Beauty Tools Every Woman Needs

All products are independently reviewed and tested. Clicking on any links may result in The Aesthetic Edge earning a commission. Read our disclosure here.

I have developed for you an arsenal of beauty tools every woman needs based upon tools that I love and that I use every single day, or almost every day, for years. These are accessories to your makeup/skincare/beauty routines that make life easier.

Hair Removal

Both of these tools take up permanent residence on my vanity.

  • Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover: Since we are all friends here, I admit that I have unwanted facial hair. But, the thought of electric razors, especially for use on the delicate face, freak me out. This product has changed my life! You cannot feel anything when you use it, and it never hurts me. It removes all of my unwanted facial hair so that I never have to live with it again! I use this product a few times per week, or as needed.
  • Flawless Brows: I pluck my brows daily without fail. This tool gets used every day to supplement my plucking routine. I use tweezers to remove some select brow hairs, then I go in and finish up the job with Flawless Brows. By the way, this product is painless as well.

I do want to say that I have almost all of the tools in the Flawless line and I love them so much! But, since I am sticking to beauty here, I am not going to the body tools.

Beauty Spatulas

I first purchased the original Spatty Spatula years ago, and since then, I find a use for it every day and I cannot live without it! How did I ever manage before it came into my life?! It is 6 inches long. With its silicone tip you can scrape out beauty products to make sure you get every last drop.

It can also be used to mix products, such as foundation. Additionally, I use it to dispense products that are potted or in jars so that I do not need to stick my fingers directly in. I detest getting product under my fingernails! Recently, I found a HUGE 12 inch Spatty and I purchased it immediately! It is great for scraping out larger products, such as shampoos. These spatulas will be your new addiction, I promise.

Brush Cleaning

These make brush washing a bit more bearable.

  • Makeup brush drying rack: Wet makeup brushes should never be stored upright until they are completely dry, as the water will ruin the glue that holds the bristles in place. You can totally lay your brushes flat on a paper towel or rag and not actually buy a rack. However, I believe that the rack helps your brushes to dry faster hanging upside down than when they are lying down horizontally. Ever since buying this tool I have never looked back.
  • Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette: You can totally go sans tools to wash your brushes and simply use your hands. However, in my experience, a tool to help you scrub gets the soap deeper into your brushes for an overall cleaner brush. The cleansing mats that you place into your sink are ok, but this cleansing palette gives you ultimate control. I have been using this for years and I have never gone back to using my hands alone.

Silicone Mask Applicator

Since obtaining my first silicone mask applicator, I never use my hands to apply masks, no matter if the mask is potted or in a tube. This is so much more sanitary than using your hands, and it spreads masks out evenly all over the face.

Also, you do not need to stick your fingers into potted masks. The best part is, these are super inexpensive! Below I am picturing an applicator from Dollar Tree, but I also have one from Yes To and Freeman. If you want a mess-free masking experience and an even coating on your face, then you need one of these tools.
