Review: Here’s how the new Foreo Luna 3 performed after one week of use

Cleansing is both therapeutic and a chore — but most of the time, it’s the latter. There will be days when ensuring your skin is completely free of makeup is not a priority, but sleep is. So many tend to rush through their regimen just to get that extra free time. Well, listen up — Foreo may have a solution to that.

Introducing the newest addition to the Luna line, the Foreo Luna 3. This, including all of the brand’s previous devices, have been known to be some of the gentlest cleansing devices in the market. Now, the Luna 3 also holds the title of being the only beauty device that offers both an ultra-hygienic gentle cleanse and targeted, yet personalised, firming and toning facial massage. This cleansing device is 100% app-enabled and allows you to pick your most preferred ‘face workout’.

Other improved characteristics include 30% longer touchpoints for harder-to-reach places and an even deeper pore cleanse, 30% bigger brush head, 25% softer touchpoints, and 16 pulsation intensities that you can select according to your skin needs. If it’s even possible, the charging power has been improved, and you can now use the device up to 650 times per charge. Another fun feature? If you ever misplace your Foreo Luna 3 (within the vicinity of your room), there’s a ‘Find My Luna’ feature in the app.

Our verdict

Setting up and pairing the device to the app on our phone proved to be a simple task. Generally, cleansing should take at least one minute. That allows for any makeup residue or dirt to dislodge, and also allows the cleanser’s properties to take effect (paging Kylie Jenner). The Luna 3 is automatically timed for one minute and pulses during intervals to signal you when you should move on to cleansing another area of your face. Convenient, we say. Cleansing with the device strangely doesn’t feel as long as cleansing with your hands — it is that therapeutic.

Some of the massages available on the app. This one focuses on the eye area.

Meanwhile, this feature firms and sharpens your facial contours.

Here comes another fun feature that only the Luna 3 has — the toning and firming massage. The app allows you to choose the type of massage you want and voila! Firmer complexion. We have yet to see any results from the massage (it’s only been a week), but the massage regimen is really a treat we didn’t know we needed.

Our final thoughts? The Foreo Luna 3 has made cleansing fun again. Skin immediately feels smoother and softer after cleansing. It also gave us the green light to skip daily exfoliation (again, time savvy). Our skin also felt less bumpy with no signs of acne just yet. We now sleep better at night knowing our skin is free from any makeup residue, dirt, and excess sebum.

The Foreo Luna 3 is priced at RM920 and is now available at Sephora, Zalora, Hermo, and Lazada.
