TODAY style editor Bobbie Thomas
In a market flooded with smart skincare solutions, it can be tough to figure out which type of product is right for you. TODAY style editor and Bobbie.com's Bobbie Thomas goes in-depth on the microcurrent trend, which can help you have smoother, younger looking skin.
Mindful masque
Circ Cell's impressive R.E.M. Masque-Serum features the latest in skin technology. It uses low electrical stimulation to activate frequencies similar to those produced by the brain during natural skin renewal and restoration processes. After five weeks, the energy-activated masque is said to rejuvenate the skin. ($35 and up; Circcell.com)
Rolling in the deep
The beauty industry has been buzzing about the latest in electronic products like the ReFa Roller Pro, a new tool that produces a low level microcurrent. When gently rolled over the face and body, the roller stimulates your own natural electric current, helping maintain your skin’s texture and keeping it tight and glowing. ($320; MTG)
RoC
Toning technology
For those who can't make frequent trips for spa treatments, there's a new FDA-cleared device from NuFace, a leader in the world of facial toning. With the quick push of a button, the NuFace Trinity gently stimulates skin to improve its appearance in just minutes a day. ($325; mynuface.com)
Current cosmetics
Last but not least, microcurrents have made their way onto drugstore shelves, with reliable brands like RoC introducing the Brilliance Collection. These creams feature a unique, cosmetic electro-stimulation called e-pulse, which works with the skin's natural process and can help quickly rejuvenate your look. ($19.99 and up; drugstore.com)

I realy loathe the idiots of the cosmetics industry. Unless it contains active working nanobots, that cr-p you apply to your face is NOT TECHNOLOGY. The electric current zapper is technology. 'Microbeads' are NOT technology, merely a product of technology. For the mentally impared out there, Technology is the making, usage, and knowledge of tools, machines, techniques, crafts, systems or methods of organization in order to solve a problem. the ridiculous cr-p they make, most of which does not work, isn't tech; it's expensive garbage. From this article, the zapper might actually do something, but if you understand anything at all about electicity, you'd know that an applied creme can't generate any kind od electric current on a level to do anything at all to your face.
