Who is U Beauty?
U Beauty is a skincare brand founded in 2019 by Tina Chen Craig and Katie Borghese. The brand uses SIREN Capsule technology to revolutionise the way ingredients interact with your skin and to ensure we get the best results and optimum benefit of each product. All of U Beauty's products are made in Italy.
If you're from the US and place an order on U Beauty's website, the brand will donate 1% of the purchase to an impactful non-profit charity of the customer's choice.
Is U Beauty a cruelty-free brand?
Yes! U Beauty's products are not tested on animals. The brand is also Butterfly Mark Certified, which means that the brand is completely committed to reducing its environmental impact and improving social conditions.
Let's discuss the U Beauty products I've been using.
I've been using these products for the last few weeks:
- The Sculpt Arm Compound
- The U Beauty Duo
- The Sculpt Neck & Decolleté Concentrate
The Sculpt Arm Compound
This *specially formulated cream is designed to visibly tighten and tone loose skin around the arms. The compound features a revolutionary dynamic concentrate containing SIREN capsules. These provide fast-acting, tightening and contoured results in the areas that need it the most. This compound contains ingredients which include marine extract, probiotics and antioxidants.
To apply the cream, simply rub it in upward circular motions all over your arms. Take more time to massage the cream in the areas where sagging skin is present. You can use this morning and at night.
Since using this cream, my arms have more firmness to them, and they feel super smooth after using the cream. As I don't have much sagging skin on the arms, I can't tell you if it works in that aspect. But in terms of firmness, I've noticed a marked difference since I started using the cream! It's non-sticky and absorbs quickly.
The U Beauty Duo
Best used together, the U Beauty duo of the *Resurfacing Compound and the Super Hydrator, when combined, give you dewy, glass-like skin. These are two fantastic inclusions to any skincare routine.
After cleansing, you apply 2-3 pumps of the Resurfacing Compound. Do not use too much product as it can cause pilling (when the product fails to absorb properly). This compound visibly brightens the skin, evens texture, minimises pores and improves the look of fine lines. Again, this product uses SIREN capsule technology to enhance the product. This cream is the complete multi-tasker! The compound contains antioxidants, stabilised Vitamin C and stabilised Vitamin E, amongst other hyrating ingredients.
Once the Resurfacing Compound has settled and dried onto your skin, apply the Super Hydrator to the skin to seal in the previous product to give your skin 48 hours of hydration. The Super Hydrator can be applied daily, though if you're looking for optimal hydration. This next-level moisturiser transports unique sizes of hyaluronic acid molecules deep into the skin for sustained hydration. This moisturiser contains ingredients which include purified oat extract, shea butter and avocado oil.
This duo is honestly something else. My skin feels so rejuvenated after using this little double act together. The beauty of these creams is that they can be used in your morning and/or evening skincare routine. I like to use this duo at night as it allows my skin to completely feel revitalised and reenergised before the next day.
You can buy these separately in bigger bottles. But I do like that you can have these 15ml bottles to try to see if they work for you.
The Sculpt Neck & Decolleté Concentrate
As we all know, the parts of the body that age first are the hands, neck and chest. Well, this neck and decolletage *concentrate cream conquers 2/3. This multi-level targeted treatment is formulated to help contour the skin on the neck, chest and jawline for comprehensive age-defying results. This cream aims to give the skin firmness and smoothness. With consistent use, the skin will appear smoother, look more refined and improve fine lines.
Apply this morning and evening to clean, dry skin, massaging gently in an upward motion from the chest to the jawline.
When I first started using this, after a couple of applications, I started to notice a difference. It's allowed my skin to feel smoother and smooth out these small fine lines that have started to appear. Its non-sticky formula absorbs quickly, and it really works!
The big question is...would I recommend U Beauty?
Absolutely, I would! If you can afford to splurge on some luxury skincare, this brand is for you! The prices aren't very low, but if you buy the smaller bottles, they do last a while, and you can still get really great results. If I had to pick a favourite of these U Beauty products I've tried, I would say the U Beauty Duo. I love them all, but the Resurfacing Compound and the Super Hydrator are a great pair to add to my skincare routine. My skin feels so clean and replenished after using these together.
The technology that goes into these products is astounding. U Beauty has really gone above and beyond to ensure that their products really give us the results we need. This brand proves that skincare and science go hand in hand.
There are other products I would love to buy in the future, they are:
- *The Return Eye Concentrate - an eye cream which eliminates signs of ageing around the eyes.
- *The Plasma Lip Compound - a treatment that contours and plumps the lips and also comes in different shades.
- *The Super Tinted Hydrator - a tinted moisturiser that gives you luminous skin to give you that natural makeup look.
As I said, U Beauty is a fantastic, science-led, adaptive skincare brand that has really revolutionised the premise of skincare technology.

The CurrentBody LED Mask Series 2 has been an absolute game-changer for my skin since I started using it nearly two years ago. I've told people until I'm blue in the face how much I love it and how it's given my skin the TLC it needs. It is amazing that lying down in bed while wearing an LED mask for 10 minutes, 3 times a week, can give my skin a complete glow-up. But honestly, it's true. I just love using it and would recommend the red light therapy mask to everyone.
For those who are not aware of CurrentBody...
CurrentBody is a brand that has completely revolutionised skincare and sells the most innovative skincare devices, from an LED Hair Growth Helmet to the viral LED Mask loved worldwide by doctors and celebrities alike. The brand really understands what your skin and hair need and how improve it safely and effectively. From redness to pigmentation to acne to wrinkles, there is definitely a CurrentBody device that has you covered for any skin or hair issue.
