Sticky and heavy under LED masks

What the gurus are saying

This serum earns consistent praise for boosting LED red light therapy results, with multiple gurus crediting it for amplifying the benefits of their light sessions. However, it landed heavily with one reviewer, who found it too sticky and occlusive to wear comfortably under an LED mask, especially in warmer months. Best suited for those already committed to LED therapy who don't mind a richer texture.

"I never use my red light without my Maysama serum. This is their green Rooibos serum. It's been shown that using the green tea serum and LED red light and near infrared light will actually boost the results that you get, the collagen and elastin anti-aging results that you get. So if you're going to purchase Maysama, these actually come in a bundle. I would go ahead and get both of these together."

"I put on a couple pumps of the Maysama Green Rooibos Pressed Serum. I know a lot of you who use LED red light therapy love the serum as I do for boosting the effects of your LED red light therapy session. This has clinical evidence that shows it increases the benefits of LED red light by I can't remember if it's two or three times. Green Rooibos tea can boost our LED red light therapy benefits. In the evening I'll use the serum if I'm doing LED red light in the morning."

"As always my Maysama Green Rooibos tea serum I use before all of my LED red light therapy treatments. If you open it up it comes in this little sealed pouch inside you can recycle the glass and you can also sniff this open and scoop out the last little bits."

"The Myama green press serum that they recommended to use with the LED mask, because the antioxidant effect of the serum would enhance the effect of the light, I tried that but I found it a little sticky and heavy to wear underneath the mask, especially in summer, and apparently I wasn't the only one."

"I love the serum, I really do. It has a very similar scent to the atomizer, very fresh, it doesn't have any added fragrance, no essential oils. I think this is lovely if you are drier or if you like that type of serum texture. Because it is a little bit thicker, you want to use this as your last serum in your skincare routine before your moisturizer and your sunscreen. Use it after any water-based products like essences, toners, hyaluronic acids, vitamin C's, just for proper layering. Of course you can use this before your LED light therapy treatments as well."

"I'm going to be putting on the Maysama pressed serum and this is their antioxidant serum that works really well with LED light therapy devices. I just started using this back in November and I'm really impressed with it. It's very hydrating as well and so I do like to use this before I go in with my LED."

"I pair my LED with Maysama's Green Rooibos Pressed Serum, and I have done this for years. [...] Red and near infrared light drive a lot of cellular activity, including a burst of free radicals as a byproduct, and this serum helps to manage that. There is also research showing that the Green Rooibos and LED actually make each other work better, the serum helps the light be more effective and the light helps the serum absorb faster, so the results are up to 260% better. That is why I have been using this for years, and I use nothing else."

"It is definitely one of my, if not the most repurchased products in my routine. It's also by Maysama, it's the Green Rooibos Pressed Serum. Now you all know I LED every single day, and I only LED with this product. Not only does the green rooibos protect the skin, but research shows that it supercharges the LED sessions by more than 250%. So I just never LED without it. I've used this product for so long, but I'm now making the switch to their new lighter version. So when my last bottle empties, I'm going over to that and that's what I'm going to repurchase. By the way, I buy them in a three-pack because I always want to make sure I have backups."

"I use it every day. I use it with my LED which I do most days. It's a powerful antioxidant serum. You can use it as a part of your routine or I use it on the run up to doing my LED for face, neck and stuff. Fabulous."

😇 YOUR Favorite Beauty Products of 2023

"This is the Green Rooibos Pressed Serum. I use this pretty much every day because I use this in conjunction with my LED light therapy. This is a great antioxidant serum that can be used at any point in your skincare routine morning and night, but I use this specifically when I do my LED light therapy because studies have shown that this increases the efficacy of LED by more than 200%, which is bonkers. I apply this 20 minutes before a session and that is going to protect my skin and it's going to enhance the outcomes of the session. I tend to buy these in a three-pack and I always have them here."

This antioxidant serum is what I use every single day with my LED light therapy, and that's because research shows it boosts the effectiveness of the red light sessions by more than 200%.

"I started using this specifically with red light therapy because the research showed incredible results when the two were combined together. Adding the serum boosts the results of the red light therapy by more than 250%. I use three pumps of this for my face, neck, and chest. I wait 20 minutes and then I sit in front of the panel with my top off and that's all it takes is 3 minutes and I'm done. I buy a three pack of these from the website and I think they last probably seven or eight months."
