Christmas beauty gift set gets you a £145 eye cream for £60 plus 9 free products
This takes at-home skincare to the next level with professional-grade light therapy wrapped up in sleek, flexible silicone. Featuring 600 LED points across eight wavelengths, including red and near-infrared, it works to boost collagen, smooth fine lines and even out skin tone, all while fitting comfortably to the contours of your face.
Completely wireless and USB-rechargeable, the mask can be used on its own or synced with the FOREO app for custom routines. Slip it on for a few minutes while you unwind and let the light do the work.
Head of beauty Zoe says: “After just a few uses of the mask, I can see why it’s gained such a loyal following already. The flexible silicone design feels surprisingly comfortable, and the wireless setup makes it easy to slip into my routine, since I can wear it while answering emails or watching TV. Though I’ve not used it for very long, my skin definitely looks brighter and smoother, which is a real win in the short term. That said, it’s a serious investment. Still, for anyone committed to long-term results and a high-tech approach to skincare, this is a luxe bit of kit that really does deliver a glow.”
Groov-e LED Light Therapy Face Mask
Shop it for £129.99
Using 102 LED lights and four colour modes, it targets common concerns like acne, redness, dullness and fine lines through non-invasive light therapy that boosts collagen and promotes brighter, smoother skin. Each light serves a specific purpose: red reduces inflammation and ageing, green evens tone, blue helps clear breakouts, and purple combines both anti-ageing and acne benefits. Simply wear the mask for 10 minutes, four to five times a week to make it part of your daily routine.
Beauty tester Adie says: “I’ve been on the lookout for a mask that doesn’t cost a small fortune, like so many of us, so I’m also delighted to report this one ticks the results box as well as the affordability one. It’s very easy to use, and I say this as someone who really only manages ‘on and off’ buttons, and easy to swap between light settings. I’ve been using the blue light on my acne breakouts this week, and the spots are definitely shrinking faster than they usually do. I think I would have preferred the mask to be more rigid in shape rather than the silicone that you hook from the back of your ears, but that’s a small personal comfort preference.”
Shark CryoGlow LED Anti-Ageing and Blemish Repair Mask Price
Shop it for £299.99
Introducing the new Shark CryoGlow mask, a true all-rounder. This LED mask is designed for under-eye care and goes above and beyond with blue light therapy to zap blemishes and reduce puffiness. It’s ideal if you’re dealing with stubborn dark circles or need a quick pick-me-up after too many late nights (Netflix binge, anyone?).
Plus, its cryotherapy feature cools and soothes, leaving your skin feeling refreshed. While it’s a bit of an investment, the under-eye-specific design makes it a game-changer for tired eyes.
Head of beauty Zoe says: “I’ve tested a fair few LED masks, but I find myself mostly always reaching for this one. The cryo pads under the eyes are amazing if you’ve had a late night, and the pre-set regimes for different skin concerns mean you can just switch it on and have the mask do the thinking for you. The treatment times are short enough to be manageable for near-daily use, and I’ve really seen a decrease in the redness of my skin since adding this mask to my evening routine.”
CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Face Mask: Series 2
Shop it for £399
If it’s good enough for celebs like Kate Hudson and Suki Waterhouse, it’s good enough for us. This cult favourite CurrentBody mask has just launched as a series 2 model featuring 236 LEDs that emit the three most clinically recognised wavelengths for anti-ageing.
Beauty editor Laura says: “One of my New Year’s resolutions was to use an LED mask consistently, and I’m pleased to say I’m already sticking to it with CurrentBody’s new-and-improved design, which fits much better around the face and emits a greater range of collagen-boosting LED wavelengths.”
BeautyPro Photon LED Light Therapy Facial Mask
Shop it for £195
This clever device boasts five different light therapy modes designed to target a wide range of skin concerns. Its 432 LEDs deliver high-density, high-intensity light energy that promotes collagen production, tackles acne, refines pores, and brightens the skin.
Mirror’s senior fashion and beauty writer Bethan says: “I was really impressed with its longevity – I do find the eye shields a little uncomfortable as they leave a red mark on my nose as though I’ve been wearing glasses. Since starting using the mask in September, I’ve noticed a marked improvement in my skin texture and the frequency of my breakouts, with my skin generally feeling clearer and less clogged.”
Silk’n LED Facial Mask
Shop it for £128
The Silk’n LED Facial Mask is a true powerhouse, featuring 100 LEDs to ensure full-face coverage. This mask is all about convenience and simplicity– perfect for those who want serious results without a complicated setup. Red and infrared light work together to tackle fine lines and boost elasticity, giving your skin a smoother, plumper look. Its sleek, lightweight design makes it easy to wear while scrolling TikTok or catching up on your favourite podcast.
Senior shopping writer Faith says: “I used it every other night when I got into bed, which not only forced me to relax and unwind, making me sleep better, but made it much easier to remember to use it. The mask has four different colours of LED lights to choose between – I stuck to the amber one, which helps with redness – but you can also pick from blue, red and red with near infrared settings. I tested this out for six weeks, which was just enough time to start seeing results. This isn’t a ‘use it once and you’ll see miracles’ type of product – you need to be consistent to see any visible changes – but so far so great!”
