What is the difference between Refa cleansing instrument and Luna cleansing instrument?

Both the refa cleansing device and the luna cleansing device are well-known products and are very good choices, but there are some differences between them. So which one is better, the refa cleansing device or the luna cleansing device? What is the difference between Refa cleansing device and Luna?

Which is better, Refa or Luna?

Luna has a better price/performance ratio, and the vibration when it touches your face seems to have an acne-removing effect. I still like refa very much. It cleanses quickly and thoroughly. However, it seems that it is not as effective as luna in removing acne. I still get acne when I should have in half a year. Luna probably has a massage effect because it vibrates against the face over a large area, which is better for detoxification.

What is the difference between Refa cleansing instrument and Luna?

The Luna mini used in this evaluation is available in many models. Although Luna has many models, the basic principles are the same. The functions of different models are just increased or decreased, but it does not affect the cleansing effect.

1. Price

Refa: 1650rmb

Luna mini: 999rmb

2. Principle of facial cleansing instrument

Refa: Through the 0.2~0.3mm horizontal and 0.5mm vertical sound wave vibration, it can thoroughly clean the dirt in the small skin grooves and pores. At the same time, the effect of ions is maximized to prevent dirt from adhering again.

Luna mini: It acts vertically on the skin through vertical transdermal sonic pulsation technology, helping to clean dead corner impurities, excess oil and pollutant residues.

3. Cleansing instrument material

Refa: Kumano brush hair

Luna mini: Silicone

In terms of the materials of the two cleansing devices, the Kumano bristles used by Refa are much softer than the silicone of Luna. If you have sensitive skin or acne, you need to avoid sensitive and acne-prone areas when using Luna, but using Refa's soft brush head, you can use it on the entire face without any pressure. Therefore, it is recommended that people with very sensitive skin or acne-prone skin choose Refa, which will be more gentle.

4. Color

Refa: 1 color

Luna mini: 5 colors available

Compared with Luna, Refa's color selection is relatively simple, but Refa's design sense is very strong. For those fairies who have obsessive-compulsive disorder and don’t know what color to choose, you can directly use Refa.

5. Mode

Refa: 3 modes (soft clean deep)

Luna mini: 2 modes (clean soft)

Refa's three modes are:

Soft: Wash your face in the morning and cleanse when you are not wearing makeup

Clean: Night cleanser, suitable for thoroughly cleansing the skin after removing makeup

Deep: Deep cleansing of oily areas and areas with larger pores

Luna has two modes:

Clean: Clean the skin except the area around the eyes and sensitive areas

Soft: Cleanses the skin around the eyes and sensitive areas

Refa's three modes are all very gentle thanks to the Kumano bristles, so they can be used even around the eyes and on more sensitive skin. Luna's clean mode is very effective when cleaning the T-zone and skin with larger pores. It feels like all kinds of blackheads and whiteheads are shaken out immediately. If you have sensitive skin, I recommend Refa again. If you have better skin and are particularly obsessive-compulsive and need deep cleansing, Luna is more suitable. But what if you have sensitive skin and obsessive deep cleaning like me? Buy both!

6. Weight

Refa: 130g

Luna mini: 93g

The weight difference is not that big, but Refa itself comes with a charging stand, which plus the power cord and other things makes it much heavier than Luna.

7. Charging time

Refa: 6 hours

Luna mini: 2 hours

8. Voltage

Refa: Universal voltage

Luna mini: Universal voltage

9. How many times can you use it after charging once?

Refa: 14 times

Luna mini: 450 times

As far as I can remember, I have only charged Luna three times. It is truly a fighter among facial cleansing devices, with a standby capacity of 200 points. Refa's standby time is rather disappointing.

10. Charging method

Refa: Charging stand

Luna mini: Power cord directly connected to the cleansing device

11. Consumables

Refa: The brush head needs to be replaced every 3-5 months, and the price is about 230 RMB/piece

Luna mini: No need to replace consumables

Like Clarisonic, Refa's brush head needs to be replaced after about three months of use. In order to keep the brush head clean, you need to clean it regularly with facial cleanser and keep it dry to prevent bacteria from growing and directly affecting the skin. The silicone material of Luna is very advantageous in terms of cleaning and is very easy to keep dry. Lazy people can choose Luna, which is easy to clean and does not require the purchase of consumables. For delicate fairies, washing the brush head slowly for the sake of beautiful skin is not a problem at all.

12. Waterproof

Refa: The body of the facial cleanser is completely waterproof, but the charging stand is not.

Luna mini: completely waterproof

13. Every time you clean your face,

Refa: 1 minute

Luna mini: Pauses every 15 seconds to remind you to clean the next area. After 1 minute, 3 consecutive pauses indicate the end of the trial. Automatically shuts off after 3 minutes to prevent overuse

Maybe I was used to Luna, so when I used Refa, the biggest feeling I had was that it stopped before I finished brushing my face. Is it because my face is too big? After using it a few times, I realized that it was probably because the texture of the brush was too comfortable. I always felt that brushing for 1 minute was not enough. If the time could be adjusted to 1.5 minutes, it would be perfect. When I use Luna, I always feel that it takes too long. It feels like I can never finish washing my face. Why not adjust it to 1.5 minutes???

14. Convenience of carrying

Refa: The brush part needs to be protected

Luna mini: easy to carry

In order to protect the Refa's delicate Kumano brush head and the hygiene of the brush head, be sure to put the brush head in a small box or a clean small cloth bag when traveling. Due to the short standby time, it is best to carry the charging stand with you every time you go out. Relatively speaking, the portability of carrying Refa when traveling is less. The material of Luna silicone means that you can put it anywhere in your luggage as long as it is not placed next to sharp objects. When you arrive at your destination, you can take it out and wash it with hand sanitizer or facial cleanser. It is very convenient to take it on business trips or travel.

In short, both facial cleansers have their own irreplaceable advantages. If I have to choose one, I would probably choose Refa. Completely apart from the appearance, my skin is very sensitive, and Refa's brush head is really gentle. I can use it with confidence even when I have skin allergies. You no longer need to avoid cleaning the skin around acne when you encounter it like when using Luna. Of course, if you buy both, you can use Refa to clean delicate areas such as the area around the eyes and cheeks, and use Luna to clean the T-zone that is more prone to blackheads.

After the evaluation, go ahead and weed according to your needs!
