If you have sensitive skin, it's important to take a few precautions to ensure a comfortable experience with your GoBe U Smart Life Band.

Tips for Sensitive Skin

Avoid Moisturizers:
Do not apply creams, oils, or cosmetics to the skin underneath the device sensors, as these can interfere with readings and may contribute to irritation.

After Exercise or Water Exposure:
Make sure to wipe and dry both your wrist and the inside of the band after workouts, showers, or swimming. Excess moisture can lead to discomfort or skin sensitivity.

Skin Conditions:
Tattoos, scars, wounds, inflammation, or skin disorders may affect measurement accuracy and, in rare cases, cause skin reactions.

Know the Materials in Contact with Your Skin:


The GoBe U Smart Band is made with materials that are generally considered hypoallergenic:

  • Bioimpedance sensor contact pad: Titanium

  • Optical heart rate sensor: Polycarbonate plastic

  • Device case: ABS plastic with hypoallergenic coating

  • Strap: Silicone

  • Buckle: Anodized aluminum

While these materials are safe for most users, if you've experienced contact dermatitis or skin irritation from wearable devices in the past, please take care when first using GoBe U.

By following these tips, you can help ensure a safe and comfortable experience with your smart band.
