Shoppers who suffer from blemish-prone, problematic skin are racing to buy this high-tech LED face mask from Project E Beauty, calling it 'the best investment in self-care'.

Project E Beauty LumaLux Face Pro LED Light Therapy Mask
Ready to take your skin to the next level? Using state-of-the-art technology, this luxury LED mask boasts eight light settings that work to target blemishes, wrinkles, fine lines while boosting collagen production.
With a speedy treatment time of three minutes, the mask boasts eight times the amount of LED's than other models on the market for visible improvements with just a few uses. It's no wonder customers have said it's the best thing they've introduced into their skincare routine.
£299 Shop
While skin care, diet and lifestyle factors, of course, have a huge impact on our skin, this advanced piece of kit can take your skin to the next level, boasting eight different LED light modes that tackle the most common skincare complaints.
The mask, which is priced at £299 — making it considerably more affordable than other best-selling LED masks on the market —has been clinically proven to reduce acne lesions by 83 per cent in as little as four weeks, as well as reducing wrinkles by up to 75 per cent.
'The best investment in self-care,' wrote one customer. 'I've been using the mask for over a month now. I have problematic skin and struggled with acne for a long time. I had enlarged pores and dark spots left from breakouts. This mask has significantly improved my skin condition. Even the next day after using it, I woke up looking much more refreshed. My skin truly looked rested and radiant'.
'The LumaLux LED mask has truly changed my life,' added a second shopper. 'Having struggled with acne for years, I've finally found a solution that works. Within just a few weeks, I noticed incredible results: reduced redness, pimples disappearing quickly, and a much brighter, more even complexion. Its become an essential part of my skincare routine'.
'It feels like having a high-end spa treatment at home,' raved a third user. 'The mask is lightweight, comfortable, and fits well on my face and neck. The multi-function colour settings are easy to use, and I can already see improvement in my skin texture and tone after just a few sessions. Highly recommend!'.
So, how does it work exactly? The mask uses scientifically-proven LED wavelengths to achieve clinical-level results in sessions of just three minutes.
While most LED masks on the market only cover part of the face or treatment area, leaving much of the face uncovered, the LumaLux LED Mask fills every space for next-level results.
Backed by dermatologists and aestheticians alike, Deep Rejuvenation Mode combines the most powerful wavelengths available on the market for advanced collagen production, targeting fine lines and wrinkles.
Other settings include Blemish Control Mode, which targets spots at every stage while eliminating bacteria and soothing inflammation, and Intense Youth Boost Mode, which helps to trigger collagen and soften existing wrinkles.
Containing 800 densely-packed LED's (compared to the standard 100 fitted within standard LED masks), its easy to use and comfortable, too: simply cleanse the face with a gentle cleanser, connect the mask to the controller, and enjoy your three minute session.
Crafted from 100 per cent soft silicone, the mask is incredibly easy to incorporate into your evening routine - and actually motivates you to wind down and take a few moments to breathe before heading to bed. But do the results really justify the price? Read on for my honest thoughts.
I'm one of those poor, unfortunate souls who didn't struggle much with blemishes (other than the occasional spot) throughout my teenage years, but was hit with adult acne at the age of 23 - thanks, hormones!
I've tried almost every treatment (both at home and in-salon) to try and combat my breakouts, with few leaving lasting results - so when I read about the LumaLux LED Mask, I was intrigued. Could clearing my skin really be as simple as using this for three minutes per evening?
The box contains everything you need to work the mask, including the mask itself, a USB-C charging cable, controller, carry bag and user manual. Although at first it seemed tedious to set up, it took me less than 10 minutes to figure out how to work the mask - though you can't use it straight away, and you'll have to allow it to charge before your first use.
As the instructions described, I took off my makeup with my usual micellar water and gentle cleanser before fitting the mask and listening to rain sounds while lying in bed. The reviews are true: it really does feel like you're having your own little spa treatment, and the mask was incredibly comfortable to wear.
The mask boasts 8 light settings, all targeting different ailments, though as I'm focusing specifically on treating my acne, I went for the Blemish Control Mode, which is a blue light treatment.
Which each treatment only taking three minutes long, I feel using the mask nightly is something I can commit to - I've been hesitant to purchase other masks as they usually boast treatment times of 10 or sometimes 20 minutes, and I feel I'm far too fidgety to commit to that.
Though I didn't notice immense results straight away, my skin definitely looked somewhat inflamed after just one use, and a little less red.
After using the mask daily for four weeks, I can confidently say I've noticed a vast improvement with my skin. I usually suffer with flare-ups in between my eyebrows, and on my chin (which suggests its hormonal), though since using this, I've only suffered with the odd spot - and they disappear much more quickly.
Not only that, but my skin looks significantly less inflamed and less red, too, with a more radiant look.
So, is it worth it? In my opinion, absolutely. Compared to getting regular treatments in-salon, the mask is incredibly affordable when considered an investment into your skin, and can be used daily in the comfort of your own home with clinically-proven technology.
Though I'm yet to say goodbye to my texture and acne for good, this mask has brought me closer than I've ever been before - and I'm so excited to see my progress with continued use (it's said to use consistently for eight weeks to see significant results).

