LightStim, NuFace + More: Esthetician's Favorite Tools For Every Budget

[@TessZolly]

What are your favorite tools for at home skin care?

[@sophiaboyer2303]

I love my facial steamer!!! Also the face mask applicators are amazing🤩

[@elliekatherine7353]

Love this video! Sorry if you've already made some of these (still getting through all your videos!) but here are some videos I'd love to see: - Skincare routine for a $50 a month budget, a $100 a month budget and $150 a month budget (something along those lines like an affordable, medium and high end full skin routine if that makes sense) - Biggest at-home mistakes you see clients making - Any popular industry trends you don't necessarily love? Not DIY or at-home trends, but trends used in the treatment room that you opt out of/don't do and why - Any brands at Ulta/Sephora you do like? Like The Ordinary/Paula's Choice/etc. - A review of The Ordinary brand - Sunscreen reviews/SPF overview (I know there's a lot of misinformation out there about SPF and how to properly use sunscreen, would love to hear your take on it) - Favorite natural ingredients/ones to avoid (essential oils/oils/etc.) - How to stay up-to-date in the industry (tradeshows to attend, magazines to subscribe to, etc.) I'm an esty student so I love ALL of your content

Ellie Katherine oh my goodness thank u sooo much for all the ideas! I’m set now 😂😂🙏

[@kaitlynramos1234]

do you think you could do a video on a step by step facial? Like including steaming, cleansing, all the masks, etc.? Im going to school once everything starts back up again but am trying to get somewhat of a head start and am trying to practice and watch as many videos as i can and would love to see something like that. Love this vid, thanks for all the really helpful content!

[@TessZolly]

Hi!! I don’t have access to a steamer, but I did recently post a little facial video if it’s in any way helpful!

[@brookecolles8861]

You definitely didn’t loose your touch girl! Still loving your videos ☺️👏🏼

[@TessZolly]

Brooke Colles hahah thank u so much

[@sydneynold8338]

I love this! I always love to get skincare tools and I never know what to get!

[@TessZolly]

Sydney Nold oh good!!! Glad to help. I think they make the time in quarantine much nicer ❤️

[@estheticianmarketing]

I love my nuface! Sculpts my cheekbones so fast! But yes you gotta keep at it for the long-term results.

[@TessZolly]

Yes queen 👑

[@brooklynproffitt5590]

Love your videos!! Don’t get discouraged you’re doing great! 💜

[@kaitlinskanes3876]

Thanks for the information on skin devices, I hope to start my Esthetician School in June (delayed from Covid..) great advice, and I definitely want a couple of these!

[@TessZolly]

Kaitlin Skanes ooh fabulous!!! I’m wishing you an amazing time at school, thanks for watching and keep me updated! :)

[@kathleenkaczmarczyk]

I am an Esthetician and love watching your videos. I learn so much :-)

[@TessZolly]

Kathleen Kaczmarczyk thanks so much for the sweet words :)

[@kristinatoupin4927]

Love your videos. Full of great information! I'm finishing up my esti classes and you've been a huge help!!

[@TessZolly]

Kristina Toupin thank you so much beautiful. Wishing you luck ❤️❤️❤️

[@hausofg600]

The foreo has been in by Sephora cart for a few weeks now! I think I’ll definitely invest in this tool. Great video. 💕

[@TessZolly]

Glenda Delgado ah thank you! Honestly it’s changed my skin and I don’t say that easily! A thorough cleanse and regular massage goes far

[@jamiliawallace9103]

Do you use eye protection with the lightstim? I’ve heard and read different things.

[@pertuniaranoto4600]

You do you sis'. I love your content..

[@TessZolly]

Hello queen. Thank you!!

[@beautifulleee]

How much are the dermal rollers

[@elkbath]

awesome video! you just earned yourself a new subscriber. thank you for this 🙏 quick question: why put the jade roller in the freezer? does it help?

[@playgirl44]

Would you recommend the derma flash scrubber or is the one linked more professional?

[@trisharogers4342]

Hi Tess, I’ve never seen one of your videos before and I really enjoyed this one, I own the NuFace mini. I used it every day for several months and it helped my jawline and cheeks so much. I just very recently bought the Lightstim and am using it every day. I can hardly wait to see my 8 week results. I now use my NuFace every other day or two. Would I continue to see new improvement if I continued to use it every day? I would love to see a tutorial video of massaging my face with my hands. Thanks so much! Subscribing right now!

[@TessZolly]

Hi Trisha! Im so glad to hear you're loving those tools. Yes, the Nuface should ne used every day, if you can! you should notice healthier skin overall, and a more tightened effect! and sure thing! I can do that :) thanks so much for subscribing!!! xo

[@christinac.5092]

Loved this video! I get so much enjoyment learning about new facial tools. Something on my wishlist is the nu face and a sonic spatula. And I loveee my blue light LightStim for my acne :) What brands of sonic spatula do you recommend for professionals or home use?

[@TessZolly]

Christina Carlile those are goodies. I linked a pro brand from Shelley hancock! Biotherapeutics is great as well but quite pricey

[@symeonidou]

Can I ask you what from all these is mostly recommended for skin with broken capillaries and rosacea?

