Pairing M1 mist with a high-frequency device.

April 27, 2022

Is anyone interested in a discussion about at-home skincare devices? After almost seven years of exclusively using my own experimental formulations and then registered Hyangii cosmetics, I'm ready to explore non-invasive additions I am neither an aesthetician nor a dermatologist, but I do like DIY options for everything (including haircutting and dog grooming) since I do not like to leave my house unless absolutely necessary!

One of you asked me about this device years ago. I knew nothing about it at the time, but I have since seen it pop-up here and there. I have been testing this high-frequency device (use the orange coloured wands) with M1 (oil-free, antioxidant mist) since it's best used with oil-free products.

This device is often used with aloe gel or ultrasound gel, but I do not like the the extra step it requires to wash it off:

  1. Oil cleanse and wash face.

  2. Apply aloe or ultrasound gel and use the wand.

  3. Wash off gel.

  4. Follow with M1, M2, M3

Using M1 is easier and faster:

  1. Oil cleanse and wash face.

  2. Apply M1 and use wand.

  3. Follow with M2, M3.

This device is not magical for "anti-aging" but it's really effective for acne that pops up once in a while. It also doesn’t seem to exacerbate spots on my pigmentation-prone skin when used once a week. Maybe I’ll try to increase it’s use to twice a week.

NOT TO BE USE WITH ACIDS or RETINOIDS.

* Did you know that aloe gel is made with aloe juice (which is the consistency of water) that is thickened with a gelling agent? The gelling agent is not necessarily beneficial for the skin, it just gives a aloe jelly type texture.

Are there any devices that you like to use?
