Getting the most out of your Wayskin
Introducing our first curated electronic skincare product—the WAYSKIN skin analyzer! If you’ve been lucky enough to attend one of our pop-ups or events you might have already had the chance to test out this new skincare technology tool.
What is it?
WAYSKIN is like a FitBit for your skin – it functions to measure the moisture levels in your face at any point during the day, gives you a score, and tracks your progress. It’s pretty much your own personal skincare trainer that fits in your pocket.
WAYSKIN offers you different solutions including product recommendations based on your skin type, and recommendations based on the current weather. The app’s environment sensing system tracks the day’s UV index & harmful environmental factors. You’re able to enter your daily water intake & period cycle to give the app an even better idea of your skin condition.
Where can I get it?
You’re able to purchase the WAYSKIN on our website, and then setting it up on your phone is a breeze. All you need to do is download the WAYSKIN app, from the App Store or the Google Play store, and connect your phone to your WAYSKIN device via Bluetooth.
Why do I need to download an app to use this device?
The app itself offers more information than you could ever know what to do with. By taking a short quiz, it recommends products specifically for your skin type from a huge selection of products. It’s like having a personal skincare consultant, in the comfort of your own home. You are also able to track which products are in your routine and keep notes on how each product is performing, or how your skin is feeling overall.
The app also updates every single month, so always be sure to update the app when its available!
How does the WAYSKIN measure your hydration?
There are 2 little dots on the backside of the device that send a tiny, harmless microcurrent through the skin. Since water conducts electricity, it measures how much water is in your skin and how well it conducts electricity, and then translates that into a skin score in the range of 0 to 100.
When do I use it?
We recommend testing your skin approximately 30 minutes after finishing your skincare routine – that way, your products have some time to absorb and you won’t get a false reading of the products sitting on the surface of your skin. In any case, do your ‘official,’ tracked Skin Scan reading at a consistent time of day to ensure accuracy.
You can also just check your hydration any time of the day, or even measure your friends’ hydration levels by using the ‘Quick Skin Scan’ function. These measurements won’t be tracked and won’t count towards your daily progress.
What is a good score?
The ‘normal’ range for skin is 40% to 60% hydration. The app also gives you the average score of all Wayskin users (if you want to get a little competitive).
