I appreciate how analytical you are + really lovely to listen to!
Thank you for the detailed review. I’ve been enjoying your videos for years. I’m so sorry for your loss. Take care sweet lady 🌻🌺🌻🌺
Thank you for this very indepth review. Thinking about you all at this difficult time take care xx
I have a similar experience and I believe Grief is so misunderstood and different for every one. Grief is love with now where to go. For me, it has been a very difficult journey. I have had to get a lot of support, therapy, a class called Grief Share. Grief doesn't subside, it is a daily partner that I have become accustomed to and its ok. Keeping you in my prayers.
Great job on this video! You're very thorough, thoughtfully and concisely explained. Just excellent, in every way. ThankYou 🤗🥰
I’ve had the currentbody mask since the start of lockdown and love it 😍 sending u love for ur loss 💕💕
I found the most cost-effective LED silicone mask, I see the same Omnilux/CurrentBody LED mask on Alibaba, it only costs $86 per
I have used pcs. The price is very nice and the quality of the product is also very good. They are the factory wholesale price.
It is far more in depth than anyone i have watched before ..Thankyou for your thoughts. My son bought me Blueberry facemasks from Amazon. Big box 4 different types. All fruit. These are the most amazing masks i have ever tried. I believe they are Chinese. If i want them to have an effect for the day later. I use last thing at night. Yes i fall asleep. Stay as well as you can, yes griefs an anomaly. My Grandparents on both sides. I can't possibly get over. Grampy died 2011. 3 days before his 90th. Tears now. Love you Karen. Xxx 💞💞❤💕🐾🐾🐕 Watson you trooper ❤
Thankyou for taking the time to explain this, it’s been so helpful 🙏🌈
This is my very fist time coming across your video. I love you, so easy to watch and informative. It was so incredibly wonderful, many thanks ! As I came across you, I had also researched these two LED options and was hesitating, then once I saw that you had bought both of them, I thought, that's a sign I'll get them both, so thank you!
I feel so deeply for what you are currently dealing with. I am so sorry, sending so much love, it is an incredibly difficult time. Just remember to be kind to yourself. I found that to be very helpful advice when my beautiful Mum passed around this time last year. We had her birthday yesterday and it's of course so so hard (understatement) without her, but I promise you it does get easier to cope with day by day, week by week, month by month. xxxxx
If only more reviews were as intelligent and helpful as this! Thank you for all the information!
Thinking of you Karen ❤️ Sending you lots of love!
This video was really interesting! I am hearing more and more about this light therapy. Looking forward to hearing about your results and final thoughts etc xx
Absolutely concise and well researched thank you so much !
Wow girl you really did the research on this. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this informative video. Thinking of you and wishing you and your family comfort during this difficult time. xo
Thank you for sharing this, all your videos are very in depth and informative xx
Praying for you
Great to see you pop in Karen. I have been very interested in these devises but not educated enough to make an informed choice so this will be very helpful. I see your IG posts and know you are working through the process of loss, mine was 23 years ago...the thought of his singing , whistling and sense of humor are still close to me. Take care and be well🌞
Thanks Lisa, this was filmed before Dad passed but hopefully I'll be back soon. x
Anyone that uses a spreadsheet to decide on a product deserves a like, as I am the same 😂 great review!
Karen
I'm sorry about the loss of your Dad. I feel for you. Keep the faith.
Yes please give us your 4 week reviews of both light therapy devices .
I am currently going through this research. Thank you so much for this excellent analysis.
Very interesting really! Such an in-depth research which is what I am trying to look for because I believe red and infrared is what i need! That so much! Xoxo
Great video, keep your wonderful work.
Very in-depth thanks for that ... hope your all doing ok xx
Hi, I just bought lightstim hand held device.. you mentioned infared.. i am glad to inform you that lightstim got both the led lights and infrared:)
Very nice to see you again hope your well, very informative video I am hearing a lot about this technology now and I am interested but I'll wait to see your thoughts on the results 🙂
I’m so sorry for your loss Karen . Please take time for yourself
I have one of those Red light therapy hand held, actually it has 4 colours. It didn't come with anything to put on my face. It was a gift. I think its to much hassle, I'm terrible. I do my morning wash and whatever i feel like. Same at night. You look beautiful girl. Thinking of you constantly. Hubby went out and get Penny chicken & Fish. Thankyou for taking me seriously. My friend said, you can't tell a cat has a temperature. I can her nose is warm and dry. Her Haws are ever so slightly showing (third eyelid) ive had cats all my life so like you are with Watson i have a sith sense. Anyway stay well xxx 💞❤💕🐕🐾🐾
As you say, with your pets you just know when something isn't right, its like you are bonded with them. Get well soon Penny. xx
Thank you, from NYC!
