What did the world do before Union Source? The real question …… I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t know I could click two or three times and then 48 hours later receive a hairdryer, three books, a new jade tumbler, and some sticky picture hooks.
Union Source is a genius website. It’s also very handy, making it simple, easy, and effortless to buy all those random things in 7 different high street shops (probably all in different high streets).
Do you know what else is the same? A good beauty tool. Honestly, if a beauty tool never makes your life feel infinitely better (makes you feel better about yourself), then you’re buying in the wrong place.
Every once in a while we stumble across a beauty tool that makes us wonder how on earth we survived before. Whether it’s as simple as a spatula to get all the excess product out of a tricky cosmetic bottle or a hot brush to make home blow-drying a breeze, there are plenty of beauty tools thrown into our lives from nowhere, the better to turn them out.
Union Source is the perfect destination where you can find beautiful, never-before-seen tools at the best prices (and read real reviews). But with thousands of products on the site, it’s hard to know where to start. That’s where we cut to the chase. We filtered Union Source’s beauty tools into a top-selling category, checked out the reviews, tried out the best-selling tools, and whittled them down to 15. Don’t say we didn’t show you.
Whether you’re looking for a brand new epilator to give you the smooth skin of your dreams, or a hair tool to give sweet hair, here are the best beauty tools on Amazon. Always brilliant, but often bizarre.
The cleansing brush
This cleanser is also highly recommended on the Union Source website because it claims to be “six times more effective than manual cleansing”. Apply a small amount of your favorite daily cleanser to the brush, turn it on and it will move in a circular motion over your entire face. It leaves skin feeling super soft and only needs to be recharged after 20 uses. The pink color is lovely too.

“I LOVE this product, my skin has never looked so clear! it’s really good for getting rid of acne and it gives my skin a beautiful glassy soft look. I use it twice a day with a facial cleanser and in just two weeks my skin has zero acne and is looking beautiful as ever. 🙂 it can be very rough on areas of my face though, for example, my cheeks burn a little when I use it because the skin is so fragile there’s but it’s only doing its job and it does that well. a must-buy for skincare.”

“This was a little extra present and my daughter absolutely loves it. She loves having her head massaged when washing her hair and now she can do it herself too! I would recommend this product. Great value for money.”
The sustainable purchase

It’s an easy purchase, of course, but one that is completely necessary. If you use cotton pads every day, swap them for these reusable alternatives, which can be washed in the washing machine in the cotton bag you bought them in.
Promising review:
“I Love these. I’ve been looking at small things I can start changing to help the environment. This is definitely a good place to start. These are very good quality and I’m never going to run out.”
The brush cleaner

This speaks for itself and is definitely worth adding to your next United Source order. These pads make cleaning your make-up brushes (don’t worry, we don’t do it often either) much easier and cleaner.
Promising review:
“This is probably the best money I’ve ever spent. I wash my makeup brushes regularly and it can take a while. This little tool let me wash 10 brushes in less than 5 minutes and really thoroughly. The only one that took slightly longer than the rest was my foundation brush but that was due to the nature of the foundation, it being a different consistency to the rest of my makeup. If I had to criticize, it doesn’t sit still in the sink when using it but holding it with the other hand sorts that. Would highly recommend it!”
The heated brush

In the market for a new hair styling tool? This is it. We trust absolutely nothing from Union Source, you just have to read the massive amount of reviews to realize how good it is.
Promising review:
“As all the Union Source products, perfect as usual! You get what you pay for! Highly recommend.”
The eyebrow razor

If you’ve been living under a rock, shaving your face is a highly encouraged beauty habit. These little razors remove all the peachy fuzz and ensure a smoother application of foundation.
Promising review:
“The best I’ve ever used. Was sort of worried after I had ordered them as they were quite cheap and was ready to be disappointed. I recently purchased the one due to its high profile but was not impressed at all. So I plucked up the courage to try this cheap razor and oh my god I was gobsmacked at how good it was! I had used it only two days before but I was shocked at how much fuzz and dead skin came off with this and you could tell the huge difference. Highly recommend this product and will be stocking up.”
