Exodus Red Light+ Face Mask

The dog is at the door. The phone already shows three notifications. In forty minutes you have a call you cannot move.

You used to have something that was yours before the day became everyone else's. Somewhere it got crowded out.

Your face is washed and dry, with nothing on it. The controller was charged last night and shows three solid bars. You connect the mask, hold the power button, and the display wakes in red. One press of M, then NIR. You set five minutes, fit the mask and fasten the straps. With the blindfolds in, there is nothing to look at and nothing to read.

For five minutes there is no screen to check and no one asking you for anything. Then one firm click, a damp cloth over the inside, and the mask goes back in its bag. The call is still at nine. But you were here first.

The kettle is on. The dog has been out. You have maybe twenty minutes before the day asks something of you, and you have learned to take a few of them first.

You sit down, put the mask on and set the mode. The room is still. You are not scrolling, not answering, not deciding anything. You are just sitting in the light while the five minutes runs.

Then you take it off and get on with it. The 9 a.m. call, the school run, whatever is first. The five minutes happened, it was not complicated, and you will do it again on Thursday.

The Red Light+ Face Mask is an FDA-cleared light mask with 8 wavelengths, a five-minute limit and an eight-week schedule. That is what it is.

It is not a clinic and not a quick fix, and it promises no result. More is not better, so the timer does not go past five minutes. It is for adults over 18, for one person only, and it is not waterproof. The manual lists who should not use it at all, and that list is printed in full in the FAQ. If in doubt, ask a dermatologist or specialist first.

You have been burned before by things that overpromised, so you already know how to read a page like this. We wrote it for exactly that reader: the limit, the schedule and who should skip it, all before you pay. If it is still not right, you have 60 days to tell us.

Before the first email check_circleClean, dry face, mask on, timer set. The inbox can wait five minutes.

A Tuesday, a Thursday, a Saturday check_circlePick any three days that fit your week. The manual does not care which three, only that you keep them.

After the makeup comes off check_circleFace washed, fully dry, nothing on it. That is all the preparation there is.

Five minutes of nothing check_circleThe blindfolds go in and the timer runs. No screen, no scroll, no one asking you for anything.

After the school run check_circleClean your face, sit down, fasten the straps. The session is done before the next thing on the list.

His own mask check_circleThe manual says one mask per person. If he wants in, he needs his own.

One device at a time check_circleOwn a Mat too? Run them separately. The mask keeps its own five-minute limit.

The week you might skip check_circleThe schedule is already written. Three days a week. You know the day, and the bag is on the shelf.

One payment. One mask is $197, and nothing renews or is charged again. It is also sold as a 2 Pack for $324 and a 4 Pack for $499, each a single payment.

Yes. Call 972-777-5556 or email Support@ExodusStrong.com. The manual says, "We answer every message ourselves." If anything is missing or damaged, contact us before you use the device, and do not open or repair it yourself.

Yes. The Red Light+ Face Mask, model SR-M4, has FDA 510(k) clearance K243978. That is a number you can look up on the FDA website yourself. It is the white mask with the gold laurel design, for adults over 18.

1 to 5 minutes a session, set in one-minute steps, 3 days a week, for 8 weeks. Never more than 5 minutes in one session: five minutes is the dose the device was cleared at, more is not better, and the limit does not change based on how a session feels. Consistency across the eight weeks matters far more than the length of any single session.

M steps through Red1 (display Y), Blue (display B) and Red2 (display R). NIR adds near-infrared with or without another mode. If you are unsure, the manual suggests Red1 plus near-infrared: press M once so the display reads Y, then press NIR. Start at the lowest brightness in your first week.

No. Near-infrared is invisible to the human eye, so you may not see it light up. A mask running near-infrared only can look as if it is off. That is normal and does not mean the mask is faulty.

Nothing. Clean, dry, bare skin, with no makeup, no sunscreen and no heavy oils. Anything sitting on the surface is something the light has to get through first. Prep Serum and Frequency Mist+ Radiance are optional add-ons, not in the mask box. The serum goes on clean, dry skin before the session, with about sixty seconds to absorb. The mist is a pass across the face and neck afterwards.

Connect the controller to its USB cable, plug it into a wall plug and charge until you see three solid bars. Do not use the mask while it is charging. If it will not turn on, check that the cable is fully seated, charge the controller, and hold the power button for at least 2 to 3 seconds.

Yes, but run one device at a time and keep each inside its own limit. The mask is a five-minute device. Never carry the Mat's times across to it.

No. The mask is not waterproof. Never use it near water, in a bath or a pool, with wet hands, or on damp skin. After each session wipe the inside with a damp cloth, let it cool and store it in the bag. Never rinse or soak it, and use no alcohol, bleach, scented oils or dishwasher.

Do not use the mask if you use retinoids or any other medication that causes photosensitivity, are having anti-inflammatory therapy, are pregnant, are under 18, are a cancer patient or have suspicious or cancerous lesions, receive injected steroids or use topical steroids, have serious health problems, or have a heart condition or a pacemaker. Certain fragrances and essential oils may also be a reason not to use it. If in doubt, ask a dermatologist or specialist first. Do not look directly into the lights or at their reflection in a mirror. Do not use it on open wounds, or if you are allergic to silicone or ABS. Stop and speak to your doctor if itching or tingling lasts more than an hour after a session. Nothing in the manual overrides the instructions of your doctor.

There is a 60-day money-back guarantee. If the mask is not for you, contact us inside 60 days. The manual also gives a one-year limited warranty: repair or replacement, at our option, for 12 months from the date of purchase if the device is defective in workmanship or materials. The warranty does not cover batteries.
