Imagine, for a moment, the scariest thing you could ever see upon waking up and opening your eyes in the middle of the night.
Is it…someone wearing a terrifying light face mask sitting next to your bed?
If so, you should probably stay away from Jessica Origliasso, one half of the twins that make up Aussie pop duo The Veronicas.
Jess posted a video to her Instagram story featuring her wearing the LED light facial mask, adding that she wears it “when Lisa sleeps”.
Jess admitted that she was looking forward to scaring her twin sister, writing, "She is going to be terrified when she wakes up hahaha."

Horrifying masks aside, what exactly does an LED light mask do, you ask?

The treatment has benefits for skin of all ages and can be used to treat everything from acne, skin tone, texture, fine lines and can even help heal wounds.
It has benefits for skin of all ages and, depending on the LED light colour and frequency, can be used to treat everything from acne, skin tone, texture, fine lines and help wound healing.
So, she may look terrifying, but at least there's a good reason Jess is wearing the freaky mask.
