If you’ve been jonesing for one of my biggest obsessions, FOREO LUNA™, you’re officially out of excuses. Sneak peeks of a new macaron size FOREO LUNA™ Play on the @spacenkusa Instagram look both tempting and delicious! The pixi release is a dream come true for those unwilling to splurge blindly. Truth is, the Swedish import with a gorgeous Nordic aesthetic delivers superb performance… it’s one of the best skin-vestments out there.
What is it exactly? Made entirely of silicone, this waterproof cleansing device features T-Sonic™ technology and two different size touch points to boost the cleansing ritual and remove dirt, makeup and dead skin cells more effectively. With the help of powerful yet gentle sonic pulsations (8,000 to be exact), FOREO LUNA™ Play works with any face wash formula – just like its larger cousins. It’s the mighty giant in the range.
How is it different? Unlike the FOREO LUNA™ 2 and ‘mini’ versions, Play is not rechargeable. Read: it’s sort of, kind of… disposable, in a way. Now, don’t get crazy – it’s great. It holds up to 100 uses, comes in adorable color options, and travels way better than the rest of the crew.
Speaking of travel… since no auto shut-off exists, keep the unit in its plastic case and you’ll avoid wasting the battery during transit. You’re in charge of the ON and OFF action, so time yourself when using it. The 100 uses can be reduced to 50 or increased to 200 based on the duration of each use. Helpful hint: a standard cleanse is 60 seconds.
If FOREO LUNA™ 2 seems too pricey, try Play before jumping in. You will love the level of clean this device delivers. And the most attractive perk of the Play deal? Register a code included with your tiny device at foreo.com/play and have the full price of Play refunded when you purchase LUNA 2™. That’s $39 off retail.

Ugh, just when I put myself on a no–more-splurge budget, now I want one too… Does it have skin massage quality the way clarisonic does or is it mostly for thorough make up removal?

It vibrates thanks to the T-Sonic™ technology but it does not have the anti-aging mode that LUNA 2 has – the vibrations are geared towards loosening up dirt and sloughing off dead skin. It’s a great way to try the brand but it will not substitute the ‘mini’ or ‘2’ models. They just launched a ‘Pro’ one yesterday – looks like an investment! xo
