This anti-aging wand and serum duo helps bust wrinkles — and it's 35% off
Our beauty editor — and tons of online fans — rave that this tool can 'even skin tone and blur wrinkles,' among other beautifying benefits.
We're abundantly lucky to live in a time of innovative beauty products, like the Solawave: This four-in-one multitasker works to soothe, smooth, revitalize and restore skin, all in a sleek and portable tool that utilizes the revolutionary effects of red light therapy. The Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Wand and Serum Bundle is currently on sale for just $123 (down from $189) courtesy of an on-page coupon at Amazon as part of their Labor Day sale. Making this deal even sweeter: The Solawave is a personal favorite of our own beauty writers.
Why is this a good deal? 💰
The Solawave Radiant Renewal Bundle doesn't often go on sale, so this Labor Day discount is a special one. For just $123 with the on-page coupon, you get a premium skin-care tool that includes four benefits in one: red light therapy, galvanic current, therapeutic warmth and facial massage — plus an activating serum specially created for use with the wand. Usually priced at $189, it's discounted by 35% with this current offer.
Why do I need this? 🤔
Take it from our Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini, who called the Solawave "the hottest name in skin-care tech" and who wrote of the tool in her roundup of anti-aging skin care faves that it "helps reduce wrinkles, smooth scarring, increase blood flow and give skin a more even tone." She added, "If you use it every day, it works like magic to even skin tone and blur wrinkles."
So, how does it work? The Solawave uses a combination of light and heat therapy, along with the benefits of therapeutic massage, to help rejuvenate the skin, revealing a more youthful surface. The lights used in the tool — red, near-infrared and blue light — are all clinically proven to benefit the skin, with red light therapy helping promote more radiant skin without causing damage, near-infrared light rejuvenating skin's appearance and blue light working to destroy acne-causing bacteria. (You can read more about the science behind the Solawave here.)
The Solawave also utilizes a galvanic current as a safe, non-invasive method of boosting the skin's ability to absorb serums and creams, allowing your go-to products to work more effectively; the light facial massage and therapeutic warming features work to promote circulation and soothe and support healthy skin. When customers used the wand consistently for three to five minutes a day, they reported seeing results within weeks.
You don't only get the wand in this bundle — there's also the Solawave Renew Complex Serum, which was crafted for use with the wand and includes skin-loving ingredients like blue tansy, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera to calm, plump and smooth skin, respectively.
Using the wand is easy: First, cleanse skin. Then, apply a thin layer of the Solawave Renew Complex Serum, which will allow the wand to glide easily over skin. After that, just move the wand across your face in an upward and outward motion, being sure to cover the forehead, cheeks, under-eyes, jaw, neck and upper lip. Finally, use your favorite moisturizer (we love this one from Neutrogena for any nighttime routine!) across face, neck and décolleté to help lock in hydration.
What reviewers say 💬
This multitalented device is beloved by fans across the beauty scene, with scores of Amazon shoppers awarding it a perfect five-star rating.
Pros 👍
"Best skin-care product I've ever used," raved one five-star fan. "It feels great, and I noticed an improvement in my skin within just a few days."
Related another reviewer: "I’ve tried lots of beauty tools; I’ve even tried other at-home red-light-therapy contraptions, but none of them have worked as good as this. I’ve only used this one for a week while on my cruise. Late nights, sun and alcohol: all the things that can wreak havoc on your skin. But this little gem helped my skin glow, look clearer and is already softening annoying little lip lines, lines around the eyes and [I even noticed] that little hanging piece of skin on the neck is literally getting tighter?!! For the price, so far, it’s amazing."
"Y’all, I was really skeptical, but this wand really delivers," raved a surprised user. "It did take me about a month to really see a difference, but oh man, my wrinkles are less noticeable, my skin feels smoother, and frankly, a facial massage every day just feels really wonderful."
A final fan shared, "I have been using my new Solawave at least five days a week for the last month and I can definitely see improvement in my skin texture and tone. The skin on my jawline has tightened and my hyperpigmentation is noticeably lighter on my neck. Additionally, I was surprised to find that it helps heal any blemishes I have very quickly. ... Extremely easy to use, portable and effective."
Cons 👎
Some reviewers note that the included serum in the bundle doesn't necessarily "play well with others": "The serum is definitely not worth it and does not do as described," critiqued one customer. "It dries up and does not allow the tool to glide — as it starts drying, the tool starts getting stuck on the skin and does not glide as described... Serum also doesn’t work well with other products/moisturizer/makeup."
Others cautioned to be patient with waiting for results — after all, this isn't actually a magic wand! "If you don't have patience or are the type of person that gets frustrated when you don't immediately see results, I would pass on this. It does require time, effort and patience. I didn't see any results until after the two-week mark. It was between two-three weeks before I really started seeing a noticeable difference," noted a reviewer.
