My partner wants to me to get her a TheraFace LED Mask as a gift and it is just a bit too expensive in my opinion at $900!
I have access to discounted gift cards but that isn't enough of a bargain for me so are there any better deals out there?

These devices have not been proven to do anything at all beyond empty wallets with their strong marketing.
The best bargain would be convincing her she doesn’t need it and getting her something else.
Gifts for females are all about emptying wallets for things that don't do anything. It's all symbolic.
Yeah, but video games on the other hand…./s
Video games are a form of entertainment and competition. They do fulfill a need.
Better deal - Change girlfriends to a less expensive version
TIL people will pay $900 for a plastic serial killer mask with a few LEDs in it.
This would be a hilarious idea for a movie. A mix of American Psycho, Zoolander and Friday the 13th. The victim knocking off his mask and revealing a Male Model.
There's a sucker born every minute!
Plenty on AliExpress for under $50 which will have the exact same effect - nothing.
Clinical studies showed firmer, smoother, healthier-looking skin with a visible reduction in fine lines and dark spots in as little as 8 weeks.*
*Results from 12-week clinical study with 31 subjects and 1x/day use of pre-programmed 9-minute treatment. Individual results may vary.
Clinical study with only 31 participants and subjective results - like how did they measure firmness, smoothness, and most importantly healthiness???
If you point that out to your partner and they still want it then that's a red flag for a terrible future when you've already got the red flag of them requesting a specific $900 gift in the first place.
Look, I know red light therapy is a bit fringy but the head massage feature does sound good.
This is probably some TikTok challenge as a relationship test to see if your a muppet who will do whatever she asks without question as her man slave. As others have said, red flag. Maybe this is a good chance to have a chat about financial expectations and reality in the relationship. If $900 presents are not reasonable for your income, sort the problem out now before it escalates.
The problem with buying cheaper masks is they skimp on the LEDs that are supposed to omit the proper wavelengths. Here is a good article https://goalstogetglowing.com/2021/01/17/led-face-mask-resea…

That's when I stopped reading. They know about as much about how light interacts with the skin as anyone else who has google.
Actually, probably less. Because I studied physics until year 12 and I can tell how laughably bullshit that article is.
what is this, looks like something from Stanley Kubrick movie. if you need different wavelength light, sunlight has wide spectrum
Get her the gift of a single life. What kind of demands are these, the bar will keep going up and before you know it, she will be asking for $8,000 hand bags.

Wife or GF? If wife, you are shit out of luck. It is more expensive to be single.
Wife or GF?
Grand Father…
First you go through all the patent if theres any, find out the LEDs wavelength. Then buy some powerful LEDs then hook it up a powersupply and PROFIT???
Looks to be available at iconic, I suppose find deals on discounted gc’s could be an angle to approach it on
