Received my pore vacuum to test. Lovely purple and black unit with clear suction cups. Love the interchangable cups especially for the hard to reach placed along the nose. Downloaded the app but no matter what I try, phone data or wi-fi the app kept disconnecting. After trying everything I could think of to get the app to work I gave up and attempted the process without the help of the app. The few times I managed to actually see my skin on the app it was somewhat blurred and not an entirely clear picture. Not sure if its got something to do with my phone or the app.
Steamed my face before hand to open up the pores. Started on the lightest setting as I was warned the unit could bruise your skin if using too high a setting. Slowly glided the unit taking extra care not to stay in one spot for too long.
Lowest setting did clear a handful of pores but not as I was hoping. Changed to setting to a higher incriment and attempted again. This time a few more stubborn pores was removed but again not the bigger more stubborn ones. At this point I opted to wait a couple days before attempting again as I could see some parts turning red. Luckily I didn't have bruises the next day and I could see somewhat of a difference in the pores especially on the nose.
With repeated use I believe the unit us strong enough to give you a clearer skin. Will attempt again in a couple of days
The product does what it claims to do - visibly clear congested skin with ease. Very satisfying to watch blackheads and sebum being sucked out of the pores! Had some problems connecting my phone to the device initially, but easy to use once got the connections sorted. The suction nozzle is too large for some certain angles to create seal Eg bridge and tip or nose, but works well for most areas.
Tips: 1) Exfoliate and steam face prior to using device. 2) Start with the lowest setting then slowly increase suction strength only if required, the lowest setting is already very strong. 3) Keep gliding over skin and don’t stop in same spot for more than a couple of seconds, otherwise it can create bruising.
