Charlize Theron's secret to youthful, plump skin is her LED mask and we are following her red light all the way to glowing skin.
Charlize Theron recently revealed that the key to her youthful glow is her LED mask, claiming that she "lives in a red light mask at all times," so naturally our interest was piqued. All we need to do is pop on a mask and we can look like Charlize? Easy!
Turns out we need to be a lot more disciplined than we thought and when Charlize said "she lives in a mask" all the time she may have not been exaggerating. To get results worthy of a Hollywood celebrity we need to be consistent and according to Elisa Osmo, the Founder of Glow Medispa, we need to treat at-home LED like a gym membership for our skin. Whilst effective, LED masks need to be used in repetition to see real results, so we need to commit to using a mask for six to eight weeks, and treat the ritual as a non-negotiable otherwise it will be difficult to get the results we are expecting and hoping for.
According to Elisa it is also very important that we understand that an LED mask isn't a miracle mask but rather a tool to be used alongside a dedicated skincare routine. We need to keep up with ensuring our skin is hydrated and is protected against the sun, so no skipping SPF. It is also important to know what our skin needs, is it collagen production or help with breakout-prone skin. Red light works to help with collagen while blue light helps with breakouts, making it crucial to choose a mask accordingly.
The Sonna LED Brightening Face Mask offers multiple settings, adapting to our skin's needs and allows us to target different skin concerns such as skin tone, dullness or dryness. With six modes to choose from including Repair, Rejuvenate, Anti-Ageing, Anti-Acne, Morning and Evening, the mask adapts to our skin with the needed light, red, infrared, blue and yellow. For great results it is recommended we use it daily, but the best part is that we only need to use it for 10 minutes.