PHP defeats KKR in takeover battle for NHS landlord Assura

Primary Health Properties (PHP) has defeated a US private equity giant in the battle for control of a GP surgery owner. Shareholders backed PHP's £1.8billion takeover of Assura, despite KKR's plea last week for the board to reconsider. Investors owning nearly 63 per cent of Assura's shares had voted in favour of the merger by yesterday afternoon, making the offer 'unconditional'. The vote ends a long-running tussle to buy the NHS landlord, which owns surgeries, hospitals and hospices. Assura will delist from the stock market as soon as possible, the companies said yesterday. But the deal still faces hurdles after the competition watchdog last week stepped up its probe into the tie-up.

I was in agony with toothache for weeks and went to my dentist – then I was told it was LUNG cancer

WHEN Keshia Liburd visited the dentist with toothache she was told her teeth were in perfect condition. But when the pain became worse and prompted an X-ray, the mum-of-three received the shocking news she had stage three lung cancer. 3 3 Back in 2023, the 38-year-old from Huddersfield, West Yorks. went to two different dentists complaining of severe toothache only to be told it was nothing to worry about due to the condition of her teeth. It was only after the pain became too much that she finally visited A&E where she got an X-ray and was given morphine for the pain. After being kept in for 16 days, the former smoker was given the shocking news that she had a rare form of stage 3 'ALK positive' lung cancer. Stage 3 ALK-positive lung cancer means the cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes or chest structures and has a ALK mutation - a crucial piece of information for doctors as it guides treatment decisions. There's a variable outlook for patients with survival rates generally ranging from 13 per cent to 36 per cent for five years. Speaking over messenger due to her condition, mum of three Keshia said: "I was in agony for weeks with toothache, I went to the dentist - I paid twice for a private dentist - and I was told there was nothing wrong. "I got a pain in my chest, had an X-ray, and I was told I have pneumonia at first. Then, 16 days later was told I have cancer." Keshia underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy, as well as hammer knife surgery. After being told the cancer had gone in January 2024, the following April Keisha received the unfortunate news the cancer had come back, now stage four, and had spread to her lungs, liver, and brain. Her cousin Kirsty Watson, 44, who spoke on Keshia's behalf due to the difficulties speaking caused by her condition, said: "Physically, she's struggling to get around the house - your breathing impacts everything, whether you can get up and make a cup of tea, what kind of quality time you have with your children. A fit and active 22-year-old put back pain and persistent tiredness down to starting a new office job - but they were the first signs of a killer cancer "It's impacting everything, really. Her memory has been impacted as well, because of the brain cancer. "She's forgetting quite a lot of things, general day-to-day things, which has an impact on the children as well, as they can see that. "It's like she's deteriorated rapidly in front of her children's eyes." Now, Keshia and her family are hoping to raise £40,000 to have advanced treatment - trans-arterial chemoembolisation (TACE) and dendritic cell therapy - with the NHS telling her they'll offer no more treatment if her latest round of chemo doesn't work. According to Cancer Research UK, TACE is a form of chemotherapy injected directly in to the blood vessel which feeds a tumour to give a stronger dose of the drug, followed by a gel or tiny beads to block the blood supply. The charity says dendritic cell vaccines are used to help the immune system recognise and attack cancer cells. NHS England and the Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust have been contacted for comment. To donate to the family's GoFundMe, click here. Symptoms of lung cancer Toothache isn't a common direct symptom of lung cancer, but it can be related to the disease through referred pain. The vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to various organs including the heart and lungs, means pain originating in the chest area can be felt in the jaw and teeth. There are usually no signs or symptoms of lung cancer in the early stages. Symptoms develop as the condition progresses. The NHS says the main symptoms include: a cough that does not go away after three weeks a long-standing cough that gets worse chest infections that keep coming back coughing up blood an ache or pain when breathing or coughing persistent breathlessness persistent tiredness or lack of energy loss of appetite or unexplained weight loss Less common symptoms of lung cancer include: changes in the appearance of your fingers, such as becoming more curved or their ends becoming larger (this is known as finger clubbing) difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) or pain when swallowing wheezing a hoarse voice swelling of your face or neck persistent chest or shoulder pain If you experience any of these symptoms, see a GP. What causes lung cancer? Smoking Smoking cigarettes is the most significant risk factor, accounting for the majority of lung cancer cases. Tobacco smoke contains numerous toxic and carcinogenic (cancer-causing) substances. The more you smoke, the higher the risk. Even occasional or light smoking can increase the risk. Exposure to secondhand smoke also poses a risk. Other tobacco products like cigars and pipes also increase risk. Environmental factors Radon: This radioactive gas, often found in homes, is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Asbestos: Exposure to asbestos, a mineral fibre used in building materials, significantly increases lung cancer risk. Air pollution: Both outdoor and indoor air pollution, including particulate matter, are linked to lung cancer. Workplace hazards: Exposure to certain chemicals and substances in some workplaces, like silica and diesel exhaust, can increase the risk. Other risk factors: Age: The risk of lung cancer increases with age. Family history: Having a family history of lung cancer can increase your risk. Previous lung conditions: Certain lung conditions like COPD, pneumonia, and tuberculosis can increase susceptibility to lung cancer. Radiation therapy: Radiation therapy to the chest for other cancers can also increase the risk. 3

