Here's what you need to know before incorporating this petite, mighty fitness buddy into your skincare routine.

When compared to the other facial devices at FOREO, the FOREO BEAR is relatively a more under-the-radar design. I recently jumped on a chance to try and experience the micro current facial toning device and I have to say I love it just as much as I love the LUNA and UFO. The 2-minute treatment instantly perks up dull skin by depuffing and bringing radiance to complexion, and after a week of diligently using it every AM and PM, I noticed the toning and firming results.&nbsp;

I caught up with Janty, the SEA Regional trainer of FOREO to learn more about FOREO BEAR range because this best-kept secret shouldn&rsquo;t be a secret:

Can you tell us more about the FOREO BEAR range's approach to skin rejuvenating and lifting?&nbsp;
BEAR is the safest microcurrent option that features Anti-Shock System&trade; to eliminate any chance of the microcurrent shocking your skin. Together with FOREO&rsquo;s signature T-Sonic&trade; pulsations that massage the face and brighten your complexion, BEAR also delivers current faster than other devices, making the treatment quicker. On average, you will spend 2 minutes instead of 30. This makes a huge difference in terms of productivity and saving precious time. It is a quick, safe, and easy to manage product that truly delivers results.&nbsp;

Can you brief us on how Microcurrent works on skin and how we can decide the intensity when using it?&nbsp;
Microcurrent is a low-voltage electrical current that contours and lifts skin and muscles. Often referred to as a natural or instant facelift. It works by stimulating the 69 muscles in your face and neck that with age lose their tone and firmness. Microcurrent is a known and proven (for over 60 years) treatment that improves elasticity, collagen production, and skin cell turnover.&nbsp;
We clinically tested our products and BEAR is proven to significantly improve skin firmness &amp; elasticity in just 1 week. To be precise 98% of results came back testifying the skin looks healthier, more plump and elastic. These results have clinically confirmed you can truly get the best possible results.&nbsp;
For beginners, it is very simple - I recommend starting with the smallest intensity and slowly building it up.&nbsp;

Why makes SERUM S&Eacute;RUM SERUM the perfect ally for FOREO Bear?&nbsp;
It is everything your skin loves! It is a lightweight serum that combines the antioxidant power of squalane and hydrating hyaluronic acid complex to renew and replenish the appearance of the skin. It is also a conductive medium for the microcurrent. This makes it the perfect pair for BEAR treatment or even using it alone in your skincare routine. It is suitable for all skin types and free of parabens, mineral oils, fragrance, hormone disruptors and it is cruelty free.&nbsp;
During treatment, I like to work in sections to make sure serum does not dry out before I start treatment with BEAR. I first tackle my jawline to cheekbones before I move on to my forehead and neck.&nbsp;

Would you recommend teaming up FOREO Bear with other devices like LUNA and UFO? If yes, what would the routine look like?&nbsp;
Not necessarily. It all depends on your preferences. Full FOREO skincare ritual takes only 6 minutes in total if you use all steps, but whether you want to use all products depends on you. First things first, 1 minute deep cleansing with LUNA is the basic step but it has always been compromised. With this step you remove up to 99% of oil, dirt, impurities, and makeup residue leaving pores unclogged and ready for the next step.
The 2 minute microcurrent treatment with BEAR would give you an elastic skin and sculpted complexion (and no more puffiness!). Lastly, UFO with its 3-minutes supercharged facial leaves your skin rejuvenated, hydrated and plump. It features a combo of 5 of the most popular spa treatments in one device; Thermo-therapy, Cryo-therapy, T-Sonic&trade; massage, LED Lights, and Mask Treatment.&nbsp;

Should we pause the use of Foreo's Microcurrent and T-Sonic Pulsations-powered devices on irritated and post-facial skin?&nbsp;
Yes, you should. When your skin is irritated or post-facial skin, you do not want to interfere with the healing process. After invasive treatments it takes 2-3 weeks&rsquo; time to let the skin go back to the balanced stage and start any treatments after that.&nbsp;

Are there any skincare and selfcare practices that you wish you started doing earlier?&nbsp;
As basic as it sounds, keeping skin clean and hydrated from an early stage is the key to maintaining skin plumpness over time and eventually slowing down the aging process. When we were young, most of us had oily skin and the common mistake is to skip moisturizer thinking it will make it even oilier. But that is not the case, the main function of our skin to keep it protected is by producing sebum, so trying to eliminate oil from our skin makes the skin produce excess oil in order to perform&nbsp;its protective function. I would recommend keeping a simple routine such as LUNA cleansing (double cleansing for makeup), hydration with Serum/Moisturizer or treating your skin with UFO treatment, and protection with sunblock. When it comes to skincare, there is no question that prevention is easier than fixing a problem.&nbsp;
