It sits between the device head and your skin so energy transfers cleanly instead of scattering at the air gap, and the device glides rather than drags. Lightweight, non-sticky and easy to rinse, it comes in a 300 mL bottle, single or two-pack, for face, neck and body use with devices whose manufacturer calls for a water-based conductive or coupling gel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy you'll love it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne gel for four device types: it carries current for RF, EMS and microcurrent and couples ultrasound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlides instead of dragging, so the head keeps moving and coverage stays even\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater-based, oil-free and non-sticky, with hyaluronic acid, glycerin, peptides and amino acids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinses off with lukewarm water or a damp cloth, no cleanser needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe intended medium for the EvenSkyn Lumo⁺, Phoenix, Venus and Eclipse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat a conductive gel actually does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnergy-based skincare devices have to make contact with skin to work, and air is the enemy of that contact. Air conducts electrical current poorly and transmits ultrasound poorly, so even a thin film of air between the device head and your face interrupts the transfer. A water-based gel displaces that air, fills the microscopic texture of the skin surface and gives the device a continuous path into the tissue. It also provides slip, which is why a treatment with gel feels smooth and a treatment without one feels like dragging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConductivity and coupling are not the same thing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo products can both be called gel and do different jobs. The distinction is worth understanding before you buy anything, including this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical conduction\u003c\/strong\u003e is what RF, microcurrent and EMS devices need. Current has to pass from the electrode into the skin, so the medium between them has to carry current rather than block it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic coupling\u003c\/strong\u003e is what ultrasound devices need. Sound waves reflect almost entirely at an air boundary, so the medium's job is to match the device head to the skin and let the waves through.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlip\u003c\/strong\u003e matters for all of them. A medium that grips or dries mid-session forces you to press harder, which is uncomfortable and makes coverage uneven.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA water-based gel can serve all three roles. An oil, a balm or a thick occlusive cream generally cannot, because oils do not carry current well. That is the practical reason your device manual tells you to skip facial oils before a session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich devices this is made for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRF (radio frequency):\u003c\/strong\u003e the gel carries current and keeps contact as the head moves. Check first: your manual may specify a minimum layer thickness so the head does not run dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicrocurrent:\u003c\/strong\u003e it carries a low-level current between two electrodes without breaking contact. Both electrodes need coverage, not just the leading one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e it carries current to the muscle-stimulating electrodes.

A generous, unbroken layer matters more here than with electrical devices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the EvenSkyn range, this gel is the intended medium for the Lumo⁺ (RF, EMS and light therapy), the Phoenix microcurrent bar, the Venus eye device and the Eclipse (ultrasound, EMS and light). If you own a device from another brand, read the next section before assuming it transfers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility, stated honestly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour device manufacturer's instructions come first, always. Some manufacturers specify a proprietary medium, some specify a formulation type rather than a brand, and a few warn against particular ingredient categories. If your manual names a required product, follow the manual and not this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a manufacturer simply calls for a water-based conductive or coupling gel without naming a brand, this product is formulated for that role. We are not able to confirm compatibility with every device on the market, and we would rather say so than claim a blanket guarantee. If you are unsure about a specific device, email support@evenskyn.com and we will tell you what we do and do not know.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much to use, and when to reapply\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse enough that the device head never runs dry against bare skin. In practice that means a visible layer you can still see after the head has passed over it, not a thin sheen that disappears on contact. If the device starts to drag, or you hear or feel the head catching, you have run out of medium in that zone and should add more before continuing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGel absorbs and evaporates as you work, so longer sessions and larger areas need reapplication partway through. Treating in small zones, and topping up per zone, gives more consistent coverage than trying to cover the whole face in one pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCleanup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse with lukewarm water, or wipe with a damp cloth. No cleanser is needed for removal, though you can follow with your normal routine. Some users prefer to leave a light residue and let it absorb rather than rinsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich pack to choose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single 300 mL bottle suits one device used on the face. The two-pack, 600 mL in total, costs less per mL than two single bottles and suits body treatments, two devices or frequent sessions. How long a bottle lasts depends on your device, treatment area and session length, so we do not publish a cost-per-treatment figure we cannot stand behind. Current prices for both packs are in the purchase options above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs ultrasound gel the same as conductive gel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot necessarily. Clinical ultrasound gels are formulated for acoustic coupling in a diagnostic setting and are often unscented, uncosmetic and intended to be wiped off entirely. A skincare conductive gel is formulated to sit on the face, feel comfortable and work with electrical devices as well as ultrasound ones. Both can transmit ultrasound. They are not interchangeable in every direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I actually need gel, or can I run my device dry?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCheck your manual. Most RF, microcurrent, EMS and ultrasound devices are designed to be used with a medium, and some will not complete a circuit without one. Running a device dry is also uncomfortable and can pull at the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use it around my eyes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollow the guidance for your specific device. Devices designed for the eye area, such as the Venus, have their own instructions for that zone. Devices not designed for the eye area should not be brought there regardless of what medium you use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work for body treatments as well as the face?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Larger areas simply use more product, which is where the two-pack tends to make sense.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EvenSkyn®","offers":[{"title":"1 x 300mL bottle","offer_id":43664843669763,"sku":"EVN021","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 x 300mL bottles","offer_id":43664843702531,"sku":"EVN021-2","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/0013\/6360\/files\/Evenskynultrasoundrfradiofrequencyconductiongelmedium_1080x1080px.jpg?v=1776908490","url":"https:\/\/www.evenskyn.com\/sv\/products\/evenskyn-microcurrent-rf-conduction-gel","provider":"EVENSKYN® ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
