This derma roller is designed with 540 ultrafine 0.3mm painless needles, which is made of sterilised surgical grade Stainless Steel. It is perfect to use at home to help boost collagen to achieve firm, plump and radiant skin.

Microneedling is a skin treatment, not ingredient-based, which uses your body’s most natural response and reactions to repair and promote healthy skin.

Microneedling creates micro-channels on the skin, which in turn triggers collagen production to compensate the skin as it rejuvenates. In addition, it also helps improves the absorption and efficiency of your skincare.

Regular usage reduces the appearance of skin imperfections, including scarring, enlarged pores and stretched marks. Simply incorporate as part of your night-time routine to help enhance the performance of actives in your favourite skincare products.

540 Needles!!

540 needles. That's what I find so unbelievable. On this little facial roller are 540 spikey points. It would be a barbaric beauty treatment if it wasn't so effective!

I was a bit apprehensive about using it for the first time and followed the instructions to do just one roll in each direction and to build up over time. As it was it kind of felt pleasant, with no discomfort.

Definitely do this at night - it makes your face super red after use, but that's gone by morning so all good!

My skin looks and feels great and I don't think its the placebo effect either, I really feel a positive impact has been had. The areas of discolouration from pregnancy look less stark and the texture of my skin is very,very soft.

I think this is one of those hype products that actually do the job. Is it a miracle product? Nope. But it does work!

Tips: Clean the roller after use!

An excellent start for Microneedle Derma Rollers!

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.

Tips: The most important step is to read/watch the instructions. I cannot emphasise this enough, watch all the videos, make absolutely sure you're using the correct sanitiser spray (and that you are using it after every single use of the tool). You shouldn't be pushing the roller onto your skin either, simply rolling it over the skin.

I also talked about how to use the roller with a beauty therapist friend before starting. She also mentioned to try and keep the skin as taught as possible when rolling as this will help keep an even surface for all the microneedles to hit when you're going over the skin.

Great for new acne scarring!

I was (un)lucky enough to have a giant, painful pimple when I got the roller! Even though I literally went to beauty therapy school for 2 years, I couldn't help but try and pop it.. A couple of times.. Needless to say, I had a big purple acne scar. Obviously I avoided the area with the roller until it healed, but after that, it was fair game. And now after a few weeks of regular use (I mostly used it every second day, or at least 2-3 times a week) and now the scar is completely gone! I do still have some of my older acne scars, but they have faded a little. I think the trick is definitely to act quick on fresh scars. I have found that my overall skin tone has improved too.

The roller itself is easy and comfortable to use. It probably only squeaked like twice and that was after using it a fair few times. There was no pain whatsoever. Afterwards, it just felt like a bit of mild sunburn for about 20 minutes. I like to apply a soothing serum afterwards. I use Medik8s Calmwise anti redness serum. Make sure to sterilize the roller before and after use! Isopropyl works best. Manicare have a brush cleaner that is literally just isopropyl and fragrance. So I just use that. Multipurpose!

If you've ever had needling done at the physio for an injury, this works in a similar manner. Creating small injuries to the area to trigger your body's healing response (in this case, collagen production)

Tips: Don't use the roller any longer than it says to. The needles dull over time and can cause damage to the skin. Make sure to replace it at least every 3 months (depending on how often you use it).

Best used in conjunction with in salon treatments. Like maintenance between professional needling. Also ensure to use good quality skincare! It makes a world of difference.

Sanitize before and after each use.

Do it in the evening before bed so the redness is gone by morning (use clean pillowcases!)

Easy at home treatment

First impression of packaging was that it looked tidy, compact and straight forward. Opening the derma roller box - it was in a sealed pouch in a clear container. It looked sterile and was happy it had its own purpose made container. The needles are short and tiny. Read through instructions which were straight forward. Cleansed my face thoroughly and started rolling as per diagram on packaging. It says not to use pressure and let it roll over skin using its own weight. It wasn't uncomfortable at all, easy to handle and rolled easily over the contours of my face. After rolling in all directions over my face it felt prickly, only slight discomfort. Put a serum on and ready for bed. My face tingled for a bit until I fell asleep. Woke up the next morning and had a look for any reactions or blemishes and my skin was great. I don't know if it was in my mind, looking for a difference but noticed my skin looked dewy and slightly plump. Used it as per instructions - every second day. Using the sterilize spray (pleasant scent) after every use and placed back into its container. Careful with sun exposure and sunblocked daily. The serum I chose to use with this trial was a vit C and hyaluronic serum. Overall I enjoyed this product trial, it was different to other trials Ive done, I like the idea of a salon treatment I was able to perform at home regularly using my product choices. Everything is straight forward and easy to use.

Tips: Be careful when rolling not to drag the roller across skin.

Wrinkle less

Nice little tool to help serums penetrate the skin a bit better. Used it for a week and could clearly see the lines already disappearing. Much cheaper and safer than injections I would say.

Tips: Make sure to use a good serum with the Deramroller. Do not change direction without lifting the roller first. That could lead to some damage of the skin

Tingly but good

I feel I need a little more time to give the best review with this product however I have noticed my night serums appear to be absorbing better. Online tips advise it can take around 3 months to start seeing proper results so I am really looking forward to seeing the long term effects.

I am using the roller 3 times a week, first time my skin went a glowing red but I have noticed with more use it doesn’t glow as red.

First night it felt like a slight sunburnt tingly feeling, which was gone by the time I woke and I haven’t had the same tingly feeling with more use.

I am booked for deeper microneedling session with my dermatologist so I look forward to using the Manicare Microneedle Derma Roller as good in between maintenance.

Tips: Painless and you don’t need to push hard. Ensure you have a good skin routine for afterwards with serums ie hyaluronic acid and moisturiser.

Tiny needles but great results!

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.

Tips: Don’t expect immediate results it will take time to work.

Do not put any pressure on roller when using as it could cause more harm to your skin than good.

Easy addition to my skin routine

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.

Tips: Use a sanitising spray after each use to avoid infection.

Manicare Microneedle derma Roller

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.

Tips: Clean the Manicare Microneedle derma Roller straight after use so it is really to use next time. I found it felt better after use when i use a nourishing cream.

Derma roller at home

I was super excited to be on this trial, I had never been to a beauty salon to have any sort of treatment and to be able to try it in my own home was very cool. When the derma roller arrived I was initially scared to try it as I was scared it would hurt. But it doesn’t hurt to me at all. I made sure I cleansed my skin really well and then I rolled it over my face a couple of times each way. It feels quite nice. A little prickly but not at all sore. My skin didn’t turn red and I was amazed at how it was such a quick process. The derma roller came with a sanitizer which you spray on once used and then you let it air dry before putting it back in its package. I applied my skincare straight after as it’s supposed to help the skincare work more efficiently. I could tell I had used something on my face afterwards. It just felt like I’d done something. I feel as though this is a really affordable product. I am not sure of any visible difference to my skin as yet but look forward to seeing results later down the track.

Tips: Make sure to cleanse properly before use and use sun screen while using this product.
