A wake-up light includes a shade, a housing, a power driver, a controller, a light source, and a timer. The power driver, the light source, the controller, and the timer are installed in a space enclosed by the shade and the housing; the power driver is externally connected to an alternating current, and supplies power to the timer and the light source; the timer is configured for real-time timing; the controller is connected to the light source and the timer; the controller receives timing information of the timer; when a first time set by a user is reached, the controller sends a light-source light-up signal to the light source so that a light intensity of the light source is gradually increased; and when a second time set by the user is reached, the controller sends an impulsive light signal to the light source so that the light source uninterruptedly emits impulsive light.