Sorry for your lose my prayers for your family 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much for all your info... I have all the same concerns! Thank you. 👏🏻
I've had the Current Body one for about 4 weeks now. Can't wait ro see what your thoughts are!
Sending you lots of love ❤
Are you seeing any results? I got mine last week and using 5 dats a week. Interested to know of personal results/opinions. X
@@sarahwatkins2285 my skin is deffo more luminous and even toned. But I still use tretinoin and botox 🤷🏻♀️ I think is a great device for healthy skin, as long as you have a good routine too, you know? xox
Sabrina Panero aww fantastic. Thank you. I do feel my skin is a little more even and brighter and I also have the Dennis gross eye mask I use in the mornings I bought last week too. My skin care regime is good but recently added in a high quality retinol product to use at nighttime. I just need to find a good sunscreen for my face now that doesn’t break my skin out as most do. Xx
❤️thank you. Thinking of you.
Sending love X thank you for the video
I have an incandescent device. Beurer il 50. It's fantastic for neck/shoulders. It gets really hot, and it might work for those who feel heat is an effect all by itself. But there are so many types of pain, so I don't know which ones it would work especially well for. I would say probably training soreness and possibly overuse on muscles/tendons. But probably only for people who particularly enjoy heat. If I go very near or beyond the near limit (30 cm/16 inches), it feels almost like burning, and the tissue might stay hot for hours. It revs up metabolism, I think. And weight loss works with near infrared in general.
Hope you doing ok, always thinking of you, sending loads of love
From what i have researched (and i did research looooong and wide), they are both likely not going to work (not enough mW/cm2 and not enough leds). I did end up buying a professional one , a Celluma, a panel you can use wherever you want on your body , I spent almost 1000 euros ; and i barely noticed a difference in five months of regular use. But, good luck. :)
This is a very interesting comment- I've done a lot of research too and also thought that celluma seemed a solid option. May I ask which version you got? You're the first person I've seen not to rave about the results!
@@alicepictoria7125 The Face one. They recommend doing it three times a week. I have to admit i might do it twice but often not three times a week, so .. maybe it is my own fault ;)
@@cristinarisso8668 thanks for replying! 😁
@@alicepictoria7125 OF COURSE ;))
Just a tip for you if you are still researching red light therapy because I did too myself and i found Leanne Veniere's Redjuvenator quite impressive. Her studies and info are extensive. The light is costly but when compared to others on the market it is quite comparable.
Thinking of you and your family xxx
I have the Dennis gross eye mask and the packaging states it includes IF, red and amber light therapy. Very easy and comfortable to use x
Have you had any benefits from use?
Thanks for your review. Xx
Brilliant, thanks! New sub!
That was a really thorough review, thank you! I'm going to get a mask of just red light (plus option of others) and not also the infrared as a) wallet is in lockdown and b) I want to incorporate the habit into my lifestyle first. I know the results will be limited and/or take longer, but at least the mask will have a neck section too. At £42 from Amazon its easier to justify.
Thanks again!
Hope you're doing ok Karen, lots of love xx
Have you looked into Celluma? It’s a combination of red and infrared, and it’s pliable so that you could wrap it around your knee, your neck or anywhere else. You can also use it on your face if you wanted.
Sounds good but at over £800 its WAY over my budget lol. I'm really happy with the devices I chose x
Hope your doing ok I know this is A hard time for you One day at a time take care of yourself I’ll pray for your healing
Love to you Karen. 💞
Great review and research . Right now the lights are too much of a hassle for me
Lovely to see you Karen; only yesterday I was thinking about you and wondering how long it would be until you felt up to coming back to you tube.
