Video: A makeup artist tests out skincare beauty devices

Imagine that you had your very own cosmetic salon at home where you could pamper your skin and body in any way you wished. It doesn’t have to be just a dream. With home cosmetic devices, you can easily make this a reality, just like I did. The choice is staggering: galvanic spas, ultrasonic spatulas, cleansing brushes and light therapy devices. So whether you’re looking to deep-cleanse your skin or give it a little glow, these technological miracles are ready and waiting; you just need to make your choice!

The cosmetic devices worth trying out:

FOREO FAQ™ 202

Don’t let the price put you off; trust me that the FOREO FAQ™ 202 mask is really worth the investment. 600 points of light, light intensity at different wavelengths, wireless operation. What do you have to do? Put it onto a clean, dry face several times a week. That’s all. You will look a little like Hannibal Lecter, but never mind. Its non-slip headband and strap ensure that whilst the mask is reducing wrinkles, stimulating collagen production, unifying your skin tone and improving acne, you are able to lie down, watch TV or do some embroidery. No pain, only gain!

FOREO BEAR™ 2 eyes & lips

For this gadget, you’ll need to put a little more work in. If you want to get the most out of the FOREO BEAR™ 2 eyes & lips microcurrent toning device, use it every evening for 2 minutes. And after a week, the first amazing results will start to show. Simply apply a water-based gel around your eyes and lips and you’ll see – or rather, feel – the buzzing. The microcurrent will quickly restore your skin’s great condition. It smooths, firms, contours and improves product absorption. Makes that little bit of effort worth it, right? 

Concept Perfect Skin PO2030

The Concept Perfect Skin PO2030 ultrasonic spatula is a home electrical essential. It can do a great deal and is relatively cost-efficient. It will improve the quality and elasticity of your skin and cleanse it deeply and is great for working in a serum or cream, thereby boosting their effects. Don’t forget that when you’re using the spatula, your skin must always be wet to avoid irritation. My tip: Throw on a sheet mask and use the massage side of the spatula to massage your face over the sheet. That’s what I call a miracle in the making. 

Silk'n SkinVivid

The Silk'n SkinVivid massage device has many great benefits for your skin. You can choose between a hot and cold setting and fine-tune its sonic features. The hot massage supports blood circulation, relaxes the skin and aids better absorption of skincare products. The cold massage firms and smooths the skin. It’s also absolutely divine for headaches and swollen eyes. Whether they’re swollen from crying, parties or night shifts at work. The sonic vibrations further intensify all the effects. 

FOREO KIWI™ Derma

FOREO KIWI™ Derma is something of a mini skincare revolution. It can do almost anything. It cleanses clogged pores, reduces wrinkles, smooths the surface of your skin and even gets pigment spots under control. It just takes a bit of practice to use. If you don’t glide it smoothly over your skin and you “get stuck” in one spot, you might end up with bruises. So try practising first on your forearm, for example. After you’ve used it, your skin might be a bit red, so it’s a good  idea to perform the massage in the evening. Give your face a large dose of hydration to finish and in the morning you’ll wake up with dazzlingly lifted skin. 

And my final piece of advice? It’s worth remembering that to get great results you need to use these electronics systematically and regularly according to the instructions. They can’t do anything if they’re left in your bottom drawer, so be sure to put them to use.
