Thanks to TrophySkin for sponsoring this post! Their new red light therapy face wand is one of the tricks in our bag.

I’m no spring chicken anymore and my skin knows it. This is the last year in my thirties and you’d better believe I’m clinging to each day. But does 40 scare me? You know, it really doesn’t. I’m well prepped and ready to go.

It’s the first time in my life I feel like my skin is at its all-time best and in fact, many of my friends and family have commented on how youthful my skin looks. And it’s no fluke. I’ve been working HARD this past year to take charge of my skin. From better cleansing, to daily SPF, I’ve been religious about the basics, but I’ve also tried something new and that is what I believe has made a big difference.

It’s called red light therapy. Are you doing it? This little face wand is a must.

The New Red Light Therapy Face Wand for 5-minute a Day Brightening

Red light therapy is the buzzword right now and for good reason. The science of anti-aging is incredible! And TrophySkin just released a new Red Light Therapy Wand that is the best little 5-minute facial. I even use it to plump my lips as an alternative to lip injections.

I use it, I love it, here’s how it works.

1. Heat Therapy

First apply your favorite serum. (*See note below.) Once fully charged, your BrightenMD wand will immediately activate when it comes in contact with your skin. One of my favorite functions of the 4 this wand delivers, is heat therapy. Moving the wand around your face, it delivers a comfortable warming that improves circulation and blood flow to your face, giving you that youthful glow.

2. Medical Grade Red LEDs

This face wand also delivers an impressive punch of therapeutic red light. Red light LED bulbs (within the 620-630nm wavelength) send light energy into the skin, stimulating cell renewal and turnover.

3. Microcurrent

The TrophySkin wand uses EMS technology (electrical muscle stimulation) to improve your skin’s appearance. I love the compact size of this wand–it’s small enough to take with you wherever you go.

4. Ultrasonic Vibration

The low vibration of ultrasonic waves creates a gentle facial massage that not only feels great, it stimulates face muscles and tones them, reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Vibration also enhances better absorption of enriching serums. 

*Personal note: This device works best when you apply a serum immediately before using. I actually tested a few of my serums, and it performed better with the Light Enhancing Serum (comes free with the wand right now!). I thought maybe my device wasn’t working, even after a fresh charge, but it’s only because I hadn’t applied a serum.

Start harnessing the power of red light. Let this little wand be the way you wake up in the morning and the way you wind down at night. I love this part of my daily routine. It wakes up my sluggish skin in the  morning and gets the blood flowing and my skin glowing. At night, it’s a great way to de-stress as the sonic vibrations melt all my facial tension away.

Make this a regular part of your routine, be consistent (I use it twice a day every day) and you’ll start seeing results.

It’s so nice knowing I’m doing the very best for my skin. I’m taking an active part in keeping it young, even if the numbers don’t necessarily say so.

I might not be that spring chicken anymore, but I can sure trick my skin into thinking it is.
