LX300 vs LX500: Which AWA LED Face Mask Is Right for You?
Our two LED face masks — the LX300 and the flagship LX500 — are both FDA-cleared for wrinkles and acne, so you're covered either way. The choice really comes down to how many light modes you want and how premium a fit you're after.
The short answer
- Choose the LX500 if you want the most versatility — multiple light modes (red + near-infrared for anti-aging, blue + near-infrared for breakouts) and a premium, comfortable silicone fit.
- Choose the LX300 if you want effective, FDA-cleared facial light therapy at a lower starting price.
What they share
Both masks are FDA-cleared, both target the look of fine lines, uneven tone, and breakout-prone skin, and both are hands-free — you wear them for about 10–20 minutes a few times a week while you unwind. Both are FSA & HSA eligible and backed by our 60-day money-back guarantee.
Where they differ
Light modes & wavelengths
The LX500 combines more wavelengths (630nm, 415nm, 850nm, and 1072nm) across two modes — Red + Near-Infrared and Blue + Near-Infrared — so you can switch between anti-aging and blemish-fighting routines. The LX300 focuses on the core skin-rejuvenation wavelengths in a simpler, effective package.
Fit & price
The LX500 ($239.99) uses a comfortable, flexible silicone design built for daily wear. The LX300 ($199.99) is the more accessible entry point into FDA-cleared facial light therapy.
Who picks which?
The LX500 is the favorite for: anyone who wants to address both fine lines and breakouts, and people who value the most premium, customizable experience.
The LX300 is the favorite for: first-time mask users and anyone focused on everyday skin rejuvenation at a friendlier price.
Mask or panel?
Masks are purpose-built for your face. If you also want full-body pain relief and recovery, pair a mask with a panel — see our FX300 vs FX500 guide, or take the 60-second device quiz.
