I received this product for free from Foreo in exchange for an honest review.
If you read my recent Asian skincare post, you’ll remember that I’m really into skincare right now. Over the years, I’ve vacillated between not caring about my skin at all and caring about it obsessively, and obviously right now I’m in an obsessive phase.
I’ve been trying out new products and adding and subtracting things from my skincare routine like a madwoman trying to figure out the *perfect* combination to achieve healthy skin. My goals are to eliminate breakouts, hydrate my skin, and fade old acne scars (I have a ton) so that I can feel confident without makeup.
Thinking back to when my skin was its clearest, I remember using benzoyl peroxide daily, along with the exfoliating St. Ives Apricot Scrub. Once I started reading about skincare, I learned that St. Ives isn’t necessarily a great option because the exfoliating particles are unevenly sized and very rough, so I stopped using it. But part of me feels like the physical exfoliation was a big part of what was keeping my skin clear.
So when I had the opportunity to try out a product from Foreo, I picked out the Luna 2 Skincare Brush (for normal skin), thinking it would be a way to get back into physical exfoliation, but more gently this time.
Aside from the normal skin version (pink) that I picked, Foreo also offers versions for combination skin (blue), oily skin (aqua), and sensitive skin (purple), which differ in the size and softness of the silicone “bristles”.
Although I started using the Foreo Luna 2 in the midst of tinkering with other things in my routine, I am really enjoying it and believe it’s improving my skin. After an initial charge, it’s been hanging out in my shower for a few weeks and is still going strong. I’ve read online reviews of people saying that one charge lasts for months – hope that’s true!
These are not true to color as they were taken under fluorescent lighting.
The device powers on using the middle button, and using the plus and minus buttons, you can adjust the intensity of the vibrations. It vibrates in four periods of 30 seconds so you know when to switch to another part of your face, and although it’s recommended that you stick to just two minutes of use, it keeps going after the four periods are up in case you have more work to do. I use it for 30 seconds each on my cheeks, chin, and nose area, and then I keep going so I can get my forehead as well.
On the back, there is a different texture of silicone which is supposedly for anti-aging, but I haven’t tried that function yet.
I just foam up my cleanser with my hands and apply to my face and then the brush before powering it on and getting started. In a way, it actually seems gentler than the usual way I wash my face by kind of scrubbing with my fingertips, and my face feels super smooth and clean afterward.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this product. It’s helped clear stubborn clogged pores on my face and it forces me to be a bit gentler with my skin. Plus, it’s cute and fun to use! Although it does look a bit like a vibrator…
Looks like a nice product, I have always been wanting to buy an electronic scrub myself.

This product looks amazing! I am actually always looking for tips for exfoliating and keeping my skin healthy and smooth. I definitely will try to check out this product!
This product looks amazing and I would definately love to try it. My face is so sensitive and this would be perfect. I also have used st ives apricot and its too rough on my face as well.
I feel that I must have this, oddly I want it for my upper arms which for some reason now have decided to be the locus of blemishes,
I can tell just by looking at it, that my face would love it. Thanks for sharing!
I think that brush looks like it would help me with my dry skin. I’ve never seen that before. Thanks.
This skincare brush looks very useful. Thanks for sharing!
I have never heard of this product before, but think it could really help my pores.
Haha – I was thinking vibrator thoughts too! Ok, aside from that, the anti-aging feature appeals to me and my ancient skin. The other features appeal too. 🙂
I am going to have to try this one of these days, it sounds interesting!
I have never seen a brush like this. Exfoliating is really important and looks like it gets the job done
I could use a good exfoliation method since I have heard the small particles in scrubs are bad for the environment. This brush looks like a great solution.
I used to use St Ives apricot scrub too but haven’t in a while. I’d love to try this.
I have never heard of it but using it in the shower makes so much more sense and knowing that it last a while it great! Being gentler than using your fingers and gets it smooth and soft nice. Thank you for the fabulous review!
I haven’t heard of this one! I’d love to try it to see if it helped with clogged pores.
I have heard many good things about that brush; would love one one day. Glad you liked it and it worked for you.
