Technology is exponentially boosting our capacity to perform at-home skincare routines once available only at the salon, the dermatologist's, or the plastic surgeon's office.
Now, instead of investing thousands of dollars and several months, if not years, into healthy skin and a youthful glow, we can spend a few hundred dollars online and receive an immediate return on our investment with stunning results.
We've compiled a list of beauty gadgets just for you and for your skincare routine. Here are your magnificent seven:
1. THREE! FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!
Let's start with a clean palette: Clarisonic's Mia Smart 3-in-1 Connected Beauty Device
Oh, wait! Skin cleansing is just one of the three options available to you. This cute-as-a-button beauty gadget offers two additional features. Mia Smart recognizes its attachments and adjusts accordingly to provide a firming massage or makeup blending in addition to its cleansing mode.
Smartphone savvy? Yes! Mia Smart connects to the Clarisonic app where you can upload skincare routines and track progress. The device itself is smart, as well, timing your skincare routines for you.
2. ZAP WRINKLES IN A WINK OF AN EYE!
Are you stretched for time? But still want to look stress-free: LightStim for Wrinkles
You've heard of LED light therapy and watched videos of people shining large red lights on their faces for what seems like a long time. Well, LightStim offers a quicker and lighter method to deliver a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.
Handheld and portable, LightStim only needs three minutes to treat an area. Pop it in your purse and take a LED light lunch break during your day.
3. TURN ON THE RADIO!
We don't want a facelift. We want to look like we don't need one: MLAY Radio Frequency Face Lifting Beauty Care Device
While heating up skin tissue to produce more collagen, radiofrequency skin tightening plumps out wrinkles AND reduces fat.
After you finish your at-home facelift, you can apply MLAY's Radio Frequency to the rest of your body to reduce saggy skin and cellulite.
2 Years! Yes, results can last up to two years! And you'll start seeing results in only two weeks.
4. BEAUTY SLEEP!
What if we could sleep our way to healthier skin and hair? With the help of an assistant: O2 Vibe Sleep & Fitness Monitor
Accessorize your pajamas with the adorable and comfortable thumb sensor and discover the secrets your body keeps while asleep. SpO2 sleep monitor helps you track how healthy habits impact sleep quality.
And guess what comes with better sleep? You got it: more collagen, glowing skin, less puffiness, fuller hair, and an overall healthy appearance.
As if sleeping better weren't enough, the O2 Vibe also monitors fitness when you're awake! Two-for-one!
5. SELFIE SKINCARE!
Can your smartphone recommend a good moisturizer for your skin type? Now, it can: Olay Skin Advisor
After you snap your selfie and tell Olay your current skincare routine, Olay's AI will tell you your skin age AND provide a personalized skincare routine. Okay, Olay!
Olay Skin Advisor is 99% precise in analyzing your face's five aging areas. Plus, 94% of clients have agreed with Olay's AI recommendations. Ready for your close-up?
6. MASK ME!
Just what you've always wanted... a personalized, 3D-printed face mask delivered to your front door: Neutrogena MaskiD
Neutrogena is leveraging 2018's big hit Skin360 to scan your skin and whip up a perfect concoction for your very own color-coded face mask. Neutrogena 3D prints your mask and sends it to you for onetime use. After all, your skin changes all of the time.
There's only one catch: you'll have to sign up with Neutrogena's website to be the first to know when the technology is available, later this year.
7. MY BUDDY, MY PAL!
Have we mentioned skincare? Did we mention exercise: MyFitnessPal
"A beauty gadget?" you ask.... Well, MyFitnessPal is an app AND a website. And I'll bet you already knew that physical activity promotes healthy circulation, which keeps your skin bright and healthy. It's all about blood flow!
Plus, working out decreases stress, and with less stress, we'll have fewer stress-induced conditions like acne and eczema.
