I was sure those 'LED mask' things were just a gimmick for rich people

I mean, a client gave me hers to try for a week after she moved and didn't want to pack it. I used it every night, and idk, maybe it's just me but my skin felt way less puffy in the morning. I'm still not telling clients to go buy a $300 one, but I get the hype now. Has anyone else actually tried one and seen real results?

Wondering what color light you were using on that mask. My sister swears by the red one for her rosacea but the blue light did nothing for me. Did your client happen to mention which setting she used?

Sounds like a fancy placebo to me. Not convinced it's worth the hype.

Oh, the classic "rich person's junk" turning out to actually work. I've been there with a fancy face roller a friend left behind. Sometimes the gimmick is just a decent tool with a stupid price tag.
