WHAT: Zena Foster Sonic Gold Beauty Bar
WHY: What we’re about to say might sound possibly deranged, but if your love language is “touch,” please read on.
One of the most unexpected drawbacks of quarantine is that we miss having people touch us. No mani-pedis or haircuts or facials (hi Candace Marino—we miss you) or foot massages. Is this really the main problem in the world right now? Of course not. But do many of us craft our lives around these moments of self-care, while developing deep relationships with this army of (mostly) women? Damn right.
Not only are our roots a foot long, our nails are heinous, and our bodies sore, but our faces are puffy and droopy and crying out for something, anything, to perk them up.
Which is why this vibrating sonic gold beauty bar from Zena Foster is a quarantine necessity.
The vibrating (!) metal T-bar is surprisingly gentle and glides smoothly over your skin for a little moment of self-massage. It lifts and depuffs and drains and, according to the brand, boosts circulation by stimulating blood vessels under the surface. Are we 100% sure it’s doing that? No! But regardless, it feels like heaven. It’s also particularly magical when used after applying this fragrant, soothing botanical oil.
No charging or cords involved—just a single AA battery required—which makes it lightweight and portable and ridiculously easy to use for an at-home facial. Plus, at $60, it’s shockingly reasonably priced, compared to the $200+ bars out there which tend to make claims we’re not entirely sold on.
Will it replace your favorite facialist? Nah. But it will refresh your face, wake up your skin, and give you a light, desperately-needed massage until you can safely see them again.
PRICE: $60
