Magic Glow Wand is a popular and captivating toy that is loved by both children and adults. It is a luminous stick that emits colorful lights and creates a magical ambiance. The wand is usually made of a plastic tube filled with special light-emitting chemicals and covered with a protective coating. The main attraction of the Magic Glow Wand is its ability to glow in the dark. It operates on the principle of chemiluminescence, where a chemical reaction produces light without the need for an external power source. In simple words, when the wand is bent or twisted, the chemicals mix together, triggering the reaction and causing the stick to emit the glowing light.

Joanna Vargas Launched the Magic Glow Wand, an At-Home Facial Massage Tool
It has hot and cool temperature modes that can be combined with massage mode for a relaxing, at-home facial. Here’s my honest review of the tool.
September 15, 2020 Clara Hendler/AllureThe moment I discovered Joanna Vargas, facialist and founder of Joanna Vargas Salons and Skin-Care, was launching a new product, I wasted no time researching every detail about it. Vargas' signature facials and namesake line of skin-care products and tools is beloved by Allure editors and countless celebrity clients such as Rachel Brosnahan and Mindy Kaling — so the newest addition to her lineup, Magic Glow Wand, rides on very high expectations.
So, what exactly is this fancifully-named tool? Magic Glow Wand is a spa-grade facial massage device meant to, according to Vargas, "reduce the appearance of puffiness, invigorate the skin, and bring your glow back." After six weeks of staying in a home filled with high-sodium processed foods, I'm basically grinning from ear to ear at this description — sign me up.
Magic Glow Wand helps you achieve your glow potential through lymphatic drainage, as you "put pressure on the skin to help move the fluid away from the skin, so it can be filtered by your lymph nodes," Joshua Zeichner, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, explains. "The lymph system acts as the waste removal system for our bloodstream. Lymph vessels do not have muscles, so they rely on our bodies' muscle constriction from regular movements to pump the fluid."
What's more is that, according to Vargas, a stagnant lymphatic system can cause puffiness and dry skin, and Zeichner agrees. "If there is a blockage or slow movement of lymph fluid, it can result in lymphedema, or swelling, of the skin. This can result in puffiness and pressure on the skin barrier, which leads to dry and dull skin, or in more severe cases, even inflammation and rashes." Got it.

The tool itself is designed with a titanium head for sensitive skin and its massage modes, which Vargas says "mimic the wave-like motion of the lymphatic system," are gentle enough to use every day. Whereas a lot of skin-care tools only offer one function, the Magic Glow Wand stands out with four different modes to address your specific skin concerns. Let's break them down:
- Hot Mode (102.2°F): Mimics steaming during an in-salon facial, stimulates skin circulation, loosens sebum to deep-cleanse, and eliminates buildup
- Hot + Massage Mode (96.7°F): Helps skin absorb products, like masks and serums, for more effective treatments
- Cool Mode (55.4°F): Mimics cryotherapy, instantly soothes skin, and controls redness and inflammation
- Cool + Massage Mode (41°F): Minimizes the appearance of pores and decreases puffiness through lymphatic stimulation
It didn't take much convincing for me to try out the Magic Glow Wand for myself. Since Vargas confirmed that was safe to do, I decided to test out all four modes in the same sitting, starting from hot and working my way to cool. Her other tip is to "pick the cold + massage when you are doing your morning routine," which seems like the perfect wake-up call for work-from-home life.
You shouldn't be using either hot or cold settings without a physical barrier between you and the device, i.e. a face mask, sheet mask, or serum. Vargas recommends doing a clay or exfoliating mask for the two hot settings, a sheet mask or cream mask for the cool setting, and a serum for the Cool + Massage setting. And on the flip side, you shouldn't use the hot settings on naked skin or an intense peel.
My overall first impressions are that the device itself is lightweight and easy to hold, and the hot and cool temperatures (which only need five seconds to adjust when switching modes) feel really soothing on my skin on top of a face or sheet mask.
The vibrant and radiant colors of the wand add a touch of magic to any event or celebration, such as parties, concerts, festivals, and even nightclubs. Besides being a source of entertainment, Magic Glow Wands also have practical uses. They are often used as safety devices during outdoor activities. For example, hikers and campers can use them as light sources during nighttime excursions. Furthermore, they can be used as emergency beacons to signal for help in case of an emergency. One of the advantages of Magic Glow Wands is that they are non-toxic and safe to use. This makes them suitable for children of all ages. However, it is essential to handle the wands with care and avoid puncturing or breaking them, as the chemicals inside can cause skin irritation if they come into direct contact. In conclusion, the Magic Glow Wand is a captivating and visually appealing toy that offers countless hours of fun and enchantment. Its ability to emit glowing lights without the need for batteries or electricity makes it a popular choice among both children and adults. Whether used for entertainment purposes or as a safety device, the Magic Glow Wand never fails to leave a magical impression on its users..
