The Shark CryoGlow is the best red light mask we've tested — and it's currently on sale
Save $39.99: Grab the Shark CryoGlow LED mask and charging stand bundle for $399.99 on Shark's website. Typically, the bundle will run you $439.98, saving you 9% on the total price.
Red light therapy devices can range anywhere from about $100 to over $500, which doesn't make it the easiest shopping experience.
That's why the Mashable shopping team has been hard at work testing favorites, from brands like Solawave, Currentbody, and of course, Shark. After 10 months of testing, Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart names Shark's CryoGlow LED mask as the best she's tried — and as of April 6, it's on sale, along with a charging stand, for $399.99. Typically, the bundle runs you $439.98, saving you $39.99 overall.
While $399.99 is still an investment, it's just slightly more expensive than the Solawave and Omnilux red light masks at full price, and cheaper than the Currentbody and TheraFace masks. Plus, you get a charging stand (without the bundle, the Shark mask just comes with a storage bag).
The Shark CryoGlow mask is also much more versatile than much of its competition. Every single bulb in the mask can emit red, blue, and infrared light, making it great for anti-aging, fine lines, maintenance, and acne. While red light on its own can provide some support for breakouts, the blue light integration really makes the Shark mask stand out — especially considering its price compared to other masks that don't offer that feature (like the Currrentbody mask).
The hard shell of this mask does make it harder to store (and much harder to travel with), but it does mold to different face shapes well. The other major point that might lead someone away from the Shark is that there's no light treatment for the under eyes — instead the brand opted for under eye chill pads, which feel amazing, but won't do much for fine lines.
Overall, we still consider it one of the best value and most versatile masks at full price, making it especially worth grabbing on sale if you've been in the market for light therapy mask.
