LightBoost Wand Activating SerumUpdated a month ago

About 

Solawave LightBoost Wand Activating Serum enhances your wand’s performance, providing a smooth, cushiony glide with a soft, non-tacky finish. It infuses the skin with anti-aging actives like hyaluronic acid, peptides, and new LightBoost tech, a complex shown to boost the effects of light therapy.


How to Use

  1. After cleansing, section the face and neck into four areas you want to treat with the wand. 
  2. Apply the serum to the first area, and begin your treatment. 
  3. Spend 3 minutes per area, moving the device in gentle, slow motions. 
  4. Apply the serum to each new area as you go. Once finished, use your hands to massage in any excess serum, as it works well as a base layer for your skincare. 
  5. Follow with LightBoost Face & Neck Serum and then LightBoost Face & Neck Rich Cream to help maintain and enhance your wand results.


Pro Tips:
Do: Divide face and neck into four treatment areas, applying serum to each area as you go. 

Don’t: Apply to your entire face first like you might with traditional serum.

  2. How does the LightBoost Tech work? 
    Our proprietary LightBoost Tech is a complex supercharged with potent ingredients shown to boost the effects of Light Therapy, formulated to energize your skin and visibly improve the appearance of skin aging and imperfections. LightBoost Tech was meticulously designed to not only boost the effects of light therapy but also complement it by providing powerful antioxidant protection that allows skin to maximally maintain the positive effects from light therapy while doubling down on the skin-revitalizing and radiance-boosting benefits.
