Manicare Salon Magnifying Pore Vacuum

I have persistent blackheads in my nose crevices and my chin crevice (fine, bum chin) but other than that my skin is pretty clear.

OR SO I THOUGHT. There's nothing quite like seeing your skin magnified 10 times in High Definition to make you feel ick! Even the clear areas look, well, not that clear, and the congested areas, well jeepers. This tool is not for the faint of heart.

So I read the instructions and installed the app. It's all pretty simple to connect it, and there's a photo and video option - just in case you want to re-live the extractions.

I had a shower. I have hot showers anyway, and I wasted no time getting this suction show on the road. I went for the normal nozzle, strong suction, and soon wanted to curl up and die inside. You know what blackheads look like when you squeeze right? It's something entirely different watching them pop untouched! As you move the tool around the skin goo collects around the nozzle. It looks much worse under magnification, but you'll want to make sure you clean the nozzle well, after every use.

The comparative product is a pore strip, and I much prefer this. Sure if you get distracted you might bruise yourself, but all up, it's cleaner, smoother and you don't feel like you're waxing your skin off upon removal.

Gross. But I love it.

This little vacuum comes with a charger - it's easy to plug in, the connnection feels sturdy unlike some cheaper alternative.

It is light and ergonomic to hold and the light up screen makes it clear what setting you have it on.

I used the narrow nozzle which encourages a stronger suction for deep clog pores. I did bruise once, but that was my fault, I was so determined to get this one pore to pop!

The app and camera are great, it's a seamless connection and intuitive to use.

It holds battery well.

This is one of those products that while not essential, is a fun (in a gross way) product that does the job it sets out to do. I'll definitely continue use.

When I first received this little gadget I was convinced it wouldn’t do much and would be another thing to live in my beauty graveyard. Holy moly how wrong was I!? This is the best thing I have used on my face to clear up congestion in a really long time. I have sensitive skin so I used the smaller nozzle of the 4 provided to begin with, and found it really easy to use. I wasn’t sure about the suction so started off on the soft intensity. Going over my nose it was equal parts fascinating and disgusting what was being sucked out of my face! Using the app to watch as you vacuum was definitely fun and I used the photo function to take before and after photos. The larger nozzle also felt fine on my face and made it easier to go over my cheeks and forehead. I didn’t feel there was any difference using the oval head, and the exfoliating one left my face feeling a little scratched and sore when I washed it the next morning. I found this vacuum was not only great for removing congestion, but also got rid of a LOT of the oil that had started to sit by the end of the day. Nozzles were super easy to clean, I used a cotton bud and a wet wipe to clean whilst using, then gave them a thorough clean under hot water and some cleanser after I’d finished with them. Device has a battery symbol on it, and I fully charged it when it arrived and have used it 8 times for 10-15 minutes each time and have still not moved off a full battery (currently at 93% on the app). Full charge takes around 3 hours and charging cable is a decent length. The app is basic, but does what it needs to do! It tells you what battery percentage you have left, takes photos and videos and is pretty user friendly. Camera is in the middle of the screen and takes up approximately 1/3 of the total screen.

Overall, so happy with the pore vacuum! I already have a list of people getting these for Christmas because I want everyone to try this out but am not willing to give mine over to anyone! Definitely buy this, you won’t be disappointed.

This Manicare Pore Vacuum with 4x attachments is an amazing product. I received in a light purple box well packaged, but do wish it came with a small carry pouch/case to keep everything in one place. I also downloaded the app which I would highly recommend, easy to connect to device and super simple to use, it magnifys x10 and OMG it was super gross at first you can see everything from hairs that need removing to the clearing out of pores, but satisfying to some. Can be used on 3 settings soft, normal and strong I honestly recommend starting at soft first to see if your skin can tolerate the suction as it has very great suction. DO NOT LEAVE ON SAME ARE FOR LONGER THAN 3 SECONDS, I left on my bridge of nose for 3.5 seconds and resulted in light bruising which only lasted a day thankfully its lockdown lol. Definitely open pores, I double cleansed than used the device straight after while my pores were open and results were much better. Easy sanitation after each use. It did say use alcohol free toner to skin but I just applied once treatment was complete. Amazing results days later from very oily skin and open pores to minimized pores, glowing skin and even skin tone thank you Manicare for an easy at home result that I'd receive at a normal salon, definitely worth the price, saving money on pore strips and pore cleansers and reducing waste just what i need.

