Thanks so much for sharing this well needed video. Appreciate it! ❤️

it is really good to get familiar with all those gels, because I use Bear regularly, but sometimes I just can't seem to find it at the moment I need it, but I use serum serum serum and I love its texture and how my skin feels after using it. Thank you

Just what I needed, thank you. Sick of those expensive serums and some are tacky haha... I sure am gonna try some of these recommended ones...

@kimiburch9464 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing all of these options, I'm excited to try different conducting gels. About your comment on the spray bottle that doesn't spray evenly.....I had the same issue with the nuface optimizing mist so I put in in a continuous spray bottle I got on amazon and it works great!

@beautybeyond40 2 года назад

great idea to get a continuous spray bottle!!!

@Kendralovesskincare 2 года назад

Love the continuous spray bottles from Amazon! I put vitamin water then since they have minerals and use it to rehydrate when doing my microcurrent.

I have had the bear for six months and love it. The serums are expensive. Your video helped a lot. Love the face spray. Thank you for these ideas. I use skincutical (sp) vitamin C followed by their hydraulic serum. I need to find something to use my bear as I also love using the UFO daily in the morning. I rather spend $$ on my serum and prescription retin-A. I want to get an LED mask next month. Add it to my routine.

Hi... hoping you can answer a few questions... 1. Have you tried Biossance Squalane + Copper Peptide Rapid Plumping Serum and La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water for sensitive skin with your microcurrent devices? 2. What are your thoughts on the DermaWand Pro? Thanks for your time!

@beautybeyond40 2 года назад

Hi! Thanks for watching. Unfortunately I don’t have experience with either of those products

@Kendralovesskincare 2 года назад

The Biossance has oil in it so while it's A great serum, not for microcurrent due to the high oil content. It is great for derma rolling though if you do that😊

@wmeiyen 2 года назад

Can I use Avene XeraCalm? It does contain mineral oil but I’ve never had conductivity issues with it. Also, if I’m using the conductive gloves, would I need to use a conductive gel?

@beautybeyond40 2 года назад

You would have to test that product with a device that has a conductivity indicator. With the gloves - no you just use water.

@fleur5869 2 года назад

How about EMS and Galvanic and RF devices, are they need also gels or serum for using them?

@beautybeyond40 2 года назад

Yes

@hoh_sweh5888 Год назад

I love serum serum serum but I want to try aloe. I use the Bear mini so there is no conductivity bar. I know you said the aloe burns your eyes but did you try it? Did your device show good conductivity? Thank you for the tips. Your videos helped me get a bit more familiar before I made my decision to purchase :))

@beautybeyond40 Год назад

Yes the aloe vera works! I just can’t use it (except to test it)

@dky4 2 года назад

Has anyone found an alternative gel that works with TriPollar VX? I've tried some alternatives like Vichy 89 hyaluronic serum or aloe vera gel which didn't work with the device (didn't heat up the electrodes) and the included gel isn't ideal for me because I'm very sensitive to fragrance.

@lisaprestidge4837 2 года назад

Le mieux calming gel is all I use with my devices

@ThyGirlnextdoor 2 года назад

You can use the microcurrent gels for the TriPollar. The fragrance is so strong in the gel that comes with it, ugh. Also, try adding a little sea salt to your aloe vera gel.

@debmurray2734 Год назад

Since glycerin is the primary ingredient in the Tripolar brand, I bought a 4 ounce bottle of Now vegetable glycerin from Amazon for $6. I do not notice any difference in how the two gels work.

@bluelavender7773 6 месяцев назад

What do you think about Vichy 89 Mineral Fortifying and Plumping Daily Booster? Could it be a good conductivity gel due to its content of 89% water that has 15 types of minerals in composition?... It has also Hyaluronic acid.

@beautybeyond40 6 месяцев назад

I haven't tried it, so I can't say. But you could try it with a Myolift device to see if it conducts the microcurrent. Sounds promising

@corvie408 Год назад

Hi , do I wash my face with plain water or facial cleanser after using the nuface gel? Thank you

@beautybeyond40 Год назад

whatever you want. I normally use a wet washcloth with water to wipe mine off.

@michelleadames5012 4 месяца назад

Hi i know this video is a year old but the face mists, is that like a hydrating toner? And can you use the same gels with radio frequency as well

@beautybeyond40 4 месяца назад

No - they are not toners. They are facial sprays that do different things (hydrate, improve conductivity, etc) but they are used to keep the gel wet so it conducts better. I have a separate video about RF gels as they are different from microcurrent since it's a heat-based modality that requires different type of gel.

@kerriw232 Год назад

Have you tried Pure Aloe Vera Gel and tested with your Myolift? Thanks

@lorettoleary7735 2 года назад

@@beautybeyond40 I've been using the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Fragrance-free Hydrating Body Gel Cream with my Nuface device. I saw that Angie Hot and Flashy was using it early on in her Nuface journey, ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--4iy66rWknQ.html )so I started using it instead of the Nuface Primer which I found too expensive and tacky. I purchase it at Harmon Face Values with a $5 coupon and you just can't beat the price. You have to spend $25 to use the $5.00 coupon. So, essentially you are getting 3 x 16 oz bottles for approximately $8.33 before tax. I prefer it to aloe vera gel because as stated in your excellent video, 1. aloe makes my eyes water. 2. I don't have to wash off the Neutrogena because its ingredients are good for the skin and it really does feel good. 3. I wash my face first, don't wipe it dry, apply the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Fragrance-free Hydrating Body Gel Cream to my wet face, (Hyaluronic Acid binds to water molecules so if you put it on wet skin it plumps the face, but if you put it on dry skin it pulls moisture out) 4. I can feel the microcurrent when I use this gel, but it doesn't hurt at all. 5. After I finish with the microcurrent treatment, I rub the remaining Neutrogena Hydro Boost Fragrance-free Hydrating Body Gel Cream into my face, neck, and decolletage, letting it settle for about 5-10 minutes, and then apply my skincare/ makeup over it. I can't speak to using it with the RF treatments. I wouldn't recommend it because of the heat. I hope all the above helps.

does plain vegtable glycerin conduct? I have the nuface so I can never tell if anything I am trying is conducting.

@@lisas7516 Yes I use glycerin and hyaluronic acid for my microcurrent. Just don't use anything oil based. Oil doesn't conduct electric current. I buy hyaluronic acid powder and make my own, so much cheaper. Just some water and a little glycerin and a teaspoon of the powder makes a big bottle, that you would pay about 25.00 for but this way costs you about 3.00.

But I have redness on certain parts of my face that I’ve had before using the ultrasound gel and looking into trying something more gentle to see if the one I’m currently using is keeping the redness there.
