Manicare Microneedle Derma Roller

This roller is very light and has a lovely shape that fits easily in the hand. After using it I spray it with antiseptic to sterilise the roller. It comes in a clear plastic box to store when not using that helps to keep it sterile. I was a little nervous about trying this as I thought the needles may hurt, but was pleasantly surprised at how painless it is. I used this twice a week for just over 3 weeks, increasing the amount of rolls per week and have had the most unexpected, brilliant results!! For years I have suffered with broken blood vessels on my cheeks and after the second week of using this, they have nearly disappeared! I had no idea this would help them and can not believe the results! My complexion looks a lot clearer and it's lovely not having red cheeks! I haven't noticed any change in the fine lines on my face but will keep using it and will let you know if this improves. After doing my face, neck and decolletage, I apply my night cream which soaks in so quickly and lovely. I highly recommend this product!

I wondered how this wee machine could do everything it states. I followed the directions on the first day, and it was great to have the extra email with more in-depth information sent out by the beauty crew. A nice cleansed skin and rolled the micro needle over my cheeks, chin, neck and forehead. The sensation was of pins and needles all over my skin. For the next few hours there was a funny sensation of numbness and tingling. I noted the fine lines and wrinkles I have to see any difference for the length of the trial. Having been sent the brush cleaner made me feel better about using the roller. I googled a few reviews to see what others thought of the product and to see what was expected of it. I have some sun spots and combination skin - wrinkles and fine lines. All things it is meant to be able to assist. I found the roller easy to use, it was able to be manipulated into the nose area and onto the bridge of my nose. I do not get many blackheads generally but within a week of commencing this roller I had none. It was like it sired the pores out and allowing them to breathe. Using this product also made me stay with a cleansing regime which assisted in my overall complexion improving. I liked the packaging, allowing for the roller to stay protected in its case. The overall look of the packaging was interesting as it had the bumps in the box, giving you an idea of what it’s to do. The instructions were clear and concise, this was assisted with the pictures to show you where to use it and directions to roll it. Overall I had my husband telling me my skin looked lovely, less fine lines and more supple. I looked intently at the results and found the following - less fine lines No blackheads or enlarged pores Wrinkles reduced this I was very impressed by Soft skin Supple skin More youthful appearance- tones and colour Tightened skin - not so baggy around the neck and chin area. Very happy with the results and will look forward to any new changes as I continue to use it

I used no other products apart from a basic cleanser and moisturiser with Hyaluronic when trialing this product.

To prep my skin I double cleansed my face to make sure it was a clean as possible before using the derma roller.

The first week of using this I only did it twice a week to check how my skin would react to it. I then proceeded to use it every other day.

It looks very intimidating and instructions can also be a bit intimidating as well. But a quick search on YouTube manicure has a instructional introductory video that physically shows you how to use properly.

NO pressure is needed when you start using on your skin just let it glide over. Going horizontally, vertically, diagonally on each section of you face.

I found this easy to use once I got over the fear and uncertainty of rolling needles on my face.

By the end of the second week of using I noticed my skin seemed a lot brighter and pores seemed slightly reduced in size.

My skin did not look overly irritated or red from using this product at all as I thought it would. Nor did it hurt or sting.

Now after using for nearly a month I have started to notice the creases in my forehead reduce slightly as well.

The antibacterial/cleansing spray and plastic storage container makes it easy to keep sterilised and clean.

I think this would be an amazing tool for someone with acne scaring or uneven textures On their skin.

This derma roller is a microneedling tool, with a 0.3 mm needle length (perfect for beginners), that promises to help boost collagen to achieve firm, plump and radiant skin. One of the parts I really like that came with the this tool is the plastic container it comes in - it is very handy to keep the roller clean.

The roller comes with instructions on how to use, and the process is quite easy and fast. I used it three times a week during the trial, leaving a day in between to allow my skin to heal. The trick is letting the weight of the roller do the work and don't push down. After each use my skin would feel a bit tingly, but it didn't hurt.

After using it, I would apply my face oil or moisturiser. I felt my skin it absorbed the products better after using the derma roller. I am not so sure my skin feels more firm and plump, but it does feel a lot softer and smoother since using the roller. I am unsure if that is because my products have absorbed better, or it is the result of the roller itself, or a mixture of both.

Given it is an easy and quick process, and only three times a week, I will be keeping it as part of my skin routine.

At first I felt really intimidated by the thought of rolling little needles on my skin but I was also intrigued as a Beauty Therapist had recommended I try it help with a few enlarged pores that I have developed since turning 40.

