We all need some self-pampering time, and a solid skincare routine is an excellent way to treat yourself. As part of that routine, I have some recommendations for the best at home skincare devices. From masking, to cleansing, and treating blemishes, there are some tools out there that will make your life easier.
Mask Removing Sponges
For any kind of face mask that states it must be washed off, I always put them on before I take a shower, and then wash them off with a sponge. As evidenced by the photo, many brands make these, but at the end of the day, they all perform the same. The sponge will give you the mildest amount of exfoliation while easily removing all of your mask, even a stubborn clay mask.
Silicone Mask Applicators
Second are some silicone mask applicators. I used to apply masks with my hands, which was messy and unsanitary. My life is forever changed with these silicone tools. I apply any kind of mask with these, from clay, to gel, peel-offs, and more. They are easy to clean and minimize mess down to nothing.
Silicone Face Scrubbers
Third are some tool options to cleanse your face with. I used to use a Clarisonic brush dupe, but now I am all about these silicone tools. The purple one is the Foreo Luna Fofo. It vibrates with a nice amount of surface area, two sizes of bumps, and it connects to an app on your phone to track the health of your skin. Silicone is much more anti-microbial than a brush that needs replaced often. I use the Luna Fofo every day in the shower with my general face wash for a gentle exfoliation while I cleanse.
General Tools
An under eye roller ball tool provides that at home spa experience when massaging eye creams into the skin, but you can use them by themselves to alleviate puffiness.
For those that struggle with acne and blemishes, I am not the biggest proponent of ‘popping’ them for the risk of scarring, but on occasion I will use an extraction tool on a really bad blemish.
Skincare Brushes
Real Techniques offers some great options if you would rather not use your fingers to apply products. They have a set that features a brush for you to apply serums/moisturizers/primers, an exfoliating brush that you can wash your face with, an under eye roller ball, a lip exfoliator brush, and a brush to apply BB creams and foundations. You can go totally hands-free with these options!
For the most part, at home skincare does not have to break the bank, either. These products also make your life much easier. What is your favorite skincare tool? Until next time, continue to let your true beauty shine.

I actually don’t use many skincare devices. I have a face roller but I believe that’s it. I recently ordered a extraction tools set though! I’ve been eyeing the foreo cleanser tool but I think it’s pretty expensive. I’m waiting for a good sale haha. The silicone mask applicators as well as the mask removers are tools I need in my collection right now.

I can’t go back to life without the silicone applicators! The only reason I have the Foreo is from a fabfitfunbox, but otherwise it’s too expensive. There are many dupes for it out there- it’s simply a vibrating silicone tool so it’s nothing life changing.
I only used the Clarisonic but it I wish I had a silicon brush because they last a lot longer. For face masks I actually use a regular flat foundation brush and it works amazingly
That’s a good use for all those foundation brushes! I have so many collecting dust.
Wow, these are all great devices for the skin! I would love to try some of it out
