Find out why celebrities and beauty editors are obsessed with these coveted tools

"Red light therapy helps to stimulate collagen and rejuvenate the skin non-invasively without heating it or causing thermal damage, while also promoting anti-inflammatory effects in acne-prone or rosacea skin," explains Kseniya Kobets, Director of Cosmetic Dermatology at Montefiore Einstein Advanced Care.
Bazaar associate beauty editor Katie Intner has an "endless amount of beauty tools," but says this 6-in-1 device has become a favorite.
"While the red light mode helps with the production of collagen and elastin and skin elasticity, the device employs electroporation (a series of electrical pulses) to boost the efficacy of any serum or cream you apply before using," she explains. "The tool not only boasts red light, but also four other types of LED light–including blue for oil control and killing bacteria, orange for brightening, and green for plumping."
Customer review: "This device is worth the hype! I was able to get it on sale and so happy I did! I love how high-tech it is. It has its own app, you can make your own routine, customize the device and so much more! Can’t wait to see how much my skin improved with extended use." —Lindsay
