Ok, so watching as an optometrist at the innovative end of my profession, I am impressed. My practice routinely uses IPL (intense pulsed light) to treat the inflammatory side of dry eye and is shortly to commence photobiomodulation for retardation and potential improvement of dry macular degeneration. Our training is that pulsed equals goggles and no rejuvenating serums beforehand. After the age of 40 our retinal photoreceptor mitochondria (cellular batteries is a good analogy) just do not “hold the charge” ( think electric vehicles, worthless after a number of years as the batteries are so degraded. Blue light is literally a killer, it speeds up this degradation. Never use blue light therapies near your eyes!! Your excellent piece fleetingly refers to blue but please highlight this. We get so much exposure in our daily lives that we should all wear both a uv block and a blue blocking filter in our spex.
Thank you for this! Is it safe to use near infared wave lengths (I’m looking at a panel with multiple lengths) good and safe for dry eyes? I have dry eye disease.
REF: Rosacea. I am 66. I discovered an easy solution to help my rid rosacea in my 40's. I keep a box of baking soda in my shower, sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon in my hand and GENTLY rub on the rosacea foe about 15 seconds. I did this everyday till it cleared up (less than a week) and now do it about twice a week for maintenance. No, it does not tear my skin. I have suggested to many and it works!!
Please bring her back. She’s been the most informative person that makes you understand it better. I am 45 and have been doing it 1.5 years now and am absolutely amazed at the results. Knowing about rooibos now will hopefully be even more life changing🤞🏼
I have an old LED multi-spectrum I purchased several years ago for $400. It works wonders!!! I even completely put in remission within 3 days a bad case of Shingles my mother in law had using LED light on her back. Healing Shingles rash takes about 6 months on medication...LED dried it up completely without ZERO medication.
I had a full thickness cornea transplant about 2 years ago…I have had to take steroid eye drops daily since (which is bad for your eyes)otherwise I would start rejecting cornea within days… I have started using red light for skin without goggles (smallish mito table panel) and have drastically reduced my need for steroid eye drops… as a very welcome side effect .
Oh wow , I have keratoconus and I wear sclera contacts I get a lot of inflammation and I also have to get steroid drops when I’m on a crisis I just started using the led mask without the googles but I saw your comment and I thought maybe this is also might be beneficial for me eyes .
I've been using red light therapy for about 18 years. I do it 3 to 5 times a week usually at night while I'm watching tv. I do not use a serum with it but I recently started adding organic cold-pressed hexane-free castor oil to my moisturizers and that has made a huge huge huge huge difference in my skin!!!!!! Absolutely amazing!!!
@miracleyorkies4212 - Would be really nice if you would reply. I would like to know if you are using the castor oil during the treatment? I would assume the mask would get icky if you did.
@@Author_Alyssa_Taylor no, but I don't wash my face prior to using it. So there may be some that has absorbed in my skin from several hours prior to using it
Thank you both!! And yes, please bring Bev back!! This has been the most thorough information I’ve heard on this subject… I’m so appreciative. You both are absolutely lovely. 🥰
I bought a red light mask and then bought the Maysama serum and got amazing results. Then it ran out and so thought I'd try the current body green tea one and I felt it didn't work as well so I've just reordered my second bottle of maysama serum and will never be going back. Brilliant video Gemma. I love Bev. Could listen to her all day ❤
This QnA session is so thorough. The host absolutely covered all the possible questions, and Bev is so knowledgeable. I'm so glad that I stumbled upon this youtube! I've learned SO much!
For the past two months, I've been using a red light therapy device from Future Form Official. Being in my late 50s, I decided to try it primarily for joint pain relief and to improve my skin tone. I dedicate 20 minutes each day to it, focusing on my face, neck, and upper chest. To my surprise, my chronic migraines have almost vanished, allowing me to sleep peacefully through the night. Additionally, my skin has become more radiant and youthful-looking. Despite my age, I've always been complimented on my skin, and this therapy has enhanced it even further. The experience is incredibly soothing, and I wholeheartedly recommend red light therapy for its diverse benefits.
