I have the Foreo Bear and do my own routine. I love that it is a faster process and don’t mind using it every day. I had a Nuface device before and found it was too long of a process and stopped using it altogether.
Same, I have used both. I find the Foreo bear much easier to use. I enjoyed my Nuface but after having to replace it twice I gave a try to the Bear and I love it. It does not Shock Me and with one single charge I can use it over a full month. I do not use the app and I'll run it through two treatments so four minutes in total and super easy. It's not a hassle to push the button again if I want to turn it on again really?
I bought Foreo Bear a month ago! Very happy about it. Works great, very comfortable, cute look, doesn't shock my face and is very powerful. I see and feel the difference. Foreo has good deals for Mother's day, I am thinking of getting Luna for my mom!!!!
totally BEAR for me, more powerful, no anti shock! love the design! BEAR for me, more powerful, no anti shock! love the design! love the results after three weeks use. it can only get better!
I bought mini Bear purely for financial reasons (living in Europe, I don't have to count in the postage and custom tax from US) and after initial registration, I don't use the app anymore. Customer support actually confirmed you don't have to. Bear has a timer and I use two cycles, one for each side of my face. I definitely see the temporary improvement around my mouth which for me as a night teeth clencher is important.
I also bought the Nuface because of your recommendation and really enjoy it and I think has made a big difference. I also follow your skin care routine and I have seen great improvement! Thanks so much for all you do!
I bought a NuFace Trinity based on these videos, and I was actually really pleased with the results...while the device was working! I wanted to warn others who may read this comment that the device completely quit working after 18 months. For $450 I would expect a device to last longer than 18 months! Unfortunately, I'm now seeing more reviews of this product with similar issues. I especially liked the eye attachment, which seemed to noticeably lift my brows & lids. I would love to find another similar device that could provide the same results, but I will NEVER spend another dime on a NuFace product!
Mine has lasted at least 3 years, and is still just as good as it was when i bought it. I followed the suggestion to plug the charger into an outlet with surge protection. Also, I have never dropped it or removed the head (i just treat eyes and lips with the regular head, amd have good results).
My Nuface Mini lasted just under two years but the power button started giving me trouble many months ago and today it wouldn’t turn on at all 😢 I’m trying the Foreo Bear Mini. Just received it today. I found it easy to set up with good results from the first session. We’ll see how it performs in the long run 🤞🏼
I got the Bear because it has this anti-shock feature. Love it. It's powerful and after about couple of week slight changes became visible, I am very consistent with these treatments
How are you doing with the Bear now? I'm trying to decide between it and the Nuface and am leaning toward the Nuface. Have you experienced any facial fat loss like under the eyes or cheeks? Thank u!
@@HayGurlHay -Which did you decide to purchase? I’m a tad leery about purchasing the Nuface, because most people report it stops working after one year.
Hi Angie. Just watched your very informative video on the microcurrent devices. I have been using the Foreo Bear for about 3 months and have found that my facial wrinkles have increased, that is those already there have become more obvious, not decreased! I'm 65 years old and I'm beginning to think that, just like a workout in the gym, facial fat (which helps to plump out the skin) is replaced by muscle when you use facial devices like this, thus thining out the face. I thought it was my imagination at first and kept on using the device. But its not my imagination, my wrinkles look worse, although my hooded eyes have definitely lifted. Just thought I should leave a comment about this - maybe for older girls! I am not going to use my Foreo any more. I have enough wrinkles.
That’s not what happens in workouts… fat doesn’t “turn” into muscle, they are two completely different processes. You can build muscle and not lose any fat if you caloric intake is high. So obviously it not even close to what happens in the face. The currents are too low to actually build any muscle on your face lol. I don’t think your experience is not real but that is definitely not the reason why.
@@candykitty1 So since Foreo claims they are twice as strong as the Nuface, it may be that the microamps are over 500. When over 500, it depletes ATP (which is what boosts collagen and elastin production), so has the opposite intended effect and can age your skin. The eyebrow area doesn't have much fat so may be effective in that area. There are a few posts on reddit where ladies have noticed fat loss under the eyes, cheeks/cheekbone area after using the Bear for a few months.
@@nurita4 Yeah she does seems misinformed.. I think what's happening is that the microamps of the Bear are over 500 (they never disclose how many microamps it has, but claims to be twice as strong) which is depleting people's collagen and elastin. This won't be as noticeable in younger people though , who still have quite taught skin .
My under eye wrinkles increase with microcurrent. I’ve stopped using it here and only do my lower face and neck and my 11s. It has really helped my 11s
Foreo app is meant for other Foreo devices as well, thats why it says "treatments" You do need to download the app to synch the device and register it, in the begginning, otherwise you can just turn it on and use it. I use Aloe vera gel with my Bear, work great and is quite beneficial. The Bear is definitely more powerful, which saves time and give amazing results. But I guess it's all very personal :)
Thank you. I was undecided between the two Nuface or Bear, but after reading your reply about it being more powerful and you seeing results it’s the Foreo Bear 🐻 for me ! Thank you Yasmin.
It sounds like the Foreo Bear is more interested in having access to your smartphone (which is why the INSIST on you downloading their app) than anything else. They can sell the information they extract from your smart phone about your searches, activity, and in some cases, even your contact list, depending on what they have written in their legalease. Most dermatologists say the research shows that these microcurrent devices are doing more damage (by moving facial muscles, which is what Botox paralyzes) than they are doing good, and suggest that it's the daily use of hyaluronic acid that is making the skin on the cheeks appear more "plumped". Production of ATP could be the other good thing they are doing, but moving the facial muscles is far less beneficial (MRI studies have proven our muscles in our faces do NOT decrease as we age because we are using them daily, unlike the rest of our body). One dermatologist here on YT (Dr. Shah) has done this video on the Trinity, Bear, and another microcurrent device called the ZIIP (I think?).
Purchased the Nuface-. Nuface Mini packs a straight knock out punch. I see a significant result and I find the treatment soothes and lifts my morning face. Love it ❤
When I watch your videos comparing products my first thought always is, "You are your Father's Daughter", with your deep delving into the science of things. It must take days to read, research and gather all of the details. You definitely never skimp on why you believe the pros and cons! All of this is much appreciated, Angie. 👍🏻
I love them both, but I now use the Foreo because I got my Nuface wet and something shorted out. I was told the warrenty was voided, but they could give me a "deal" on a refurbished one. So I went out and bought the Foreo. So be careful. Don't leave it charging on the bathroom counter if someone might splash. P.S. I don't use the Foreo app. Once it's set up you just press the power button and hold to turn it on, and there you go.
