As a beauty editor, LED face masks are the gadgets I am asked most about by curious family and friends - do they work? Which one should they buy? How often should they use it?

The combination of LED lights is chosen to encourage biochemical reactions in the cells of the skin where different colours (and so wavelengths) are selected to combat different concerns. Red light is known for calming inflammation and promoting collagen production, while blue is favoured by the acne-prone to bust blemishes.
