I've owned the CurrentBody Skin mask for more than three years, and tested every major rival since. It's still in my top three — but I'm going to be straight with you about its limits too.
Still a top-three mask, with one honest gripe
CurrentBody is a brand I rate, and this mask earned its reputation. What bothers me is the marketing: claims like "31% more powerful than other masks" or "the most powerful anti-ageing LED mask in the world" simply aren't true any more — newer devices have moved past it. That doesn't make it a bad product; it's still a mask I recommend. I just don't like overselling.
How to use it
Cleanse first, position the mask evenly, and wear it 3–5 times a week for 10–30 minutes — one session a day is plenty. Then carry on with your serum and moisturiser. Consistency is the whole game; used occasionally, you won't see much. For comparison, a more powerful mask like the Nooance Professional can need only ~30 minutes once a week for similar or faster results (at a higher price). To clean, wipe the clear LED side with a damp, lint-free cloth; stubborn marks lift with 70% alcohol.
The pros
Like any quality LED mask used 3–5x a week for a month or more, it delivers: smoother-looking lines, a brighter, firmer complexion. And crucially, it's the lowest price among the masks I actually recommend — for me, that value is its main argument, because on performance it's broadly similar to the other good masks (and in a different league from the ones I don't recommend).
The cons — because every review needs them
The honest drawbacks: the eye and mouth areas are less covered than on some rivals; the strap tends to slip (I tuck it under a low bun to hold it); the nose bridge can feel awkward, where Nooance or the newer CurrentBody Series 2 are more comfortable; and it's less powerful than the current top devices.
CurrentBody sells direct and discounts often — worth timing if you're not in a hurry.
Verdict
This review covers the original Series 1. If you can find it cheaply it still does the job, but CurrentBody has since released the Series 2, with a custom mould that fixes the slipping strap and the nose-bridge discomfort — so unless the Series 1 is heavily discounted, the Series 2 is the one to look at. If you want more output and a comfier fit overall, Nooance is the step up — the trade-offs are in Nooance vs CurrentBody Series 2. And for CurrentBody's pro-grade panel, see the Dermalux Flex MD review.

FAQ
Is the CurrentBody Skin LED mask worth it?
Yes, with caveats. It's a proven, comfortable mask and, among the ones I recommend, the most affordable — still in my top three after three years. Just don't expect it to be the most powerful any more.
How often should you use the CurrentBody mask?
Three to five times a week, 10 to 30 minutes per session, for at least a month before judging results. Once a day is plenty — twice won't speed things up.
CurrentBody or Nooance?
CurrentBody if budget is the priority; Nooance if you want higher output and a more comfortable fit and can spend more. See the full head-to-head for the nuance.
