We believe effective skincare works in harmony with your existing routine.
Our devices are designed to amplify the benefits of the products you're already using—just imagine how you could maximize your skincare results! However, it’s essential to choose the right serum, as some popular serums may appear harmless but can reduce the effectiveness of LED therapy and cause friction that makes it hard for the device to glide.
Here’s how to make Auragence™ devices a seamless addition to your routine, while focusing on the best types of serums for maximum results and those to avoid.
Step 1: Begin with a Clean Slate
Before using any Auragence™ device, start with thoroughly cleansed skin. Proper cleaning removes oils, dirt, or makeup and preps your device to work more effectively. Use a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type, rinse well, and pat dry with a soft towel.
Step 2: Choose the Right Serum for Enhanced Benefits
To maximize your experience with the Auragence™ device, pair it with the right type of serum. Serums create a conductive layer that helps the device glide smoothly over your skin while boosting the treatment’s benefits. Here’s what to look for in a serum—and what to avoid:
Recommended Serums to Use with Auragence™ Devices:
- Hyaluronic Acid Serums: Lightweight and non-greasy, they attract moisture, plumping and hydrating the skin. Works well with LED therapy. Try The Asterwood™ Hyaluronic Acid Serum, soothing and great for sensitive skin.
- Aloe Vera-Based Serums: Provides a smooth glide and helps calm redness. Try Cosrx Aloe Vera Oil-Free Moisture Cream.
- Peptide Serums: Anti-aging and skin-firming benefits that complement LED therapy. Consider The Inkey List Peptide Moisturizer or The Ordinary Buffet Peptide Serum.
- Jojoba Oil: Lightweight and mimics skin’s natural oils, offering excellent slip for LED therapy. Suitable for most skin types.
Serums to Avoid When Using Auragence™ Devices:
- Silicone-Based Serums: Leave a tacky residue that may impede the device’s glide and light penetration.
- Heavy Oil-Based Serums: Avoid oils like coconut and argan, which create a slick layer that blocks LED penetration.
- Thick Vitamin C Creams or Serums: Creamy, glycerin-based formulations can be sticky and interfere with the device’s glide.
- Retinoid Serums or Creams: Best used on non-LED days, as they increase sensitivity. Apply retinoids in the evening, separate from LED therapy.
- Heavy Anti-Aging Creams: Rich emollients can leave a residue that reduces device efficiency. Save for nighttime use without LED therapy.
Step 3: Integrate Auragence™ Devices in the Right Order
The order in which you apply your skincare with your Auragence™ device is key to maximizing both product absorption and device effectiveness. Here’s a suggested sequence:
- Cleanser: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities.
- Serum: Apply a light, hydrating, or rejuvenating serum with good slip.
- Auragence™ Device: Use your device over the serum as it acts as the conductive layer, enhancing the device’s performance.
- Moisturizer: After treatment, apply a light moisturizer to lock in hydration.
- Sunscreen (Morning Routine): If using in the morning, finish with SPF 30 or more to protect your skin from the sun.
This sequence allows each product and your Auragence™ device to work together for the best possible results.
Step 4: Be Consistent, But Listen to Your Skin
Consistency is important with LED therapy. Aim to use your Auragence™ device 2-3 times a week, gradually increasing to daily use as your skin adjusts. Be mindful not to overload your skin; if needed, adjust the frequency based on how your skin feels.
With consistent use, many users begin noticing visible improvements in radiance, smoothness, and firmness within a few weeks.
Step 5: Avoid Overloading Your Skin with Active Ingredients
To prevent irritation, avoid layering too many active ingredients like retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs right before or after device use. Strong actives paired with LED therapy can overstimulate, particularly on sensitive skin.
Use only gentle, hydrating serums on device days, and save stronger actives for non-device days. This balanced approach allows skin to benefit from LED therapy without compromising comfort or safety.
