From new launches to cult favourites, we try a lot of beauty at Tira. But only a few things truly earn a permanent place in our routines. And when a product does reach that level, you’ll hear about it everywhere: in our morning stand-ups, in the little desk-drawer stashes and in the “you need this” DMs we send each other.
Skincare tools are a big part of that obsession. They’re the add-ons that make our products work harder and our daily routines feel just a little more put-together. Whether it’s de-puffing before a meeting, sculpting while watching a show or calming irritation after a long day, these are the tools we genuinely rely on.
“This has basically replaced my morning iced coffee. I use it every day right after applying my serum, and the cooling rose quartz instantly wakes up my face,” says Kareena Tejwani from social media. “It softens puffiness around my eyes, makes my skin look smoother and just puts me in a good mood to start the day. On days I skip it, my face feels heavier and looks tired. It’s become my non-negotiable step.”
“Using a gua sha has become my favourite slow beauty experience. When I’m consistent with it, my face looks more sculpted (especially along the jawline),” says Akshat Malik. “I love how the jade glides on with my facial oil and melts away tension I didn’t even realise I was holding. It’s one of the rare tools that feels indulgent and gives visible results. I keep it on my bedside table because it’s become my wind-down routine.”
Found: a face cleanser brush that works as hard as you do. The double-sided design offers a silicone pad on one side to exfoliate the skin as well as micro-fibre bristles on the other side to thoroughly cleanse any dirt, debris or grime sitting on your face. The result? Skin that feels softer and more thoroughly cleansed. After all, what do we say to dirt, sweat and pollutants? Not today.
“My skin leans dull really quickly; and this brush has been a total game-changer,” Anusha Kala from the editorial team tells us. “The soft bristles make my daily cleanse feel deeper without stripping my skin; and the textured side is perfect for days when I need a little extra exfoliation. I love that it gives me a clean-canvas feel, like I’ve had a mini facial at home. My makeup sits better, my pores look tighter and my skin feels refreshed every time I use it.”
“This device is my instant reset button. I reach for it whenever my skin looks tired or saggy, especially before events or shoots,” says Roxanne Patel from the studio team. “The gentle microcurrents lift my cheekbones, tighten my jawline and give this glowy, well-rested look even when I’ve barely slept. What I love most is how quickly it works; five minutes is enough to make a visible difference. It’s like having a professional facial at home, minus the appointment and the effort.”
“If there’s one tool that has saved my skin through late nights, heatwaves and random breakouts, it’s this ice roller. I keep it in my freezer and use it whenever my skin feels inflamed or puffy,” says Nidhi Nagvekar from design. “The cooling sensation is addictive; and it instantly calms redness, tightens pores and makes my face look fresh again. It’s also my post-workout secret because it helps bring down heat and soothes my skin in seconds. Truly a must-have.”