Now you know about CurrentBody, let me explain what LED Light therapy is...
LED Light Therapy/Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps promote collagen, even skin tone and brighten the skin. It also has anti-ageing benefits and can help to reduce inflammation.
LED Light therapy is a painless treatment and is completely safe. CurrentBody is FDA-approved, so their devices are guaranteed safe to use at home and won't cause any damage to your skin whatsoever.
Red Light Therapy deals with skin issues such as:
- Dark under-eye circles
- Pigmentation
- Redness
- Wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone
- Dullness
There's not a skin complaint that red light therapy can't treat!
Let me share a quick summary of the CurrentBody LED Mask Series 2:
The CurrentBody *LED Mask Series 2 is a mask you use 3-5 times a week for 10 minutes per treatment. The mask itself has 236 LED bulbs across 3 clinically proven wavelengths to help with anti-ageing. They include:
- Red (633nm)
- Near-infrared (830m)
- Deep near-infrared (1072nm)
Each wavelength penetrates to different depths in the skin for different effects. Each of them combines to give you maximum results. Here's a chart to inform you of how each wavelength benefits the skin:
In 8 weeks, the CurrentBody LED Mask Series 2 has proven to:
- Reduce wrinkles and lines by 30%
- Increase plumpness by 57%
- Boost brightness by 27%
- Reduce redness by 19%
You can achieve all of this with a 10-minute treatment a few times a week.
Read my full, in-depth review of the CurrentBody LED Mask Series 2.
What makes CurrentBody's LED mask so different from other LED masks on the market?
This mask is made of flexible silicone and is not only comfortable to wear, but it also sits directly against the skin. Other masks sit up to 2cm away, meaning they're not as effective as CurrentBody's mask.
The unique design of the mask means you get full-face coverage, including the chin area. No padding or cooling pads are limiting the results you'll get.
The mask is FDA-approved and is also Veritace safety approved.
So, is the CurrentBody LED Series 2 Mask safe for the skin?
Absolutely! Like anyone looking to buy a new skincare device, I always like to read the reviews of other consumers, but most importantly, check if the product is safe and has passed all safety regulations. With CurrentBody, they use Veritace to ensure each mask goes through rigorous testing to ensure you receive maximum results on your skin.
Veritace test each LED bulb and measure its precision. They select only those that meet their exact standards. Veritace does not settle for less! Every mask that is made goes through a final round of precision testing, measuring the device for precision, power and consistency. Only devices that meet Veritace's high standards earn the Veritace approval and certification.
Here's the essential bit. When you buy a CurrentBody device, inside the box, there will be an envelope on the back of the box lid. Inside that, there is a Veritace card, which kind of looks like a credit card. When you tap the card with your phone, a link will appear for you to tap, and you will then see the results from your individual mask's testing.
CurrentBody puts your skin first in terms of treatment and safety. The mask pretty much does everything for you; all you have to do is kick back and relax. I love that the mask just slots in nicely with routine, and there's no downtime afterwards.
Now that I have seen results from consistent use, I thought there was no way to improve upon the results I've already achieved.
That was until I started using CurrentBody's Green Tea Serum with the LED mask.
What is CurrentBody Green Tea Serum?
CurrentBody's *Green Tea serum is designed to boost the benefits of the LED mask. The serum is the perfect compliment for the Series 2 masks. You can also use it with any LED face mask and the Neck & Decolletage mask.
The serum has anti-ageing antioxidants that reduce wrinkles for a younger, fresher-looking complexion.
Is the CurrentBody Green Tea Serum vegan?
Yes! The Green Tea Serum is vegan and cruelty-free. It contains ingredients including:
- Organic green tea - to help with anti-ageing
- Quinoa peptides - to support the skin's healthy barrier
- Vitamin C - delivers UV light protection while fighting free radical damage
- Pineapple extract - to help exfoliate and brighten the skin
The serum also contains 3-in-1 triple hyaluronic acid that holds up to 1000 times its weight in water for long-lasting hydration and glow.
How do I apply the Green Tea Serum?
It's very simple to use. You just need to apply a few drops to clean, dry skin and as soon as your skin absorbs the serum, put on your chosen LED mask and you're good to go!
Can I still use the serum even if I don't have a CurrentBody LED device?
Firstly, why don't you have a CurrentBody device?! Only kidding! But seriously, of course you can use it without needing a CurrentBody LED Mask or device! You can easily slot it into your current skincare routine. Just apply like any other serum, in-between cleansing and before moisturising.
What is special about the CurrentBody green tea serum compared to other serums?
This serum in particular helps you to achieve results 10x faster from your CurrentBody LED Mask! The serum prepares the skin better to absorb and utilise the LED light, which in turn provides faster results.
A clinical study revealed that green tea's antioxidants help to combat oxidative stress.
There are not any other LED masks that offer an anti-ageing serum to help boost results from their masks. CurrentBody have created a winning formula to combat ageing to help achieve brighter, smoother, plumper and healthier skin, with or without an LED mask.
Since using the serum with my LED masks, I have noticed a major difference in the brightness and plumpness of my skin. My skin has a more supple and soft feel to it. I love how a few drops of serum can help the LED mask bulbs do an even better job than it's already doing.
Here is a photo of before and after using the LED mask with the green tea serum:
