2 Smart Mask for sometime and as I have been a loyal lover of the Foreo Luna and Issa toothbrush for many years, I know that whatever I have had from the brand has worked and also worked effectively. I’ve been extremely lucky to have been sent this as it is an expensive tool at £249 for the device and £10 per box of masks but after using it a lot, I would purchase in a heartbeat. The Foreo UFO 2 has been described as being  “the world’s first smart mask treatment to offer spa-level facial treatments in just 90 seconds, combining LED light therapy with cyro-therapy, thermo-therapy and T-Sonic pulsations”. Certainly sounds very intriguing and has had a lot of hype online.

With this device, modern technology is certainly prevalent as it is Bluetooth enabled and links up to your phone to provide a spa like treatment. I had seen the UFO all over social media but I was a little confused at first because the front of the UFO with it’s space age looking gold disc doesn’t really give the game away of how to use it. It’s only when you look at the reverse of the device, you find the metal plate and securing ring for the individual sheet masks. Each mask is conveniently shaped for a perfect fit on the device as well as making it easy to remove and there are several options in terms of masks that you can use as well as masks that target AM and PM needs with high quality ingredients.

After you have linked your device to the mobile app and press start, you can scan the barcode on the back of the mask that you have chosen and it will start the masking session with the coordinated pulsations and light therapies that work best with the mask. Once the treatment starts, the app plays spa music and I have linked my Alexa to my phone to really enjoy this. The app will show how to move the device across your face and where to target at certain times, whilst the device itself will warm up, cool down or run through blue,red or green light therapy and pulsations. It’s a very clever device especially as each treatment takes just 90 seconds and feels like a full spa like facial.

Thermotherapy is known for softening the skin, whilst Cryotherapy will lift and firm. The T-Sonic pulsations help promote circulation and blood flow which leads to a brighter and healthier looking complexion. The different lights within the LED Light therapy will help boost collagen and promote anti ageing (green), calming and soothing inflamation (red) and kills off acne causing bacteria (blue).

After using the Foreo UFO 2 Smart Mask for the last few weeks, I must admit that at first I didn’t think it would work but now, I actually can tell when I’ve not used it. Each routine has been really working my skin to fulfill its best potential, with the serum essence of the mask being absorbed straight into the skin. The masking experience is really unique and I can really see a change. In the followings morning after use, I find my skin looking really plump and healthy, fresh and hydrated. The serum on the mask is slightly excessive so I do like to get as much on my skin whilst masking and then add the remaining amount after the treatment is complete. Once the treatment is over, you can simply remove the mask and dispose, and rinse the device and sit it back on it’s own little stand on your bathroom shelf. It’s also worth noting that the Foreo UFO 2 is also waterproof just like the rest of the Foreo family.