I use my red light mask as soon as my alarm goes off, before I even get out of bed. I hit the snooze button and it goes off at pretty much the same time as the treatment is done. I’ve had amazing results doing it this way and it very easily works into my schedule.
I had eye surgery, lid reduction, i used. My celluma led light daily and the swelling and swelling went down remarkably. The doctor was somewhat amazed. I use near infrared daily on my legs due to restless leg syndrome. Also arthritis in my knee. Red light over shots. I wish I had the body table.
Thank you for this video. It confirmed somethings I knew and taught me a few other things. I would like to see Bev back on the channel with you. Please extend my thanks to her as well. It's refreshing to hear an intelligent conversation regarding beauty treatments. Well done, the pair of you!
This was great info plus a refresher. I’ve been using Omnilux face & décolleté masks for about 2 yrs, 3x/wk, for 20 min. per treatment. I called Omnilux in 2022 & asked if one 20 min. vs. one 10 minute treatment done 3x/week was ok & was told it was just fine so I have been doing it that way since my purchase. Results have been finer skin pores, a decrease in (but not completely gone) hyperpigmentation/sun spots. LED has definitely been a great addition to my skincare routine!
I am SO thrilled to have found these posts you've collaborated on ~ how fortunate for me! I just yesterday purchased my very first red light mask~ the PRANA~ & chose to order the serum, after a bit of research & some glowing reports from another youtuber, MaryEllen. She is someone I trust who has been using the red light therapy for a few years, & recently replaced her Omnilux w/Bev's lovely design, the PRANA. Very excited to see how we get along, & will be sure to report back at some point. *Also, having found these posts w/Bev, it made me aware I was no longer subbed to this channel~not sure why or how. I recommend folks double check now & then, since a channel's content will still show up occasionally, even if you're unsubscribed. Thank you very much Gemma and Bev~ greatly appreciate your time, as well as the wealth of information provided here. As a fair skinned woman living in the desert for over a decade now, my skin has truly taken a hit~ plus, I'm nearly 60 now. Some extra effort in skin care is always a grand idea, imho.Samantha in AZ
I always think these are way too expensive for me to manage to buy but when i think of how much money i waste on makeup i dont wear - i could have saved up for one! Need to start a savings pot
They aren't as expensive as you may think. Sure, some are, but not all. Just read all the reviews, even the 1 star reviews. That will tell you what you need to know.
Red light made a huge difference on 2 little pink moles on my chest. 1 disappeared and the other is getting smaller so I have hopes. Had I known that was going to happen I would have taken pictures. I had some darker moles and they have flattened out and lightened tremendously! I was shocked because I did not expect that. I go to a tanning salon that has red light and I go every other day and they are 10 min long sessions.
This was an amazing video!! Very, very detailed and I got questions answered that I’ve had for a long time. I appreciate all the work that went into to this from the both of you!! And yes, please have Bev back on and tell her thank you!! Thank you Gemma!!!😊😊😊
Thank you Bev and Gemma! ❤ This a huge hobby of mine ! I am fascinated by the anatomy of the skin and how different skincare ingredients repair the skin down to the cellular level. I didn’t want this video to end 😁.
As a biochemist I'm a little confused about the description of the cell "breathing in" molecules from the extracellular space.. The import and export of molecules in the cell is a highly regulated process involving lots of different receptors. How does swelling of the cell induce cellular uptake?
The light is pulsing, so it's not the cell swelling after treatment. Although I would like to see the difference in tested cell uptake measured between constant red light treatment vs pulsed treatment. Perhaps there's more swelling pist treatment, leading us to believe it received more benefits.
This was one of the most informative interesting videos I've seen in ages - and I watch/read/listen a lot! When I understand the science is when I am the most motivated! Thanks to both of you! xx from Oregon
Excellent!!! Cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this interview. Love learning new things and this is a fascinating science! Already have my red light now to just add my roobios to the routine
Great video. Personal advice tho - Avoid Current Body mask - it gave me and my friend hyperpigmentation. And for me it also led to extra type of growths around the face. Their customer support is also the worst!
