Joanna Czech The Facial Massager
Pros
- Relieves tension as it sculpts
- Can be used with facial serums and oils
Czech says this relaxing, sculpting massager would be her "desert island" facial tool. "I created my facial massager so that clients could easily use part of my technique at home with minimal effort," says the facialist. "I love the rolling feature because it gently glides across your skin without pulling it or using any serums."
What the Reviews Are Saying:
"This facial massager is annoyingly good! Sometimes I forget to use it (or I am too tired) and I notice it. I am in my 30s and trying to last as long as I possibly can without having to resort to fillers or botox."

LYMA Laser Starter Kit
Pros
- FDA-approved anti-aging technology
- Safe for melanin-rich skin
Czech says this FDA-approved laser is the tool she is asked about the most by clients. "The LYMA Laser is the most powerful device for at-home use, in my opinion," says Czech. "The LYMA does it all, anti-aging, wrinkles, skin elasticity, skin texture, and skin tone."
What the Reviews Are Saying:
"Honestly, I balked at the price. But in a moment of later evening tiredness went ahead and made the purchase. It completely works...It has cleared my rosacea within two weeks and firmed my neck up by about five years within three weeks. I can feel a remarkable difference and no longer need to get Botox around my eyes or forehead. Perhaps it is a long-term investment that will reap rewards as I spend less overall." —Sarah

"The thing is so freaking easy to use and it makes my skin look and feel amazing. I don't think there is any real gimmick here. It is just a really great facial massage tool—similar to what happens if you go and spend $125.00 at the spa and they do acupressure massage. It really does make your skin glow and gives everything a smoother appearance." —Lydia
