Customers frequently mention how easy it is to use and clean the Serum Booster. They also appreciate its benefits for skin care. However, some customers find the vibration feature to be pointless as it is barely noticeable.

Good travel massager

This Vanity Planet massager is small enough to fit quite comfortably in my hand. It has 2 speeds - low and high. There are 2 modes - cleansing and moisturizing. I can’t feel the difference between the two. It can assist in the application of my moisturizer, however I can just as easily spread it with my fingers. I don’t know that it makes my skin any softer using this. However the vibrations definitely cause increased circulation. I felt slightly tingly in the area where I had used the massager. It actually feels good. I love a massage!!
2 AAA batteries are required. The batteries are not included and aren’t mentioned anywhere on the box. The enclosed User Guide mentions the massagers “sensor strips”. I see them but have no idea what they do, if anything.
This is a basic massager that is comfortable to hold and can be used on the face as well as other body parts. I also use it to message the palm of my hands where I have some arthritis and it seems to lessen the pain. It has a nicely shaped flat head that causes good contact with my skin. I would recommend this, not as a ”serum booster” but as a mini massager that can help to increase circulation.

My wife loves trying out new skin care / cosmetic items and once she saw the Vanity Planet Serum Booster she had to try. The review that follows is from her experience with using the device.
First impression:
I was surprised that the Serum Booster was so light and small, it’s easy to hold on to and the smaller stainless steel plate is nice as it’s easy to get in around eyes and corners around nose. There’s an instruction manual in the box “please do read it”, and nothing else, you have to supply 2 AAA batteries.
Using:
There are two main settings Cleaning and Moisturizing, each of those have a Hi/Low setting. I like to use Albolene cleanser after work to remove makeup and using the “clean” setting, seems to make the Albolene easier to spread around, and the vibration “especially on high” also seems to help break down the makeup.
Then I set the device to “Moisturize” and use my Hyaluronic Acid, or Ponds moisturizer with it to spread the cream around. It does seem to sort of liquefy the creams better than just spreading with my fingertip and it also seems to soak in faster when using the device.
Impression:
I like this little Serum Booster, it does seem to help improve products I’m already using, and I’ve noticed that it sort of tingles when going over my nose “don’t really feel that anywhere else on my face. After using my face does feel a little refresher and when I just do it by hand so I’m planning on using this for a long time. It’s easy to use and very easy to clean up, for the price it’s definitely worth giving it a try.

So this review is really focused in on my first week of usage... I admit, that this is probably going to take some time... as well as is dependent on other factors.
First impressions... It just feels like an inexpensive gadget.
The packaging, was basic. while it kept the product safe, was completely crushed in shipping.
the device itself.. no batteries supplied, you need to supply your own AAA batteries. Just in today's device world, for this not to be a USB charged item, or have basic batteries included, just seemed odd
Okay.. .so was all set to use it... and well found out that I needed to purchase Cleansing solution or Moisturizing product... I wasn't expecting that. So did get some... and honestly, I think my results are going to totally depend on the product I use along with the device.
Using the device itself... very easy. On-Off, Level 1 or Level 2, and mode. Really easy.. single button. Easy to know if it is on and off.
Very easy to place on the face, light and easy to hold...
I have used it for several days... and can't really tell if it is making a difference yet, but going to continue to try and use..
We will see. It is a low cost option, that can have benefits... but... it is going to take time to really tell. Not a quick fix, overnight improvement... so will continue to use, and see where it goes.

Nice facial massager for boosting serum levels as the name implies. Small and smooth head provides gentle vibrations on either low or high setting. These vibrations assist in working your favorite skin care product into the skin whilst boosting serum levels as well as increased comfort and vanity to yourself. I never realized what a difference the vibrations can make on the overall feeling of your skin and absorption of product. This is definitely a neat little device that I enjoy on a daily basis.

The unit is very simple to operate. It is easy to store in the bathroom (not needing a charger), so it is very accessible for use, I do not have a problem with using batteries (they are great for travel) although plug-in capability would be nice. It glides well and vibrates at a level that is comfortable. It cleans easily. Cleansers, serums and moisturizers seem to absorb better and more quickly than when I apply them manually. It feels good to the face. All said, over the long run, it should improve my facial circulation and lines based on my current experience.

Works well, could be a little strong

This serum booster works well, is easy to get going and easier to use. The only real draw back is that it would be nice if it was able to be a little stronger for around the cheek bones and other harder areas, but it still works very well for most applications. Very nice unit and will definitely bring your skin care routine to another level!

The Vanity Planet - Serum Booster is a handheld skin rejuvenator. It’s small and convenient. Initial use was a little confusing (button functions) but I eventually figured it out. It has several different settings to massage the skin in your face. It works as intended and can’t really complain about that but I have one major issue with the battery cover. It comes off too easy. The battery cover is in the back and rests in your palm and this device vibrates constantly causing the battery cover to pop off every single time. It is very annoying to have to keep putting the cover back on. For an example the battery cover on my remote for my tv gives a solid snap when putting the cover on, this however does not and you can tell it is not secure.

Facial massager, not much else

It does not really do what it claims. It says it helps absorb the serums, but it just vibrates on your face. After using it, there were many spots on my face where I had to pat the lotion that had built up. You can get the same effect by using a lotion roller.
It has 2 settings, one is for "cleanse" and one is for "moisturize". They both literally do the exact same thing. They vibrate low and high. The low vibration setting for both modes don't feel effective at all. You have go use the high setting to feel that is doing anything.
Overall, I think you may get some satisfaction by using this on your face, however I don't think it has much use as a beauty product.

Used this to apply some of the moisturizers and serums. I didn't really notice anything mind blowing but for this cost I wasn't expecting much. No real difference than applying it normally other than it feels good on the face.

Makes spreading product easy

This serum booster makes spreading product on the face a breeze. Simply put whatever cream your using on the small metal pad and turn it on. It is small and is convenient to take places if you are traveling. My only complaint about it is that it feels cheaply made. Not sure if this device will stand up for the long haul.

Really Works

I wasn't convinced this would do much for the serum I put on my face. I thought it would get all over this booster. Not so. Not only does the serum not stick to the unit, it really does something. 5 hours after using this, my face was soft and moist... still. This is now a requirement when using serum.

I'm not sure how I feel about this product yet. The serums seem to dry out before I finish. Maybe I'm going to slow? Not giving up yet. I want to really like this product.
