Gadgets to help keep you fabulous

The jazz weekend is almost upon us and once we hit the home stretch, then we are thinking of Christmas parties and family celebrations.

The party prep can step up a notch though with some fab gadgets to help you cleanse, curl and twirl your way through to the festive season. They also make amazing gifts.

Lift, tone and cleanse your face and neck all at the same time with Cosaint’s new Cosaint’s Compact Ultrasonic Skin Peeler (€249).This incredible device has two modes. The cleansing mode uses ultrasonic vibrations to push out dirt and oil, clearing away dead skin cells and other debris that can clog pores and create spots. The device contains a silver spatula that extracts clogged pores around the nose area.

Your quick and deep cleansing ritual is then finished off by the lifting mode, which stimulates circulation and tones your facial muscles. This is a fantastic mode to use for a few minutes before a night out to give you a fresh and healthy look. It’s available online from thewicklowstreetclinic.ie.

Finishing Touch Flawless (€24.99) is the revolutionary facial hair removal device that erases hair quickly and painlessly without the irritation that comes with plucking, waxing or depilatories. It is designed to be discreet and looks like a lipstick but contains state-of-the-art technology that microscopically removes hair. It works quickly and effectively at removing unwanted hair on smaller areas, it's perfect for unwanted facial hair. You can be flawless anywhere, anytime. It’s available in selected pharmacies.

From covetable curls to sensually straight, create the most longed for styles this party season with the GHD Platinum+ Smart Styler. Featuring ultra-zone technology that predicts the needs of your hair for a flawless finish, personalised to you, this GHD protects the integrity of your hair without compromising on style.

The limited-edition styler is brushed in a luxurious pewter tone and presented in a luxurious emerald velvet touch vanity case. I have always stuck with the GHD brand for a straightener as I feel they have longevity and really work. It is available at Peter Mark and selected salons.

Spotlight Oral Care Smile Rejuvenation System (€150) is a safe, easy-to-use, clinically approved system which combines micro-needling therapy with a peptide-enriched serum and hydro-boosting lip mask to minimise the appearance of fine lines around the mouth.

This three-step programme helps to plump, revitalise and firm skin around the mouth and lips, enhancing your smile for long-lasting results. This clinically formulated system works to plump perioral lines, hydrate and minimise sad clown lines. The needling works with collagen and elastin to tighten and firm the jawline. It nourishes lateral cheek lines with active ingredients.

Kevyn Aucoin’s Lash Curler (€21.50) can create perfectly curled lashes. This easy-to-use, award-winning eyelash curler is designed to catch each individual eyelash, without pinching, for the perfect eye-opening look.

The wide opening of the curler is designed to accommodate all eye shapes. This eyelash curler features a red silicone cushion pad that contrasts with eyelashes and the lash line for precision and ease of use.
