"I liked the FOREO Bear, I liked it, however I don't use it anymore. It's a microcurrent device the company claims is 2.5 times more powerful than other options, but the problem is I actually really like more gentle microcurrent, so overall I like the nanocurrent settings on the Zip more. [...] It's not my favorite, but in this sale at 50% off I can see it being worth it for some people, you just [...] have to use these devices consistently to see results."

"I have abandoned all of my other microcurrent devices. I've tried the Foreo, many iterations of the Foreo. I've also tried the Newface, multiple iterations of the Newface."

"I love my little Foreo Bear. I honestly prefer the little one over the Bear Plus, it kind of contours my cheek a little bit better."

"The Foreo Bear is a microcurrent device that uses a very small electrical charge to stimulate the smooth muscles under your skin to lift and tighten up. [...] By using this electrical current you can stimulate the smooth muscles to contract underneath the surface of the skin causing the skin to look tighter and lifted, and the results can actually be pretty impressive from these devices."

"I've tried the Foreo Bear, the Zip, the new Face Medicube, myolift mini, and then a lot of ones that frankly are a waste of money. The Foreo Bear is a two probe system, whereas the Medicube is a two lobe system and the myolift mini is a two probe system."

"I have the Foreo Bear and I have the new Face Trinity. I have been using the new Face Trinity way way longer than the bear but the bear is kind of growing on me. The main difference between them is the amount of time that it takes to do a treatment. [...] With the bear there is no five second timer, it just has a three minute timer per treatment so if you want to do your whole face in three minutes you just shoot around your face and you're done."

"I didn't like it because you had to sync it up with your phone with their app in order to even turn it on and that kind of bugged me. [...] But I got to say it has really grown on me over the course of the year to the point that I kind of alternate using these. [...] They're both great devices I love them both. [...] This one is a three minute treatment, so if you don't have as much time to spend [...] then I would say definitely get the BEAR."

"The bear is really good. I really have been enjoying it lately when I've been pressed for time. It's a good product. The cycle is three minutes and it doesn't have a beeping. It's less of a controlled slow glide than more just kind of rub it around your face, so you get a really nice massage with this. It also has sonic vibration."

"I've added a microcurrent device. This is the Foreo Bear. I did a sponsorship with them. I also have a new face that I sometimes use as well, and I've been playing around with them and trying to compare them. I [...] tend to be a bit sporadic because I'm just bad at using things daily."