What a unique design! It also looks very gentle, yet effective to cleanse one’s skin
I would love to try this! I have very sensitive skin so I like that it’s gentle.
Looks so cool! I have never tried anything like this before. Thanks for the review
I use a wash cloth right now but it is too harsh for my skin. I would love to try this!
Many years ago, I did try a skincare brush and I did not like it, made my face irritated. I would be interested in trying the Foreo Luna 2, technology has improved and it may fell great! 🙂
I would definitely give this a whirl. I’ve seen products that literally poke or scrape your face. This looks like it’s a bit gentler on your skin, but still gets the job done.
This looks like a great device to get my skin clean and feeling rejuvenated. I think it is cute and it does look fun to use!
I’ve never tried it before, but it looks like something I would like! Plus I like that they have one specifically for oily skin.
It looks amazing, ill have to show my mom this.
Oh this looks amazing! I’ve heard about the original Luna so this one looks even better. great review
What a neat little handheld device! I need a better way to exfoliate my skin, thanks for the suggestion
This looks like such a cool thing. I know it would help me in the make up area.
I have never heard of anything like this. It looks interesting and sounds like it is helpful. I like that it is a pretty pink, too!
This is the first time that I heard this, but it looks like an interesting product.
My wife thinks that it looks awesome. She said she wouldn’t mind trying it. I just hope we had one product like that or that here. Unfortunately, we live way too far to the malls and stores to even see if they have that. My wife said anything that unclog pores, she’s in.
This sounds like an amazing product. Can’t wait to check it out as I am really irritated with my clogged pores on noes these days!
I so have to try this. My combination skin goes mental during the summer. Thanks for the heads up.
I want to try this. I have a lot of clogged pores on my nose and chin. After a few days, I end up with a blemish! Ugh!
I have never tried this brush. I think this is perfect for someone just getting into taking better care of their skin. its not to complicated to use.
Im going to give it a try,i don’t break out a lot but i do feel that my face tends to dry out a lot .The most that i usually use on my face is a face cloth and regular soap.
I’ve got the Foreo Luna Mini at home and I love it! I think it’s much better than sonic brushes as you don’t need to replace the brush and it doesn’t get dirty 🙂
I like that it’s helped unclog pores. I wouldn’t mind getting my daughter this…her skin is starting to give her some challenges.
Though I have heard a lot about it, I have never used one such skin care product before. Foreo Luna 2 looks amazing & I love that it is so easy to use & the results are surely going to be great as well. I would love to give this a try.
I think this is a very interesting addition to any skin care routine. I’m sure it helps to stimulate your skin and keep it young.
I didn’t even know that something like that exists. My skin is very bad lately so maybe I will try it! Thank’s for sharing!
I have heard of the Foreo but have never used it myself. I have a magnitone that I will be using soon!
Oh wow I’ve seen this a lot in stores, both in New York and Copenhagen. I’ve always wanted to try it and the matching toothbrush! Thanks for sharing. I might go and treat myself to one of these 😍
I saw these on tv and thought they were cute! I use something similar but it is more brush form and I love it! This would be great for travel.
Wow, this brush looks nice! Thanks for the review!
LOL yeah it does kind of look like a vibrator. I saw these yesterday on a daytime talk show and I would love to try one!
I have a small little version of this that you just run across your skin like a cotton pad. I find those little spikes are great for lifting and remaining dirt a face wash on its own won’t get. Your skin ends up feeling SO smooth and soft, I wonder in the long run though, if it is too harsh on the delicate skin of our face?
I have never used one but this looks like an amazing product. Would definitely give it a try. Thanks for sharing!
I don’t have any idea into this, My wife should know about this.
I have never tried a skin care brush but i would be willing to trythe Foreo Luna Brush
That is really cool. I’d be interested to see how it works on my face.
I have never tried a skincare brush before. This looks pretty nice though and sounds like it could be beneficial. I need to spend more time on my precious skin!
I have something a bit similar. I’m always amazed at how clean my face feels after using it.
That looks so great! I need one of these. I think it would be great to have. Looks like it would work great too.
