The SolaWave facial wand touts some hefty anti-aging claims—from smoothing textured skin to blurring fine lines and wrinkles. It typically costs $169 on its own, but from now through Nov. 30, you can snag *two* of the famous devices (or any other skincare essentials from SolaWave) for the price of one. So if you want to pair your wand with the full Solabiome skincare set, or snag an extra device to gift to your bestie, now's your chance to buy one, get one *free.* I know that sounds almost too good to be true, but the SolaWave Black Friday sale has kicked off early, and you don't have to wait to score deals on the brand's most coveted products, including the facial wand you'll definitely want to snag for a steal. While a million different devices on the market claim to smooth your skin, more often than not, they’re just a lot of hype. The SolaWave wand, however, has pleasantly surprised me.

As a woman in her mid-twenties, noticeable wrinkles aren’t exactly a pressing issue for me yet (knocks on wood). But I can say that preventing them is a top concern. Over the past few years, we have all spent an inordinate time attached to our screens (which is no friend to the skin). Whether it's from squinting at my computer or staring at my phone more than I’d like to admit, I’ve visibly developed more fine lines and deeper dark circles recently.

Enter the SolaWave: A device that uses red light therapy, microcurrents, facial massage and therapeutic warmth to boost your skin’s youthful glow, fade blemishes and smooth fine lines, among other things.

Besides face rollers, I never attempted to use a home device like this one. I, like everyone else, have the holy-grail skincare products I swear by, but after the toll this past year has taken on my face, I wanted to kick things up a notch.

For optimal results, the brand recommends you use the device for five minutes a day. While results will vary from person to person, most users claim they see a difference in the first two weeks of use.

Personally, I’ve seen an improvement in my problem areas—specifically between my eyebrows and under my eyes—after a few weeks. Since using the SolaWave, my fine lines are less noticeable, and my dark circles are lightening up. I’d never had an issue with dark circles until I started working from home at the start of the pandemic, and the SolaWave has been a wonderful aid in minimizing the appearance of them.

In the latest episode of Testing TikTok, PureWow creator Kate Kesselman was also able to snag the oh-so-viral Solawave Skincare Wand and test it out for two weeks.

In the video (see above), Kate talks about how she desperately wanted to have rejuvenated skin after (*ahem*) a few late nights of staying up, watching rom-coms and eating pizza. “So, I’m hoping this works some magic,” she says in the vid. “People are saying they see results in two weeks. So we are going to put that to the test.”

You can click the video above to hear Kate’s overall review of the skincare device and see the viral product in action, but if I were you, I wouldn't wait to grab it—especially since you'll get two for the price of one. It's a win-win.