YES!!!! Bring her back. I saw her on another TH-cam video last year and learned so much about pulsed red light. I've not invested in any red light mask because no one had a pulsing one. I'm so excited about this Maysama mask. However, I also need something for my "turkey neck" and was hoping they would come out with a neck and decolletage light therapy too. ??? My skin and neck are looking way better with just using Dr. Pen and ZIIP. But now it's time to invest in the red light therapy. This video is even better than the one I saw last year. Thank you!!! 🥰
I asked r red light expert Alex Fergus about this. You don’t need a mask if you have a panel. The panel fir me is better since I can’t target more areas
Thank you! I stopped my red light treatments because I can't stand cleansing my face and not applying my serums until afterward. Now I will feel so much better!❤
I love science so this was very informative!! I'm 61 so red liggt therapy is probably needed. I really loved the explanation of how and why this works. Thank you!!!!
Well made and very informative. These are questions I have had for a year or two, especially whether it's necessary to cleanse the face before LED (because doing so always dries me out too much so I find it best to not cleanse in the morning before LED).
Thank you so much!! This was excellent information, very helpful!! I bought the Current Body face and neck masks after you and your mom presented it a couple years ago, LOVE it!!! THANK YOU!
The new LED mask from Maysama looks amazing. Covering the mouth is an excellent idea and so many different settings. Can’t wait to hear about it. I have the current body one but I’m very tempted by this one. It’s good to know I can use my LED mask in the morning whilst I snooze without even getting out of bed!
I have been doing Red light Led for years then I stopped and low and behold my skin improved rapidly once I stopped all I can think is that constant use isn't great but using it intermittently allows your skin to benefit perhaps recover?
Wow & Wow! What a great interview. Thank you for bringing in an expert and talking about the scientific basis. This is simply the best review I’ve seen. I wish I hadn’t gotten the mask but pulse - too late now. But you’ve given the info I need for optimising use.
Love all the information. I have been using Maysama Green Roobois for about a year. Just started red light therapy about 5 weeks ago. Excited to compare my 3 month pictures.
There’s another video on TH-cam doing a review of maysama and he said about 6 inches is optimal but you can pull back farther to get more skin exposure buy it won’t be as strong.
This is brilliant Gemma! I bought the CB mask ..5 days ago using your code and some green tea serum… so this is perfect timing❤ I appreciated the discount and now your answering all my questions 😊
Have just ordered my subscription for the Maysama serum 👍..I'm 58 and been using the currentbody mask and neck led and love them,it was your original video with your mum Gemma and the neck mask that got me onto LED...the results are amazing. I now use mine every other day for maintenance 😁
Many thanks, that has been so informative. I have just purchased Maysama LED panel and really noticed a difference in my rosacea, after so many years of trying so many different serums, creams and even thread vein treatment last year. Very happy.😊
Thanks soooooo much for this information. It’s been wicked helpful. There is so much conflicting and contradicting information and it’s very confusing. Especially when it comes to if we should use a serum before red light or after. The mask I have a home says not to use anything until afterwards. Then I have a red light wand from a different company and they say to use a serum ( theirs or course) before using. In fact, it actually won’t turn on unless you use a serum or something to moisturize your skin.
Question: I do Finnish sauna every day (not infrared, just traditional dry sauna). What should I think of regarding the timing of the Red Light Therapy? As of now, I do sauna at lunch and LED in the evening to be safe, but I would prefer doing LED in the morning if it is not affected by my sauna a few hours later. Thanks!
This is one of the best, if not he best, skin videos I've watched. It went through every question that has occurred to me about red light (I'm a new but avid user). Thank you, truly, thank you!!
This is the best video I’ve ever watched and the most knowledge I’ve learned from anyone. I think I need to watch it again to soak in all that knowledge in!
