 Good morning, I'm Mary Ellen and today I'm here to tell you about something that I purchased and I don't have discount codes I don't have a link something that I wanted and I purchased I've used the revive light therapy Red light on my lips probably for three or four years They sent me the first one and it lasted about a year And then I bought another one I bought it on Amazon because it was cheaper and I used it for several years and in March I told you it had quit working. Well, I started doing some research and I wanted to try some red light therapy And I thought I'm gonna look into those panels. I'm gonna read about a lot of different things and So I came up with something that I decided to and I'm not gonna go into detail about All the specifics because everybody needs to do their own research I just want to share with you my thoughts about it I'm a registered nurse and about it was the late 1990s early 2000 I never worked in wound care, but I know they were using LED red light therapy near infrared therapy to heal wounds I know a lot of people started using it for their skin care and general well-being I ordered it in May and I started using it May 31st Exactly eight weeks after I purchased it I took some video and I'm gonna be putting it in Comparing it to exactly eight weeks from the last skin care video. I did I'm not one that likes any type of apparatus I mean, I was lucky to do that three minutes every day with my lips But I thought I'd give this a try and I'll show you what I'm talking about It comes in a nice heavy box, which it should it has a dust bag I don't use that and then there's three different types of plug-ins that you can use like this is what we use in the United States I don't know what countries use what but there's three different types of plug-ins You you can slide them in right here and take this off and this just plugs in on a regular outlet And this is how you charge it and after it's charged you just unplug this You're never supposed to use it while it says you're not supposed to use it at all when it's plugged in I just leave this strap on it. I don't change it at all and I just put it on like this and Then you'd I take this side right here go around the back and Then just put it right here and this is what I was talking about I just hold it like that so it doesn't hurt my nose right there because it is a little it got a little bit red the first time but it's as easy as this I can talk I can walk I put that in my pocket and And that's all there is to it and this goes for exactly 10 minutes And when I'm done, I set the timer on my phone. Boy, that's different looking isn't it red light So when I'm done doing the 10 minutes, I set the timer on my phone for three minutes I turn it on and I just put my lips on there just like that So anyway, this is the Omni I think Omni Lux I think it's the same. It's the one with the red lights not with the blue lights because they use that for acne Each light has infrared and near infrared lighting in there When I got it, I took it out and I was a little bit of surprised How substantial it is? I really kind of thought it would be a lot more flimsy You don't have to be tethered to anything when you use it because this is rechargeable So you just have this device and it's 10 minutes a day And that's what I've done for eight weeks 10 minutes a day five days a week Omni Lux does not know that I exist But I will tell you there's something I wish they would have done differently, but overall. I'm very pleased on this side They have like lights right here, but over the lip there aren't any LEDs and most of us I'm going to be 69 in a couple of months and most of us we really want to Treat the area around our lips and it's really helped a lot What I can see and I don't know if you'll be able to see this or not. I have on no makeup today I have on mascara navy eyeliner and raspberry Lipstick I did put my finger in some pressed powder and put it right here in here because They my caverns are very dark and it was distracting, but I don't have anything on my face I will tell you what I've noticed the first thing I noticed was My skin Never needed to be exfoliated. You know, I do it with a washcloth every morning and water But normally I would use a couple of times a week. I would use something from the ordinary I think it was it's a glycolic acid I don't do that anymore And I haven't had to use it. It could be because the weather has been warm. I may have to resume in the winter But that's the first thing I noticed After probably five or six weeks I thought my lips looked fuller and they are fuller and the color of my lips is more vibrant Definitely adds the blood flow the redness in my skin has decreased And this cauterization mark I've had since I was three or four years old it has lightened It is so easy for me to wear this 10 minutes a day five days a week And I do it Monday through Friday and I'm going to continue doing it 10 minutes a day Five days a week and just see and I'll look in another Four to six more weeks. Maybe after maybe after 16 weeks. I will do this again and see I tell you what I'm kind of disappointed in. I really thought this might plump out a little