As a follow-up to its immensely popular Light Therapy Acne Mask, [Neutrogena](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adapalene-acne-treatment) is releasing the Light Therapy Acne Spot Treatment, which is a handheld device that boasts a form like a pen.

While many at-home DIY beauty devices—especially ones that include [light therapy features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumaglow-red-blue)—can be expensive, this one retails for just $20. The device uses both red and blue light to target acne-causing bacteria that forms under the skin and reduce inflammation.

Unlike many [spot acne treatments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sulfur-spot-treatments), this one is portable and promises to leave behind no mess or residue. Best of all, the UV- and chemical-free acne treatment device only requires a few minutes to get to work, and can be used multiple times per day for best results.
