To be totally honest, we used to give beauty devices and their lofty promises a skeptical side eye. This ever-growing category is definitely not what it once was — today’s best beauty devices are equipped with cutting edge, medical-grade tech, and plenty of clinical trials that prove their power. Sounds expensive, right? Usually they are, but not today — that’s because all of InStyle’s favorite beauty devices from nine different tech categories are on serious sale right now thanks to Amazon Prime Big Deal Days.

For better or worse, we’ll try just about anything once, and our experience testing these magical little devices was definitely for the better. We had a feeling we’d love the way the NuFace made our skin look, because we seriously doubt Kate Hudson or Bella Hadid would waste their time using gimmicky tools without gaining visible results. And if the Theraface Pro would give us Connie Britton’s red carpet glow, which one of our beauty writers promised it would, we knew we had to test all the buzzy beauty tech out there — and so we did. 118 beauty devices, to be exact, and these magical little gadgets were our very favorites, and they’re up to 35 percent off at Amazon right now. Run, don’t walk — trust us.

7 Best Prime Day Beauty Device Deals:

Dermaflash Luxe+ Dermaplaning Exfoliation Device

$199

$181

Our mothers may think dermaplaning sounds like a bad idea to do yourself at home — swiping a sharp metal edge across your face to scrape away dead skin cells and peach fuzz — but we were undeniably curious. InStyle tested 15 of the most popular dermaplaning tools, and the Dermaflash Luxe+, an electric dermaplaner, earned our title of Best Overall for its smooth, soft swipe — a crucial feature — along with its sturdy handle and gentle exfoliation that wiped away surface grime and unwanted facial hair from our skin. The strong, thick handle ensured we could get a good grip and maintain control, and somehow the sharp blade felt comfortable against our skin without causing a hint of irritation. Some of us were dermaplaning pros, while others were nervous newbies, but with two speed settings, it earned rave reviews from both.

Foreo UFO 2

$299

$150

Another one of our Best Overall picks is seriously discounted right now, and like we said in our initial review, we can’t rave enough about this tiny Foreo UFO 2 device. And we really mean tiny — it fits in the palm of our hands — but that doesn’t mean it isn’t powerful. The Foreo emits T-Sonic pulses, which feel mellow and pretty energizing on sleepy mornings, to stimulate blood flow, allowing the ingredients of the sheet mask you pair it with to sink deeply into skin.

We bounced between eight different types of full-spectrum LED lights, depending on what skin issue we wanted to target — some days it was an emerging pimple, others it was a fine line that looked a little more dramatic than it did the day before. In less than four weeks, our skin looked totally transformed. Our fine lines looked softer and not quite as deep, our dull skin looked smoother and more even toned, and our overall complexion simply looked radiant. Our glow-up was undeniable, evidenced by total strangers complimenting our new, beautiful skin. We used the hydrating mask throughout our six-week test, but we loved that Foreo has a dozen different mask options to treat the spectrum of skin challenges.

Solawave Bye Acne Spot Treatment

Amazon

$99

$69

What’s better than finding an affordable high-tech beauty device that actually works? One that is even further discounted, and we’re stunned about this total steal of a sale on the Solawave, which we named our Best Budget LED face mask.

If your skin is riddled with stubborn, consistent acne and blackheads, run and add this to your Amazon cart now. We’ve spent a small fortune over the years on acne creams, gels, and masks, but it was this ultra-targeted handheld zapper, equipped with both blue and red light options, that was able to hone in on our acne and redness.

After a few weeks, our patchy red cheeks riddled with blemishes cleared up so much that our friends even noticed our brighter, calmer-looking skin, which was a lovely confidence booster. It was also impossibly easy to use: Just charge it up and press a single button. We didn’t even have to set a timer as the lights automatically flashed off after each three minute session, and since it’s cordless, we were free to walk around our apartments while using it.
