FOREO launches UFO Smart Mask

A revolution in skincare
Known for its forward-thinking approach to beauty tools, Swedish brand FOREO has just released its newest product and it's one of the brand's most innovative yet...

Love a sheet mask? We all do, however there’s rarely enough time in any given week to treat ourselves to a time-out to apply a mask, sit for 15 minutes and let it go to work. Which is why when news reached Buro HQ today of FOREO’s newest invention, we were positively thrilled. 

The brand has just unveiled the UFO (which stands for Ur Future Obsession), a hand-held gadget set to revolutionise the skincare game. Four years in the making, the device delivers all the benefits of a sheet mask in just 90 seconds. 

In a statement, the brand explained that the device “utilises hyper-fusion technology, combining heating to open pores, T-Sonic pulsations to instantly infuse active ingredients more deeply into the skin and cryotherapy to seal the active ingredients and firm the skin” and “includes a range of LED light therapy treatments to offer three photofacials, including anti-aging, brightening and anti-acne.” It also “works hand in hand with the specially invented UFO-activated sheet masks. These ultra-soft microfibre masks [which are enriched with plant and fruit extracts, concentrated botanical oils and natural flower water] ensure flawless skin from dawn to dusk and each formula pairs with a unique UFO treatment routine.” 

The product is being launched with two pre-programmed masks however the corresponding app (available on both Android and iPhone) is home to all future treatments as well as settings where the user can adjust the intensity of the device depending on their individual preferences. 

It is currently available to pre-order on Kickstarter.com with up to 50 per cent off. Now, discover the best beauty looks from the 2018 Golden Globes
