If you religiously follow a multi-step skincare routine (even after a night out), you’ve probably used an array of brilliant skincare tools such as jade rollers and gua sha wands. All wonderful, yes, but as with every other aspect of our lives, technology is transforming skincare. Treatments usually limited to clinics can now be part of your bedtime routine. From bacteria-fighting cleansers and facial sculpting devices to powerful anti-ageing LED light therapy, a host of at-home beauty tech now offers tailored skincare and spa-level pampering from the comfort of your bathroom. Here are some of our favourites.
Foreo Luna ceanser
Foreo’s range of professional-grade skincare tools is so extensive it’s enough to give your facialist cause for concern. The Swedish brand offers everything from a de-puffing toning device to facial cleansers and massagers. If you’re looking to ease yourself in, opt for its smart Luna cleanser. This egg-shaped silicone device features 16 adjustable vibration intensities and three cleansing modes to achieve the kind of clean you previously only thought possible post-peel. Use with your usual cleanser and apply your favourite moisturiser immediately after for radiant skin every day. Finish with a calming massage to eliminate visible puffiness.
Sepai boosters
La Mer is good and The Ordinary gets the job done but, when it comes to supercharging your skincare, it’s all about customisation. Founded in 2009, Spanish beauty brand Sepai offers a range of ‘boosters’ which allow you to tailor your skincare regime to your specific concerns. Skin lost its youthful plumpness? Pop a drop or two of Sepai’s Firm Pro booster in your night cream and wake to a magically-defined visage. Winter left your complexion pale and lifeless? Add a little Glow Pro to your daily serum to restore your skin’s natural radiance. Formulated with powerful ingredients, as well as being vegan and cruelty-free, the boosters are also designed to be mixed and matched so you can tackle specific concerns as and when needed. One size fits all is officially a thing of the past.
Dermalux Flex MD
You know that point in every facial when you’re left to relax, face generally slathered with numerous serums and masks, while coloured lights twinkle overhead? Well those lights are, in fact, therapeutic LEDs that are clinically proven to treat acne, pigmentation, reduce redness and boost collagen production. Powerful stuff. Now, you can bring the LED goodness home with Dermalux Flex MD. It uses a mix of blue, red and near infrared LED light to tackle a full span of dermatological issues. This is closest you’re going to come to a professional-level facial at home.
LYMA Laser starter kit
Arguably the most powerful device on this list, the Lyma Laser starter kit is a revolutionary non-invasive technology that uses cold near-infrared laser light to penetrate up to a depth of 10cm. The results? Deep bio-stimulation that remodels and rebuilds the skin from the base layer without any pain or damage. The device not only tightens the skin, it also stimulates skin rejuvenation and helps eliminate pigmentation, blemishes and wrinkles. Beloved by celebrities such as Carey Mulligan, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Naomie Harris, this is the easiest way to achieve professional results at home.
PMD Personal Microderm Elite Pro
Supercharge your daily exfoliation with PMD’s Personal Microderm Elite Pro. Combining vacuum suction with spinning discs embedded with aluminium oxide crystals, this microdermabrasion device helps exfoliate dead skin cells, promotes new cell growth, increases circulation and boosts collagen production. Gentle yet effective, trust us, you’ll never need another sugar scrub again.
Simplehuman trio touch control mirror
Struggling to do your makeup with the lack of natural light in London’s gloomy weather? Invest in a smart mirror to upgrade your makeup routine. Simplehuman’s trio touch control mirror not only simulates natural sunlight, but also features three mirrors that offer a range of magnification options. The 5x magnified side helps perfect your base and a mini 10x window helps with detailed looks while the reverse promises a true reflection for final checks.
NUFACE Trinity+ set
Where once anti-ageing treatments included plumping your face with botox, technological advancements have given rise to many effective non-invasive treatments. Case in point: the Trinity+ set from Nuface. The smart toning device comes with three microcurrent and LED red light attachments as well as multiple activators. Working together to tone, lift and contour your face and neck, use it daily for fresh, youthful and glowing skin.
