I don’t know if it was the changing weather or the added stress of world events…whatever it was, wreaked havoc on my skin. I’d been experiencing increased acne and redness which stressed me out even more. This seemed like the perfect time for me to try my hand LED light therapy.

I also find the process very calming and stress relieving. Read more
