Metro Beauty Awards 2021: Best In Skincare Tools
We still miss our regular beauty clinic visits, but these picks surely make skincare sessions at home a lot more fun, and efficient!
Being a beauty girl in endless quarantine has its fair share of challenges—one of them being unable to go out for the skincare me-dates we used to have prior to all this. It was pretty easy to save a day to go out to have a facial, or a special skincare treatment, but since we've been spending all this time indoors, our skin surely took a toll from the absence of professional care.
Apart from amazing skincare kits/sets from our go-to dermatology clinics, we've relied a lot on all the amazing skincare products we've discovered over the course of the quarantine, as well as skincare tools that were developed to help take matters into our own hands, literally! Here, we present to you the amazing beauty tools we've tried and tested, and have loved!
From handheld gadgets, to trendy LED masks, we know that these beauty tools will also make your lives easier. They're easy to use, they're handy, and they're built to last for quite a while—meaning they're great investments in the long run.

Foreo UFO 2
Yes, we miss our facials! That entire routine of cleansing, massage, application of skincare products—ah, heaven! While that isn't something we can freely do these days, the UFO 2 comes to our rescue. It's dubbed the 'Supercharged 2-minute facial', as you have a 'beauty spa int he palm of your hand'! The UFO 2 shrinks pores, reduces puffiness, and has full-spectrum LED Light Therapy to get rid of signs of aging. What ensures this? The complete facial treatment features Hyper-Infusion Technology (heating, cooling, T-Sonic pulsations), Ultra-Fast Thermo-Therapy Mode (preps skin for absorption), Ultra-Fast Cryo-Therapy (refreshes, instantly firms and lifts skin), and T-Sonic Pulsations (stimulates blood microcirculation).

Love K-Derma LED Light Mask
You've seen these in K-dramas, and have wondered—how can a robotic-looking thing be a skincare device? The Love K-Derma LED Light Mask utilizes NASA's research on LED Light therapy, wherein different color LED lights target different skin concerns. The varying colors help combat all signs of aging, clears blemishes and reduces pigmentation. We love the special remote control and built-in speaker that tells you what treatment stage you are already in. Just 20 minutes a day, and you're good!

Beauty Secret Derma Roller
If anti-aging and acne scars are some of your main concerns, the derma roller is a great addition to your routine. But be very careful with usage, as this product contains micro needles that can cause a little discomfort for your skin. If you're unsure about it, make sure to consult your dermatologist! The Beauty Secret derma roller creates microscopic wounds on your skin, so make sure your tools are thoroughly sanitized. With correct use, it helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improves tone and texture, reduces acne scarring and discoloration, lightens stretch marks, and allows creams and serums to be better absorbed by skin. Once you've cleansed your face, slowly and with slight pressure, roll in one direction (horizontal first) and always lift the roller after each pass. Do not roll back and forth. After 6-10 passes, switch and roll vertically. Use with caution and be gentle with your skin!
