These Are the Beauty Devices Truly Worth Investing In This Black Friday

The LYMA Laser is a handheld device that delivers medical-grade cold-laser technology to deeply stimulate skin regeneration—with none of the pain, heat or downtime of conventional clinic lasers. It comes with some pretty impressive stats, too: read all about it in our full LYMA laser review. Two editors put it to the test and found that skin appeared firmer, more radiant and even-toned—pigmentation softened, fine lines reduced and overall glow revived.

I’m a big advocate of Gua Sha—the Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that uses a smooth-edged tool to sculpt and depuff the face—and I have a number of jade and rose quartz versions on rotation. This heated, LED Gua Sha takes the practice to the next level, blending tradition with innovation through red, pink and blue light modes, plus gentle heat and vibration to support lymphatic drainage and enhance glowing results.

This advanced skincare device combines two technologies in one. First, the InstaChill Cold Technology helps to combat puffiness (a godsend for tired eyes) and improve luminosity and glow, while the 480 LED lights (in red, blue and infrared wavelengths) provide multi-action benefits from firming to improving skin tone and enhancing overall radiance.

This little device takes your cleansing routine to the next level, using T-Sonic pulsations to help temporarily dilate pores and lift away impurities from deep within. It’s the perfect pick for anyone prone to congestion and breakouts, or city dwellers looking to wash away the day’s buildup of pollution.

For full face, neck, and chest rejuvenation, this LED device duo delivers impressive results—reducing wrinkles by up to 30% and improving skin plumpness by 57% after eight weeks of use. It harnesses clinically proven wavelengths (red, near-infrared, and the new deep near-infrared) to target crepey skin, calm redness, and smooth fine lines for a visibly firmer, more even complexion.

"Firstly, I get the mother of all painful, inflamed chin spots around the time of my period, but within the first few days of using this mask these were visibly more reduced and it happened quickly," says Lucy Abbersteen in her review of the Current Body LED Mask for Marie Claire UK. "After just over a week, I noticed that some of the redness in my skin had lessened, and after a fortnight it felt a little firmer. On a practical level, I also like that the treatment time is just 10 minutes; this made it easy to factor into my evening routine while I wound down before bed, and I found the light had a kind of calming effect."

This more affordable LED mask delivers serious innovation thanks to four LED wavelengths (red, purple, yellow and blue) to target everything from the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, to breakouts and uneven skin tone.

This FDA-approved, clinically proven device harnesses microcurrent technology to tone and sculpt the skin, offering three intensity levels and a built-in sensor to ensure consistent results. After just five days, 90% of users reported a lifted appearance, while 93% noticed a visible reduction in deep lines and wrinkles.

"After the facial, the activator gel has absorbed fully and my skin looked like I’d just had an hour facial rather than a 12-minute at-home treatment," says JAzzira Harris, in her review of the Starter Kit. "In terms of sculpting, I’d say there was a slight lift even after one treatment, especially around my jawline. Sign me up as another Nuface fan."

The kit includes both the Aqua Gel Activator and the Firming & Brightening Silk Crème Activator, which prep the skin for treatment while simultaneously nourishing it.

The trial results on this clever, compact device are nothing short of impressive. Clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and improve skin firmness in just one week, 98% of users also reported that their skin looked brighter, plumper, more nourished and supple. Using a combination of microcurrent and T-Sonic massage technology, this device helps stimulate and tone facial muscles while promoting lymphatic drainage—all in a compact design that fits neatly in the palm of your hand.

Designed to visibly smooth and lift, you can use this tool in conjunction with your skincare to enhance the absorption of your serums. Suitable for all skin types, it also massages whilst brightening the skin.

"This is the LED mask I use daily and it has made such a noticeable difference to my complexion," says Amelia Yeomans, Junior Shopping Editor. "I took a two-week break from it on a recent holiday, and my breakouts and dullness came back in full force, and were kept at bay again once I was home and regularly using this mask again. Each treatment only takes three minutes, a single charge lasts for weeks, and you can choose between red light for firming and blue light for blemishes and discolouration."