bit, but we'll see That's what I'm going to do. I'm very patient. I'm very very patient But so far I've really been pleased the mask is very lightweight And I just wash it with a clean washcloth with clear water It's probably about every other day the strength. I mean, I'm really pleased with it. I'm surprised I spent $377. I used the 10 discount code And I was glad to get 10 off, but it's worth it to me. I'm not I'm not don't ever want to have anything done to my face I want whatever is done To do it here, you know to use the mask and just to see because I can help other people by seeing how it works on somebody that has Truly aging skin One thing I had to kind of oh, there was a lot of research I did Some places I'd go and it would say, oh, don't you don't oh if you use retinols If you use retin A, you know, you shouldn't use this and then I'd read someplace else and they'd say that you could You know anytime like photo sensitivity that you may react to that if you're on Some medication that causes that I'm not going to get into medicine. Believe me, but what I do I usually do it in the afternoon. I cleanse my face. Well, that's when I wash with my purity made simple and If if I needed exfoliation, I would definitely exfoliate But I don't use the mask they recommend they met recommend putting a mask I don't like masks. I don't like face masks I don't like anything that you have to leave on your skin for a while and also vitamins and I didn't I didn't order those I wanted to see what this mask could do on its own if you were faithful in using it And how it would work on older skin. I charge this one time a week It's never not worked for me, but every Friday when I'm done using it I charge it and and I put it next to my chair is where I have it and it So I don't become a slacker and not do it I had to do it in an area that I would remember to do it I don't use any of the I can't use any of the Electrical stimulation devices on my skin because I have atrial fibrillation And it it causes can cause problems and my electrophysiologist told me not to use it I tried the myotone Years ago, and I really got some good results on my forehead, but I won't do anything that is jeopardizes my health in any way And what it's thought to do basically is stimulate the cells the powerhouse of the cell is our mitochondria And that promotes college and production and you know all the things we need to have Healthier plumper skin. I do think my skin looks plumper. I do think it looks but I don't know But I haven't put those photos side by side. So we'll probably be able to see What it looks like. I have three screenshots to compare the one on your right is more vibrant than the one on your left I have no special lighting And this was just the best I can do so I'm going to go ahead and give you what my observations are And then at the end I'll tell you what gyms were Uh according to this first one the cutterization scar. It's beneath my left eye, but it's the right eye on here It's definitely lighter. I don't have any other. I don't have brown spots So I don't know if this is going to help that or not, but it did help that area right there And my lips are plumper in both videos I was wearing the same lip gloss that it looks like it's kind of warm worn out more on the right On the next photo I can tell by looking in my lighted mirror that my skin is definitely more even tone I still have a little bit of red, but I do think that is better And on the full face again, I can still see my lips are fuller And there and I can't see any difference at all in the marionette lines or the nasal labial folds In fact, I think they look better in my before picture, which is on your right And according to these screenshots, I don't see any more plumpness Jim that likes the photo on the right the one that is my before better than the one on the left He thinks I look younger and my skin looks better, but anyway, I just thought I'd share that with you And I will continue and I'll do this again after 16 weeks and there's all sorts of different LED red light, infrared light, there's blue light, there's all sorts of Lights that are specific for different things. I do know in wound healing the red light and the infrared light Now this is back in the day They said it reduced scarring which would make sense because of the the way it stimulates rejuvenation So that's that's what it's intended for so I just thought I'd share this with you and let you know What I thought and tell you that if you're still here, I want to do a giveaway Yes, I do and what I want to do is I want to give away three $75 either e-gift cards to anywhere that I can buy them Or a $75 deposit in your PayPal account And since this is a giveaway, I can't answer questions But I will be glad if you go to any video that I have even if it says I can't Go to any video that I have and ask me a question and it always comes up So I can always get back to you and we sometimes can have some good conversations To be entered in the giveaway All you have to be is 18 years old or older And in the comment section below If you're interested in the giveaway Let me think what I want you to say just work use the word clock C.
