I got the Panasonic Vitalift RF and omg, it's so amazing. I'm getting huge results. Any water based stuff will work great. I use either my The Ordinary serums or add a bit of water based essences and toners. It zaps my face so efficiently that I can still barely take level 2 out of 3 :)

I bought the aqua sonic for my nuface because of your recommendation about 5 months ago! It’s working great and I don’t worry about using a little too much and wasting it. I also tried a gel moisturizer from The Ordinary you recommended but I ran out so quickly! I tried a gel moisturizer from neutrogena but it made my face sting! 🐝 I’m sticking with the aqua sonic! Now after this review I may look into a more powerful microcurrent however for this 54 year old face… thanks Cassandra! 🦋

Perfect! Just what I needed.🎉🎉🎉

Just curious, does plain aloe Vera gel work for conducting electricity with a micro current device? Thanks 🦋

[@tainoaquarian]

Was also thinking about aloe (how refreshing would That treatment be?!). I need to know the same for what daily skincare/ serums are fine for which devices… 💭 A future video focus, let’s hope!

[@Kina_Fay]

I am wondering about this too. I can't find the Aquasonic in Canada for a good price.

Wondering the same thing!

Yes it works fine

The NuFace aqua gel activator is great. I hate having to wipe anything away, so I love I can leave it on as my hyaluronic acid step. I get the big pump bottle and it lasts a really long time for the price.

[@LV-cp7zg]

Thanks Cassandra! I use Aquasonic and mix in some water based “boosters” like glycerine, peptides or niacinamide. I never saw anyone else do it, so I don’t know if it compromises conductivity but it seems to work. My all time favorite is the Age-R.

[@mattsimon8352]

Thank you! This will save me a lot money and will get the most of my microcurrent and (hopefully soon!) my Amiro RF that I am saving up for

[@monikak9443]

I wish you had tested the actual conductivity of those gels. I have found that many of the gels marketed as microcurrent gels have little to no conductive properties.

[@cds7927]

This is the video I have been waiting for the last 3 years. I own the foreo bear but the serum is sooooo expensive but I didn´t know which gels were good and cheaper. Thank you so much!❤

Ugh that’s why people give up on these at-home devices! Thank youu!

[@stellarose7390]

I have Microcurrent and Radio frequency device and I use universal medical gel for ultrasound, radiofrequency, etc.. that cost me 4 bucks, it is 20 ounces and it works great.. I do not get why would anyone need those expensive gels. Even that Aquasonic ultrasound gel is too expensive, but still better than those 20-30 bucks little tubes.

[@skincaremakeup40]

Same,really cheap

[@raeanolson5221]

Where do you buy it

[@ST-fd6bi]

I use ultrasound gel and then wash it off. Works great.

[@enaom]

Ultrasound gels does not contain electrolytes (e.g. Sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium cloride, etc..) needed to make the gel conductive.

[@sarahsiebenlist]

Very good video! Thanks, Cassandra 😊 I do consider buying one of those microcurrent devices, so knowing which gel goes best with one of them is perfect timing 😊👍🏻 How often shall one use the microcurrent device in order to work properly on the skin? Any recommendations?

[@stlounsbury]

Thanks for the great review of these products. I’m in for the Aquasonic 100 because it’s very inexpensive and I want to use my own serums after treatment, not theirs 😇

[@helloydl]

I’m using ZIIP hola and I just love the device! Thank you for sharing! I’ve been looking for a substitute for the gel!

[@ZintaKirse-o8c]

Hey, I am also usin ZIIP device. I just wanted to know did you have any success replacing ZIIP gel? I bought medicube gel as substitute for Ziip gel, however I find Medicube is nowhere near as good as ZIIP gel. I need to use way more medicube gel, and it sinks in so quick on top of the fact that I’m already using it in much bigger amounts.

[@SilverCooky]

I have the same question. How does it compare to the ZIIP gels?

[@ZintaKirse-o8c]

@@SilverCooky hey, I have the answer now. So I have the ZIIP halo, I used up the ZIIP gel, thought about cheaper alternative, bought Medicube gel, also the simple hospital ultrasound gel, now I have my thoughts. Maybe medicube and hospital ultrasound gel works with other microcurrent devices, however they don’t work with ZIIP. Only ZIIP gel works with ZIIP. This is also what @Penn.smith.skincare explains in her KZbin latest video, that ZIIP gels are irreplaceable with other gels for ZIIP device. ZIIP gel is more expensive but it will last longer. It is thin and does not absorb so quick, and you only need several pumps for a session. Other brands gels are too thick for ZIIP device, they absorb way quicker, so you end up using way more gel (even if you dilute it with water spray) and it’s just too thick for ZIIP device, at least I did not feel the current going through. So in the end you will buy several Medicube gels and spend more money on the long run, while ZIIP gel is more expensive as one time purchase but it will last you wayyyyyy longer. So in my opinion ZIIP gel is way better and cheaper in the long run. Also as I said, I did not feel the current going through Medicube gel the same way I feel current going through ZIIP gel. Sorry, but I think Cassandra has not tried Medicube gel with ZIIP device, otherwise she would state it here.

[@MissElizabethLee]

is it possible if I just use a good old aloe gel? water based and non-irritating (For me at least)

[@guylainedesmarais3248]

Very interesting, but isn’t the Nebulyft radio frequency? I have the R2 and it’s not microcurrent at all. Also, there is no way I could sculpt facial fat with it? (I wish it would melt my double chin…)

[@traceytrotter9934]

[@JamieHartMusic]

Just wondering why the skin care ingredients are worth spending $$ on if we just wash the gel off after ?

[@elcintaskan2709]

Fantastic infos many thanks❤ what dounyou thing about GESKE?

