We used to think that a pair of tweezers and a cotton swab could solve all our beauty problems, but with the advent of technology, even beauty has become high-tech. When your wash cloth and nail file don’t cut it, the latest gadgets kick your morning routine into overdrive– for a price. If you can’t afford (or just don’t feel like paying for) the latest $300 facial scrubber or makeup applicator, don’t think you can’t still get your hands on great tools. These beauty gadgets will work wonders for you, and they’re all under $50.

1. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Rejuvenator

If you want healthy, glowing skin, you’ve got to exfoliate, which is why this gadget is so great. Attach a single-use puff containing ultra-fine aluminum oxide crystals to the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Rejuvenator and massage damp skin to remove dead cells. By smoothing the surface, this tool gives your skin mega glow. Another reason why it’s a great investment: great exfoliation helps your other products penetrate the skin better, giving you better results over all.
