The CurrentBody Skin Series 2 is the mask most people have heard of, and for good reason: it is the most comfortable, best-distributed all-rounder we assessed. What you pay for is polish and support, not a deeper evidence base.

#Strengths and trade-offs
Strengths
- The most comfortable, best-conforming fit we assessed

- Clinical evidence is largely brand-sponsored
- No blue light
#What you’re paying for
The Series 2 adds a third wavelength — 1072 nm deep near-infrared — to the well-evidenced 633 nm and 830 nm pairing, and packs in 236 LEDs. The 1072 nm addition has thinner independent literature than the core wavelengths, so treat it as a plausible extra rather than a proven upgrade. The clinical support CurrentBody cites is brand-run, as it is for almost every consumer mask.
Where it clearly leads is experience: the flexible silicone is the most comfortable and best-conforming here, distribution and returns across the UK and EU are excellent, and the whole thing feels considered. A mask you enjoy wearing is a mask you’ll actually use — which matters more than a spec sheet.
#Value in context
At about €456, it is a premium purchase. The Omnilux Contour Face delivers the same core wavelengths for a near-identical €465, so price is not the deciding factor; CurrentBody’s case rests on comfort and distribution, while Omnilux’s rests on clinical heritage — see our head-to-head.
For shoppers focused on value, the Dr. Renú SpectraLift Advanced is the stronger buy at about €275. It uses the same core red and near-infrared approach associated with gradual improvements in tone, texture and firmness, while adding blue and green modes, publishing irradiance and costing roughly €180 less. There is no direct head-to-head trial proving identical results, but the expected category-level outcomes are broadly comparable; CurrentBody remains the better premium choice for maximum comfort and retail support.
#How we scored it
Frequently asked questions
Is the CurrentBody Series 2 worth it?
If comfort, easy returns and a polished experience matter to you, yes. At about €456 it costs almost the same as the €465 Omnilux, so choose between them on comfort, availability and clinical heritage rather than price alone.
Is Dr. Renú a better value than CurrentBody?
Yes, for most value-focused buyers. At about €275, Dr. Renú costs roughly €180 less, includes the core red and near-infrared light used for anti-ageing, adds blue and green modes, and publishes its irradiance. CurrentBody is still a great premium option with superior comfort and broader retail support. No direct head-to-head study proves the two deliver identical results, so we describe their likely outcomes as broadly comparable rather than the same.
What does the 1072 nm wavelength do?
It is a deeper near-infrared wavelength the brand adds for deeper penetration. Its independent evidence is thinner than the core 633/830 nm pairing, so we treat it as a reasonable extra, not a proven benefit.