Congratulations. I bought the NuFace and it sat in it's cradle for over a year. I am now retired and have begun using it everyday. It does make a difference and I have noticed a lift in my jowl area. I am now committed to using it religiously .
Your left mobile lid has exactly the same space than your right one with the Bear (16:31) while with the Nu Face it' s still a biiiiit smaller, even after the session with the atatchment. Bear achieves absolute symmetry.🧛🏻♀️🖤
I use the NuFace mini and I’ve been happy with it. It doesn’t have the attachment but I see a difference on my hooded eyes. I do wish I could see a difference on my jowls area.
Congratulations on 900K! I like the Nuface mini because it’s easier to hold during treatment and with sales you can get it for less than $200. The NuFace mini works very well to lift my hooded eyes, but I use across my eyebrows as as well (to target the upper part of the orbicularis oculi-my eye doctor approves) as well as upwards to target the frontalis muscles. I use an aloe Vera gel since I wash it off after I finish my treatment.
I got the bear because of the size and because it is quicker to use. So far I like it and can see a difference in my skin and eyes. I only used the app once because it is lame. I found some videos on UA-cam that were very helpful on some treatment options.
Being Swedish, im all for the Swedish high tech technology and love all the cute colors, so i decided to purchase the Foreo bear mini recently. But now need to get the gel cuz i got zapped using only aloe vera gel. Thx for the great review
I have the Bear. I didn’t have any issues downloading the app. I watched the app video a few times but now just do it on my own. I usually do two rounds- in total 5-6 minutes. On the highest setting I can feel a tingle near my hairline above my brows but never any pain. I really like it. It fits nicely in my hand, a charge lasts for at least a month. I’m thinking of getting the mini for my lip area- a comparison of the Bear mini to the Nuface prong attachment. I don’t have a Nuface to compare it to. I mainly bought the Bear because it takes so much less time to use and is cheaper. No regrets.
Hi Angie, I have been using Nuface for 2 years, because of your recommendation. Thank you. I bought Bear 3 month ago and I think the app is annoying, too. I love the top you're wearing. How lovely.
I like my NuFACE . Truth treatment NRGY micro current device is said to be more powerful. He encourage to used your serums then it will assist them in getting further into the skin.
I own both the NuFace and Truth Treatments NRGY devices. I use the Nuface ELE attachment first for my hooded eyes. Then I leave the Nuface device turned on, put it down, and use the 5-second beeps as a guide for using the NRGY device (has no beeping timer). I'd be interested for Angie's thoughts on the NRGY device. It definitely feels stronger than the Nuface, even at a level 2!
I think the TT would feel stronger because it combines microcurrent with Electronic Muscle Stimulation - I recently got a dual TENS and EMS device for a bum shoulder, and, unlike microcurrent, you'll definitely feel the EMS. Same for devices that combine with ultrasonic pulsations. I'm a myolift mini user, so no skin in the comparison.
Idk Angie. I paused your video with the hooded eye comparison, and even after using your two prong on the Nuface, I think your eyes looked significantly better with the Bear. Also you’ve been using Nuface for a long time, so I don’t think it was a fair comparison. Maybe you can try to test and compare using on someone who hasn’t used either product. I’m so confused. I really one one of these but I still feel I don’t have enough info. Or that this was a fair comparison . Ughh!!
My understanding is that you press the foreo to change the intensity. You had it at max/5 (indicated by 5 lights lit), but can be pressed multiple times to lower it. I don’t have a micro current device yet but looking into it. Appreciate the comparison.
Angie first congratulations on 900k🎉🎊I enjoyed your perspective on micro current. I love my Nuface🙌🏻I have done professional and at home micro current for over 3 decades in my skin care salons. I find The beauty industry keeps bringing new devices out and many are really not that beneficial. Micro current absolutely works and it’s not temporary when you use it properly and you have an excellent at home regime. It does work the 42 muscles of the face (43 with neck) Enjoyed 🙌🏻🍑Lisa
You are by far the most exacting researcher, kudos to you for checking every available nuance of the tools you talk about! I have the Nuface, but realized you have to take it out of its cradle and use it for it to work! 🥴. Love your videos and you. Hugs, Senior diva 🤗🥰
I just took a picture of the bear for 'proof of purchase' 😆 It is indeed very strong, I can only tolerate half strength for cheeks and minimum setting for forehead.
When I used the Nu Face around my eyes I would see red flashes when my eyes were closed. I returned it because my mom has severe macular degeneration and I didn’t want to do any that could possibly damage my eyes.
I use the Nu Face gell but the Foreo Bear device and I love it. I bought it for Christmas and leave it downstairs so that I can pick it up at any time.
Congratulations on 900k!!! You are awesome!!! I have been using the nuface for a year faithfully and not convinced I see much difference however it’s just part of the routine now. My dermatologist sells them at her office and several of her staff use them and wouldn’t be without. Thanks for all your great research
I wish I had seen your video before I purchased Bear! I had two bad experiences with Foreo. As you mentioned, you have to use app to register before using it, and no clear instructions. I bought Luna 3. It claimed having massage function, but no any demo. I only used it for cleaning. After I purchased bear and online chat to ask demos, I was directed to yourtube with some one that Foreo might sponsor for the demo. When I used level 2 for my forehead, I clearly feel the shocks from each moving. Nothing to see the gel is quite expensive.
I just got the NuFace+ with the ele attachment for 50% of thanks to you! I was wondering how you feel about the results after using the NuFace Fix vs the NuFace+ with the ele attachment. The Fix has won awards and gets great reviews for " instant results," inder eyes, not needing lip fillers, and crows feet appear smaller. What do you think? Maybe the much more expensive Nira laser for crows feet and under eyebrow lift. BTW, I'm 73 so maybe I should lower my expectations, haha. Thanks, I so very much appreciate your hard work and dedication to helping all of us.