Thank you for this in depth review. The face mask you have ordered sounds very interesting. The fact that you dont need goggles and therefore you're getting the anti-ageing benefits on the skin around the eyes sounds perfect. I'm trying to decide between getting one of these masks or the Trinity Nuface with the eye and lip attachment.
A very helpful review, I have been doing similar research but stopped as I also lost my Dad (passed away 2 months ago) and making this a priority again hasn’t happened until 2 days ago when I bought the Currentbody mask which I’m let to receive. I’m also planning on buying a separate smaller unit for my body. like you I read the Redlight book and am excited about the benefits red light can provide from pain to not being able to sleep. Please do another review and let us know what you decide. Thinking of you.
I'm so sorry you also lost your Dad :0( - I have done another video with my before and after results using the current body mask and I'm publishing another one on the care lamp tomorrow. xx
I emailed Dr. Dennis Gross about infra-red in their mask. This is what they told me :
“Hi there, The DRx Spectralite Faceware Pro features Blue LED light in 415nm and Red LED light in, 605nm (Amber), 630nm (Red), 660nm (Deep Red), and 880nm (Infrared) wavelengths.
Intensity of SpectraLite FaceWare Pro: Maximum Intensity Output:
Blue Light: 50+ mW/cm2, Red Light: 61-65 mW/cm2
Hi Karen. I am so sorry for your loss, and please know you have plenty of love and support here. In regards to the red light therapy device, I read an article that suggested applying green tea to the skin before treatment. Have you heard anything about that? From what I read, simply applying freshly brewed green tea - or a green tea toner to clean skin 20 minutes before treatment would amp up the beneficial gains from the red light device. Just wondered if you had caught wind of that. Anyway, take care of yourself. Your UA-cam family will be here when you decide to return. God bless.
Thanks so much Debbie! No, I hadn't heard of the green tea tip but a quick look shows there is actually some research around it! x
I use the Innisfree green tea with my Dr. Dennis Gross mask. I’ve read that near infrared works ten times better with green tea. Works for me!
Thankyou for such detailed info. Much appreciated. Can you include a link for the book you got from Amazon, please?
Its in the description. x
I’ve just been going through similar research. Haven’t made any decisions yet, but this was extra helpful. Have you any views on radio frequency devices?
I hold you in my heart. Daughters losing fathers bring out so many emotions. Mine died years ago, but I can still be surprised at how much I miss him. Hx
Check out the Celluma unit, multipurpose but pricey, that will be my next purchase!
I have one in my FabFitFun cart right now for 57$. It’s normally 299$ . But there aren’t any reviews or anything! It seems new . I don’t want to spend 60$ on something when I don’t know if it’s good quality . It’s dermalactives brand 7 in 1 led light
Just me but if it has done that to your neck in 4 minutes then I would worry about skin cancer.They used to say Sun lamps were safe.I really would have another think about how safe it is to use?Great to see you back and usual cheering self.
Thanks EJ - I can only go on the research and the research show no link to cancer - the burn on my neck is from the heat which makes sense. This is not me back - as per the beginning title this was filmed before Dad died. x
Thank you....💔
Do you know Aduro? It’s seems similar to current body, also has infrared . I like it before has green led color for sun damage spots. What do you think?
I have heard of it - it has more colours but I only want Red & IR for ageing :0) x
Some people use the mask on other parts like lay it on their neck or put it on your knee etc.. if it's only 10 minutes that's not bad.
One thing that puzzled me. Red light works on skin. It helps scars and wounds. Around 6x0 nm. So what is it you think doesn't happen with those masks? The collagen and elastin? For pain, sure, you need 8x0 nm. But for skin, why would I want to look for a dual device?
Because the studies show that the best results on both pain AND anti ageing are from Red light AND infra red light. x
Have you watched Hotanflashy here on UA-cam? If not you would love her. She has in depth reviews of these devices. But for her hooded eyes an has used NuFace micro current with the ele attachment. Results will blow your mind.
How does Current body compare to the Light Salon?
I haven't used the Light Salon one I'm afraid so can't comment. x
Any difference between this and the mito LED Red light ?
I haven't researched the Mito one I'm afraid but it looks similar to the Care Lamp. x
Thay have some on wish any good
Karen what did you choose in the end? I was thinking of possibly getting the infrared lamp for arthritis pain but want a mask for skin care. Sorry for your loss.
