the Mirror beauty team get asked about more than anything else, it's probably LED masks. Once an advanced technology you'd only find in the salon, nowadays there are lots of

at-home devices on the market, promising brighter, clearer, younger-looking skin. We've tested out lots of the best LED masks over the years – including the one used on the stars ahead

of this year's Academy Awards – but the major downside is that they don't come cheap; most start from about £300 in price, and can go up to over £2,000. However, a new one recently

launched, and it may just be one of the most affordable options yet. The world's most searched lash serum brand UKLASH – makers of the popular Eyelash Serum, which sells one every 10

seconds – has launched its UKSKIN LED Dual Light Pro-Therapy Face Mask in March to a waitlist of over 1,000 people. Priced at £199, it's certainly not cheap – but it is cheaper than

most others, and has impressive before-and-after results. READ MORE: THIS LED MASK WAS THE SECRET BEHIND OSCAR WINNERS MIKEY MADISON AND ZOE SALDANA'S RED CARPET GLOW READ MORE: ‘I

STOPPED A WOMAN BECAUSE HER SKIN LOOKED SO GOOD – IT WAS DOWN TO THIS FOUNDATION’ This UKSKIN LED mask is a flexible silicone design that features 112 professional-grade LED lights that

deliver red light at 630nm and also near infrared light at 830nm. In UKLASH's tests, 96% of participants reported visibly reduced fine lines, and 95% saw a brighter-looking complexion.

Other features include an auto shut-off after 10 minutes, a drawstring travel pouch, and protective eye guards. I was one of the first people to get my hands on one, and have been testing it

out ahead of its launch, and here are my honest thoughts... UKLASH LED MASK REVIEW I'm often hesitant to recommend LED masks to people because, although experts agree that they are

beneficial, they are expensive, so I was excited to try out this new UKLASH UKSKIN mask ahead of its launch. First impressions were great: I liked this flexible silicone style, which rolls

up neatly for storage and travel, and the colour is cute. I was also impressed with how many accessories it comes with in the box: travel bag, eye protectors, charging cable and four

different plug sockets (lots only provide the cable nowadays). The first ever LED mask I ever tried was a similar design to this and, to be honest, I didn't fit that it fitted very well

around my head – the strap seemed to fall in an awkward place, and it often slipped down. This one, however, fits really well; the strap falls slightly lower on the back of my head, which

makes the lower part sit a little away from the skin, but it's very comfy and feels very secure. The good fit is also helped by the silicone eye guards that can be fitted in to the

mask. These are optional to use (the LED light won't isn't dangerous to your eyes) but I think they're a huge plus. One problem I found from my old LED mask was that the red

light would make it hard to watch TV, read or scroll through my phone when the mask was on, but these rings really help to stop that (CurrentBody's new model also features these). The

fit and the fact that it's cordless means that it's easy to use while watching TV or pottering about the home. Its results are a little harder to pin down as, as I say to everyone

who asks, you really need to use an LED mask most days and for at least a few months to notice a difference, but after using this UKLASH one almost every night for about a month, I can see

that my skin looks brighter, healthier and calmer, with redness reduced and breakouts less angry-looking. It's subtle, and other factors come certainly come into play, but I can see a

difference. (If it's spots and acne that you're really looking to target, however, then look for device that emits blue LED light; I've been liking the Lustre ClearSkin SOLO

stick-on LED tool, currently down from £63 to £50.40). UKLASH UKSKIN LED Dual Light Pro-Therapy Face Mask £199 UKLASH Buy here UKLASH has introduced an LED mask that has 96% of participants

reporting visibly reduced fine lines, and 95% seeing a brighter-looking complexion. Another colleague has also tried this out, and is impressed. "After using this for a couple of

months, I feel like my skin is thriving," she reports. "It’s helping me tackle a dry, flaky complexion left over from winter. It works wonders when teamed with hydrating skincare

and I’m definitely noticing more of a healthy glow. Some LED masks are quite bulky, so I love how the flat design can be easily slipped into a drawer when not in use – I’m even thinking of

popping it in my suitcase this summer." UKLASH's own before-and-after results from testers are also very impressive, with a visible difference in redness and pigmentation, and

shoppers reporting "fine lines have definitely softened, and skin looks brighter and more even". My one minor criticism is that, if you have a very large head, you might find the

strap too small, as it doesn't have a lot of leeway with its length. It also doesn't have additional features like, for example, the Shark CryoGlow, which is our head of shopping

Zoe's favourite. Article continues below If, however, you've been thinking about splashing out on an LED mask and are looking for the best value one that still delivers results, I

think this is the perfect choice. I'd say it's very similar to the CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Face Mask Series 1 but is £100 cheaper and, I think, fits better (the CurrentBody

Series 2 is a much better fit than its earlier model). JOIN OUR SHOPPING & DEALS WHATSAPP FOR THE BEST BARGAINS AND FASHION NEWS WHATSAPP: GET THE BEST DEALS AND EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT CODES
