These Face Massagers Make My Skin Care Routine Into a Spa Day (2025)

Dr. Yadav loves this beauty tool because microcurrent is clinically proven to work. “While you’ll need to use it daily to see and maintain results, it can help smooth deeper lines, lift and sculpt the jawline (and offer skin tightening benefits to the jowls), and improve neck laxity,” she says.

“After doing half my face, I could see my brow looked more lifted and my cheek less puffy,” says Glamour contributor Deanna Pai. “I have more definition along my cheekbones and jawline too. But what really impressed me is that after 10 or so days of consistent use, my nasolabial folds look less noticeable.”

This little handheld (it’s just slightly longer than a razor) comes with its own travel case, making it easy to bring anywhere, unlike bigger devices on the market. Board-certified dermatologist Deanne Mraz, MD, president and cofounder of Modern Dermatology, loves this wand because it’s a red-light-therapy tool that’s also paired with vibration and gentle massage. “This pick allows you to control where you spend time and focus your treatment,” she explains. “The head rotates to accommodate your facial anatomy and has a timer built in to keep your treatment on the move, ensuring you don’t overtreat an area or miss one entirely.”

Glamour commerce writer Alanna Martine Kilkeary says she’s been using the Solawave wand every week for a few months, and her skin has never looked more even-toned and smooth. “It gently vibrates as you pull it along your skin and gives off a warming sensation,” she says. “My skin almost immediately looks plumper and fresh, and my fine lines are way less noticeable than they ever were before.”

Best for Deep Cleansing: Foreo Luna 4 Face Cleansing Brush

If you love getting deep into pores while cleansing your skin, consider trying this pick from Foreo. Dr. Mraz is a fan of this little device because it’s a great way to integrate facial massage into something you do daily—washing your face. “The silicone facial cleansing brush lifts away dirt, oil, and excess sebum and can enhance product penetration that is applied post-cleanse,” she explains. “There are three different variations for different skin types including balanced, sensitive, and combination skin.”

Glamour’s Kilkeary had high expectations for this product, and it fulfilled them. “I really liked how compact the design is; it’s quite ergonomic and fits really easily in your hand. This one was probably the most intensely massaging one of the bunch, and I kind of loved it—it made me feel like I was getting a facial massage while I was cleansing my makeup off,” she says.“The best part? It left my skin superclean without a trace of makeup behind, and I’ll definitely be relying on this one again for when I need a quick fix for removing heavy foundation.”

Best for Manual Massage: RanavatDetoxifying Facial Massage Tool

This may not look like your typical face massager, but this type of tool has been used for centuries. “This Ayurvedic tool is made with kansa, a blend of copper and tin that is used to help energize, balance, release tension, and detoxify the skin,” explains Dr. Yadav. “It may not be fancy, but it is effective—people have been using this type of wand for centuries to help smooth and soothe their skin.”

Looking for both massage and healing red light? “This tool combines the benefits of vibrational massage, EMS (electrical muscle stimulation), therapeutic warmth, and LED light therapy to lift, sculpt, and target anti-aging and acne concerns,” says Dr. Mraz.

Glamour contributor Emily Tannenbaum says this option provided instant gratification in addition to long-term benefits. “Basically, you’re using the small tool to give yourself a high-tech lymphatic massage and healthy glow at the same time. After applying a moisturizing serum, I use upward motions to sculpt my neck, jaw, and cheekbones—and the results are pretty instantaneous,” she says. “The heat was definitely noticeable but not too strong, and I comfortably used the tool for a full three minutes on each side of my face. While I definitely saw the promised glow, I was most impressed by the way it contoured my jaw. Not only will I be using this tool before any event, I will definitely be adding this guy to my midflight skin care routine to combat swelling on the plane.”

Studies show that cold therapy can help reduce inflammation, depuff, and increase blood flow in the skin too. This ice roller from Kitsch simultaneously massages your face while delivering an Arctic blast. “This face roller is a great price point so you can try it without investing big bucks,” says Dr. Mraz. “Use it to wake up your face, massage away puffiness, enhance a sheet mask (roll overtop), or massage away facial tension or headaches.”
