As a shopping and reviews editor, I’ve hands-on tested my fair share of products, including headphones and e-readers, but my bread and butter is beauty tech. I’ve been obsessed with skincare, makeup, and hair tools for most of my life. And yes, I even went through eyebrow blindness in 2016 — it’s a rite of passage.
Whether I’m reviewing a product for work or just trying out a tool for my daily routine, I love to get my hands on beauty devices to see if they do what they promise (and are worth the money) or are overhyped. I’ve certainly come away with some favorites, some of which are on sale for Prime Day. I’m here to save you the trouble of poring through user reviews by telling you exactly which beauty products on sale are actually good deals and worth buying.
TheraFace PRO
Opens in a new window
The TheraFace PRO is probably my favorite skincare device I’ve ever used, and it turned me into a TheraBody Beauty stan. I use it almost every day to wash my face, employing the facial cleansing attachment. And while I typically use the TheraFace Mask for my LED therapy now, the PRO is still my go-to for the microcurrent, massage, and hot and cold tools.
This is an investment with an MSRP of $399 and an additional $99 for the hot and cold rings, but if you live and breathe skincare, it’s worth it. The battery lasts so long and it truly is an all-in-one device. I’ve even used it for non-beauty purposes when I have headaches and need a little temple massage.
During Prime Day, the TheraFace PRO is on sale for $299, or $100 off, at both Amazon and Therabody direct. The hot and cold attachments are also discounted by $20.

Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Wand
Opens in a new window
Before there was TheraFace PRO, there was Solawave. It felt like every celeb was using the LED device during their pre-event routines. I was totally influenced to buy it when it went on sale for Black Friday a couple of years ago. Note that I own an older model than what Solawave is currently offering.
I love the Solawave device because it’s small enough to be thrown in whatever bag, wherever you go. I don’t travel with my TheraFace because I’m the queen of never checking a bag and shoving everything I can into a carry-on duffle bag. But the Solawave has such a slim profile, that I never mind making room for it.
I do prefer the TheraFace Mask for all-over LED light therapy, but I absolutely love my Solawave for targeting my under-eyes. It’s also so lovely for a little massage between my eyebrows (an area that also happens to house some gnarly scowl lines that could benefit from red light therapy).
The Solawave skincare wand is on sale for 35% off at Amazon and 40% off with code PRIME40 at Solawave while supplies last.

Shark FlexStyle
Opens in a new window
When the Dyson Airwrap came out, I thought no way in hell would I ever spend $600 on a hair tool. And I still stand by that. But credit where credit is due, Dyson created a dope ass product. Which is why I love the Shark FelxStyle so much: It’s the perfect dupe.
My hair is short, just above my shoulders, so I can’t create the gorgeous blowouts I see across TikTok, but the FlexStyle does still help me with cute, voluminous styles. It’s also become my favorite hair dryer by a long shot. I love rough drying my hair without any attachments, then adding the round brush attachment to give my fine, pin-straight hair some lift.
The Shark FlexStyle is already a more affordable Dyson Airwrap dupe, and during Prime Day it’s dropped down another $82.
