Complete Mask Guide — All Modes Explained
This article covers every mode available in the Artemis iMask app. For the full visual guide — including screenshots,
diagrams, app walkthroughs, and the Artemis Ritual Builder (a personalized tool that shows you exactly which colors to

The Ritual Builder is particularly useful if you're not sure which colors or modes are right for your skin — it walks
you through your concerns and builds a personalized routine for you, and helps you stay accountable to it over time.
Care Mode
Care Mode is the main mode most users will work in day to day. It has three sub-modes:
Normal Mode The simplest option — applies one color to your entire face for the full session duration. Great for
beginners or those with a single focused concern. Can also be used without the app using short taps on the mask.
Auto Mode Runs a preset treatment program that cycles through multiple colors based on a specific skin goal (anti-aging,
acne, brightening, smoothing, and more). Colors will change during the session — this is intentional. Can also be used
without the app using long taps on the mask. See the Auto Mode Guide for a full breakdown of each preset.
Weather / Recommend Mode Reads your local weather conditions and recommends the most suitable treatment for that day.
Different seasons and environments affect the skin differently, and this mode adapts accordingly. Requires location
permissions to be enabled on your phone.
Expert Mode
Expert Mode gives you full control over your treatment and is ideal for those with more experience or for professional
use on clients. There are two ways to use it:
Diagnosis Mode Lets you adjust treatment based on specific skin needs using a slider. Best for those who already have a
good understanding of their own (or their client's) skin concerns.
Manual Mode Allows you to assign different colors to individual zones of the face. The mask covers 16 facial areas in
total. To use it, select a color, then tap the zone on the face map where you want to apply it. Repeat until all areas
are filled with your chosen colors, then set your intensity and time.
This is the most powerful mode for targeted, customized treatment — especially for estheticians treating clients with
multiple concerns.
Saving Programs
To save time in future sessions, you can save your favorite settings as Programs (labeled "PGM" on the home screen). The
app supports up to 5 saved programs, which can be overwritten at any time.
This is especially useful for professionals who treat regular clients — set up each client's ideal program once and
recall it instantly at their next appointment.
Quick Reference — Color Guide
When in doubt, use Red. Near Infrared (NIR) is always active alongside red light automatically.
| Color | Best For | |---|---| | Red + NIR | Anti-aging, fine lines, collagen, firmness | | Blue | Acne, bacteria
reduction | | Green | Dark spots, hyperpigmentation, oily skin | | Purple / Violet | Acne + anti-aging combined | |
Yellow | Redness, rosacea, skin texture | | Cyan / Sky Blue | Inflammation, swollen capillaries |
Usage Recommendations at a Glance
Home users: Start with 10-minute sessions at intensity level 7, 3–5 times per week for 2 weeks. Assess your skin and
adjust from there. Do not exceed 30 minutes per day.
Professional / esthetician use: Use Expert Mode to tailor treatment to each client. Recommended settings are level 10
intensity for 30-minute sessions. Always sterilize the mask with the UV case between clients.
