Serum Serum Serum is too much Money Money Money

I recently started trying micro current for a spin and got the Foreo Bear, which came with a sample of Serum Serum Serum. However, as much as I love the conductive serum, it is crazy expensive! Does anyone have suggestions for other serums or gels that have a lot of slip, no harsh actives like retinol or AHAs etc, and are water based and contain no oils? If it has oils it won't be conductive, and it needs a lot of slip to glide the device smoothly over the skin. I know aloe gel is often recommended, but I find it makes my skin sensitive, and although I could just get conductive gel used for ultrasounds etc but it's actually a bit difficult to get, and if I could find something that does not potentially clog my pores or gives my skin other benefits it would be better. I did see on an online forum that some people suggested trying the innisfree green tea seed serum, or the vichy mineral 89 serum. Any other suggestions?

I use the Aromatica Cica gel as I react badly to the Nuface gel and it works fine.

I'm such a sucker for anything with cica. I'm definitely adding this to the list. Thank you!

So I follow an aesthetician (penn Smith) that shows you how to do microneedling yourself. I follow her protocols and she uses this serum as a slip since it’s got no actives, only 3 ingredients. I’m not sure where you’re from, but I can get this on amazon for around $10.

Thank you! This is exactly the sort of thing I was looking for, and it's definitely available here. Brilliant! I might have to follow that aesthetician too!

I don't have the Foreo Bear but I've seen my fave skincare guru use the Treatment from Rovectin + a thermal water mist with it. It's a huge bottle and does the job perfectly apparently. He said the Foreo serum is not good.

Oh brilliant! I actually just got a sample size of the Rovectin, so I'll have to try it out! Thank you!

You know I've used this serum before and somehow it completely slipped my mind as a good alternative. Thank you for the suggestion!
