Foreo, the Swedish beauty tool brand, is running its springtime sale right now with discounts up to 50% off across its lineup. There’s also a limited-time promo code, SPRING25, that stacks an additional 25% off sitewide. If you’re considering dropping money on an LED mask or microcurrent device, the timing is decent. But before you load up your cart, it’s worth asking: what exactly are these tools supposed to do, and do they actually deliver?
The brand itself was born from a practical frustration. Founder Filip Sedic launched Foreo in 2013 after watching his wife use a facial brush he thought was too abrasive and unhygienic. That obsession with gentler, more sanitary beauty tools has defined the company ever since. Over the past decade, they’ve built a solid reputation across skincare, haircare, oral care, and eye care. Now they’re getting serious about hair removal and LED light therapy, which tells you something about where beauty technology is headed.
Testing Foreo’s Newest Devices
I’m currently testing two of their latest releases: the FAQ 202 Plus LED mask and the Flip Play LED hairbrush. One week in, both devices are genuinely easy to use. The mask features 634 LED lights across eight wavelengths (near-infrared, red, blue, green, orange, yellow, purple, and cyan). The hairbrush works like a compact silicone detangler but with light therapy built in, designed to reduce breakage and stimulate hair follicles.
The initial experience has been frictionless. Neither device feels overwrought or requires a PhD to operate. They slot into my nighttime routine without demanding anything special from me. That simplicity matters because if a beauty tool feels like a chore, most people won’t stick with it long enough to see results.
The Devices Actually Worth Considering
The Luna 3 Plus is Foreo’s bestseller, and there’s a reason. It’s currently 29% off without needing a promo code. This device combines a facial cleanser, massager, and microcurrent treatment into one heated silicone tool. The build is bacteria-resistant (silicone beats nylon), and it offers 16 intensity levels to handle everything from makeup removal to skin firming. It comes with a two-year warranty, which signals genuine confidence in durability.
The Foreo Bear takes microcurrent technology as its main event. With the seasonal 25% discount, it becomes more compelling from a value perspective. Ten microcurrent intensity levels, app-guided treatments, and up to 90 uses per charge make it portable enough for actual travel. Available in fuchsia or mint, it doesn’t shy away from color, which is refreshing in an industry obsessed with minimalist beige.
If you’re watching your budget, the UFO 2 undercuts both options while packing five features into one device: thermotherapy, cryotherapy, LED light, and T-sonic pulsations. Right now it’s 29% off with no code needed. The T-sonic pulses allegedly ease facial tension and improve blood flow, while the combination of hot and cold waves with LED stimulation is supposed to enhance how your skin absorbs products. I haven’t tested this one myself, but Foreo’s track record suggests it’s not snake oil.
What This Sale Actually Means
Here’s the honest part: the springtime discounts are real, but they’re also predictable seasonal marketing. Every beauty brand does this. What matters is whether the underlying product makes sense for your skin concerns. LED light therapy has legitimate research backing it, particularly red and near-infrared wavelengths for collagen production and wound healing. But it’s not a miracle cure, and it works best as part of an actual skincare routine, not instead of one.
Orders over $199 qualify for free standard shipping, and Foreo’s newsletter offers 15% off your first purchase with a one-time coupon code. If you’re genuinely curious about any of these tools, now is cheaper than next month.
The real question isn’t whether Foreo makes solid devices. They clearly do. The question is whether you actually need one, or whether the appeal is mostly that beauty tools look cool and feel productive even when you’re just standing there letting lights wash over your face.