This actually works! I really loved this and will 100% continue to use it. It was super easy to get started and use after charging. Would definitely recommend using the app it’s so interesting to see actually how congested you are. I couldn’t get the app to work on my iPhone for some reason but I grabbed my partners Samsung and it worked perfectly. I prefer to use the oval head I feel like it worked better for me to unclog. The microdermabrasion head is also great, just the exfoliating head left my nose super smooth. This has left my nose so smooth and I even got my partner using it which is unheard of! Would recommend this so much more than any blackhead strip I’ve ever used.

I must admit when I first got this item I wasn't expecting much. Usually theese devices over promise and under deliver on what they do, but boy was 8 pleasantly surprised!

The set up is super easy. Download the app while the device has its first charge. Simple. The QR code didnt send me to the app directly but if you type in the brand name into the app store it pops up first time. Once its charged you turn it on and connect via wifi and its connected. (That actually sounds alot harder than it is)

From then on its party time. A good hot shower or steam realy loosens up blockages and the camera is so clear once its turned on. I honestly thought there wasn't much in my skin but I was dead wrong and it was super satisfying watching all the blockages burst out of where they were hiding.

The suction is soo good. And very strong! Make sure you keep moving so you dont accidentally give yourself a little bruise. All the attachment heads worked well but my favorite by far was the oval one. That and a low suction setting turned out to be my favorite combination!

This thing actually works! And the app allows you to record what's happening if you want to have a look later on or your an up and coming pimple popping youtube creator!

Clean up is also super easy. I just cleaned of debris with a tissue and cotton swabs and spirits with isopropyl.

I am so amazed and happy with this product and I have already raved about it to so many people!!! Complete 10/10 for me.

I have used the Manicare Salon Magnifying Pore Vacuum a couple of times over the past week and have been pleasantly surprised with the results. It was easy to download the app onto my Samsung through the play store and then log in via wifi settings. I had a quick look on the website for tips before using and made sure I had opened my pores by having a shower the first time and then a steam basin the second. The camera enables you to see where any blackheads or clogged pores are and you can see the blockages literally sucked from them! I had about a 4 day gap between using it and the difference the second time was noticeable with not as many blockages. There are 3 suction settings, I started with the lowest when I first tried it to get used to it, then moved to the strongest suction as I got used to it. My teenage daughter also used (with my supervision) and she was impressed as well. My skin was noticeably smoother as well after using the microdermabrasion tool, there are different sized nozzles depending on where you want to use it on your face. The smaller oval one was great for small areas around the nose, lips.

I was so thrilled so be picked to trial and review the manicare pore vacuum!. The HD camera was incredible, and being able to see your skin up close like that while using a tool like this was fantastic. I have teenage sons whom also gave the pore vacuum a go and it quickly and efficiently dealt with spots- my only recommendation however would be the inclusion of a cleansing brush for easily cleaning the attachments after each use. My favorite attachment was the microdermabrasion tool- the areas around my t zone are looking much clearer and feeling smoother. I have have noticed a significant difference in the pores on and around my nose- this tool has now become part of my weekly skin routine, however for my boys- they've each downloaded the app and have grabbed it a couple of times already to deal with spots!!

I was so excited to try this as my nose tends to be quite bumpy and rough. Firstly the look of it is so compact and sleek, I love the colours and design. I also like that it come with four different attachments including a microdermabrasion nozzle, feel like I'm getting a lot of salon options to use at home. My favourite feature is the HD camera! Just WOW! You can see results easily and gives a sense of satisfaction. I started off with the large nozzle but suggest using the smaller one first and going up as you may not need so much suction! I found my face felt smoother even after the first use, it can get a little addicting so I try use only once a week or whenever I feel my pores look clogged. I really rate this product and would recommend. I think the price point isn't too bad considering the technology, different nozzles and the ease of use. Excited to keep using this and having smoother skin.
