Beauty Gadgets That Actually Work (And Which to Skip)
The beauty tech market is exploding — and so is the price tag. We tested the most popular beauty gadgets to find out which ones are worth your hard-earned money.
Buy These ✅
LED Light Therapy Mask
Red light for collagen, blue light for bacteria. Clinical studies back this up. The omnilux and Dr. Dennis Gross masks are the most tested — but budget options work too if they use medical-grade LEDs.
Microcurrent Device (NuFace / Foreo Bear)
Temporary lifting and toning that actually shows. Results last 24-48 hours, so consistency is key. Best for jawline definition and brow lifting.
High-Speed Hair Dryer
The Dyson Supersonic changed the game, but the Laifen and Shark SpeedStyle offer 90% of the performance at half the price. Faster drying = less heat damage.
Skip These ❌
Ice Rollers
A cold spoon works the same way. Don't spend $25 on something that costs $0.50 to DIY.
RF (Radiofrequency) Devices at Home
The at-home versions are too weak to be effective, and improper use can cause fat loss in unwanted areas. Leave this to the professionals.