Good morning! Great video! I have 4 micro current devices...yes 4 😋 NuFACE was my first and my favorite hands down. I also have the Myolift and MyoliftQT and I do also love those especially the Myolift mini. Sadly the bear I don’t notice any lifting 😥 and yes it does zap!! Out of all 4 nothing lifts my eyes like the NuFACE m, it’s so strange. I’ve done an entire routine with the Myolift mini and then I’ll use the NuFACE on just the eyes just to see if it would lift more and it does. It truly is strange but my eyes absolutely love the NuFACE. I do regret getting the bear because I don’t see ANY results. I may try it again but I’ve used several times and I always have to go behind and use one of my other 3 to see any results. Thank you for all your wonderful videos! I was surprised you didn’t include the Aduro mask when you made those wonderful LED therapy video, but all your specs and breakdown of the various masks were great! Have a wonderful day!! 😄
I saw another review comparing the NuFace and the Bear and the NuFace was liked much better. I think having to have an apt to make something work just isn’t my cup of tea. I have the NuFace and i do like it and I can see a difference with my eye area. You always give a very detailed review and I so appreciate the time you spend gathering the information. Thanks 😊
I bought the ZIIP before Nuface came out and it has the app with quite a few workouts available. I’ve been very happy with it but it does zap me in the forehead now and then ouch!
I’m sorry, but if an app is required to use the Foreo, I won’t even consider it. I’m very cautious with my phone and can’t stand that companies are doing this. No, just no.
I’m glad I’ve watched this I have brought foreo bear and been using for approx 2 months I did however buy the nu face fix and I do feel and see better from nu face fix so I’ll be now buying nu face and pass on the bear great video and now I’ve definatly decided after seeing your results Julie
Great video Angie. A year or two ago I got the NuFace Trinity. We have a small house with one bathroom and limited capacity for setting up a charging station. I found the NuFace clunky, hated the gel, which dried up quickly, and the constant beeping was maddening. A few months ago I got the Bear and the Mini, and I LOVE THEM. I looked at the app and forgot about it. I just use the Bear and the Mini most days. I LOVE the serum, it lasts. (I am a little put off by the price of it, however.) I can put it all over my face and barely reapply it again. Also I think the Bear is a 3.5 minute treatment, and the Mini is a 3 minute treatment. I use the sonic pulses, because frankly, it's the only thing that makes me feel like the device is doing something. I don't see any difference really, but using the NuFace, I was like, is this device doing anything other than beeping. I know the pulses don't matter, but I like them.
You're right to question when tech specs aren't provided, Angie. A study by Dr. Ngok Cheng conducted at the University of Louvain, Belgium concluded that the higher the microcurrent values, the less beneficial the effect. Anyone can google "can microcurrent do harm." I'm sticking to the Trinity.
My thoughts are that if it is twitching your skin like that it seems to be behaving more like a TENs unit than a microcurrent device. I wonder if that is why they are not open to telling you what the microcurrent is. It would be great if you could do a side by side of the NuFace and the Freeze Beauty device that Tammy on Tammy's Ageless Beauty demoed. She seemed really over the moon about that device.
Congratulations Angie on 900,000!! You deserve it! You were my gateway into UA-cam and anti aging and to be honest, still my absolute fave! Don’t stop what you’re doing. 🔥💥🥂🎉
Glad you always mention it’s only worth it if you will take the time to consistently use. If you are collecting foundation Friday requests I would love to see a review on the newly packaged and formulated? L’Oréal True Match super blendable liquid foundation that is on your HG list. Thanks!
@@AngieHotandFlashy can you try out Trinny London too please - sorry if I missed it. So many good reviews but am concerned about the colour match. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hi Angie, congratulations on your 900,000 subscribers! You deserve every one of them! Thanks for doing this video too. On my channel I kept saying I would get around to it and, although I have not done so yet, I have the same feelings about the Foreo that you do. The app was confusing, also, the unit quit working on me and I had to email the company to get a new unit. Congratulations again on another great video! I appreciate all you do for us.💝💝
Thanks so much Beth! I had the same experience with my Bear Mini... it's flakey and hardly ever works... I should send it back to them, it's an expensive paperweight! xo ~a.
Love the comparison! I just purchased and received ZIIP which I’m enjoying so far. The treatments on their app are great, follow along instructions and works wonderfully. Have you looked into this particular micro current device? I’d be curious to know your opinion. Thanks for all you do to help inform us!
Don't know if you found the microamps for the Foreo Bear but I've read that it is 335. Not sure if that is correct so if you did ever get the info, updating the description would be super helpful. Thanks!
Thank you for this! I was on the fence of which product to go with!! I really appreciate you doing your diligence in obtaining those specs for the comparison. Per the application: Because the amps are 20x higher in the Bear is probably why they have you do it for much less time than the Trinity device.
I hope to be able to purchase one of these type of devices eventually. My face would benefit from it. Thank you for sharing the info on these products. Take care
Sounds like the bear is just wanting to track things about people..... anything that you HAVE to use a linked app with, usually that’s the reason. Thank you, I have hooded eyes, I’m almost 39, and have just recently began anti aging and skin care. You’re my favorite to watch and have helped me SO much!!! ❤️
You just have to go on settings and change it to the device only. Only the very first time you use it you 'HAVE TO' use the app but is more for health and safety aspect and information. You don't have to use the app after that.
Brava Angie on your subscribers👏🏻🌷. I use the Nuface and really like it and appreciate the skincare data you share with us. I’m turning 65 this month and am treating myself to the led omnilux face mask thanks to your excellent video with all your data! Thank you!💕💕💕
Hi Angie! Could you do a new sunscreen dedicated video since summer is coming and we’ve had so much controversy with spf ratings? You are one of the only people I trust for sunscreen reviews!
Angie, two questions: 1) is there another gel that I can use with my NuFace? The NuFace gel tends to burn and dry out my skin, so I’m just using water when using my NF device; and 2) have you considered the Myolift? Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
I purchased the mini and it was a reasonable price around Thanksgiving 2020. I use it almost every day. I sometimes miss the other unit that has the attachments. This is the NuFACE mini I’m speaking about. Tammys ageless beauty has another device that’s even stronger than the one you did the comparison with. She’s 62. Look at her amazing face. I wonder if it has to do with that new device because she used to use the NuFACE Trinity as well. Now she’s bumped it up to this other device
Angie, thank you for all the research you do to delve into these products and their claims. I’ve had the Nuface trinity for several years and recently bought the Nuface mini so that I can do both sides of my face at the same time. Reduces the time it takes in half, and I think it keeps me doing it regularly, since I know it only takes such a few minutes. I love the top you have on!❤️
Great review!!! I tried the bear and as much as I tried... I just didn’t like it ... was actually painful on the forehead... I returned it to Macy’s ... will stick with my nuface !!! 😉 Congrats!!! 🍾🎈🎉
Hi Angie, That 900,000 subscribers day has finally arrived (streamers, ticker-tape parade)!! You've worked very hard for it! BTW, the Bear made your face more red (is that a good thing?) and your shower in the background is really nice (with super clean glass:). Anyway, happy trails!
