Cyber Monday Is the Time to Invest in Beauty Tools—I'm Considering These 17
Photo:
@eleanorvousdenBeauty tools are one of the best investments you can make in your routine. While serums and moisturisers can only reach the surface levels on your skin, skincare tools allow you to supercharge your routine by lifting, sculpting and enhancing the absorption of your skincare.
Take LED (aka, light emitting diode) devices, which use light wavelengths to kick-start collagen and treat acne breakouts from the inside out, or a microcurrent facial tool that whips facial muscles into shape. Sure, you can get these professional treatments in clinics, but there's nothing like the convenience of having an at-home device in your arsenal. And don't forget hair tools. A new hair dryer or hairstyler is most definitely an investment purchase, but Cyber Monday is the prime time to snap up a deal to unlock your best hair yet.
With Cyber Monday now here, I've bookmarked some of the best beauty tools, devices and gadgets that I've found on sale.

This isn't a drill—the Dyson AirWrap has £80 off on John Lewis & Partners right now. If you're wondering 'Is the Dyson AirWrap worth it?' you can read our honest review here, but spoiler alert: I think it is. If you want bouncy blowouts all day, every day, this is a good investment. Plus, I rarely see the Dyson AirWrap discounted, so now is the time to go for it if you've been thinking about it.
The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer also has £30 off on John Lewis & Partners if you've been thinking about getting a new hair dryer. In my opinion, this investment purchase will serve you well if you're looking for the best hair dryer to last you for many years to come. The technology ensures your hair is dry in minutes, leaving a professional-looking result every time. Read our honest review on the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer here.
OK, wow. You can get £100 off the Dyson Corrale Straighteners on John Lewis & Partners. These quite possibly be the best straighteners I've tried for creating straight and sleek styles and well as creating curls. They're also cordless, making them so easy to use and travel with, too.
I put one of Déesse Pro's famed LED masks to the test earlier this year for two weeks, and it's safe to say I was so impressed with the results on my skin. (You can read my LED mask review here.) Yes, they are expensive, but if you've been thinking of investing in an LED mask, Déesse Pro's has 30% off on Face The Future. It helps improve acne by killing blemish-causing bacteria, boosts collagen and helps to treat pigmentation too. My skin has genuinely never looked better than when I put this to the test.
Dr. Dennis Gross's LED mask is a more affordable option and helps to plump wrinkles from the inside out and fend off acne-causing bacteria. On Look Fantastic it has a huge saving of £70. It's currently sold out, but the website says that more stock is coming soon...
If you're a fan of FaceGym's viral facial workouts, then this one is for you. This device also uses electrical currents to lift the muscles to achieve a firming and sculpted look. FaceGym describes it as a power plate workout for your face, and I definitely want in. It's currently on offer for £431, saving you over £140 which is a great discount. If you want the results of a high-tech facial at home, then you can't go wrong with this.
Price shown is member price. Non-member price is £120.
I'm seriously impressed with this chic cryo giftset from Beauty Pie, which includes the award-winning Japanfusion Genius Lift and a pair of cryo massage globes that help to depuff and lift the skin. What's more, new members to Beauty Pie can save £20 off their first order over £60 with code 20FF.
Microcurrent devices have soared in popularity in recent years for their ability to work the facial muscles to lift and tone for a sculpted appearance. Foreo's Bear Mini is one of the most popular microcurrent devices (which uses electrical current to lift, tone and brighten the skin) and you can save £90 on Foreo's website right now.
Want to incorporate some self care into your day? Neom's diffuser beautifully scents the room with your favourite scent to help you unwind and relax, and it comes with a 20% discount right now on Beauty Bay.
Cyber Monday is the best time to buy an at-home hair-removal device if you want a great saving. The Philips Lumea is currently on offer on Amazon with an £105 saving, and is regarded as one of the best to reduce unwanted hair on the face and body. As someone who has tried a couple of at-home hair removal devices, I think this is among one of the most effective around.
Hot brushes are amazing for giving your hair volume and bounce. GHD's Rise hot brush is 30% off on the brand's website right now.
Shark's FlexStyler comes with £60 off on John Lewis & Partners for Cyber Monday—a great saving if you've been thinking about investing for a while.
When the Who What Wear UK team put at-home gel kits to the test, this one came out on top as one of the best. Mylee's kit is regarded as one of the best for getting professional results in the comfort of your own home, and you can get a great saving on the complete works set, which has everything you need for a long-lasting gel mani.
Heated brush tools are hot right now (no pun intended) for creating those salon bouncy blowouts at home. I'm a big fan of BaByliss's hair tools, and this budget-friendly one has so many attachments to create so many different looks. I can't quite believe how great value this is. Read our full review of the BaByliss Air Style 1000 Hot Air Hair Styler here.
NuFace's microcurrent devices have earned a loyal following for delivering serious results. In fact, it has been coined as a "five-minute face-lift" for its ability to lift and sculpt jawlines and cheekbones. It's currently £40 off right now, so now is the time to invest if you've had your eye on this cult device for a while.
I need to update my makeup brushes, and this set is incredible value. It's worth £35 if you were to buy the brushes individually, but it's yours for less than half. In the set you get a blusher brush, buffing brush (my favourite for foundation application), a powder setting brush, eye shadow brush and a makeup sponge. All useful and great quality too. You literally cannot go wrong.
