Those who deal with regular breakouts are often looking to try the newest and most unique product that claims to relieve them of the stress and self-esteem issues that acne can cause, and [Neutrogena's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adapalene-acne-treatment) [Light Therapy Acne Mask](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-therapy-mask) is one such product.

The device comes in the shape of a mask that covers users' faces, except for their eyes. It releases both [blue and red lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumaglow-red-blue) -- with the former tackling and reducing acne-causing bacteria, and the latter reducing inflammation in current breakouts.