[@RubyRobbins]

The Age-R Booster Gel from Medicube does not work with Ziip Halo or Foreo Bear etc. It dries more or less instantly leaving the equipment to drag across the skin while zapping you to a heart attack 😩 Upping the amount did not make it any better. I literally used half a tube on one treatment and it still didn’t work. So lots of money wasted as I ordered in bulk from Hong Kong. I even gave tubes to friends/relatives and they said the same - it’s useless.

[@eteri3230]

I found out the NuFace aqua gel dries my skin - I have used it for a year and decided to find other alternatives. After finding this video I want to try the AQUASONIC gel.

[@83yosita]

In a past video, you said that the Ordinary natural moisturizing factors could be used with microcurrent. Do you still think that? You didn't mention it in this video. Would you also use it with the myolift device? I don't have a fat face but I thought it will help me keep my face from sagging 😂

[@paolorpao570]

The only thing I haven’t understood is how to know if the gel is working properly. When it’s working correctly, do you feel small shocks, or do you feel that the device is working ?

[@ladyfashionsoul]

The new medicube age r booster pro has microcurrent and it says a gel isn’t necessary. Thoughts?

[@rosemaier3408]

I use the age r Booster pro with my normal Products (Hyaluron gel, Serums) - in my Opinion this device is working better than FOREO Bear (I use this since 2 years, before nuface (which brokes After one year). Ziip Halo I Like too and golden gel for using this Device is ok for me.

[@ladyfashionsoul]

@@rosemaier3408 I bought it and have been using for about two weeks. I love it! Been an avid NuFace user for the past few years and already like this device better too!

[@luv2travel2000]

😍 Thank you for this video! This review is *really* helpful. Before watching your video I had already purchased a clear ultrasound gel to use with my mini HIFU and Ziip. It is called Wavelength CL. Where I live, on amazon it costs less than the Aquasonic 100 and is clear. Hope it works as good as the Aquasonic 100. 🤞 ...I'm not sure how the basic ingredients compare. The Wavelength CL does have urea in it. 😍 When I can afford it, I definitely want to buy the Korean product you recommended! ❤❤❤ All the best!

[@joselinequiroz5979]

[@liresi8]

Great video and info! One question - can you use any of these gels with RF devices such as the NEWA or Nebulyft? Are there different needs for RF vs microcurrent?

[@summermom34]

Hey there! The Age - R Booster Pro ( 6 in 1 device ) which is inclusive of the Derma EMS Shot mode has replaced the DISCONTINUED Medicube EMS Microcurrent device. You can't get it from the supplier anymore. The new device looks NOTHING like the one you love. Amazon and Walmart, other retailers are offering, but everyone is reporting it is fake and breaks. So you better hold on to that sucker because you can't get them anymore.

[@mpinzon1]

Are the conductive gels interchangeable between micro-current and radio frequency? I have both the halo and nebulyft can I use the same gel?

[@christineregan4953]

Thanks really helpful.

So flipping hilarious because I have been using ultrasound gel for decades! As it works!

I followed your advice from this video where you "praised" the AGE-R Booster for ZIIP Halo and bought it. It isn't very good! It dries within a minute and the device gets stuck, there is no smooth gliding. It simply doesn't work. Have you actually tried it with the Ziip Halo?! I absolutely do NOT recommend it.

[@heatherreeve6636]

Is it a bad idea to do micro current and then red light therapy?

[@Mochabean77]

No it isn't bad. Since both Microcurrent & LED therapy have unique benefits, when used together, they can provide even more impressive results.😃 So it's safe to use them back to back, or you can alternate days.😊

[@ellieem4716]

I just got a Dermalactives Microcurrent facial toning device as an add on in my Ipsy, so I don't have high hopes and can't find much info on it, but the directions don't even mention conduction gels AT ALL!! 😡They only mention using "a skincare product that can be dissolved by water before using the device" and to "re-apply water-soluble skincare product regularly during use to avoid experiencing dryness or discomfort". In the step-by-step directions, they have 3 modes - 1. Cleansing, where you soak a cotton pad with a "lotion-based skin cleansing or exfoliating product" and insert it in this ring thing that secures it on top. It actually says to not use milky or GEL-like products here!!! This step is supposed to help unclog pores and remove dirt and residue. DOUBTFUL. 2. Micro-pat, which is supposed to stimulate and "loosen skin" (!?) to allow optimum absorption of moisturizing ingredients. It just says to apply moisturizing lotion over entire face (one with high-moisture content being best and cotton swab not needed for this and 3rd step). 3. Warm, used to "refresh" skin with fine vibrations and gentle microcurrents (although they are used in every step with low, med, or high intensity). Says to apply a sheet mask or facial moisturizing lotion (more of the one from step 2 or a different one? lol). Each step is to be done 4 mins each = 12 mins for "intensive treatment", recommended 3-4 times per week or just the "Cleansing Treatment" of doing just steps 1 and 3 = 8 mins 4-5 times per week. If anyone has tried this thing, please let me know, but needless to say, I'm not feeling too optimistic! Although I felt electricity on dry skin just trying it out and will get an ultrasound gel and at least test it with that for a while before deciding if it's useless or not. Thanks to anyone who actually read all this hahaha!!

[@lukastemberger]

I'm 40 and I've been using adapalene for about 3 years. It was working pretty well. In the last 6 months I moved up to Tretinoin and I'm getting way better results. But a month ago I got the Panasonic Vitalift RF and I'm seeing incredible changes. It feels like it's accelerating the effects of retinol. A month ago I had 3 forehead lines, now only two are visible and less than before. It's a really powerful device if you need something that will be more intense than Foreo.
