LED light treatment

193 replies

montenuit · 15/06/2018 08:17

Yesterday i had a complimentary LED light session at the beauty salon.

OMG my skin - redness gone down, pores disappeared.

Am so tempted to do a course. So expensive though. Has anyone else used it? Is it worth it? How many do you need to do and how often for it to have a long term effect?

That is the one i have got too, hoping for good results, mainly for lines

HesterHare · 14/07/2018 18:23

The replacement control box and wire for mine arrived today, going to give it a go tonight Grin
What did the Vit C do to your face (sorry can't see the name of poster who said that messed it up!), I've been using The Ordinary vitamin C suspension and feel like it's brightened my skin a bit, I suppose it's quite individual though.

It gave loads of really bad acne. It was 4 weeks ago but im still suffering a bit.

bumhead · 14/07/2018 19:25

Can I ask is everyone wiping down their mask with alcohol after use? I find if I don't mine is greasy and feels dirty

Fluffycloudland77 · 14/07/2018 19:29

I wipe with a damp face cloth before and after use.

ParadiseLaundry · 14/07/2018 19:31

@itsBritneyBeach ah, I know the struggle. it could well be, don't lose hope yet!

@Fluffycloudland77 That's a shame, I'm terrified of the same happening myself so am sticking to the same products. I'm such a beauty junky though, it's hard!

@bumhead mine gets greasy too. I use my household cleaner and a micro fibre cloth to clean it. It's 50/50 water vinegar and a few drops of lavender essential oil. Your Alcohol sounds like a better bet to clean it though.

JMAngel1 · 14/07/2018 21:53

Careful guys, my project E one says wipe down with damp cloth only - no chemicals or it may damage it.

HesterHare · 15/07/2018 00:02

I've just tried mine again with the new box and wire and exactly the same thing has happened Angry, red lights go decidedly orange after just a couple of minutes. I'm going to get in touch with the seller again and ask for an exchange on the mask as I think it must be a faulty one

princesstiasmum · 15/07/2018 08:34

My lights go orange.too.maybe it Is just the lights and mask still looks red.still not heard from my seller

princesstiasmum · 15/07/2018 08:35

Do anyone else's lights go orange?.I will look at my daughters when it arrives and see if hers does

justforthisnow · 15/07/2018 22:53

Baaa have bought the project e one, will report
Loads on Wish and Ali Express, anyone bought there?

HesterHare · 15/07/2018 22:58

Project E are sending me an entirely new mask because of the orange light issue so I'm guessing it's not normal.

princesstiasmum · 15/07/2018 23:40

I will get in touch with my seller again then, but noticed they look more orange when on high energy
My daughters comes this week, she has ordered it from ebay i will test it when it arrives

princesstiasmum · 17/07/2018 14:38

Me again,lol,;well my daughters mask was due to come tomorrow, but wishing she hadnt oredered that one now
The company was said to be UK based, but now discovered it is coming from China, and wont be here until the 25th, she is fuming,, but she has read reviews and it seems there are lots of complaints,she should have read them before,i always do
However she is going to ring ebay, as basically it was a lie that it was coming from the UK, her money hasnt been taken yet so hopefully she can stop it

bumhead · 17/07/2018 17:38

Princess Is it from Amazon? I would phone them and cancel the order and order from a different seller. I hate waiting for things and I've had this happened before where I clicked on buy for something that was meant to be Prime and then turned out it was coming from China...

princesstiasmum · 17/07/2018 18:13

bumhead no its from Ebay, she said she was going to ring today,
I cant get in touch with my seller though from Amazon, even though i have left a message, but i notice mine says returnable until 4th of August
Is yours the same as mine? a Beauty Star,?
Still has orange lights but actually looks red round the edges

TheFishInThePot · 17/07/2018 19:00

Watching this thread as I have an eye on these masks. Princess your DD should be able to cancel through her purchase history if the company was miss leading, go to solve a problem, and select the cancel option.

princesstiasmum · 17/07/2018 20:10

Thank you i will tell her,she might have done it already, but will let her know anyway

bumhead · 18/07/2018 19:05

Mine is the Project E one Princess.
Have you phoned Amazon directly? They should be able to sort it for you

princesstiasmum · 18/07/2018 21:31

Thank you,i will ring Amazon tomorrow,not had much spare time today
Are your lights proper red or orangey ?

princesstiasmum · 19/07/2018 12:27

My daughters mask has arrived after all earlier than she was told ,
It is smaller than mine with 7 colours, and not as heavy,
The quality looks just as good,
The lights on it are orange too, but the mask still looks red round the edges and between the lights and from the outside,
So maybe that is how its meant to be
Hester how is your new mask,any improvement on the red[orange] lights?
I dont think the price of them,except maybe the very expensive ones is much different in quality,

HesterHare · 19/07/2018 19:00

New mask hasn't arrived yet, will update when it does Smile

justforthisnow · 20/07/2018 22:57

Mask arrived, have only used red light so far which has increased oil production, no harm tho.
Will try other lights tomorrow.
Overall effect is good.

princesstiasmum · 21/07/2018 10:20

Hester so are the lights on this one properly red this time?
My daughters lights on hers look orange too, but overall the mask looks red, as mine does

justforthisnow · 22/07/2018 19:34

I'm noticing a difference in skin texture and have received compliments last 2 days from strangers. One didn't believe I'm 16 years married, and another didn't believe my age (39).
I'll take that!
I'm using red light 15 mins, blue 15 daily. Since only last Tuesday!