So interesting and informative. Thank you Bev for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.....and to you Gemma for having Bev on here, what a fab idea! Well done both.....hope you enjoyed your lunch 😊
Questions for Bev: 1. Do some people just not respond to red light therapy, and do we know why this might be? (I used the currentbody hand perfector unit for more than 6 months, as directed, with Maysama serum, and there was no visible change in my skin. In fact, my hand skin looks better since stopping!). 2. Is there a risk of fat loss from red light therapy? Thanks 😊
I've read that red light therapy is used for fat loss, Google it, and there is a risk of losing fat in the face although I don't know if this is true. I probably only use 3 times a week for shorter period of time and when you're not accessing daylight. I've just bought a small once I have no idea yet if it's going to be useful, I'm hoping my eyesight will improve, but I'm still on the fence about red light therapy until I see evidence personally.
What is the frequency of the pulsed lights? For those of us who have already invested in a red light panel, is there an external plug we could purchase that would pulse the light?
That explains why I’m having migraines more frequently sinse starting pulse red light therapy! I thought it was supposed to be good for your eyes! This was a huge eye opener. Thank you!!
Good for the eyes,maybe? But certainly not for the brain... I also get migraines and wouldn't wish them on anyone. I've reduced mine substantially, by eating protein with every meal, especially if sugary sweets or desserts are involved. Protein helps keep your blood sugar levels stable. Low blood sugar seems to trigger my migraines. Stress tablets with multi Vitamin B complex also helps a lot with stabilizing blood sugar and reducing Cortisol (stress hormone) that may trigger migraine episodes. Hope this helps you as well! Best of luck to you!
Thank u Gemma. Love this lady. I want to hear her talk for days. She's wonderful. I really enjoyed this video. U knocked it out of the park. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have recently picked up a bottle of Maysama to add to my red light therapy, thanks to your recommendation. I love the serum on its own and I’m looking forward to seeing the results of them working together.
Wow - a science and a skincare lesson all in one and how lovely is Bev. Great video Gemma. You were a great team for this video. So tempted to buy the pulsed light panel and the Rooibos. Might have to save up for it.
I'm really interested in more studies using castor oil with LED red light masks. There is some evidence claiming castor oil increases the benefits significantly, but other experts say don't put oil on the skin prior to use. So confusing, LoL
The one issue I’ve had with the Maysama serum is that it’s incredibly drying so I am very glad to know that I can use an essence or a serum to help with that.
Humectants can be drying if not followed up with emollients (directly after LED). We are launching some new formulations in Q2 and Q3 which may suit you better so please stay in touch 🙏💚
@@maysamabeauty1839 I always follow up LED with more hydration steps but was afraid to layer anything else with the rooibos serum prior to treatment, since most instructions say not to apply skincare. Now I will try to incorporate a mist or a serum to help with that temporary tight feeling. Thanks for the reply!
This was the best and most informative video I have ever seen regarding RLT. You have answered so many of our questions, much appreciated I will be sharing with my sister and friends Thank you. I have the Omnilux mask for more than 3 years and at 66 yrs of age I have never seen my skin look so good . Have a wonder lunch ladies and look forward to seeing Bev again on your channel.👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼✌🏽
Thank you so much for this informative video! I just purchased a red light therapy mask and the Maysama Rooibos Serum. You answered my concerns regarding Tretinoin use. I am now comfortable using red light in the morning and still using the Tretinoin at bedtime.
I use a 4 different light therapy wand and I seen and felt with my hands a difference right away. The light therapy helped my serum get into my skin. The results are amazing. Be careful with your eyes.
I'm South African, living in China at the moment and I am drinking my South African Rooibos tea every day. (Rooibos is indigenous to South Africa. It's good for health and for skincare). Never heard about Maysma, but must be good if it has Rooibos as an ingredient.. I also started red light mask therapy about two weeks ago, I already love it!
Thank you so much for this incredibly informative video, Gemma! I just have to share my personal experience with red light therapy-it's been a game-changer for my skin health. After doing a ton of research, I decided to go with a panel from Future Form Official, a fantastic company based in Norway. Not only did their products come highly recommended, but they were also very reasonably priced. After a couple of months of consistent use, I've noticed significant improvements in my skin's texture and overall complexion. Absolutely thrilled with the results! Just wanted to throw that out there for anyone considering it-definitely worth the investment. Thank you again, Gemma, for always bringing such helpful content to the table!
