Hello my fellow Lovley Esties!!

  I am looking to by a woods lamp and there are many different ones out there. Trying to decide which type/style are the GOOD ones.  Some have black cape looking things attached, some don't. Anyone have any feedback for me before I make my purchase.  Please and thank you! :)

I found mine on Ebay for $25, and it does the trick.  I haven't had much experience with actually utilizing a woods lamp, aside from identifying oily areas and letting people know how much sun damage they've accumulated, but my cheapo lamp works perfectly for doing just that :)

Hi Cimberly,

A woods lamp is pretty basic technology, you can get away with a less expensive starter lamp. The key is the brightness of the lamp, quality of the magnifier and the price. There is a lot of diagnostic equipment out there, a lot of it looks cool but you may never use it. Its really important that you understand the basics of skin analysis and what to look for before you spend a lot of money on technology. No matter what manufacturers say, there is no perfect algorithm that has been created to analyze skin like we do. I have a ebay woods which works fine and a $1000 + skin scope that was a huge benefit for retail sales. Good luck and email me if you have any specific equipment you want me to look at.

Thank you for your response! :)
Thank you ladies for both of your responses. I'm just not recently getting back into it & I am a one woman show. Which pieces of equipment do you feel are absolutely necessary when running a private skin care practice?
