Nowadays, technology plays a vital role in the beauty realm, with gadgets becoming the latest craze to grace the counters.
Here is just a selection of some of the latest options set to change your face for the better.
O Cosmetics O Sonic, $105
A gadget to change up your cleansing regime, the O Sonic uses a combination of sonic pulsations and silicone fibre touchpoint to wash away those nasty impurities. And for all those germaphobes who gasp at the thought of all that built-up grime, this is 35% more hygienic than any other cleansing brush on the market. With up to 8,000 pulsations per minute at three speeds, they gently remove dead skin cells and stimulate blood supply for softness and a radiant glow in just two minutes a day. The deep cleansing pulsations also unclogs pores up to 99.5% and removes make up residue by 98.5%. Talk about clean.
NuFace Trinity Device, $483
Want a five minute face lift at home? Believe it or not, this little horned device literally lifts and sculpts your sagging skin like a face lift. An award-winning anti-ageing device that gives a non-invasive facial lift, it uses micro-current technology to penetrate deep to the muscular level; improving facial contour, skin tone and flattens out the look of wrinkles. Whilst the results aren’t permanent, if you ‘lift’ five days a week for two months, you’ll have a positively contoured guise. It’s like a gym workout for your face – without the blood, sweat and tears.
Braun Silk-Expert IPL Hair Removal System $999
This Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 at home IPL device is one seriously clever dude. Delivering up to 400,000 flashes (equivalent to full body treatments for up to 22 years), the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 PL5137 IPL Hair Removal System provides reliable and long-lasting performance even through regular usage. Pain-free, safe and you can treat facial hair in minutes or even your arm or leg hair. Laser hair appointment after laser hair appointment? We think not – relax at home with a Pinot whilst you zap away.
CoolSculpting, $1000
Want to lose that double chin? Well, now you can. For good. You may have heard of the wonders of CoolSculpting, a fat loss treatment which freezes your fat then emits the fat cells from your body naturally, but now there is a tool for shaping you face, in particular a carefully, contoured neck. The CoolMini applicator targets those double (or triple, or quadruple) chins and banishes the bulge forever. This isn’t a take home tool, but this little beauty gadget is non-evasive, with no surgery or downtime and you only require a few visits – we think that’s definitely worth a trip to your nearest clinic. Prices will vary.