I got both and have done before and after videos :0) I use the Carelamp for arthritis pain and the other mask for anti ageing. x
You could use the lamp for both x
Dr Dennis Gross has a stick, powered by a regular exchangeable battery, called DRx SpotLite Acne Treatment. It's meant primarily for acne. But would it work for under eyes? That's something I've thought about as well, and I can't see that any of the masks are all that likely to cover that area. Tell me if I'm wrong.
As for results on pain, two areas should have instant results: Hands and neck. If you don't notice something immediately, I would be a bit wary of the device or variables. I see some say in Amazon reviews that they've had no effect whatsoever. There are supposedly three types of responses. Normal, exaggerated (get skin issues from the lamps) and no effect. This is probablyt genetic.
The small Dr Gross device is a mix of blue & red light - blue light for acne. It would be quite tedious to use under the eyes I'd think. x
The Beauty Maverick Good point on the Gross device. That's out..
Hmmmmm ok I just went back and looked and it said “near infrared rays”. 🙄. So I should probably oh not get it
red and near infra red are the most effective Boots has a mask on offer x
Enjoyed your video but before you return this device, please do more research regarding the eyes with R.L.T. , Not promoting Joov, but they have backed hundreds of studies. Most devices are not damaging to the eyes when used as directed. Many people actually have improved vision. I have 2 full body devices in my sauna. Of course you shouldn't look directly at the lights but I have never worn goggles. My skin has never looked better & improved joint pain. I actually use one on my dog with arthritis. It is almost as healthy as the sun. This is just a suggestion to read the actual studies by joov. 😉
Hi :) Which brand/s of light devices do you use? Cheers
I did read the Joov studies, they contributed to my choice of device :0) x
She uses Joov! I mentioned Joov in the video. x
PS. Joov is a great choice if in USA - for us in UK it takes 6 weeks and is much more expensive. x
For your neck pain, see a physio and do relevent exercises (and probably some sport in general). For headaches and knee, it looks like your body is inflamed - improve your diet and gut health. Check out The Human Being Diet by Petronella Ravenshear to understand how and why. Best wishes.
Thanks Jac - I’ve seen many physios and also tried many diets, I eat healthy for the most part. I have clinical conditions - Ehlers Danlos & migraines - mechanical and vascular issues don’t respond to diet but I’m on a treatment plan 👏
@@TheBeautyMaverick sorry to hear of your struggles. Check out her book anyway. Having avoided fad diets my entire life, this was one that seemed based on up to the minute nutrional science around gut health (and impact on all your systems, and common sense. Along with some fundamental guidance systems that are to follow and have profound effects on many different levels.
*easy to follow
I called and emailed the Dr. Dennis Gross folks and they explained that their mask DOES have both red and near infrared light, so I bought it. I have used it almost daily for over a year. I am 65 years old and have never had any “work” done at all, including fillers, but yesterday someone said she thought I was 35! That was on Zoom, though, and I put on foundation for those weekly calls, but no fancy ring light. My daughter, who can be brutally honest, said her volleyball teammates thought I was 45, not 35, and she thinks that’s more accurate. Haha, I’ll take it! I do use Retin-a, the Ziip microcurrent device, and various other potions, plus I’m a 40-year vegan-leaning vegetarian, but I do think that my skin has definitely improved with the mask. I just watched Gothamista on UA-cam, however, and she recommended using a purportedly even better near infrared mask with a 20% coupon. She said the blue light in my mask can cause melasma or brown spots even though it helps with acne, which I rarely have anymore. So I shall ponder whether I should ask for that one for Christmas and pass the Dr. Dennis Gross mask on to my daughter.🤷🏻♀️
You CAN use the Dr. Dennis Gross mask without the blue light, but there are fewer red light bulbs than on the one Gothamista recommended because of the blue light bulbs.
@@joysegars9399 you’re right
I'm sure you had a different channel name...or am I going mad?
I did yes, I did a whole video explaining the name change lol. x
@@TheBeautyMaverick I've been away from UA-cam for a while so must have missed it....you are looking mighty good after all this time.....I will have to check back over your past vids.
can't you just keep your just keep your eyes closed instead of the goggles?
You can yes :0)
