Many other masks come in at more than £300. Case in point: The Light Salon’s Advanced Light Therapy mask or the £1,680 (!) Déesse Professional LED Mask. Both great, but both expensive. The Currentbody mask costs £295, making it one of the most affordable on the market – yet one of the most powerful.
Granted, this is the first time I have used an LED face mask – but my skin has never looked better. My complexion feels clearer, brighter and plumper, and my hormonal breakouts have been minimised. It feels like a great complimentary step to everything else in my skincare routine, and it’s inability to stay put on my head won’t stop me from reaping the benefits.

Why GLAMOUR loves it: The skin on your neck is much thinner than the skin elsewhere on your body. Why? There’s not much of a support structure to keep it looking plump, gravity is not working in our favour, accumulative sun exposure can cause crepiness, and years of spraying perfume on your chest can lead to the discolouration of neck skin. Also, according to Dermalogica’s Education Manager Lesley Corridan, “it endures from facial muscle movements and expressions and from our head movements.” With that in mind, it’s no surprise that the accumulative sun exposure can cause crepiness, years of spraying perfume on your chest can lead to the discolouration of neck skin.
Ageing is beautiful, but it can be empowering to help yourself feel more confident with an extra step in your beauty routine. One of the best neck creams can help you target the effects of premature ageing, but so can CurrentBody’s LED neck mask. Here, the CurrentBody LED face mask comes with a neck mask, to use in tandem or alone, which harnesses the exact same technology.
Why GLAMOUR loves it: This is a new release from CurrentBody, and the first CurrentBody LED face mask specifically designed to help with mild acne. It uses blue light to eliminate bacteria and breakouts, and red light to calm redness and soothe irritation.
Blue light is emitted at 415nm, and red LED light at 633nm, which is a combination clinically proven to be more effective than blue light alone. 132 LED lights are spread evenly across the face (almost 50% less than the facial mapping mask mentioned below, it’s worth noting) diffused with the same patented pillow technology as CurrentBody’s other devices to ensure even distribution.
Why GLAMOUR loves it: This new release is, essentially, the OG CurrentBody LED face mask, but supercharged. It does have a slightly less-accessible price point than the original, but it’s a very comprehensive and impressive piece of kit, so probably worth the investment for some. According to CurrentBody, it’s clinically proven to increase skin clarity, luminosity and brightness, using five precise wavelengths within four targeted treatment modes.
You can choose from the zone facial mapping treatment mode, anti-ageing, brightening or restoring, but the complete zone facial mapping treatment mode is the one that really makes this mask stand out. Different mask zones target different areas of your face, through different wavelengths of light. Red, deep red and near-infrared light are emitted around the forehead, jowls and around the mouth to plump and press fine lines. Elsewhere, green and near-infrared targets the eye area to fade hyperpigmentation, dark circles and eye bags, and yellow focuses on the most spot-prone areas of the face to help reduce facial redness. Your cheeks, nose and chin, for instance.
