Tanda Light-Optimized Anti-Aging Serum
The Tanda Light-Optimized Anti-Aging Serum was originally intended exclusively for use with Tanda Light Therapies, at-home blue- and red-light therapies to treat everything from acne to wrinkles and skin discoloration.
However, the serum quickly became so popular even among people who prefer not to use the light therapy itself because the botanically based serum uses a variety of naturally derived plant extracts to tone skin, even out color and improve the texture of the face and neck by decreasing the depth and visibility of fine lines and wrinkles. This particular serum does not reflect light, so it is perfect for use with light therapy, and it is also fragrance-free and hypoallergenic.
This Tanda serum should be applied in a small amounts to clean skin before beginning light therapy or, if you are not using light therapy, in the morning and before bed. Make sure it absorbs completely before using additional treatments or applying makeup.

Drawbacks:
While Tanda itself has an excellent reputation and is enjoying a great deal of buzz due to the cutting-edge nature of its light therapies, this serum has some drawbacks you need to consider before you invest.
- The serum is designed to be used in conjunction with a 300 to 400 dollar therapy system. To get the best results, you need the total package.
- Some herbalists recommend avoiding Michelia alba leaf (Magnolia leaf) oil during pregnancy. This is one of the ingredients in the serum.
- This serum is more of a preventative treatment than a restorative one when used on its own.
Benefits:
There are a lot of reasons that you might enjoy and benefit from using this product. Here are a few reasons that the Tanda Light-Optimized Anti-Aging Serum is popular.
- It smells fantastic naturally, but is not artificially scented.
- The serum goes on light and smooth.
- It is not greasy.
- It is hypoallergenic and non-irritating.
Price:
$75.00
Guarantee
- Tanda does not offer an official guarantee on its Anti-Aging Serum when it is used independently of the light therapy. However, most vendors do offer some type of satisfaction-guaranteed return policy, or a limited-time no-questions asked return policy. Contact your vendor for details.
My Review
While the notion of getting the benefits of light-therapy related treatments without the hassle of light therapy are appealing, I think it’s pretty unlikely that there is much to this particular serum if you use it without the rest of the Tanda system. When I investigated the ingredients, most of the “scientific sounding” names on the list turned out to be natural fragrances rather than particularly healing or productive herbal or botanical items, and many of them like “impetiginosa bark” and “michelia leaf” are actually extremely common compounds made of almond oil and magnolia leaf.
Almond oil is quite potentially good for the skin, but it’s not groundbreaking as the advertising would have you believe, and magnolia leaf extract is most commonly found as a “bridge” scent in perfumes and has little use in an anti-aging treatment at all. Overall, if you like Tanda products already or you want to give this entire system a try, then this anti-aging serum is probably a good buy. However, used without the rest of the system, it is nearly impossible to say whether you will get visible results or not. It seems far more likely that this would make an excellent high-end, preventative treatment, but it appears to offer little in the way of repairs.
