One thing about Victoria Beckham is that she can make anything, and we mean anything, look chic. Even while sporting a bathrobe with her face entirely concealed by a skincare device in the form of a massive LED mask, the ex-Spice Girl remains glamorous as ever.
The wife of former footballer David Beckham has been known as a fashion guru for many years now, but it’s only been in recent times that her brand has ventured into the skincare and beauty space, and so when she shared the photo of her partaking in the slightly scary-looking LED therapy, it sparked quite the reaction and intrigue.

The medical and cosmetic doctor continued: “LED masks work by emitting wavelengths that target various skin concerns, penetrating the skin at a cellular level. Each colour of light penetrates the skin at a different level, triggering specific responses.”