[@Bumbleinbees]

Can you please make a video about certification training us esthetician’s should take (especially in California. I live in the Bay Area! )

[@TessZolly]

hi babe! just wanted to update you i recently did a video on the best esthetician classes to take- i hope it helps!!! xxo

[@ziam6210]

Wow you broke the gua sha? They’re usually made of jade which is super strong so wondering how you broke them while doing it?

[@TessZolly]

It happens all the time it’s breakable

[@taylaoneby2289]

Do you have experience transferring an esthi license to a different state?? I graduate in August but am now deciding to move in October any advice/tips I would greatly appreciate it!

[@tylermaclaine2784]

you had some pretty useful information. thank you. I have 2 suggestions... #1 I would like to see you actually give a small demonstration for each item. #2 A bit less animation when showing the product. All that arm & hand movement kept the devise flailing about. It was making me dizzy. Thank you again for your sharing your knowledge of skin care.

[@osjalair2494]

Please, show us how you set up your facial bed. TIA

[@TessZolly]

Aw I would but I no longer work at a spa due to Covid :/

[@plenty4ud]

Hi Tess When getting face fillers like Restylane are you still able to use a lightstim device 5 days a week? I use the red light.

[@marthafraser919]

No mention of the cold/ice roller although you have loved it on past videos. Still recommend? Where are they available for purchase?

[@TessZolly]

Martha Fraser I def recommend cold rolling very helpful for inflammation! Mine broke actually so I forgot to mention it. I know they’re available on amazon as well as dermaplus :)

[@P3ak930]

Is there a reason why you prefer this over dr Dennis gross led mask? The mask has 100 red led and 62 blue. I think this one has 72 led total from red to amber to near infrared. Red light is key for anti aging Ofcourse and blue for stimulation of sebum control (acne). I’m super curious and all ears as I am looking to make a purchase between the two. Thank you so much for your professional opinion and expertise.

[@TessZolly]

Yeah, so it depends on your goals! I wouldn’t recommend too much red light for acne. And I would confirm if dr Dennis is FDA cleared. I know lightstim is considered a professional device used in treatment rooms and like celluma, are present at trade shows offering tons of info on research and their results within the professional community, so, those two brands are my preference!

[@SilverliningsJoni]

Hi Tess, I'm in my 4th week of Esthetician school and I'm really loving it! I try to care for my hands at home the best I can, but I like to garden and do crafts. Even with protective gloves I'm struggling to keep my hands and nails soft and healthy. Any suggestions? Great video btw.

[@TessZolly]

thanks so much. i hope you're liking school. gardening sounds like its therapuetic. you could do an at home paraffin treatment with some warm lotion or oil and a plastic bag! i also love to do peels on my hands periodically. i think exfoliation will be a big help! also a big thing is also ensuring i apply spf to them, especially while driving and applying lotion after washing hands to protect the moisture barrier. and not washing with too hot of water. you could also try applying a thick lotion and wearing some little gloves or mittens to bed to create some occlusion. also, for feet, Baby Foot is a great one! SHelley Hancock sells on her site :) Hope this helps! xo

[@SilverliningsJoni]

@@TessZolly I so appreciate the info, I'll look into those options! We start waxing next week, I'm super excited!

[@TessZolly]

Curlygirljj wahoooo!!

[@TessZolly]

Curlygirljj btw saw a New beauty post on hand treatments- might be worth checking out “Hand MD restorative duo”

[@lethopefloatify8]

How do you sanitize the stone and jade roller between clients?

[@TessZolly]

Wash w warm water then Rubbing alcohol!

[@niwtru]

HI Tess Can you recommend a ultrasonic scrubber that a regular everyday noob could buy and use. Im not a pro or esti just want to use something like this safely at home but 400 dollars is not a logical purchase since its only for me. 100 -200 range is acceptable :/ I ve seen many online but don't know what to look for. Thanks for your time.

[@TessZolly]

I probably wouldn’t recommend a consumer buy one as I worry it could do more harm than good and there are probably more beneficial treatment products you could use instead.

[@emilysalas3922]

Hey Tess! Do you have any recommendations for high frequency machines? Portable? Please and thank you in advance 🧡🌞🦋

[@TessZolly]

Emily Salas I don’t have a fav at the moment but Shelley Hancock may have some on her site!

[@emilysalas3922]

Tess Zolly thank you for the reply!! :)

[@plenty4ud]

Light stim device can be used on the face? Correct?

[@TessZolly]

Definitely!

[@eyllisamarieskinsilva8703]

Hi hopefully you see this ! But I’m interested in the skin scrubber for Xmas but the link isn’t working perhaps can u link it again under this comment thank you

[@TessZolly]

Hi beauty! Oh no! Okay if you go to Shelley Hancocks website you need to register as a professional. But noyskincare also offers one!!!

[@alondra7356]

Should these took be used everyday ? And should that be once a day or twice ? For example the jade roller Nd Guasha ?

[@TessZolly]

Alondra you can use those every day :)

[@PelotheDelo]

What do you think about melasma and led?

[@TessZolly]

You really want to avoid light and heat with melasma. I wouldn’t recommend it especially continuously.

[@PelotheDelo]

@@TessZolly thank you so much for your speedy reply. Just ordered it from Sephora. I guess gotta return it 😢

[@TessZolly]

@@PelotheDelo ugh oh no. Yes it’s best to be cautious w melasma and esp avoid added head 😢 I spoke to Lightstim on a podcast and they confirmed this

Can you use this with retina?
