Review title is Painful, needs eye protection, hard to read and unclear manual [SEP] I am interested in red light therapy. We all want to look younger, right? But, I feel like this was a bad idea.<br /><br />It comes in a box labeled "Colorful LED Beauty Mask" rather than the one pictured in the main listing photo. There doesn't seem to be a company name on anything. The product looks the same and the box I received is shown in other photos, so I believe I got the right thing.<br /><br />As the manual says, "Normal people use or stop using, ask the doctor after doctor." Yes, the manual is that poorly translated. I'm O.K. with a little grammar error here and there, but this was hard to understand. It doesn't make one feel confident in the quality. I don't even think it mentioned the microcurrent pegs. Do you need to use them or are they optional? What do they do? I really don't know after reading the manual.<br /><br />I can tell you that without the pegs in, the eye part dug in and felt horrible. I adjusted the mask strap to very loose, so it wasn't that. With the pegs in, the pegs in my forehead dug in and left marks that lasted over 30 minutes later, and one spot was still sore the next day. The microcurrent on just the lowest setting was a bit uncomfortable. Maybe it would be better when wearing a face mask, which is encouraged and which I had wanted to try.<br /><br />The eye holes do not block all the light from my eyes. The manual says to close eyes or use pads or eye shades. Dermatologists actually say to use blackout or opaque goggles.<br /><br />I didn't find it that heavy. Just awkward and painful. As others have mentioned, this is better lying down, since you can't open your eyes anyways. But, it's still not comfortable. It's also strange that the cord is only 3 1/2 feet, or maybe almost 4 feet stretched out. If I was to use it in bed, I'd need an extension cord.<br /><br />I can suffer a little for beauty, but I'm worried about the safety of this given the poor instructions, poor design and unknown origins. I can't recommend this for anyone, but in particular it is prohibited for pregnant women, children, thyroid disease, light allergic, drug users, and those with skin trauma (see photo). I recommend looking for an FDA-cleared device, preferably with built-in eye protection.
