How to Use the Viveca Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing Brush — Step-by-Step Guide

Why Use Viveca for Your Second Cleanse

Viveca combines high-frequency ultrasonic, LED light therapy, 3D vibration and galvanic-ion technology to lift impurities from deep within pores and prepare skin for better absorption of skincare. It’s especially effective as part of a double cleanse — use your oil cleanser first to remove SPF and makeup, then use Viveca with a gentle gel or foam cleanser for the second cleanse.

• Deeper clean, less effort: even coverage around the nose, chin and hairline.
• Refines texture: helps remove excess oil and dulling build-up without harsh scrubs.
• Boosts absorption: prepares the skin so serums and moisturisers can work harder.

How Often Should I Use Viveca?

For most skin types, use Viveca 3–4 times per week, ideally in the evening. If you’re very oily or wear heavy makeup, you may prefer every other day. If your skin is dry, sensitive or using strong actives, reduce frequency as needed.

What You’ll Need

• Your Viveca Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing Brush (charged)
• Oil/balm or micellar water for the first cleanse (evenings)
• Gentle gel or foaming cleanser for the second cleanse
• Lukewarm water and a soft towel

How to Use Viveca — Step-by-Step

1. First cleanse (evening): Remove makeup and SPF with an oil cleanser or micellar water; rinse with lukewarm water.
2. Apply cleanser: On damp skin, apply a small amount of gentle gel/foam cleanser.
3. Power on: Press and hold the power button for ~2 seconds. Choose your preferred intensity (start low if you’re new).
4. Glide, don’t scrub: Move the silicone bristles in small circles. Spend ~10–15 seconds per area: forehead, nose & chin, each cheek.
5. Edge work: Angle slightly to clean around the nostrils and hairline; avoid the eye area.
6. Rinse: Rinse your face thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry. Rinse the device head under running water.
7. Proceed to skincare: Apply serum while skin is slightly damp, then moisturiser.

Post-Cleanse Care

After cleansing, apply your preferred serum and moisturiser. For best results with the Pure Tone routine, follow with your targeted serum, then moisturiser. If you’re using the Energy Skincare approach (Cleanse → Treat & Infuse → LED → Moisturise), this step sets you up perfectly.

How to Clean and Store Your Device

• Rinse the silicone head under lukewarm water to remove cleanser residue.
• Pat dry with a towel; allow to air-dry fully.
• Wipe the handle with a soft cloth. Store in a dry area.
• Charge as needed so it’s ready for your next routine.

Troubleshooting Tips

• Skin feels tight or dry: reduce frequency to 2–3× weekly; check you’re using a mild cleanser and lukewarm water.
• Breakouts increase: ensure makeup/SPF is removed in the first cleanse; sanitise the device head regularly; avoid pressing too hard.
• Redness after use: shorten cleansing time and lower intensity; avoid acids/retinoids the same night.
• Foam disappears quickly: add more water rather than more cleanser; foam helps the device glide without tugging.