Imma stick to NuFace. Why fix what isn't broken lol? Since using this device, people have complimented me on my skin. Congrats on 900k. Surprised you are not at 1mil. I think you will be there before the end of the year.
I will stick with the NuFace. Angie, I mention you to anyone who looks my way. It is fun to go to Walgreens and run into someone looking for the same drugstore makeup from your recommendation! See you next time! XO
Hi Angie-I loved the video. I had similar problems with the Foreo Bear. One thing I do like is that customer service has been very good, with the Foreo Bear, in answering my emails. However, the Bear is my favorite over the Myolyft Mini. I just can’t stand to get that out, with all the cords etc. (I like to do the “ electrocution” as I call it) watching TV. For the Foreo Bear.......The app is totally worthless. I hate it. If I see that lady put the micro current gel on her face one more time, I’m going to scream!!!! So, I just use the device on it’s own, but that is a pain too. You have to click once, which turns on the 5 dots of light, then you have to click two time (fast) to actually turn it on, when it touches your face. Sometimes it comes on without touching your face-I never know when. 😳. I do like the strength of the Bear though. The Myolyft does not seem nearly as strong on it’s highest setting. When I get the Bear to work though, I love the way it works. It does not hurt my forehead on 5 though. It feels weird on my forehead, but there is no pain. I must have fewer brain cells in that area, than you do! Ha I am getting the one (I must be a device junkie) that Tammy recommends on Tammy’s Ageless Beauty. If you haven’t seen it, it is The Truth Treatment Systems NRGY Current Device. It is on back order. It was $159.20 using Tammy’s 20% coupon. So, I figured, why not? The Bear, while being my current (no pun intended) favorite device, is a royal PAIN IN THE BUTT! I have to turn it on 20 times, it seems like, to get 1 complete treatment. If it would just turn on and stay on, until I turned it off, I would be happy, but nooooooo! So, I am getting Tammy’s favorite in hopes I will not have to buy another micro current device. I’m not sure “Big Balls” is going to work for me! I need nuclear strength current for my face at 70, that’s why I never purchased the Nuface. It does have a lot of followers though. BTW, a big congratulations on your achievement to 900,000 subscribers. That is just wonderful. Everyone loves Hot and Flashy!
Hello Angie, tried Nuface mini an returned it. Nufacce is only Galvanic an doesn't use any other wave lenghts.Wish you would review the Clareblend mini which use a combo of waves . I hear that it is alot more professional.
No need to waste money on the expensive gels when aloe gel (cheap) works like a charm!
That's what I do!! You just need a basic conducting gel to make the connection 😉
That’s what I use!
I use aloe gel too!
I love my NuFace! Have had it for over 5 years and when use it consistently I see positive results!
I have the Foreo Bear and do my own routine. I love that it is a faster process and don’t mind using it every day. I had a Nuface device before and found it was too long of a process and stopped using it altogether.
Do u also experience the strong current n the discomfort with the shock as she mentioned ? And the 800 A current point is bothersome .
They don't work if you don't use them so it sounds like you have the right one for you!
@@MsSilkyJuneja I did experience a shocking feeling at my hairline at the highest level so I turn the intensity down when working on my forehead.
Same, I have used both. I find the Foreo bear much easier to use. I enjoyed my Nuface but after having to replace it twice I gave a try to the Bear and I love it. It does not Shock Me and with one single charge I can use it over a full month. I do not use the app and I'll run it through two treatments so four minutes in total and super easy. It's not a hassle to push the button again if I want to turn it on again really?
I totally agree! And not having to charge it for three months is just great! Also: the bear has more power.
I bought Foreo Bear a month ago! Very happy about it. Works great, very comfortable, cute look, doesn't shock my face and is very powerful. I see and feel the difference. Foreo has good deals for Mother's day, I am thinking of getting Luna for my mom!!!!
OMG , yes, they had great UFO bundles~! free masks, I am planning to get the Bear as well precisely for the reasons you mentioned....
I changed from nuface to foreo and I am very happy with it. For me is Foreo the favorite.
totally BEAR for me, more powerful, no anti shock! love the design! BEAR for me, more powerful, no anti shock! love the design! love the results after three weeks use. it can only get better!
I just ordered Bear myself, they also have some amazing deals for Mothers day! So excited!
I bought mini Bear purely for financial reasons (living in Europe, I don't have to count in the postage and custom tax from US) and after initial registration, I don't use the app anymore. Customer support actually confirmed you don't have to. Bear has a timer and I use two cycles, one for each side of my face. I definitely see the temporary improvement around my mouth which for me as a night teeth clencher is important.
I also bought the Nuface because of your recommendation and really enjoy it and I think has made a big difference. I also follow your skin care routine and I have seen great improvement! Thanks so much for all you do!
I bought a NuFace Trinity based on these videos, and I was actually really pleased with the results...while the device was working! I wanted to warn others who may read this comment that the device completely quit working after 18 months. For $450 I would expect a device to last longer than 18 months! Unfortunately, I'm now seeing more reviews of this product with similar issues. I especially liked the eye attachment, which seemed to noticeably lift my brows & lids. I would love to find another similar device that could provide the same results, but I will NEVER spend another dime on a NuFace product!
Mine has lasted at least 3 years, and is still just as good as it was when i bought it. I followed the suggestion to plug the charger into an outlet with surge protection. Also, I have never dropped it or removed the head (i just treat eyes and lips with the regular head, amd have good results).
My Nuface Mini lasted just under two years but the power button started giving me trouble many months ago and today it wouldn’t turn on at all 😢 I’m trying the Foreo Bear Mini. Just received it today. I found it easy to set up with good results from the first session. We’ll see how it performs in the long run 🤞🏼
FOREO has never shocked me.