This Micro-derma Roller is very easy to use and completely painless. I have been using it in addition to my skincare routine every 3 days at night time. In the first 2 weeks I noticed a few minor breakouts with tiny pimples on my chin which is usually my offending part of my face. I think this was my skin getting rid of bacteria at a deeper level and coming to the surface. I initially used Matrixyl as my serum but found this to be a bit strong and tingly on my skin so I switched my serum to Hyaluronic Acid instead. After the switch my skin has settled and the result is evenly hydrated skin with a good plump texture.

I am happy so far with the results and will continue to use until the 3month recommended period of using the device before disposal. After that I am keen to try Derma Rolling at a Beauty Therapy Clinic with a greater length needle to get the full salon effect.

I think this is a great product to start the journey of Micro-needling. I definitely agree that my pore size on my nose, chin and cheeks has reduced in size. My general skin texture is overall very smooth and looks good.

The only downside would be that it's not a more long life device, it would be good if the head could be replaceable after the 3 month time period rather than throw away. That seems a bit wasteful.

All in all, I have enjoyed Micro-needling and look forward to setting aside time to do this as my skincare routine. You really can notice the difference in how the products in your skincare penetrate the skin and start working at a deeper level. If you are sitting on the fence, definitely give this device a shot. It's easy to use and not scary at all!

I have been using the Manicare Microneedle derma Roller for 2 weeks to trail it. During that time my skin has felt softer and i have had slightly less breakouts. I think it has helped to remove more dead skin cells. I found the Manicare Microneedle derma Roller easy to use and easy to clean. It was not painful just like tiny pricks on your skin. My skin felt refreshed after using. I will continue to use the Manicare Microneedle derma Roller.

I was pretty sceptical as to what the results (if any) would be but I’m a convert! The first time I used it my skin tingled but it didn’t hurt. It continued to tingle for maybe 20 minutes or so afterwards but after a couple of times using, it only tingles for a very short time. I use my serums straight after and my skin just sucks it up. I can definitely see and feel a difference. My skin is softer and I’m sure my fine lines aren’t as prominent. I have a little acne scarring on my forehead and there is absolutely an improvement. I’ll be continuing to use this for sure! I can’t wait to see the difference in another six months.

This was my first time using a microneedle derma roller, I was a little nervous at first due to: A. not knowing what the needles would actually feel like, and B. Doing it wrong. But, in the end, I found it easy to use and completely painless. Routine-wise, it recommends using the product ~3-4 times a week, so I went with an every-other-day routine; which seemed to work well.

Although a lot of the more long-term benefits are yet to be seen (naturally), there were certainly some immediate benefits that can be seen/felt. First, the better 'product absorption' claim is bang-on, almost scarily so! After using the roller, I put my usual moisturizer on, and it sucked right into my skin, I actually had to put another layer on because I was thinking 'where the heck did it all go?!'. Other changes I noticed not long after starting the product was my skin texture has improved, a lot. My partner actually noticed it first, I had thought my skin was feeling much more velvety and soft, but he pointed out how visibly smooth my skin also was. The final change I noticed, was the improved appearance of older acne scars/redness, I wouldn't say anything too drastic, but I imagine with continued use I will see even more results.

Overall, I think this is a fantastic beauty tool, great for beginners, and the price point is excellent. Once I'm done with this roller, I am actually going to try some longer length needles. I do think it's also important to have some sort of established skincare routine to incorporate this into, as I imagine there are a lot of benefits not realised if the roller is used without products.

Thanks so much for the opportunity to review this both myself and my husband both used it and have both found it quite good so we will continue. It’s nice and light weight and fits well in your hand with the roller having tiny little needles that are very gentle when you roll it over your face and neck. I found the instructions on the box easy to follow and I used the roller in all directions on my head abs neck. Using it every second night I did find I had a little bit of redness and I could really feel my serum soaking in so will have to get some more serum. I have noticed some of my fine lines seem even finer if that’s possible lol I think it will continue to use it and I believe you can buy replacement heads so I think it would be a good tool to have.

We were given about 3 weeks to review this product which I believe is enough time to see how effective the product actually is. The needles are very fine. I followed the instructions and just glided the device over my skin which didn't cause any discomfort at all. They advised to run the product over the skin twice in each direction, increasing it to 5 over time. I actually ended up rolling it a total of 10 times, 5 in each direction as to be perfectly honest I wasn't seeing any results following their recommendations. After about 2 weeks I think I saw the pigmentation on my skin diminishing and my skin started looking brighter than usual. I'm also not sure if it was the moisturiser or the other skin care I was using but it also looked like my pore size was being reduced as well. I think also using it before my face creams etc did help my skin absorb the product better and the days after using the device my foundation looked a lot better on my skin. I'm going to continue to use it after the trial to see if my results get even better and whether it would be a good alternative to clinic based microneedling as that is something that has been recommended to me in the past but there is that hefty price tag attached to it.
