If you are a fashion fan or have watched Emily in Paris, you might remember this scary-looking, glowing face mask that Lily Collins wore in the latest season.

The CurrentBody LED mask has since gained a cult following and many celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Halle Barry have been known to opt for this face tool for red carpet moments.

Retailed at £299, the beauty tool claims to boost collagen levels, improve skin tone, texture and firmness after four weeks of continuous use. While each treatment takes only 10 minutes, the face-hugging silicone mask is embedded with 132 LED light bulbs that emits red and near-infrared wavelengths.

Inside the box, there is a power bank that can double as a remote controller, two eye comfort goggles, a USB charging cable, a velcro strap for securing the mask on the head, a travel pouch and the LED mask.

There's almost no set-up required because to use the mask, you just have to plug the power bank into the mask and put it on your face, secure with the velcro strap and press the power button.

The attached booklet mentions that the mask can be used on just a clean face on its own, or with serums applied to enhance results.

On my first trial, I put a vitamin C sheet mask under the LED mask. It's definitely not the best idea to stare at the glaring lights but I did when I was adjusting the strap and securing it on my head.

The "comfort goggles" did not fit me and it was pressing on my skin, leaving a red mark around my eyes. As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, my partner had a jump scare.

He was puzzled and laughed: "This is so scary. What is this, a Darth Vader mask? What's with the nose flaps?"

You might think "what can you do when you have a glowing mask on your face?" - well, thanks for the portable power bank, I didn't have to stay near any socket. I could watch a movie, use my computer and even take a sip of wine (yes, the slot is big enough to fit a wine glass).

The LED mask automatically turned off after 10 minutes and I quickly peeled off the sheet mask to see if there were any instant results.

Did my skin get brighter? Yes, the LED mask and the vitamin C-infused sheet mask lifted the dullness off my complexion and gave me a glow, particularly around my forehead and cheeks.

I followed the routine for 10 minutes a day, five days a week and did it for roughly three weeks.

The mask did a good job at brightening up my complexion and making my skin tone more even, but it didn't have a significant improvement on my enlarged pores and acne scarring.

It might take a longer period of regular use to see these results but so far, the chance of minimising the pores is minimal.

One woman who has been using it for three months, shared: "I'm not sure that I can detect any decrease in fine lines (I'm 65) but there has been a definite improvement in the appearance of my pores (especially on my nose)."

A second added: "I haven't noticed any difference in my fine lines on the forehead, but my skin has definitely become tighter.

"My closest friends have noticed that too, it genuinely makes me feel like this has been a good investment."

CurrentBody's LED mask is retailed at £299 and the site is offering Black Friday discounts on some of the bundles including the LED mask.

The limited edition LED beauty gift set, which has an anti-ageing silver LED mask, a green tea serum and a makeup bag, has been reduced from £359 to £322.

If you are looking for an instant lift and firmness, the Panasonic Eh-XR10 RF device that I've tested delivered an excellent job after one single use.

For a multi-purpose cleansing and "infuse" device, PMD Beauty's Clean Pro can massage skincare products into skin using SonicGlow technology.