My Nuface stopped working at around 18 months. I have contacted the company, they basically said “get a new one” 😡
@@seyrangenc6172 wow... I have just bought it and am hesitating to exchange it with a ziip because of that :/

How are you doing with the Bear now? I'm trying to decide between it and the Nuface and am leaning toward the Nuface. Have you experienced any facial fat loss like under the eyes or cheeks? Thank u!
@@HayGurlHay -Which did you decide to purchase? I’m a tad leery about purchasing the Nuface, because most people report it stops working after one year.
Hi Angie. Just watched your very informative video on the microcurrent devices. I have been using the Foreo Bear for about 3 months and have found that my facial wrinkles have increased, that is those already there have become more obvious, not decreased! I'm 65 years old and I'm beginning to think that, just like a workout in the gym, facial fat (which helps to plump out the skin) is replaced by muscle when you use facial devices like this, thus thining out the face.

Just thought I should leave a comment about this - maybe for older girls! I am not going to use my Foreo any more. I have enough wrinkles.
Are you saying the microcurrent dissolves fat so making the wrinkles more prominent? But does it lift your face though?
That’s not what happens in workouts… fat doesn’t “turn” into muscle, they are two completely different processes. You can build muscle and not lose any fat if you caloric intake is high. So obviously it not even close to what happens in the face. The currents are too low to actually build any muscle on your face lol. I don’t think your experience is not real but that is definitely not the reason why.
@@candykitty1 So since Foreo claims they are twice as strong as the Nuface, it may be that the microamps are over 500. When over 500, it depletes ATP (which is what boosts collagen and elastin production), so has the opposite intended effect and can age your skin. The eyebrow area doesn't have much fat so may be effective in that area. There are a few posts on reddit where ladies have noticed fat loss under the eyes, cheeks/cheekbone area after using the Bear for a few months.
@@nurita4 Yeah she does seems misinformed.. I think what's happening is that the microamps of the Bear are over 500 (they never disclose how many microamps it has, but claims to be twice as strong) which is depleting people's collagen and elastin. This won't be as noticeable in younger people though , who still have quite taught skin .
My under eye wrinkles increase with microcurrent. I’ve stopped using it here and only do my lower face and neck and my 11s. It has really helped my 11s
To lift your jawline, you have to start from your collar bone which is the platysma muscle that pulls down the jaw.
Foreo app is meant for other Foreo devices as well, thats why it says "treatments" You do need to download the app to synch the device and register it, in the begginning, otherwise you can just turn it on and use it. I use Aloe vera gel with my Bear, work great and is quite beneficial. The Bear is definitely more powerful, which saves time and give amazing results. But I guess it's all very personal :)
Thank you. I was undecided between the two Nuface or Bear, but after reading your reply about it being more powerful and you seeing results it’s the Foreo Bear 🐻 for me ! Thank you Yasmin.
Thanks for sharing, I couldn't decide. 🐻🧸🐻🧸🐻🧸🐻🧸💓💓💓💓
It sounds like the Foreo Bear is more interested in having access to your smartphone (which is why the INSIST on you downloading their app) than anything else. They can sell the information they extract from your smart phone about your searches, activity, and in some cases, even your contact list, depending on what they have written in their legalease.
Most dermatologists say the research shows that these microcurrent devices are doing more damage (by moving facial muscles, which is what Botox paralyzes) than they are doing good, and suggest that it's the daily use of hyaluronic acid that is making the skin on the cheeks appear more "plumped". Production of ATP could be the other good thing they are doing, but moving the facial muscles is far less beneficial (MRI studies have proven our muscles in our faces do NOT decrease as we age because we are using them daily, unlike the rest of our body). One dermatologist here on YT (Dr. Shah) has done this video on the Trinity, Bear, and another microcurrent device called the ZIIP (I think?).
Purchased the Nuface-.
Nuface Mini packs a straight knock out punch. I see a significant result and I find the treatment soothes and lifts my morning face. Love it ❤
Bought the Bear, very happy with it so far!
Congratulations on 900k!!!
Thanks so much!!
When I watch your videos comparing products my first thought always is, "You are your Father's Daughter", with your deep delving into the science of things. It must take days to read, research and gather all of the details. You definitely never skimp on why you believe the pros and cons! All of this is much appreciated, Angie. 👍🏻
Love that!
I have thought the same exact thing!! Angie is the best!!❤️
Who is her father?
I love them both, but I now use the Foreo because I got my Nuface wet and something shorted out. I was told the warrenty was voided, but they could give me a "deal" on a refurbished one. So I went out and bought the Foreo. So be careful. Don't leave it charging on the bathroom counter if someone might splash. P.S. I don't use the Foreo app. Once it's set up you just press the power button and hold to turn it on, and there you go.
Naughty bathroom splashers!
Congratulations. I bought the NuFace and it sat in it's cradle for over a year. I am now retired and have begun using it everyday. It does make a difference and I have noticed a lift in my jowl area. I am now committed to using it religiously .
Awesome to hear it's working for you! Especially in the jowl area!!
@@AngieHotandFlashy but anything would work since I am 70 1/2.
Your left mobile lid has exactly the same space than your right one with the Bear (16:31) while with the Nu Face it' s still a biiiiit smaller, even after the session with the atatchment. Bear achieves absolute symmetry.🧛🏻♀️🖤
Hurray for you!! 900 K. That’s alota menopausal women all in one place. And I’m glad to be here.
I’m at least 10 years until menopause but still happy to be here 😬😉
Perfect comment, Deanne. At 57, I'm glad to be in such lovely company with my menopausal sisters, too. Angie's the best.
I'm happy you're here too!
@@carriestandridge4043 yay, I’m 57 as well! 😀
@@toybiz1 There's no stopping us - we're on a roll! And with Angie's help, we're prettier than ever! ;) Take care, girlfriend!
I use the NuFace mini and I’ve been happy with it. It doesn’t have the attachment but I see a difference on my hooded eyes. I do wish I could see a difference on my jowls area.
I love my Nuface and just purchased the led red light head. Now I love it even more!
Congratulations on 900K! I like the Nuface mini because it’s easier to hold during treatment and with sales you can get it for less than $200. The NuFace mini works very well to lift my hooded eyes, but I use across my eyebrows as as well (to target the upper part of the orbicularis oculi-my eye doctor approves) as well as upwards to target the frontalis muscles. I use an aloe Vera gel since I wash it off after I finish my treatment.
So yoi dont need the eye attachment thing?
