You’ve seen them all over your feed: those glowing, slightly terrifying LED face masks that promise clearer, firmer, glowier skin. But do they actually work? And if so, which one is worth your dollars?

In this Expert episode, we’re diving into the booming world of red light therapy and LED face masks. Skin therapist Tegan breaks down the science behind the trend, explains what each colour of light actually does (spoiler: red = collagen, blue = breakouts), and reveals her top picks—from luxe full-face masks to budget-friendly buys.

We also answer an anonymous listener’s question about skin purging vs. a bad reaction, and in Win, Bin or Recycle, we ask the important question: Is cutting your toenails on the couch ever OK?