I stopped screen time for my three-year-old daughter & there's been three HUGE changes in her behaviour – I'm stunned

SWITCHING the TV on or giving your phone to your kid just to have 15 minutes of peace is the daily reality for many families. Whether it's social media, online games or kids' shows - it all adds up and can be very addictive. 2 2 A recent survey found the average child is spending a whopping 45 hours a week stuck indoors – with more than a third of that time staring at screens. A quarter of 2,000 parents said their kids show zero interest in outdoor activities, while indoor habits are dominated by passive pastimes like watching TV (59 per cent), gaming (54 per cent), and scrolling on phones (41 per cent). Excessive screen time, scientists warned, increases the risk of a heart attack, as well as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and insulin resistance among youngsters. But is it possible to get your little ones to spend less time in front of screens - and does it affect their behaviour? According to one mum-of-two, Kirstie Lewis, the answer is yes. Kirstie recently told TikTok users she's stopped letting her three-year-old daughter from watching TV - and there have been huge changes. ''Now, I'm really have to use my brain in terms of creating ideas on how to keep her occupied and busy,'' the mum said in the video. ''But the things I've noticed are quite severe, in a positive way.'' One of the things, for instance, is that the tot is now ''nicer'' and ''kinder'' - to the point, where Kirstie sees her daughter as 'best friend'. ''I want to be around her now - weird,'' said Kirstie who added that the relationship looked very different just two weeks ago. Lydia Bright slammed for 'parent-shaming' as she shares dangerous advice On top of this, the young girl now plays on her own way more than she used to before the screen time ban. ''She's initiating play, she'll go into her playroom, she'll be engaged for longer,'' the mum claimed, noting that in the past her daughter would ''dart from thing to thing''. ''Now, she will stick to a game for a long time. I can walk away and I can have my shower and stuff. ''I still go downstairs thinking 'No, has she pi**ed up the walls?' - no, she's still there drawing or playing. ''This is huge,'' said Kirstie who regularly shares parenting-related content on page, @ kirstielewismumma. According to the mother, the no screen time rule has also bonded the little girl with her sister more - and she'll be interacting with her sibling way more. ''It's so cute. And these are huge things. ''Don't get me wrong, we didn't have tonnes and tonnes of screen time in this house, she doesn't have a tablet, she doesn't have access to our phone.'' How long should kids be on screens? Dr Amanda, who's a parenting expert and child psychologist gave a general guide for parents who wish to limit screen time. Age 1-3 years old How long: 5 minutes per year of life in one sitting Dr Gummer says: "If you are really hoping your child will learn from the screen time they have then one rule of thumb is that on average children can concentrate for 5 minutes per year of their life (i.e. 15 minutes at age 3)." Age 1+ How long: 1 hour per day Dr Gummer says: "For younger children we feel that around 1 hour per day is a sensible limit to aim for on a regular weekday. "Once you add together time on mobile devices, TV, computers and other devices with screens this may not seem like much (and remember children may get screen time at school)." Age 2+ How long: 2 hour per day Dr Gummer says: "Various sources including the American Academy of Paediatrics recommend no more than 2 hours per day (for children aged 2 and over)." Children of all ages Over two hours a day is excessive usage Dr Gummer says: "A recent study saw some detrimental effects in teenagers that used more than 3 hours per day of screen time and consider this 'excessive usage' Up until recently, the three-year-old would have her breakfast with a show in background on the telly. The tantrums, she went on to add, have also practically vanished and are now ''non-existent''. ''I thought she's gonna go mad - but no, she hasn't. She's asked me once or twice.'' Kirstie said: ''I ain't saying no screen time ever again - I'm thinking maybe it needs to be like a treat and not an everyday thing. ''And when she does get it, it's limited. ''I ain't judging if you use screen time, I'm really, really not. I'm not one of these people who are going to judge you for having a tablet or doing screen time. ''But I'm saying if you're struggling with your toddlers behaviour, try and cut out some screen time and see what happens.'' Fellow parents share their experience Since being uploaded on the platform, the clip has racked up more than a whopping 75k views in just five days. Dozens of parents flooded to comments to share their experience - and it seemed that many of them agreed. One mum wrote: ''Needed this today! I did it so successfully for a week and then gave it back now it's going again her tantrums.'' Another chimed in: ''I'm on day 3 of no screen time with my 3 year old. Massive changes. A lot more calmer. Less tantrums and not speaking to me like a teenager.'' ''Honestly this makes me so relieved that I'm doing the right thing!'' a mum said.