@@britnysnyder4991 I don’t need it for my eyes.
i went with the Bear because of the complaints about NuFace not lasting as long. Lots of issues after the warranty ended.
I hope you do Nuface vs the Ziip sometime soon.
Yes please Ziip vs Nuface 🙃
I got the bear because of the size and because it is quicker to use. So far I like it and can see a difference in my skin and eyes. I only used the app once because it is lame. I found some videos on UA-cam that were very helpful on some treatment options.
Being Swedish, im all for the Swedish high tech technology and love all the cute colors, so i decided to purchase the Foreo bear mini recently. But now need to get the gel cuz i got zapped using only aloe vera gel. Thx for the great review
I have the Bear. I didn’t have any issues downloading the app. I watched the app video a few times but now just do it on my own. I usually do two rounds- in total 5-6 minutes. On the highest setting I can feel a tingle near my hairline above my brows but never any pain. I really like it. It fits nicely in my hand, a charge lasts for at least a month. I’m thinking of getting the mini for my lip area- a comparison of the Bear mini to the Nuface prong attachment. I don’t have a Nuface to compare it to. I mainly bought the Bear because it takes so much less time to use and is cheaper. No regrets.
We are going for the million Angie!!
OMG, finally cracked 900K!! It's a good day!
Hi Angie, I have been using Nuface for 2 years, because of your recommendation. Thank you. I bought Bear 3 month ago and I think the app is annoying, too. I love the top you're wearing. How lovely.
Hi. Which device do you prefer, the Nuface or the Foreo Bear?
@@mariabetancourt8935 Curious too .
Congrats on GMA. You were super !!!!!! Now you’ll be at 2 million in no time.........
Using a brush to apply the gel is so smart! I'm going to start using my NuFace again after watching this.
I like my NuFACE . Truth treatment NRGY micro current device is said to be more powerful. He encourage to used your serums then it will assist them in getting further into the skin.
I own both the NuFace and Truth Treatments NRGY devices. I use the Nuface ELE attachment first for my hooded eyes. Then I leave the Nuface device turned on, put it down, and use the 5-second beeps as a guide for using the NRGY device (has no beeping timer). I'd be interested for Angie's thoughts on the NRGY device. It definitely feels stronger than the Nuface, even at a level 2!
I think the TT would feel stronger because it combines microcurrent with Electronic Muscle Stimulation - I recently got a dual TENS and EMS device for a bum shoulder, and, unlike microcurrent, you'll definitely feel the EMS. Same for devices that combine with ultrasonic pulsations. I'm a myolift mini user, so no skin in the comparison.
Great comparison. I have the NuFace mini. Not a drastic change but I definitely look younger than my age !!
Idk Angie. I paused your video with the hooded eye comparison, and even after using your two prong on the Nuface, I think your eyes looked significantly better with the Bear.
Also you’ve been using Nuface for a long time, so I don’t think it was a fair comparison.
Maybe you can try to test and compare using on someone who hasn’t used either product.
I’m so confused. I really one one of these but I still feel I don’t have enough info. Or that this was a fair comparison . Ughh!!
I ordered my NuFace Mini this week. The shape of the NuFace looks easier to hang on to for sure than the Bear. Here's to BETTER TONED faces :-)
My understanding is that you press the foreo to change the intensity. You had it at max/5 (indicated by 5 lights lit), but can be pressed multiple times to lower it. I don’t have a micro current device yet but looking into it. Appreciate the comparison.
Angie first congratulations on 900k🎉🎊I enjoyed your perspective on micro current. I love my Nuface🙌🏻I have done professional and at home micro current for over 3 decades in my skin care salons. I find The beauty industry keeps bringing new devices out and many are really not that beneficial. Micro current absolutely works and it’s not temporary when you use it properly and you have an excellent at home regime. It does work the 42 muscles of the face (43 with neck)
Enjoyed 🙌🏻🍑Lisa
You are by far the most exacting researcher, kudos to you for checking every available nuance of the tools you talk about! I have the Nuface, but realized you have to take it out of its cradle and use it for it to work! 🥴. Love your videos and you. Hugs, Senior diva 🤗🥰
LOL! Yes, you're right!
I just took a picture of the bear for 'proof of purchase' 😆 It is indeed very strong, I can only tolerate half strength for cheeks and minimum setting for forehead.
When I used the Nu Face around my eyes I would see red flashes when my eyes were closed. I returned it because my mom has severe macular degeneration and I didn’t want to do any that could possibly damage my eyes.
agree
Hi Angie I use the Bear because it’s less time and I love it. But I do agree the Bear serum is way too expensive.
I use the Nu Face gell but the Foreo Bear device and I love it. I bought it for Christmas and leave it downstairs so that I can pick it up at any time.
Congratulations on 900k!!! You are awesome!!! I have been using the nuface for a year faithfully and not convinced I see much difference however it’s just part of the routine now. My dermatologist sells them at her office and several of her staff use them and wouldn’t be without. Thanks for all your great research
I wish I had seen your video before I purchased Bear! I had two bad experiences with Foreo. As you mentioned, you have to use app to register before using it, and no clear instructions. I bought Luna 3. It claimed having massage function, but no any demo. I only used it for cleaning. After I purchased bear and online chat to ask demos, I was directed to yourtube with some one that Foreo might sponsor for the demo. When I used level 2 for my forehead, I clearly feel the shocks from each moving. Nothing to see the gel is quite expensive.
I just got the NuFace+ with the ele attachment for 50% of thanks to you! I was wondering how you feel about the results after using the NuFace Fix vs the NuFace+ with the ele attachment. The Fix has won awards and gets great reviews for " instant results," inder eyes, not needing lip fillers, and crows feet appear smaller. What do you think? Maybe the much more expensive Nira laser for crows feet and under eyebrow lift. BTW, I'm 73 so maybe I should lower my expectations, haha. Thanks, I so very much appreciate your hard work and dedication to helping all of us.
Almost 1M subscribers congrats!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Good morning! Great video! I have 4 micro current devices...yes 4 😋 NuFACE was my first and my favorite hands down. I also have the Myolift and MyoliftQT and I do also love those especially the Myolift mini. Sadly the bear I don’t notice any lifting 😥 and yes it does zap!! Out of all 4 nothing lifts my eyes like the NuFACE m, it’s so strange. I’ve done an entire routine with the Myolift mini and then I’ll use the NuFACE on just the eyes just to see if it would lift more and it does. It truly is strange but my eyes absolutely love the NuFACE. I do regret getting the bear because I don’t see ANY results. I may try it again but I’ve used several times and I always have to go behind and use one of my other 3 to see any results.