I use Red light LED therapy mask because I don’t want to use more invasive procedures (I tried Botox once but I didn’t like my constant ‘surprised’ look) I’m not young (nearly 70) but I’m told I don’t look it - so my red light & skin cleansing will do for me plus good sleep!😂❤️

I love science so this was very informative!! I'm 61 so red liggt therapy is probably needed. I really loved the explanation of how and why this works. Thank you!!!!
You will not regret it. The difference it makes to your skin is just amazing! I’m 56 and been using one for almost 2 years
This was by far the best discussion on LED I have come across. Thoroughly enjoyed this!
Well made and very informative. These are questions I have had for a year or two, especially whether it's necessary to cleanse the face before LED (because doing so always dries me out too much so I find it best to not cleanse in the morning before LED).
So great to see the two of you together! Thank you fir a very informative and fun video Gemma and Bev
Hi Claudia x
Thank you so much!! This was excellent information, very helpful!! I bought the Current Body face and neck masks after you and your mom presented it a couple years ago, LOVE it!!! THANK YOU!
I need Bev’s full skincare routine she looks amazing!!
Yes ,please tell us all. Both of you are just stunning.
That’s a great idea!
Could it be the Botox?
I think they said they use botox
The new LED mask from Maysama looks amazing. Covering the mouth is an excellent idea and so many different settings. Can’t wait to hear about it. I have the current body one but I’m very tempted by this one. It’s good to know I can use my LED mask in the morning whilst I snooze without even getting out of bed!
Wow! This was so interesting and informative. Bev is a wealth of knowledge. Bring her back sometime! I learned so much! xx
Aww thank you so much Elizabeth! 💚
This was so helpful! You’ve answered so many questions I had on LED.
I have been doing Red light Led for years then I stopped and low and behold my skin improved rapidly once I stopped all I can think is that constant use isn't great but using it intermittently allows your skin to benefit perhaps recover?
How often were you using it? Because I get very sire red skin and led really helps that.
Wow & Wow! What a great interview. Thank you for bringing in an expert and talking about the scientific basis. This is simply the best review I’ve seen. I wish I hadn’t gotten the mask but pulse - too late now. But you’ve given the info I need for optimising use.
Love all the information. I have been using Maysama Green Roobois for about a year. Just started red light therapy about 5 weeks ago. Excited to compare my 3 month pictures.
Has there been any improvement?
I wish someone would have asked how close you would have to sit in front of the pulsed light panel in order to get all the benefits?
There’s another video on TH-cam doing a review of maysama and he said about 6 inches is optimal but you can pull back farther to get more skin exposure buy it won’t be as strong.
Love this video! We want more Bev!👏🏼
This is brilliant Gemma! I bought the CB mask ..5 days ago using your code and some green tea serum… so this is perfect timing❤ I appreciated the discount and now your answering all my questions 😊
Fantastic! Excellent explanations, answering all my questions re: LED and I bought the serum in a flash!
Loved it! Super helpful, interesting and informative. And sweet! ❤
Brilliant and very informative really enjoyed this video Bev explained the science behind red light therapy in an easy to understand way.
Have just ordered my subscription for the Maysama serum 👍..I'm 58 and been using the currentbody mask and neck led and love them,it was your original video with your mum Gemma and the neck mask that got me onto LED...the results are amazing. I now use mine every other day for maintenance 😁
Many thanks, that has been so informative. I have just purchased Maysama LED panel and really noticed a difference in my rosacea, after so many years of trying so many different serums, creams and even thread vein treatment last year. Very happy.😊
watching this doing my Omnilux mask with Maysama serum ! Thanks to Hot and Flashy and Pampered Wolf !
This was the best thing I've watched in a long time. Thank you!
