Seven At-Home Beauty Devices You Know You Need

Today, I’m having happy hour with friends wearing my LED 7-Color Mirabella Facial Mask with Near Infrared—my countenance lit up like Christmas lights. Yesterday, I buzzed my NuFace Trinity over my jaw and cheekbones while commuting. The day before, I stroked my neck with my GLO24K beauty device while walking the dog. Once, with video off, I attended a Zoom meeting and used a variety of devices as I listened to colleagues argue. My biggest problem every day is deciding which miraculous at-home beauty machine to switch on and when to use it.

Not so long ago, treatments from LED masks to microcurrent firming devices lived only in the domain of the spa or medical office. Lucky for those of us looking for do-it-yourself ease and self-care, many noninvasive, results-driven, beauty-supporting machines have been FDA-cleared for at-home use. We love them because they provide a natural boost, a small correction—not a completely new look. Best of all, they pair effectively with the clean products we already love and use at home, from creams to serums. Since they take only a few minutes a day, they save us time—not to mention money—and put pursuit of beauty into our hands allowing us to customize our rituals. Ready to get started? Read on to learn about some of our favorites.

1. Stick Your Neck Out

With cutting-edge LED infrared technology GLO24K’s triple action beauty devices for face and neck detoxify, stimulate skin cells, encourage collagen production, and brighten. They fight wrinkles and age spots while smoothing skin. Also harnessing the powers of 24K gold cream and special thermal and vibration technologies, the easy-to-use and easy-to-pack skin machines generate age-fighting benefits.

2. Light Therapy

Illuminate your visage with skincare brand Mirabella’s LED 7-Color Facial Mask with Near Infrared. Safe, easy, fun, with its Halloween costume vibes, this medical-grade LED mask has seven light treatment options including red, blue, green, yellow, cyan, purple, and orange—each directed to address different skincare issues. Whether using to calm skin, fight acne, combat wrinkles, increase cell renewal, eradicate redness, or lighten hyperpigmentation, this comfy mask has a hue for you. Wear it for just 10 minutes a day for radiant results in as little as a month. Silicone goggles included.

3. No More Peach Fuzz

Minimally invasive, dermaplaning exfoliates and removes unwanted hair. It has been used to reduce the appearance of acne scars and brighten the skin. With DermaFlash and DermaFlash Luxe+, you can give yourself this professional-grade, anti-aging treatment at home. Powered by sonic edge technology and a microfine edge (patented to prevent nicks and cuts), it instantly improves skin texture, minimizes lines and wrinkles, and sculpts skin.

4. Cleaner Teeth

Does anybody really like to floss? Stand ready to change your mind. Enter: the Slate Electric Flosser, a dentist-designed, 3-in-1 tool that reaches hard-to-floss areas. Boasting an innovative floss head that vibrates at 12,000 sonic vibrations per minute, the device glides between teeth, cleaning them as it massages and stimulates gums. Said to eliminate future tooth decay, the flosser fights bacteria and plaque. Touted for its sustainability, Slate uses replaceable heads, a boon since the average person flossing uses some 700, non-environmentally friendly floss picks per year.

5. Skim and Clear

Some devices you don’t know you need until you try them. Sonicskim resembles that remark. A multifunction wand, Sonicskim brings Michael Todd’s Soniclear technology to play with this beauty machine. Like a little shovel with ultra-sound frequency vibrations and ions, the spatula manages some 27,000 movements per minute—though it feels like a tickle. As you “scoop,” it gently and effectively pushes blackheads and dirt from the skin. The Sonicskim tones, shapes, and massages the face.

6. Eco Conscious Beauty

Green beauty maven Tata Harper promotes natural skincare with both modern science and ancient principles to achieve visible results. Its ethos “not a drop of synthetic chemicals” makes for guilt-free at-home treatments, as good for you as the world. Choose from an assortment of delights, such as: Tata x Lure Facial Cupping Set (facial cupping promotes circulation and supports lymphatic drainage), Sculpting Body Stone (a spa-grade tool to tone for a lifted look), Crystal Gua Sha Spoon (made from jade to depuff), and Dry Body Brush (to promote circulation).

7. All Body Love

Take the half face test. For sceptics, the best way to discover the uplifting power of NuFace, an FDA-cleared microcurrent skin-toning device, is push NuFace upward on one side of the face first, elevating jowls, cheeks, eyebrows, and forehead per the instructions. Five minutes later, you’ll be mind-blown by how much higher and firmer that side appears. Long beloved by estheticians for its instant results, NuFace has become an integral step in signature facials at spas around the world. Founded some two decades ago by Carol Cole and her two daughters, Kim and Tera, NuFace reigns as the first handheld micro-current device in the beauty industry. But wait, there’s more. Answering customersʻ prayers for a microcurrent machine that would fight body sag, the company launched NuBody, the first, at-home skin toning device for the whole physique. Designed for firmer, denser areas, it firms skin and targets cellulite and dimpling on the thighs, buttocks, tummy, waist, and upper arms.
