Rodan + Fields Pore Cleansing MD System

The thought of literally sucking all the gunk out of our pores is more satisfying than popping a pimple. The Pore Prep Solution is applied first to break down stubborn oil, dead skin cells and debris.

Then targeted tips give you the perfect combination of pressure and suction to extract gunk and blackheads for visibly minimized pores. WARNING: This tool is addictive! Remember, everything in moderation.

  1. Not much into devices. I always worry that they will malfunction and suck your skin off (fear started when a home leg waxing went wrong and really did rip off some skin)-ouch!Cue screaming and uncontrollable shivers. Yep. Still scared.

  2. I’ve got a Foreo. Couldn’t live without it. No idea what model it is. It’s pink (of course!) and I’ve had it for quite a while. I’d love a Foreo UFO but I haven’t got the funds for one at the moment. I really need a new shaver.

  3. Want to try new Foreo microcurrent device =0
    So far have seen only tacky looking pink one…hope they bring it out in another colour (black! Or dark blue! Or white even)…otherwise, not interested

  4. Ha ha true! Nice for those who were on the receiving end of those billions! None for us but I know of several people who own businesses that live on our road would be swimming in it right now – so much so that it appears the Thai people up the road who own a local Thai restaurant (which still offers takeaway God love them) have even managed to disappear for a holiday somewhere! I think they must have staff working the takeaway side of things while they’re away. Lucky them!! Meanwhile my hubby is slogging away at work from home and we are all doing the ‘stay at home’ thing as per the gov’t’s request. We played a fun game of cards last night.

  5. Its crazy how some of these devices used to be so so expensive when they first came out and now theyre a lot more reduced in price. Im not saying theyre so cheap but they’ve definitely reduced

  6. Oh yes to all gadgets invented! I am using daily: ForeoLuna cleansing device, NuFace microcurrent (similar to Nova face fit bug I think), NuFace LED attachment for healing/anti-ageing light therapy (seems to be doing something!), monthly: IPL (omg, lifesaver!!), hair straightener and dryer.

    They are all fun and love them. Not materialistic…but love playing with toys.