Gemma, you got me started on LED red light therapy and Maysama. Thank you for continuing to educate us on these skincare aides.
Thanks soooooo much for this information. It’s been wicked helpful. There is so much conflicting and contradicting information and it’s very confusing.
Especially when it comes to if we should use a serum before red light or after. The mask I have a home says not to use anything until afterwards. Then I have a red light wand from a different company and they say to use a serum ( theirs or course) before using. In fact, it actually won’t turn on unless you use a serum or something to moisturize your skin.
Question: I do Finnish sauna every day (not infrared, just traditional dry sauna). What should I think of regarding the timing of the Red Light Therapy? As of now, I do sauna at lunch and LED in the evening to be safe, but I would prefer doing LED in the morning if it is not affected by my sauna a few hours later. Thanks!
This is one of the best, if not he best, skin videos I've watched. It went through every question that has occurred to me about red light (I'm a new but avid user). Thank you, truly, thank you!!
This is the best video I’ve ever watched and the most knowledge I’ve learned from anyone. I think I need to watch it again to soak in all that knowledge in!
This was very informative, thank you Bev and Gemma.
So interesting and informative. Thank you Bev for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.....and to you Gemma for having Bev on here, what a fab idea! Well done both.....hope you enjoyed your lunch 😊
Thank you so much! 💚
Very good video!!!!! Thank you. I always miss the questions in the Community Tab - need to remember to check those.
Questions for Bev: 1. Do some people just not respond to red light therapy, and do we know why this might be? (I used the currentbody hand perfector unit for more than 6 months, as directed, with Maysama serum, and there was no visible change in my skin. In fact, my hand skin looks better since stopping!).
2. Is there a risk of fat loss from red light therapy?
Thanks 😊
I've read that red light therapy is used for fat loss, Google it, and there is a risk of losing fat in the face although I don't know if this is true. I probably only use 3 times a week for shorter period of time and when you're not accessing daylight. I've just bought a small once I have no idea yet if it's going to be useful, I'm hoping my eyesight will improve, but I'm still on the fence about red light therapy until I see evidence personally.
Excellent presentation, we can feel the authenticity of a practising scientist. Many thanks, Bev and Gemma.
What is the frequency of the pulsed lights? For those of us who have already invested in a red light panel, is there an external plug we could purchase that would pulse the light?
This was so informative, so helpful. Thanks for organising this Gemma 👏
Gemma….this was fantastic…thanks so much…you are a little gem..xx😊
That explains why I’m having migraines more frequently sinse starting pulse red light therapy! I thought it was supposed to be good for your eyes!
This was a huge eye opener. Thank you!!
Good for the eyes,maybe? But certainly not for the brain...
I also get migraines and wouldn't wish them on anyone.
I've reduced mine substantially, by eating protein with every meal, especially if sugary sweets or desserts are involved. Protein helps keep your blood sugar levels stable. Low blood sugar seems to trigger my migraines.
Stress tablets with multi Vitamin B complex also helps a lot with stabilizing blood sugar and reducing Cortisol (stress hormone) that may trigger migraine episodes.
Hope this helps you as well!
Best of luck to you!
Thank u Gemma. Love this lady. I want to hear her talk for days. She's wonderful. I really enjoyed this video. U knocked it out of the park. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Janie. Truly appreciated 💚
I truly enjoyed this video, absolutely have her on again. I’m very interested in hearing about the differences between the panel and the face mask.
I hope you do have Bev back! My question is: is it most effective to have the red light touching your skin?
Thank you. ❤
You mean leds? NO
Thank you for all this information. So so helpful. And I love Maysama!!
Wow ,this was a awesome video. I didnt want it to end ! Bev, you look amazing ,what is your complete skin care routine, Please share with us all.
I have recently picked up a bottle of Maysama to add to my red light therapy, thanks to your recommendation. I love the serum on its own and I’m looking forward to seeing the results of them working together.
Let me know how you get on x
I have done the same. If you are going to take the time to use red light, why not maximize the results?