This one is really cool. Facial brush is something new to me and great to meet this Luna. Hope I could one *_*
I’ve never seen this before but now that I have- I want one! Looks like a great skin care tool!
Totally agree this looks like an amazing product. I first saw this at CES 2016 and definitely would love to try it.
I have one of the original mini ones of these and I was amazed the difference that make to my skin, it would be interesting to see how this worked. x
This looks like a great skincare device. I think my Daughter would love it. It would be a great gift for her birthday.
I have never tries a skincare brush before. I will have to check this one out. MY skin is so dry from the winter.
This is cool! I’ve never tried a product like this before. Looks wonderful!
I have tried one of those little hand held brushes but I never got the results that I was looking for. This looks like it would be a much more suitable option 😉
i never heard about luna 2 facial cleansing brush..it looks really nice thou.thanx for the review
wow amazing! my sister will love that and the product it self is so amazing
I absolutely love my Foreo Luna! It makes my skin feel amazing! I really want to try the Foreo Toothbrush!
I honestly thought this was a vibrator at first! I do love the color, size, and the fact that it cleared your pores out!
I have never tried a skincare brush but this looks like my face would love it!
The odd design’s not bad, I actually prefer how it looks. It really looks comfortable for me and that’s what usually matters whenever I think about products for my skin. I like the packaging too. Overall, good recommendation!
My wife is a makeup junkie, she would really love this for sure, I’ll have to check it out for her.
I’d love to try this. I am a beauty supply junkie and have yet to try this.
I have never tried a skincare brush but this looks like it would be enjoyable.
I’ve been wanting to try skin brushing for awhile and now I know where to look for!
I’ve never tried a skin brush before, but now I do with this one!
I have never heard of a device like this. What an interesting concept
I have never tried a skincare brush before. I would love to try these on my face! They look amazing.

Ok, this is too cool! I love finding new beauty products. I’ll have to check this one out for sure.
Ive never heard of this before. I definitely need to clear some stubborn clogged pores too. So I need to check it out
I’ve never seen anything like this before. This is something I could really use too. I’d love to give this a try.
Honestly, I’ve never tried anything like this before. It sounds like a good tool to add to your usual skin care regimen. I’m sure my girls will love this too.
I have never seen this product before. It looks awesome!
The Foreo looks very interesting. I’d love something to help me battle the stuff going on in my pores.
There are such neat and innovative products out today for skincare. This is definitely something I want to check out myself.
I have never heard of this brand before but it does look interesting. I think with the bigger size it would be easier to hold.
This looks like a cool product to try! I have never heard of it but will definitely be looking out for it!
I love this! I’ve been thinking about getting something like this and I really love this one!
This looks like an awesome product to try. I need some inspiration to take better care of my skin.
My sister just told me about these. I am totally going to get one! I need to up my skin care.
Thanks so much for sharing this! I have terrible issues with my pores,and nothing seems to work. I need this!
I have not seen this before, looks like a really neat brush to have. I am glad it works well for you, I love the color!
This looks like a great tool for skincare. I have some stubborn pores, so I think this would be useful.
I’ve heard about it and when my daughter was looking for something I asked her about this but she was into getting the “other brand”. So far it seemed to be working for her but maybe I should get this one for me.
This looks like MAGIC on the skin! I could definitely use this to refresh my icky Winter skin and keep it fresh for Spring and Summer!
I used to use St. Ives too before I found out I shouldn’t. I miss exfoliating like that though, so this might be a good thing for me to look into.
I’ve heard great things about Foreo Luna. It is so cute. I’ve used several different skincare brushes and have noticed some improvement. Mostly I like them for exfoliation.
I have never actually used a skin brush. I need to my skin seems to be breaking out more now than it did when I was a teenager. Thank you for the review I will definitely think about using it.
My daughter has PCOS and because of it has a terrible time with her skin. I’ll tell her about this. It might be great for her!
It sounds like it might work really well for her. Let us know if it works.
I have actually been considering getting one of these, so I am happy to hear that you are happy with it.