Thank you for all your wonderful videos! I was surprised you didn’t include the Aduro mask when you made those wonderful LED therapy video, but all your specs and breakdown of the various masks were great!
Have a wonderful day!! 😄
Thanks for sharing Vanessa!
Angie, congratulations on your tv appearance this morning. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving lady! Well done!
Wow you had me at”looking for wave lengths!” Hahaha -Great video as usual - thanks Angie
I saw another review comparing the NuFace and the Bear and the NuFace was liked much better. I think having to have an apt to make something work just isn’t my cup of tea. I have the NuFace and i do like it and I can see a difference with my eye area. You always give a very detailed review and I so appreciate the time you spend gathering the information. Thanks 😊
@@mariabetancourt8935 yes that is the attachment I do use on my eyes. It just makes this faster!
I bought the ZIIP before Nuface came out and it has the app with quite a few workouts available. I’ve been very happy with it but it does zap me in the forehead now and then ouch!
I am so happy for you! Your hard work is paying off, the million will come in the blink of an eye😊
I’m sorry, but if an app is required to use the Foreo, I won’t even consider it. I’m very cautious with my phone and can’t stand that companies are doing this. No, just no.
supposedly the app is not required other than the first set up. You can use it without the app.
You are so right. I have and love FOREO products but the app acts up ALL THE TIME. I constantly have to email the company to reset it. It’s stressful
Agree
You do not need an app to use it. Simply turn it on without an app. It works just fine
Hi Angie, I feel that your faceshape is nicer with the Bear. More V with plump cheeks... you look much younger and refreshed!
Congrats on the 900k!!!
I’m glad I’ve watched this I have brought foreo bear and been using for approx 2 months I did however buy the nu face fix and I do feel and see better from nu face fix so I’ll be now buying nu face and pass on the bear great video and now I’ve definatly decided after seeing your results
Julie
This was very valuable information for me since I just started using Nuface and have Bell’s Palsy and it’s been so helpful
Angie congratulations on 900,000 subscribers. So happy for you. You are my favorite. Blessings to you.
Great video Angie. A year or two ago I got the NuFace Trinity. We have a small house with one bathroom and limited capacity for setting up a charging station. I found the NuFace clunky, hated the gel, which dried up quickly, and the constant beeping was maddening. A few months ago I got the Bear and the Mini, and I LOVE THEM. I looked at the app and forgot about it. I just use the Bear and the Mini most days. I LOVE the serum, it lasts. (I am a little put off by the price of it, however.) I can put it all over my face and barely reapply it again. Also I think the Bear is a 3.5 minute treatment, and the Mini is a 3 minute treatment. I use the sonic pulses, because frankly, it's the only thing that makes me feel like the device is doing something. I don't see any difference really, but using the NuFace, I was like, is this device doing anything other than beeping. I know the pulses don't matter, but I like them.
I agree on the pulses Susan, I can't tell if the Bear is delivering the microcurrent unless I have the pulses on.
You're right to question when tech specs aren't provided, Angie. A study by Dr. Ngok Cheng conducted at the University of Louvain, Belgium concluded that the higher the microcurrent values, the less beneficial the effect. Anyone can google "can microcurrent do harm." I'm sticking to the Trinity.
You have 5 levels. You can adjust.
I would like to try the bear! I have the nuface mini and it does, well, nothing for me. And I’ve been using it like a mad woman for years 🙄
It's definitely worth a try...
My thoughts are that if it is twitching your skin like that it seems to be behaving more like a TENs unit than a microcurrent device. I wonder if that is why they are not open to telling you what the microcurrent is. It would be great if you could do a side by side of the NuFace and the Freeze Beauty device that Tammy on Tammy's Ageless Beauty demoed. She seemed really over the moon about that device.
Congratulations Angie on 900,000!! You deserve it! You were my gateway into UA-cam and anti aging and to be honest, still my absolute fave! Don’t stop what you’re doing. 🔥💥🥂🎉
Happy to be your gateway into the wonderful world of UA-cam!!
Glad you always mention it’s only worth it if you will take the time to consistently use.
If you are collecting foundation Friday requests I would love to see a review on the newly packaged and formulated? L’Oréal True Match super blendable liquid foundation that is on your HG list.
Thanks!
Definitely want to check out the new True Match!
@@AngieHotandFlashy can you try out Trinny London too please - sorry if I missed it. So many good reviews but am concerned about the colour match. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hi Angie, congratulations on your 900,000 subscribers! You deserve every one of them!
Thanks for doing this video too. On my channel I kept saying I would get around to it and, although I have not done so yet, I have the same feelings about the Foreo that you do. The app was confusing, also, the unit quit working on me and I had to email the company to get a new unit. Congratulations again on another great video! I appreciate all you do for us.💝💝
Thanks so much Beth! I had the same experience with my Bear Mini... it's flakey and hardly ever works... I should send it back to them, it's an expensive paperweight! xo ~a.
Love the comparison! I just purchased and received ZIIP which I’m enjoying so far. The treatments on their app are great, follow along instructions and works wonderfully. Have you looked into this particular micro current device? I’d be curious to know your opinion. Thanks for all you do to help inform us!
I like the truth treatment micro-current device
Don't know if you found the microamps for the Foreo Bear but I've read that it is 335. Not sure if that is correct so if you did ever get the info, updating the description would be super helpful. Thanks!
Thank you for this! I was on the fence of which product to go with!! I really appreciate you doing your diligence in obtaining those specs for the comparison. Per the application: Because the amps are 20x higher in the Bear is probably why they have you do it for much less time than the Trinity device.
Angie- i have lots of wrinkles in my forehead and some are above my eyebrows! The Nuface would help with those wrinkles? Thanks Ladena Dubler
I hope to be able to purchase one of these type of devices eventually. My face would benefit from it. Thank you for sharing the info on these products. Take care
Sounds like the bear is just wanting to track things about people..... anything that you HAVE to use a linked app with, usually that’s the reason. Thank you, I have hooded eyes, I’m almost 39, and have just recently began anti aging and skin care. You’re my favorite to watch and have helped me SO much!!! ❤️
No more privacy... :-(
If you’re posting this from a smart phone- it’s too late to worry about that ;-)
YES!! That alone ensures I won’t be buying it. I need another app like I need another hole in my head! 🙄
You just have to go on settings and change it to the device only. Only the very first time you use it you 'HAVE TO' use the app but is more for health and safety aspect and information. You don't have to use the app after that.