Hi Tina. Thank you so much. Please do take before and afters. We’d love to see them 💚
Wow - a science and a skincare lesson all in one and how lovely is Bev. Great video Gemma. You were a great team for this video. So tempted to buy the pulsed light panel and the Rooibos. Might have to save up for it.
I’m a senior new to red light ty Very informative
I'm really interested in more studies using castor oil with LED red light masks. There is some evidence claiming castor oil increases the benefits significantly, but other experts say don't put oil on the skin prior to use. So confusing, LoL
If you put it on before, let it soak in about an hour or more
I’ve just started thinking about incorporating red light. What great information this has been. Thank you very much!
The one issue I’ve had with the Maysama serum is that it’s incredibly drying so I am very glad to know that I can use an essence or a serum to help with that.
Humectants can be drying if not followed up with emollients (directly after LED). We are launching some new formulations in Q2 and Q3 which may suit you better so please stay in touch 🙏💚
@@maysamabeauty1839 I always follow up LED with more hydration steps but was afraid to layer anything else with the rooibos serum prior to treatment, since most instructions say not to apply skincare. Now I will try to incorporate a mist or a serum to help with that temporary tight feeling. Thanks for the reply!
Thank you Gemma for this very informative video. All my questions were answered. Wish you the best ❤
Great explanation! Red like does treat the surface of the skin, we need the infrared with the read light.
Love all the biology explanations of the processes going on! Great questions and answers! Thank you!! ❤
This was the best and most informative video I have ever seen regarding RLT. You have answered so many of our questions, much appreciated I will be sharing with my sister and friends Thank you. I have the Omnilux mask for more than 3 years and at 66 yrs of age I have never seen my skin look so good . Have a wonder lunch ladies and look forward to seeing Bev again on your channel.👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼✌🏽
How often do you use it and how long 10 minutes?
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone. This has been immensely helpful. ❤
So great!!! Yes, please bring her back!! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this informative video! I just purchased a red light therapy mask and the Maysama Rooibos Serum. You answered my concerns regarding Tretinoin use. I am now comfortable using red light in the morning and still using the Tretinoin at bedtime.
I use a 4 different light therapy wand and I seen and felt with my hands a difference right away. The light therapy helped my serum get into my skin. The results are amazing. Be careful with your eyes.
just got my pulsed light Maysama mask with the serum. Can’t wait for your review on that. Thanks. Very informative!!
Excellent, brilliant guest Gemma. Thanks Bev for sharing your knowledge. I’m now off to check out your website and hopefully make a purchase. 🙏🏻
YOUR PEOPLE- HELPING - PEOPLE IS “PROPHETIC”
Thank you so much. Bev is a wonderful source of real sience information.
Excellent video! Thank you both for your detailed info and overall clear wisdom on this topic. Plus, you both have such beautiful skin! 🙏
I'm South African, living in China at the moment and I am drinking my South
African Rooibos tea every day. (Rooibos is indigenous to South Africa. It's good for health and for skincare). Never heard about Maysma, but must be good if it has Rooibos as an ingredient.. I also started red light mask therapy about two weeks ago, I already love it!
Brilliant video…so much valuable information thank you so much ❤
Thank you so much for this incredibly informative video, Gemma! I just have to share my personal experience with red light therapy-it's been a game-changer for my skin health. After doing a ton of research, I decided to go with a panel from Future Form Official, a fantastic company based in Norway. Not only did their products come highly recommended, but they were also very reasonably priced. After a couple of months of consistent use, I've noticed significant improvements in my skin's texture and overall complexion. Absolutely thrilled with the results! Just wanted to throw that out there for anyone considering it-definitely worth the investment. Thank you again, Gemma, for always bringing such helpful content to the table!
This was by far the most informative information I've heard about red light therapy. Thank you!! 💖💖💖
I use Red light LED therapy mask because I don’t want to use more invasive procedures (I tried Botox once but I didn’t like my constant ‘surprised’ look) I’m not young (nearly 70) but I’m told I don’t look it - so my red light & skin cleansing will do for me plus good sleep!😂❤️