It's to cut down on counterfeit products, which is a huge problem for companies and consumers alike these days.
Angie you were great on GMA!!! Looked flawless too.
I just purchased the Truth Treatments NRGY Current device. I hope you do a review on that some day. :)
Congrats on 900k 😀👍🏻🥳
Thank you!
Brava Angie on your subscribers👏🏻🌷. I use the Nuface and really like it and appreciate the skincare data you share with us. I’m turning 65 this month and am treating myself to the led omnilux face mask thanks to your excellent video with all your data! Thank you!💕💕💕
Thank you Sherry! Happy Birthday and I hope you love the mask!!
Hi Angie! Could you do a new sunscreen dedicated video since summer is coming and we’ve had so much controversy with spf ratings? You are one of the only people I trust for sunscreen reviews!
I’m doing my NuFace morning routine and watching Angies video about NuFace 😆
Love that!
Hi Angie..just saw you on GMA !!!! Congratulations. I'm always excited when I see you representing all of us! xoxo patti 🌸🍃
Congratulations on 900K, you deserve that and so much more. You have helped me immensely!! Can't wait to watch you on GMA tomorrow!!
Congratulations Angie! You are much loved and appreciated!❤️
She sure is!!!💞
Angie, two questions: 1) is there another gel that I can use with my NuFace? The NuFace gel tends to burn and dry out my skin, so I’m just using water when using my NF device; and 2) have you considered the Myolift? Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
Try the Target Up&Up 97.7% pure aloe gel, and no I haven't considered the Myolift.
I purchased the mini and it was a reasonable price around Thanksgiving 2020. I use it almost every day. I sometimes miss the other unit that has the attachments. This is the NuFACE mini I’m speaking about. Tammys ageless beauty has another device that’s even stronger than the one you did the comparison with. She’s 62. Look at her amazing face. I wonder if it has to do with that new device because she used to use the NuFACE Trinity as well. Now she’s bumped it up to this other device
Angie, thank you for all the research you do to delve into these products and their claims. I’ve had the Nuface trinity for several years and recently bought the Nuface mini so that I can do both sides of my face at the same time. Reduces the time it takes in half, and I think it keeps me doing it regularly, since I know it only takes such a few minutes. I love the top you have on!❤️
Do you think the mini works as well?
@@britnysnyder4991 yes I do. The only difference is that you cannot add attachments to the mini.
Congratulations Angie on. 900,000 subscribers 👍🏼. Woohoo 🥳
Great review!!! I tried the bear and as much as I tried... I just didn’t like it ... was actually painful on the forehead... I returned it to Macy’s ... will stick with my nuface !!! 😉 Congrats!!! 🍾🎈🎉
The Foreo has 3 different workouts. The app you show on your phone looks different than what I have.
Hi Angie, That 900,000 subscribers day has finally arrived (streamers, ticker-tape parade)!! You've worked very hard for it! BTW, the Bear made your face more red (is that a good thing?) and your shower in the background is really nice (with super clean glass:). Anyway, happy trails!
Thank you so much!! Squeegee the glass after every shower!
Woot....900K subscribers! Congrats Angie -- you *are* my holy grail!
Thank you Libby!
Holy 900K subscribers! Congratulations Angie!
Thanks so much Trish!!
Congrats Angie.I remember when it was 60K users. Keep up the great work!!!
Congratulations!!! Just watched you on GMA. I am so happy for you!!!!
Imma stick to NuFace. Why fix what isn't broken lol? Since using this device, people have complimented me on my skin. Congrats on 900k. Surprised you are not at 1mil. I think you will be there before the end of the year.
I will stick with the NuFace. Angie, I mention you to anyone who looks my way. It is fun to go to Walgreens and run into someone looking for the same drugstore makeup from your recommendation! See you next time! XO
That's so cool!
Do you think the Nuface mini is as efficient as the regular one? Many thanks Angie
Hi Angie-I loved the video. I had similar problems with the Foreo Bear. One thing I do like is that customer service has been very good, with the Foreo Bear, in answering my emails. However, the Bear is my favorite over the Myolyft Mini. I just can’t stand to get that out, with all the cords etc. (I like to do the “ electrocution” as I call it) watching TV. For the Foreo Bear.......The app is totally worthless. I hate it. If I see that lady put the micro current gel on her face one more time, I’m going to scream!!!! So, I just use the device on it’s own, but that is a pain too. You have to click once, which turns on the 5 dots of light, then you have to click two time (fast) to actually turn it on, when it touches your face. Sometimes it comes on without touching your face-I never know when. 😳. I do like the strength of the Bear though. The Myolyft does not seem nearly as strong on it’s highest setting. When I get the Bear to work though, I love the way it works. It does not hurt my forehead on 5 though. It feels weird on my forehead, but there is no pain. I must have fewer brain cells in that area, than you do! Ha I am getting the one (I must be a device junkie) that Tammy recommends on Tammy’s Ageless Beauty. If you haven’t seen it, it is The Truth Treatment Systems NRGY Current Device. It is on back order. It was $159.20 using Tammy’s 20% coupon. So, I figured, why not? The Bear, while being my current (no pun intended) favorite device, is a royal PAIN IN THE BUTT! I have to turn it on 20 times, it seems like, to get 1 complete treatment. If it would just turn on and stay on, until I turned it off, I would be happy, but nooooooo! So, I am getting Tammy’s favorite in hopes I will not have to buy another micro current device. I’m not sure “Big Balls” is going to work for me! I need nuclear strength current for my face at 70, that’s why I never purchased the Nuface. It does have a lot of followers though. BTW, a big congratulations on your achievement to 900,000 subscribers. That is just wonderful. Everyone loves Hot and Flashy!
You're cracking me up! I've got to try the truth treatments device!
In the video- didn’t see a difference with the efficacy of the devices.
Hello Angie, tried Nuface mini an
returned it. Nufacce is only Galvanic an doesn't use any other wave lenghts.Wish you would review the Clareblend mini
which use a combo of waves .
I hear that it is alot more professional.
